Speeding Up Die-To-Die Interconnectivity


Disaggregating SoCs, coupled with the need to process more data faster, is forcing engineering teams to rethink the electronic plumbing in a system. Wires don't shrink, and just cramming more wires or thicker wires into a package are not viable solutions. Kevin Donnelly, vice president of strategic marketing at Eliyan, talks about how to speed up data movement between chiplets with bi-direction... » read more
