Advanced Packaging: Enabling Moore’s Law’s Next Frontier Through Heterogeneous integration

With chiplet architectures becoming mainstream, and recognized as fundamental to enabling the continued economically viable growth of power efficient computing, advanced package architectures are becoming more critical to enabling Moore’s Law’s next frontier through heterogeneous integration. In this talk, we will cover the advanced package architectures being enabled by AMD to enable PPAC (power, performance, area and cost) improvements as well as enable heterogeneous architectures. AMD’s 3D V-Cache architecture and Elevated Fan out bridge (EFB) technology will be discussed in detail, and some of the future integrated architectures will also be previewed.
