Nascent Chiplet Tech Gaining Attention In Defense and Commercial Industries
By Ben Miller - 30 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

The economic benefits derived from Moore's Law have changed, and not for the better. This shift – especially on the manufacturing side of system-on-chip (SoC) devices, has both the defense and commercial customers in the semiconductor industry wondering what will come next. One way to extend Moore's Law's cost, feature, and size benefits is with multi-chip technology, now commonly known as... » read more

3D Heterogenous Integration: Design And Verification Challenges
By Ansys - 08 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Next-generation semiconductor products increasingly rely on vertical integration technologies to drive system density, speed, and yield improvement. Due to the increased coupling effects across multiple physics, co-simulation and co-analysis of these phenomena are critical for a robust chip-package-system design. Advanced 2.5D/3D-IC systems are constructed with multiple dice, interposers, packa... » read more

Ensuring The Health And Reliability Of Multi-Die Systems
By Yervant Zorian - 26 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

From generative AI tools that rapidly produce chatbot responses to high-performance computing (HPC) applications enabling financial forecasting and weather modeling, it’s clear we’re in a whole new realm of processing power demand. Given these compute-intensive workloads, monolithic SoCs are no longer capable to meet today’s processing needs. Engineering ingenuity, however, has answered t... » read more

Rethinking Design, Workflow For 3D
By Karen Heyman - 26 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

In the 3D world, where NAND has hundreds of layers and packages come in intricate stacks, fresh graduates and veteran engineers alike are being confronted with design challenges that require a rethinking of both classic designs and traditional workflows, but without breaking the laws of physics. “There are pockets of things that have been on 3D for quite some time,” said Kenneth Larson, ... » read more
