The invention discloses a parallel access memory
system based on optical
interconnection and mainly solves that problems that according to an existing
electric bus memory
system, the access bandwidth is small, access
delay is large, area occupation is large, and board-level circuit
data rate is low. The
system comprises an optical transmitting layer (101) and memory
layers (103). The optical transmitting layer is provided with optical emitters,
optical receivers, U-shaped waveguides and
broadband micro rings. The optical emitters and the
optical receivers are located in the middle of the optical transmitting layer in two rows, and the U-shaped waveguides are arrayed around a reference position. Each memory layer is provided with memory units (104) distributed and arrayed in a grid type, and the memory units in a same rank are perpendicularly distributed on different memory
layers. The parallel access performance of the memory system is improved, the
data access bandwidth and the
data rate are increased, the access
delay is reduced, the area occupation of the memory system on a circuit board is reduced, and the memory system can be adaptive to
optical communication between a processor core and the memory system.
