Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor laser technology, specifically to a photoelectric co-packaging CPO structure based on the synergy of four domains: optical, electrical, thermal, and reliability. Background Technology

[0002] With the explosive growth in computing power demands for training and inference of large artificial intelligence (AI) models, the throughput of data center switching chips is evolving towards higher speeds. Co-packaged optical (CPO) technology, by directly integrating the optical engine with the switching ASIC, has become a key solution to address the bottleneck of high-speed data transmission. Industry forecasts predict that the CPO market will grow from $46 million in 2024 to $8.1 billion in 2030, with 2025 marking its commercialization debut. Leading companies such as TSMC, Broadcom, and NVIDIA have already begun mass production.

[0003] However, existing CPO technologies suffer from three fragmented design paradigms, which prevent optimal system performance:

[0004] 1. Separation of optical and electric domains

[0005] In existing solutions, the design of the light source (ELS or on-chip laser) and the RF interconnect design are completed independently by different teams. Light source engineers focus on power and linewidth, while RF engineers focus on bandwidth and loss, resulting in a lack of collaborative optimization between the two. The result is either excessive power margin in the light source design (wasting power) or insufficient RF bandwidth (limiting data rate increases).

[0006] 2. Separation of electric and thermal domains

[0007] High-frequency interconnect designs (TSV+CPW) typically assume a constant ambient temperature and do not consider the impact of temperature fluctuations caused by dynamic power consumption changes in the ASIC on signal integrity. In actual testing, the junction temperature of the ASIC under full load can reach over 100°C, causing a 5-10% drift in the characteristic impedance of the CPW, a 3-5 dB deterioration in S11, and eye diagram closure.

[0008] 3. Separation of thermal domain and reliability domain

[0009] The current heat dissipation design only focuses on "cooling down" and does not consider the accelerating effect of temperature cycling on laser lifespan. For every 10°C increase in laser junction temperature, the MTBF is halved. Although existing microfluidic cooling can reduce the average temperature, the fatigue damage caused by temperature fluctuations (ΔT) is not quantitatively managed.

[0010] Those skilled in the art have long been limited by a "divide and conquer" engineering mindset, believing that problems in the optical, electrical, thermal, and reliability domains should be solved independently by their respective specialized teams. This technical bias stems from the following reasons:

[0011] Optical communication engineers focus on modulation formats, wavelength stability, and optical power budgets;

[0012] RF engineers focus on S-parameters, eye diagrams, and bit error rate;

[0013] Thermal management engineers focus on thermal resistance, temperature rise, and heat dissipation efficiency;

[0014] Reliability engineers focus on accelerating aging tests and life prediction.

[0015] Different professional fields use different simulation tools (OptiSystem, ADS, COMSOL, Weibull++) and different optimization objective functions, lacking a unified physical model and collaborative optimization framework. This "technical bias" has resulted in existing CPO schemes being single-domain optimizations, failing to recognize the deep coupling effects between the four domains.

[0016] Specifically, the following technical biases exist in this field:

[0017] 1. Broadcom's CPO solution (Bailly platform, integrated into the Tomahawk 5 switch chip) only optimizes the optical power output of the ELS and the integration of the silicon photonics engine, without considering its coupling with the ASIC's thermal dissipation. When the ASIC power consumption increases from 50% to 100%, thermal crosstalk between the ELS and the ASIC causes a laser wavelength drift of ±50 pm, resulting in a 2-3 order of magnitude deterioration in the bit error rate.

[0018] 2. imec's TSV solution (EP3892147A1, application date March 15, 2021) only optimizes the RF bandwidth (>110GHz) and assumes a constant ambient temperature. In actual testing, the CPW characteristic impedance drifted by 8% under full ASIC load, S11 deteriorated by 4.5dB, and the eye diagram opening decreased from 0.35UI to 0.26UI.

[0019] 3. IBM's microfluidic solution (US2020 / 0389634A1, application date June 18, 2020) only optimizes heat dissipation efficiency (>500W / cm²). 2 The effect of temperature cycling on laser lifespan was not considered. Temperature cycling ΔT = 40℃ (1 cycle / day) caused the laser MTBF to decrease from 30,000h to 15,000h.

[0020] 4. Inphi's on-chip SOA solution (US2019 / 0319130A1, application date April 10, 2019) only optimizes optical power compensation and adopts a fixed gain mode. When the RF signal quality deteriorates, the SOA cannot adaptively adjust, resulting in wasted or insufficient optical power margin.

[0021] The above solutions are all optimal within their respective domains, but they fail to recognize the coupling effects between the four domains. For example, increased ASIC power consumption → increased temperature → CPW impedance drift → decreased RF signal quality → increased bit error rate → need to increase optical power margin to maintain signal-to-noise ratio → increased SOA power consumption → further increased temperature → formation of positive feedback. This cross-domain coupling effect cannot be identified and suppressed within the single-domain optimization framework.

[0022] Therefore, a long-standing technical bias exists in this field, namely, that optics, electricity, heat, and reliability are independent engineering problems that should be optimized separately. This bias leads to a lack of motivation among engineers to seek a unified, synergistic solution. Summary of the Invention

This invention, through optical domain adaptive power equalization, achieves a 40% increase in equivalent RF bandwidth when the optical power drops by 3dB, with only a 5% decrease in RF eye diagram opening (compared to a 25% decrease in traditional solutions).

