Abstract:Three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuits, which use a vertically stacked design of 2D planar chips in a 3D arrangement using through-silicon-via (TSV) technology have been developed to minimise chip footprint, enable higher integration density, decrease power consumption and reduce fabrication cost. Floorplanning without considering power can increase the number of power TSVs and bumps needed to solve IR drop constraint in 3D power delivery network. In this study, the authors propose a methodology for minimi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
