Abstract
With the considerable work currently underway to apply optical interconnections within electronic systems, 1I it is of interest to examine how the system architecture impacts potential applications. The use of optical interconnections is very application specific, thus far, primarily being used to relieve pin-out constraints within high speed systems.[21 131 These very same high performance systems are sensitive to EMI making optical interconnections even more attractive. Another proposed application is for distribution of system clock signals within synchronous systems. [4]
