SANTA CLARA, Calif. — During the 2004 Symposium on VLSI Technology in Honolulu, Intel Corp. is expected to unveil a technology that could push out the need for chip-to-chip optical interconnects to at least the 15-nm node.

Intel will present a paper at the meeting on Wednesday (June 16) describing a high-speed signaling technology based on a combination of copper interconnects and CMOS.

The chip-to-chip technology is a 130-nm, 8-Gbit/s source-synchronous I/O link. Using "inexpensive" digital logic circuits to overcome channel/circuit impairments, the technology also makes use of analog signal processing, digital adaptive control and built-in-self-test.
