    Increasing levels of semiconductor integration means more work needs to be done in smaller spaces, which in turn generates more heat that needs to be dissipated. Managing heat dissipation in advanced node dies and in multi-die assemblies is critical to their functionality and their longevity. And while much of the focus has been on improving power efficiency, which reduces the rate of power growth, that alone is insufficient.

    UCIe, a standard for die-to-die interconnect in advanced packages, has drawn concern about being too heavyweight with its 2.0 release. But the fact that many of the new features are optional seems to have been lost in much of the public discussion. In fact, new capabilities that support a possible future chiplet marketplace are not required for designs that don’t target that marketplace. “It’s the blessing and the curse of UCIe,” said Mick Posner, senior product marketing group director at Cadence.

    Chiplets are emerging as a significant new phase in the evolution of the semiconductor market, providing a way to continue scaling performance well beyond the size limitations of a reticle. But that improvement comes with a high price tag and a lot more complexity, which so far has limited adoption. One of the main reasons for the cost increase is the need for advanced packaging when employing chiplets, which represents a fundamental shift in how semiconductors are designed, built, and tested.

There's a new standard called UCIe for use in connecting chiplets within a package. https://t.co/6QVGDwtqUz #chiplets #interconnect #bunchofwires #odsa #ucie #pcie via @LinleyGroup
