Is the Buzz around Xilinx's 2.5D FPGA Justified?MonolithIC 3D Blog - Deepak SekarDec. 05, 2011 |
The Xilinx 2.5D FPGA has met with widespread acclaim since its launch in October 2010. EETimes called it "the world's highest capacity FPGA". Two of my favorite bloggers, Steve Leibson and Francoise von Trapp, had positive things to say about it too. Steve dubbed it "generation-jumping" and Francoise said "it has got the 3D IC market segment abuzz". Since I specialize in this field, people frequently ask me about pros and cons of 2.5D FPGAs, and want to know if the press attention is justified. Thought I should write a blog-post on the subject today.
