SiP design systems and methods. The system comprises a system partitioning module, a subsystem integration module, a physical design module, and an analysis module. The system partitioning module partitions a target system into subsystem partitions according to partition criteria. The subsystem integration module generates an architecture design and/or a cost estimation for the target system according to the subsystem partitions, at least one SiP platform, and IC geometry data. The physical design module generates a SiP physical design with physical routing for the target system according to the architecture design, the subsystem partitions, the SiP platform, and the IC geometry data. The analysis module performs a performance check within the subsystem partitions based on the SiP physical design and/or simulations of the target system.

摘要:
Various structures of a programmable semiconductor interposer for electronic packaging are described. An array of semiconductor devices having various values is formed in said interposer. A user can program said interposer and form a “virtual” device having a desired value by selectively connecting various one of the array of devices to contact pads formed on the surface of said interposer. An inventive electronic package structure includes a standard interposer having an array of unconnected devices of various values and a device selection unit, which selectively connects various one of the array of devices in said standard interposer to an integrated circuit die encapsulated in said electronic package. Methods of forming said programmable semiconductor interposer and said electronic package are also illustrated.
