TESTING MEMORY OF WAFER-ON-WAFER BONDED MEMORY AND LOGIC
A wafer-on-wafer bonded memory and logic device can enable high bandwidth transmission of data directly between a memory die and a logic die. Memory devices can be formed on a first wafer. First metal pads can be formed on the first wafer and coupled to the memory devices. The memory devices can be tested via the first metal pads. The first metal pads can be removed from the first wafer. Subsequently, second metal pads on the first wafer can be bonded, via a wafer-on-wafer bonding process, to third metal pads on a second wafer. Each memory device on the first wafer can be aligned with and coupled to a respective logic device on the second wafer.
SIGNAL ROUTING BETWEEN MEMORY DIE AND LOGIC DIE FOR MODE BASED OPERATIONS
A memory device includes a memory die bonded to a logic die. A logic die that is bonded to a memory die via a wafer-on-wafer bonding process can receive signals indicative of input data from a global data bus of the memory die and through a bond of the logic die and memory die. The logic die can also receive signals indicative of kernel data from local input/output (LIO) lines of the memory die and through the bond. The logic die can perform a plurality of operations at a plurality of vector-vector (VV) units utilizing the signals indicative of input data and the signals indicative of kernel data. The inputs and the outputs to the VV units can be configured based on a mode of the logic die.
Straight wirebonding of silicon dies
A method including stacking a number of silicon dice such that one or more edges of the dice are in vertical alignment, where the one or more edges include a number of connection pads. The method also includes positioning a connecting wire on a substantially perpendicular axis to the one or more edges. The connecting wire includes a number of solder blocks formed thereon. The solder blocks are spaced at intervals associated with a distance between a first set of aligned connection pads on the dice.
