  • Publication number: 20230317847
    Abstract: Technologies for majority gates are disclosed. In one embodiment, a ferroelectric layer has three inputs and an output adjacent a surface of the ferroelectric. When a voltage is applied to each input, the inputs and a ground plane below the ferroelectric layer form a capacitor. The ferroelectric layer becomes polarized based on the applied voltages at the inputs. The portion of the ferroelectric layer near the output becomes polarized in the direction of polarization of the majority of the inputs. The output voltage then reflects the majority voltage of the inputs.

  • Publication number: 20220415837
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for mitigating stress on hybrid bonded interfaces in a multi-tier arrangement of integrated circuit (IC) dies. In an embodiment, first dies are bonded at a host die each via a respective one of first hybrid bond interfaces, wherein a second one or more dies are coupled to the host die each via a respective one of the first dies, and via a respective second hybrid bond interface. Stress at one of the hybrid bond interfaces is mitigated by properties of a first dielectric layer that extends to that hybrid bond interface. In another embodiment, stress at a given one of the hybrid bond interfaces is mitigated by properties of a dummy chip—or alternatively, properties of a patterned encapsulation structure—which is formed on the given hybrid bond interface.

    Abstract: A composite integrated circuit (IC) structure includes at least a first IC die in a stack with a second IC die. Each die has a device layer and metallization layers interconnected to transistors of the device layer and terminating at features. First features of the first IC die are primarily of a first composition with a first microstructure. Second features of the second IC die are primarily of a second composition or a second microstructure. A first one of the second features is in direct contact with one of the first features. The second composition has a thermal conductivity at least an order of magnitude lower than that of the first composition and first microstructure. The first composition may have a thermal conductivity at least 40 times that of the second composition or second microstructure.

  • Patent number: 11537375
    Abstract: An apparatus and method is described that digitally coordinates dynamically adaptable clock and voltage supply to significantly reduce the energy consumed by a processor without impacting its performance or latency. A signal is generated that indicates a long latency operation. This signal is used to reduce power supply voltage and frequency of the adaptable clock. An early resume indicator is generated a few nanoseconds before normal operations are about to resume. This early resume signal is used to power up the power-downed voltage regulator, and/or can increase frequency and/or supply voltage back to normal level before normal processor operations are about to resume.

  • Publication number: 20220300049
    Abstract: A thermal management scheme, for a multichip module, that is aware of various dies in a stack (horizontal and/or vertical) and heat generated from them, local hot spots in a victim die, and hot spots in aggressor die(s). Each victim die receives telemetry information from thermal sensors located in aggressor dies as well as local thermal sensors in the victim die. The telemetry information is used to enable a virtual sensing scheme where temperature for a target die (e.g., a victim die) and/or its intellectual property (IP) domain is estimated or calculated. The estimated or calculated temperature is then used for performance management of the victim and/or aggressor dies in the stack.
