PRESENTATION
Design Enablement of a Heterogeneously Integrated Electronic-Photonic System in a Package
Photonic integrated circuits are becoming an integral part of package-level semiconductor systems. A range of electronic-photonic integration strategies is being explored to serve diverse functionalities and markets. Assembly and packaging technologies developed enable dense integration of photonics, electronics, and micro-optics in a small form factor on a common substrate, while supporting efficient scaling for volume production environments. Along with these, test processes and tools for functional verification of the final packages and validation of subsequent assembly steps are being established. Convergence with existing semiconductor standards and the enablement of efficient design are essential for a wide adoption of such heterogeneous technologies. An example of a design flow featuring a heterogeneous process design kit created for the PhotonicLEAP glass-based electronic-photonic packaging technology, compliant with a JEDEC standard, will be demonstrated.

PITC
Sylwester Latkowski obtained M.Sc. and Eng. degrees in optoelectronics and technical physics from the West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin, Poland, and a PhD in photonics at Dublin City University, Ireland. He followed his research interests in optoelectronics and integrated photonics with the Photonic Integration group at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), the Netherlands. He shares his university duties with the position of scientific director at the Photonic Integration Technology Center. Sylwester leads a work package on Reliability and Test in PIXEurope, the photonic pilot line, as a part of the European Chips Act. (you can cut here if too long) His professional activities include an active role in road-mapping initiatives for integrated photonics and microelectronics, IPSR-I, and HIR. He is a chair and co-chair of the electronic-photonic test Technical Working Group of the IPSR-I. Sylwester is representing PITC in the steering committee of the JePPIX. He is a senior member of the IEEE, IEEE Photonics Society, and a voting member of the IEEE Standards Association Photonic Standards Committee. He is chairing a working group for the standardization of electronic-photonic design automation under IEEE SA. He serves as a Senior Editor in the IEEE Photonics Journal. He has authored and co-authored more than 135 publications in international scientific journals and conference proceedings.
