Cost Characteristics of the 2.5D Chiplet-Based SiP System
By Technical Paper Link - 08 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "Cost-Aware Exploration for Chiplet-Based Architecture with Advanced Packaging Technologies" was published by researchers at UCSB, University of California, Santa Barbara. Abstract: "The chiplet-based System-in-Package~(SiP) technology enables more design flexibility via various inter-chiplet connection and heterogeneous integration. However, it is not known how to ... » read more

Raising IP Integration Up A Level
By Brian Bailey - 27 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

An increase in the number and complexity of IP blocks, coupled with changing architectures and design concerns, are driving up the need for new tools that can enable, automate, and optimize integration in advanced chips and packages. Power, security, verification and a host of other issues are cross-cutting concerns, and they make pure hierarchical approaches difficult. Adding to future comp... » read more

Next Generation Chip Embedding Technology For High Efficiency Power Modules and Power SiPs
By ASE - 15 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Cost, performance, and package size are some of the key drivers required in the next generation of package interconnect and package structure evolution. Embedding active die into substrates was mainly driven by package miniaturization for communication handheld devices. However, in the case of power modules, miniaturization is not the only driver that enhances the need for embedded die substrat... » read more

What Future Processors Will Look Like
By Ed Sperling - 13 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Mark Papermaster, CTO at AMD, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about architectural changes that are required as the benefits of scaling decrease, including chiplets, new standards for heterogeneous integration, and different types of memory. What follows are excerpts of that conversation. SE: What does a processor look like in five years? Is it a bunch of chips in a package? I... » read more

Data Center Architectures In Flux
By Ann Mutschler - 24 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Data center architectures are becoming increasingly customized and heterogeneous, shifting from processors made by a single vendor to a mix of processors and accelerators made by multiple vendors — including system companies' own design teams. Hyperscaler data centers have been migrating toward increasingly heterogeneous architectures for the past half decade or so, spurred by the rising c... » read more

Unintended Coupling Issues Grow
By Brian Bailey - 24 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

The number of indirect and often unexpected ways in which one design element may be affected by another is growing, making it more difficult to ensure a chip — or multiple chips in a package — will perform reliably. Long gone are the days when the only way that one part of a circuit could influence another was by an intended wire connecting them. As geometries get smaller, frequencies go... » read more

RF To mmWave Design For Systems
By Cadence - 23 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

RF-enabled next-generation communication systems and connected devices are differentiated by their performance, size, and cost. Traditionally, custom proprietary IC designs, leveraging the latest advanced-node technology, were developed to meet these product requirements. Increasingly these challenges are being met by moving beyond single IC solutions. Today’s electronic systems often integra... » read more

Thermal Management Implications For Heterogeneous Integrated Packaging
By Cameron Nelson - 17 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 1

As the semiconductor industry reaches lower process nodes, silicon designers struggle to have Moore's Law produce the results achieved in earlier generations. Increasing the die size in a monolithic system on chip (SoC) designs is no longer economically viable. The breakdown of monolithic SoCs into specialized chips, referred to as chiplets, presents significant benefits in terms of cost, yield... » read more

Large-Field, Fine-Resolution Lithography Enables Next-Generation Panel-Level Packaging
By Onto Innovation - 11 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

The lithography challenge for large heterogeneous integration is the limited size of the exposure field (typically 60mm x 60mm or less) for most currently available lithography systems. Fine resolution and a large field size provide the user with the opportunity to increase the package size beyond 150mm x 150mm and maintain high throughput. This new capability has the potential to pave the ... » read more

Challenges With Stacking Memory On Logic
By Ed Sperling - 22 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 1

Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss the changes in design tools and methodologies needed for 3D-ICs, with Sooyong Kim, director and product specialist for 3D-IC at Ansys; Kenneth Larsen, product marketing director at Synopsys; Tony Mastroianni, advanced packaging solutions director at Siemens EDA; and Vinay Patwardhan, product management group director at Cadence... » read more
