- Nubis Communications has revealed its ambitions to be an optical input-output (I/O) solutions provider
- Its tiny 1.6-terabit optical engine measures 5mm x 7.5mm
- The optical engine has a power consumption of below 4 picojoule/bit (pJ/b) and a bandwidth density of 0.5 terabits per millimetre.
- “Future systems will be I/O with an ASIC dangling off it.”
Nubis Communications has ended its period of secrecy to unveil an optical engine targeted at systems with demanding data input-output requirements.
The start-up claims its optical engine delivers unmatched bandwidth density measured in terabits per millimetre (T/mm) and power consumption performance metrics.
“In the timeframe of founding the company [in 2020], it became obvious that the solution space [for our product] was machine learning-artificial intelligence,” says Dan Harding, the CEO of Nubis.
