Two Industry Leaders Undertook Daunting Advanced Technology Challenges
San Jose, California, Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alchip Technologies, Limited (“Alchip”) has revealed that it has optimized 3DIC designs by overcoming four critical challenges. The announcement came through a technical presentation at the 2024 TSMC Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) Ecosystem Forum.
The paper, “Efficient 3D Chiplet Stacking Using TSMC-SoIC®,” describes how Alchip used a third-party EDA tool to overcome four complex technical challenges.
In the paper, Erez Shaizaf, Alchip’s Chief Technical Officer, identifies three major barriers to 3DIC success: power delivery, dies electrical interconnect, and system-wide thermal challenges.
He points out that power delivery really encompasses three separate challenges: power integrity, power grid design (including through silicon via distribution), and power integrity simulation and sign-off.
Dies electrical interconnect are identified as low clock skew across dies, process variation immunity, noise immunity, data transmission across different power domains, inter-die setup/hold timing margin, PPA optimized IO cells for clock and data, and redundancy strategy.
The paper details thermal challenges as 3DIC thermal characterization covering increased power density, 3D non-uniform power mapping, 3D thermal crosstalk effects, package, and system cooling solution modeling.
“Without a doubt, TSMC’s 3D silicon stacking System-on-Integrated-Chips (SoIC) enables the next level of performance for data center chips, however, it poses new design challenges and considerations. Alchip has been collaborating for many years with its key EDA partner to accelerate multi-die designs. This paper clearly presents solutions for optimizing designs on TSMC-SoIC® technology, using third-party EDA tools and Alchip methodologies,” Shaizaf explained.
Alchip stated that it will also discuss the paper’s findings at other global TSMC OIP events in Japan, China, Taiwan, and Europe, from October to November 2024.
