Chiplets

Alphawave Semi’s leading IP and custom silicon expertise is integrated into a foundation for prebuilt connectivity chiplets. This cost effective and flexible approach delivers connectivity at a higher bandwidth and lower power than traditional infrastructure solutions. Advanced package technologies have made it possible to intelligently combine various chip functions by stacking die onto a universal substrate. Using the N-1 (or even N-2) process for the IO chiplet can increase savings and decrease time to market by breaking up the SOC into smaller, more efficient building blocks.

The Benefits of Chiplets

Chiplets reduce the total die cost at the tradeoff of more complete packaging and manufacturing. Chiplets are at their most cost effective for large die with little redundancy, making favorable heterogenous integrations of application-specific chiplets. On next generation processes, the cost savings will continue to increase; chiplets can save up to 35% of cost of the larger die.
