摘要: A circuit arrangement and method in one aspect utilize thermal-only through vias, extending between the opposing faces of stacked semiconductor dies, to increase the thermal conductivity of a multi-layer semiconductor stack. The thermal vias are provided in addition to data-carrying through vias, which communicate data signals between circuit layers, and power-carrying through vias, which are coupled to a power distribution network for the circuit layers, such that the thermal conductivity is increased above that which may be provided by the data-carrying and power-carrying through vias in the stack. A circuit arrangement and method in another aspect organize the circuit layers in a multi-layer semiconductor stack based upon current density so as to reduce power distribution losses in the stack.

摘要: Mechanisms for providing an interconnect layer of a three-dimensional integrated circuit device having multiple independent and cooperative on-chip networks are provided. With regard to an apparatus implementing the interconnect layer, such an apparatus comprises a first integrated circuit layer comprising one or more first functional units and an interconnect layer coupled to the first integrated circuit layer. The first integrated circuit layer and interconnect layer are integrated with one another into a single three-dimensional integrated circuit. The interconnect layer comprises a plurality of independent on-chip communication networks that are independently operable and independently able to be powered on and off, each on-chip communication network comprising a plurality of point-to-point communication links coupled together by a plurality of connection points. The one or more first functional units are coupled to a first independent on-chip communication network of the interconnect layer.
