Integrated circuit with dielectric waveguide connector using photonic bandgap structure
Abstract:
An encapsulated integrated circuit package is provided that includes an integrated circuit (IC) die. A radio frequency (RF) circuit on the IC die is operable to send and/or receive an RF signal having a selected frequency. Encapsulation material encapsulates the IC die. A photonic waveguide couples to the RF circuit and extends to an external surface of the encapsulated IC. The photonic waveguide may be formed by a photonic bandgap structure within the encapsulation material. A socket may be included with the encapsulated package that is coupled to an end of the photonic waveguide opposite the RF circuit.
