Hybrid bonding pitch sets hard limits on chiplet integration density that no EDA tool or floorplan trick can overcome. Here's what the numbers actually mean.
P. NakamuraRDL routing complexity in advanced packages sets hard limits on chiplet placement long before physical design tools touch the floorplan. Here's why.
P. NakamuraWafer-level fan-out RDL pitch and layer count quietly set the hard limits on chiplet I/O density before substrate or die design even enters the picture.
P. NakamuraRedistribution layer fanout pitch quietly caps chiplet integration density before interconnect standards or die size ever become the limiting factor.

P. NakamuraRandom die placement on advanced packages destroys yield in ways traditional models never predicted. Here's what the math actually looks like.
P. NakamuraDisaggregating SoCs into chiplets doesn't just split silicon, it splits trust. Here's why securing die-to-die interfaces is genuinely unsolved.
P. NakamuraKnown-good-die testing is the unglamorous bottleneck throttling chiplet yield and cost. Here's how the industry is solving it, and where it's still stuck.
P. NakamuraCo-packaged optics and silicon photonics are rewriting the rules for chiplet interconnect bandwidth, here's what that means for next-gen heterogeneous designs.
P. NakamuraWafer-to-wafer bonding offers unmatched interconnect density, but yield math punishes it harshly. Here's why that tradeoff is shifting.
P. NakamuraEmbedded bridge dies are turning passive silicon interposers into active routing layers, here's what that means for chiplet bandwidth and cost.
P. NakamuraDie-to-die latency isn't just a spec footnote, it's quietly determining which functions can be disaggregated into chiplets and which cannot.

P. NakamuraSamsung's I-Cube4 and TSMC's SoIC represent two distinct approaches to vertical chiplet stacking and 3D integration.
P. NakamuraTSMC and Intel are taking different packaging approaches to the same chiplet future. Both strategies have real tradeoffs.
