14 Packaging, Assembly, Chiplets & 3D Integration

Definition

Heterogeneous integration is the integration of separately manufactured components or dies with different materials, functions, or process technologies into a combined package or system.

Application

Advanced packaging uses heterogeneous integration to combine logic, memory, RF, photonics, or specialized chiplets at fine interconnect pitch for higher system performance and functional density.