[0219] Example 2: Detailed Explanation of the MPC Algorithm

[0220] (1) Physical origin of state-space model

[0221] Matrices A, B, and E in the above state-space model are obtained based on the physical parameters of the OIC and ASIC through the following steps:

[0222] Step 1: Establish a three-dimensional multiphysics coupled finite element model

[0223] A three-dimensional thermo-electric-optical coupling model of OIC and ASIC was created using COMSOL Multiphysics software:

[0224] Thermal conductivity module: Includes the thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity of materials such as silicon substrate (k=156W / m·K), copper interconnect (k=400W / m·K), and polyimide (k=0.1W / m·K);

[0225] Electromagnetic module: includes the distributed resistance R', distributed inductance L', distributed capacitance C', and distributed conductance G' of the CPW transmission line, as well as the parasitic capacitance and inductance of the TSV;

[0226] Optical module: includes the Pockels effect of MZM, the gain saturation characteristics of SOA, and the transmission loss of waveguide;

[0227] Boundary conditions: ASIC power consumption 100W-300W (dynamically changing), ambient temperature 20℃-45℃, coolant flow rate 10-500mL / min.

[0228] Step 2: Parameter Scanning and System Identification

[0229] Perform parameter scanning at typical operating points:

[0230] ASIC power consumption: 100W, 150W, 200W, 250W, 300W;

[0231] Ambient temperature: 20℃, 25℃, 30℃, 35℃, 40℃, 45℃;

[0232] Coolant flow rate: 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 mL / min;

[0233] SOA gain: 0, 5, 10, 15 dB;

[0234] TS-ICN parameters: C=0.3-0.7pF, L=0.3-0.7nH.

[0235] For each operating point, record the steady-state and transient responses:

[0236] Optical power Pᵢ (MPD-array reading);

[0237] CPW temperature T_CPW (Pt sensor reading);

[0241] Step 3: Reduce the order of the finite element model

[0242] The intrinsic orthogonal decomposition (POD) method is used to reduce the high-dimensional finite element model to a low-dimensional state-space model:

[0243] Extract the top K dominant intrinsic modes (K=10-20, cumulative energy percentage>99%).

[0244] Project the full-order model onto the subspace spanned by the dominant mode;

[0248] min||y_FEM y_model|| 2

[0249] Where y_FEM is the output of the finite element simulation, and y_model is the output of the state space model prediction.

[0250] The fitted state-space matrix is ​​stored in the FPGA's on-chip SRAM and updated in real time during operation using recursive least squares (RLS) or an extended Kalman filter (EKF), with an update cycle of approximately 1 second every 1000 control cycles. The matrix elements are dynamically adjusted according to the operating states of the OIC and ASIC to ensure model accuracy.

[0264] TS-ICN parameter weights: r X =0.5 (to avoid drastic changes in reactance value);

[0265] Pump speed weight: r Q =0.1 (allows for relatively rapid changes in pump speed);

[0266] S is the control rate of change weight matrix (diagonal matrix):

[0267] s G =0.5, s X =0.3, s Q =0.1 (to prevent sudden changes in control actions);

[0274] st x(k+1) = Ax(k) + Bu(k) + Ew(k), k=t, ..., t+N-1

[0275] x_min ≤ x(k) ≤ x_max

[0276] u_min ≤ u(k) ≤ u_max

[0277] Δu_min ≤ Δu(k) ≤ Δu_max

[0278] 3. Obtain the optimal control sequence u*(t), u*(t+1), ..., u*(t+N-1);

[0279] 4. Only the first control action u*(t) is executed;

[0280] 5. In the next period t+Δt, remeasure the state and repeat steps 1-4.

[0282] Interior point method or active set method;

[0283] Computation time < 100μs (FPGA parallel acceleration, prediction time domain N=10, state dimension M+4=12).

[0284] Convergence accuracy: rate of change of objective function < 0.01%.

[0285] (4) Feedback correction

[0286] The deviation between the actual state and the model's predicted state is estimated using a Kalman filter:

[0287] Prediction steps:

[0288] ẋ(k+1|k) = Ax(k|k) + Bu(k) + Ew(k)

[0289] P(k+1|k) = AP(k|k)Aᵀ + Q_w

[0290] Update steps:

[0291] K(k+1) = P(k+1|k)Cᵀ[CP(k+1|k)Cᵀ + Q_v] -1

[0292] x(k+1|k+1) = ẋ(k+1|k) + K(k+1)[y(k+1) Cẋ(k+1|k)]

[0293] P(k+1|k+1) = [IK(k+1)C]P(k+1|k)

[0294] in:

[0295] K is the Kalman gain matrix;

[0296] y(k+1) represents the actual measured value (MPD-array optical power and temperature sensor readings).

[0297] C is the observation matrix (selection matrix, which extracts measurable states from the state vector).

[0298] Q_w is the process noise covariance matrix;

[0299] Q_v is the measurement noise covariance matrix.

[0300] When the model bias exceeds a threshold (e.g., >5%), online model parameter identification and updating are triggered.

[0301] Recursive least squares (RLS) or extended Kalman filter (EKF) can be used.

[0302] Update the elements of matrices A, B, and E;

[0303] Update cycle: every 1000 control cycles (approximately 1 second).
