Why chiplets will transform electronic system design
By Designing Electronics North America
The transition to chiplets is a seismic shift that will send shockwaves throughout the industry.
Highly integrated monolithic semiconductor devices have provided a stable foundation for rapid innovation in the electronics industry for many decades now. However, that foundation is starting to show signs of cracking as a new wave of chiplet- based devices begins to take hold. Understanding the significance and implications of chiplets will be critical for successful design development in the future, particularly for the rapidly-growing edge IoT and AI/ML markets.
How chiplets came to be
The use of chiplets can be traced back to the growing complexity of electronic systems. To support this tendency, monolithic semiconductors have correspondingly become more complex, with the largest devices being built today incorporating more than 100 billion transistors. However, building ever larger and more complicated devices creates a host of issues including long design and verification times, high development costs, high device costs, and thermal management problems. A powerful solution to that problem is to modularize the design, development, and production of devices by means of chiplets.
