About this episode
Austin Lyons and Vik Sekar host a micro-explainer on the two competing micro-emitter technologies for AI interconnects: microLEDs and microVCSELs. They break down Credo's surprising pivot at OCP from its microLED acquisition to a microVCSEL product, revealing the core physics that give microVCSELs superior speed and reach. The episode establishes the technical reasons why the industry is converging on microVCSELs for the critical 5-50 meter gap in AI data centers. This episode is presented by...
