Abstract

An electrical circuit package includes an electrical processing engine circuit configured to perform data processing; and one or more co-packaged coherent optical Input/Output (IO) modules interconnected to the electrical processing engine circuit, wherein the electrical processing engine circuit is configured to interface electrical data including an optical signal waveform representation to each of the one or more co-packaged coherent optical IO modules, and wherein the one or more co-packaged coherent optical IO modules are configured to coherently transmit and receive optical data based on the optical signal waveform representation. The electrical processing engine circuit can be configured to perform optical modulation and demodulation based on the optical signal waveform representation, in addition to the data processing.
