Abstract

The research article discusses the flow of product design helpful for semiconductor design companies. Chip-manufacturing industries are fabricating next-generation 3D IC and their packaging is the new challenge. The 3D packaging has low power dissipation, high density, high performance, and reliability. Microelectronics industries follow the 3D IC development based on the TSV technology, processing of micro-bumps, helpful for interconnecting the stacking chips. The reliability of 3D IC, using TSV interposer, is reviewed in detail for Xilinx FPGA environment. The flow and process of WoW stacking methodology followed by low temperature for TSV fabrication are also discussed. 3D interconnection technologies possess excellent reliability and applied for 3D integration in real-time applications and manufacturing. Cost, supply chains, and heat management are the challenges in 3D integration, and chip-package interaction (CPI) is also the reliability issue of 3D IC integration. To reduce the CPI, differential heating/cooling (H/C) chip-joining technique is also discussed, which effectively reduce fractures in ultra-low–k (ULK) Si chips.
