Abstract:Optical interconnects are expected to overcome the limitations imposed by electrical interconnects. For board-to-board and board-to-multiboard communication we have developed an optical backplane for applications in mobile systems. Compared to existing realizations it is compact, rugged and has the potential to be fabricated at low cost. The main features of the optical backplane in planar technology are free space expanded beam transmission between boards and backplane and guided wave transmission within the … Show more
