  • Publication number: 20250046775
    Abstract: Described herein is a packaging approach that employs a remapping layer to maintain compatibility to different types of electronic chips while allowing chip designers to standardize the layout of the electrical interface of a photonic interposer. A remapping layer remaps the electrical interface of an electronic chip to the electrical interface of a photonic interposer. Remapping layers may be implemented in various ways, including for example as monolithic electronic interposers and/or as individual remapping chips. In some embodiments, to reduce manufacturing costs, remapping layers may be implemented using passive electronics (without transistors). Because remapping layers are significantly less costly to manufacture than photonic interposers, shifting the need to provide ad hoc electrical interfaces from the photonic interposer to the remapping layer enhances the applicability of photonic interposers in computational, telecom and datacom settings.
