The demand for higher performance, greater configurability, and more cost-effective solutions is pushing the industry toward heterogeneous integration and 3D integrated circuits (3D ICs). These solutions are no longer reserved for niche applications—they are rapidly becoming essential to mainstream semiconductor design.… Read More
Chiplet is a hot topic in the semiconductor world these days. So much so that if one hasn’t heard that term, the person must be living on a very isolated islet. Humor aside, products built using chiplets-based methodology have been in existence for at least some years now. Companies such as Intel, AMD, Apple and others have integrated… Read More
The emergence of 2.5D packaging technology for heterogeneous die integration offers significant benefits to system architects. Functional units may be implemented using discrete die – aka “chiplets” – which may be fabricated in different process nodes. The power, performance, and cost for each unit may be optimized separately.… Read More
