Abstract

A 640Gb/s very advanced ATM switching system using 0.25um CMOS VLSI, 40 layer ceramic MCM and 10Gb/s, 8 wavelength 8$\times$8 optical WDM interconnection has been fabricated. To break though the interconnection bottleneck, optical WDM interconnection is used. It has 20Gb/s 8 wavelength 8$\times$8 interconnection capability. It realizes 640Gb/s interconnections within a very small size. Preliminary tests show that 800b1s ATM switch MCM and optical WDM interconnection technologies can be applied to future high speed broadband networks
