Interposer has emerged as a promising alternative of multiple-die integration to provide high-bandwidth transmission and smaller power consumption. However, few works study the design methodology to utilize interposer advantages and explore the relationship among different dies. As TSMC's Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate (CoWoS™) technology offered as an enabling solution to system integration, this paper presents complete design methodology validated by CoWoS™ to implement an interposer design. Along with the introduced methodology, three critical stages are further discussed: design planning, interposer testing, and RC extraction. With unified bump planning and routing co-design, inter-die wirelength and routability are greatly improved. An efficient testing scheme is introduced to adopt probe-pads for enabling interposer testability, and a general RC extraction modeling is discussed to help commercial tools capture the coupling between metal wires in the interposer. We develop an industrial test chip by the methodology, and the silicon result reveals that our methodology is compatible with commercial tools and achieves high correlation in interposer integration. |
