① SA Source

Context Before

Within each tray or node, all 16 LPUs are connected to each other in an all-to-all mesh. Each LPU module connects to the 15 other LPUs within the node with 4x100G of C2C bandwidth. Note that this ‘C2C’ is not related to NVLink, but Groq’s own scaleup fabric.

Evidence

These connections are all via PCB trace, which necessitates an extremely high spec PCB to support this routing density.

Context After

This is why the belly-to-belly layout is used: it reduces the ‘X’ and ‘Y’ distance between all the LPUs and instead have routing go in the ‘Z’ dimension.

② Atomic Claim

這些連線全部走 PCB trace,因此需要極高規格的 PCB 才能支撐這種 routing density。
