What Works Best For Chiplets
Not all chiplets are interchangeable, and options will be limited.
By Anne Meixner, SemiEngineering (April 18, 2024)
The semiconductor industry is just beginning to migrate from proprietary chiplet-based systems to a more open chiplet ecosystem, in which chiplets fabricated by different companies of various technologies and device nodes can be integrated in a single package with acceptable yield.
To make this work as expected, the chip industry will have to solve a variety of well-documented technical and business issues, and it will have to rein in some of the grander visions of what’s possible — at least initially. The basic challenge is aligning domain-specific performance demands of end systems, which contain a growing number of chiplets, with the assembly and packaging capabilities and methodologies of IDMs, foundries, and OSATs. This includes the creation of assembly development kits (ADKs) that are roughly the equivalent of process development kits (PDKs), which today are codified with manufacturing specifications.
