Enabling the next phase of Moore’s Law through optical connectivity
Ayar Labs solves the I/O bandwidth and power bottlenecks by moving data using light.
Ayar Labs is disrupting the traditional performance, cost, and efficiency curves of the semiconductor and computing industries by delivering a 1000x improvement in interconnect bandwidth density at 10x lower power. We use standard CMOS processing to develop high-speed, high-density, low-power optical interconnect “chiplets” and lasers to replace traditional electrical I/O.
