Optical interconnect topologies may be provided using microLEDs. The topologies may interconnect ICs. The optical interconnect topologies may be used in some instances in place of electrical busses.

Systems using microLED-based interconnects

An LED may have structures optimized for speed of operation of the LED. The LED may be a microLED. The LED may have a p-doped region with one or more quantum wells instead of an intrinsic region. The LED may have etched vias therethrough.

High speed and multi-contact LEDs for data communication

Systems using fan-in and fan-out microLED-based interconnects

A microLED based optical chip-to-chip interconnect may optically couple chips in a variety of ways. The microLEDs may be positioned within a waveguide, and the interconnects may be arranged as direct connections, in bus topologies, or as repeaters.

Packaging for microLEDs for chip to chip communication

MicroLEDs may be used for short-range optical communications. Signal equalization may be used to decrease distortion in transmitted and/or received information, including with the use of multi-level modulation formats.

Optical transceiver design for short distance communication systems based on microLEDs

An LED may include a third contact, for example to increase speed of operation of the LED. The LED with the third contact may be used in an optical communication system, for example a chip-to-chip optical interconnect.
