Ecosystem Driven Standards Working Groups  
Ecosystem Driven Standards are not only are about driving standards at your company's level, but understanding one level up and one level down in the supply chain for more satisfied customers and suppliers.  If you do not see your company as a "driver", you still want to make sure your standards needs are in the mix so you can better understand and contribute to what is possible or what is not possible. 
 

Co-Packaged Optics ​(CPO) 

​

Focus:

• Lasers will be built into every ASIC chip and fibers or optical waveguides will carry the signal between chips. 

• Thermally decouple the ASIC from the transceiver

• There are no currently standards for NPO 

• This would be utilized in data center and HPC environments

​

Ecosystem Standards Drive:

• Reduction in the amount of power necessary for data centers and HPCs

• Demonstrations utilizing the current model of ecosystem (stand alone components assembled by OSATs)

• White papers, best design practice documents or industry cohesive standards​
