Abstract:
A yield recovery scheme for configuration memory of an IC device includes asserting an override configuration value on a bitline of memory cells of the configuration memory, where a data node of a faulty one of the memory cells is coupled to a node of configurable circuitry of the IC device, and asserting a wordline of the faulty memory cell while the override configuration value is asserted on the bitline to couple the bitline to the node of the configurable circuitry through the faulty memory cell (i.e., to force a state of the data node to the override configuration value). An identifier of the faulty memory cell may be stored on the IC device (e.g., E-fuses), and control circuitry of the IC device may retrieve the identifier to configure override circuitry of the IC device.
Abstract:
A universal interposer for an integrated circuit (IC) device has a body having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A first region is formed on a first side of the body along a first edge. The first region has first slots, each having an identical first bond pad layout. A second region is formed on the first side along a second edge, opposite the first edge. The second region has second slots having an identical second bond pad layout. A third region having third slots is formed on the first side between the first and second regions, each slot having an identical third bond pad layout. A pad density of the third bond pad layout is greater than the first bond pad layout. One of the third slots is coupled to contact pads disposed in a region not directly below any of the second slots.
