Modular periphery tile for integrated circuit device

Systems or methods of the present disclosure may improve scalability (e.g., component scalability, product variation scalability) of integrated circuit systems by disaggregating periphery intellectual property (IP) circuitry into modular periphery IP tiles that can be installed as modules. Such an integrated circuit system may include a first die that includes programmable fabric circuitry and a second die that that includes a periphery IP tile. The periphery IP tile may be disaggregated from the programmable fabric die and may be communicatively coupled to the first die via a modular interface.

MULTI-DIE FPGA IMPLEMENTING BUILT-IN ANALOG CIRCUIT USING ACTIVE SILICON CONNECTION LAYER
20220344268 · 2022-10-27 ·

The present application discloses a multi-die FPGA implementing a built-in analog circuit using an active silicon connection layer, and relates to the field of FPGA technology. The multi-die FPGA allows multiple small-scale and small-area dies to cascade to achieve large-scale and large-area FPGA products, reducing processing difficulties and improving chip production yields. Meanwhile, due to the existence of the active silicon connection layer, some circuit structures that are difficult to implement within the die and/or occupy a large die area and/or have a low processing requirement can be laid out in the silicon connection layer, solving the existing problems of making these circuit structures directly within the die. Part of the circuit structures can be implemented within the silicon connection layer and the rest in the die, which helps optimize the performance of FPGA products, improve system stability, and reduce system area.
