Training information
Join us for a full‑day workshop exploring NanoIC’s newest fine‑pitch redistribution layer (RDL) and die‑to‑wafer (D2W) hybrid‑bonding process design kits (PDKs), the first open‑access interconnect PDKs enabling high‑density, energy‑efficient chip‑to‑chip integration.
During this hands‑on training, you’ll discover how these advanced packaging technologies unlock new capabilities for advanced system integration.
The program combines accessible introductory lectures with practical design exercises that guide you through the capabilities of the new RDL and D2W PDKs.
Why join?
- Be among the first to work with NanoIC’s new interconnect PDKs (RDL & D2W).
- Learn how fine‑pitch polymer‑based RDL, with line widths and spacings down to 1.3 microns and microbump pitches as tight as 20 microns, can help improve communication speed and reducing energy per bit.
- Gain practical experience with design rule checks, routing, layout flows, and system‑level considerations.
- Engage with imec experts developing the underlying technology and get answers to your technical questions.
Tentative agenda
- Introduction to the NanoIC project
- Technical introduction of the NanoIC fine-pitch redistribution layer (RDL) PDK and on the NanoIC die-to-wafer (D2W) hybrid bonding PDK
- Hands-on session with the NanoIC fine-pitch redistribution layer (RDL) PDK
- Hands-on session with the NanoIC die-to-wafer (D2W) hybrid bonding PDK
The hands-on sessions will cover
- Floorplanning of the 2.5D system
- Importing the floorplan into the design environment
- Routing of die-to-die signals
- Power grid design and optimization
- Routing die-to-PCB signals
- Design Rule Check (DRC)
- Layout Versus Schematic (LVS) checks of a chiplet package
Who should attend?
