Simple wafer stacking 3D-FPGA architecture
説明
A three-dimensional (3D) integration based on wafer-to-wafer bonding using through-silicon vias (TSVs) has been developed for the fabrication of new 3D large-scale integrated chips. To balance between cost and performance, and to explore 3D field-programmable gate array (FPGA) with realistic 3D integration processes, we propose spatially distributed and functionally distributed types of 3D FPGA architectures. The goal of this paper is to elucidate the advantages and disadvantages of these two types of 3D FPGAs. According to our evaluation, when only two layers are used, the functionally distributed architecture is more effective. When higher performance is achieved by using more than two layers, the spatially distributed architecture achieves better performance.
