TSMC outlines Co Packaged Optics foundry roadmap
TSMC has detailed its co-packaged optics foundry roadmap, outlining how it plans to integrate optical interconnects directly with advanced chips. The article also compares approaches from Intel, Samsung, and GlobalFoundries. Co-packaged optics promise higher bandwidth and lower power consumption by placing optical engines close to switching silicon. Leading foundries are racing to define manufacturable platforms suitable for hyperscale data centers and AI infrastructure. These roadmaps could reshape future networking architectures, influencing switch designs, data center layouts, and vendor partnerships. Customers will watch maturity, cost, standardization efforts, and ecosystem support before committing to large deployments.
