Episode How Chips Are Using On-Chip Photonic Transceivers for Ultra-Fast Data
Episode 101 of The Hardware Podcast explores the cutting-edge integration of photonic transceivers directly onto silicon chips, bypassing traditional copper interconnects. Lucas and Luna break down the physics of silicon photonics, the manufacturing challenges at TSMC and Intel, and real-world applications from data centers to autonomous vehicles. They discuss the role of companies like Ayar Labs in pushing optical I/O into production, and how this shift could reshape bandwidth, latency, and power efficiency in computing. A concrete look at a technology poised to change how chips talk to each other.
