3D Thursday: More on the Xilinx Virtex 7 with 2.5D tiling. Wave of the future or stopgap measure?
Last November, I wrote a blog entry about Xilinx’ plan to use 2.5D assembly techniques to create large Virtex 7 FPGAs using tiled 28nm silicon with interposers. (See “Need really big FPGAs? Xilinx will be taking the “3D” route for … Continue reading
