The rise in demand by semiconductor industry for high density and bandwidth, and low power solution, many IC designers are looking up for 3D ICs mounted with through silicon vias (TSVs). 3D ICs accommodate with multiple heterogeneous die such as logic, memory, analog, RF, and micro-electrical mechanical systems thereby improve performance and reduce cost. 3D ICs offers following advantages over traditional system on chips (SoC): low cost, easier to meet high interconnect speeds & bandwidth requirements, ideal for compact mobile devices, reduced resistance-inductance-capacitance helps in reducing power, emerging technologies such as MEMS can potentially be integrated into 3D stacks. 3D ICs with TSVs is showing huge opportunity for semiconductor industry. It offers compelling power, performance and form factor advantages and also can curb the escalating cost of SoC development. However, a well-defined ecosystem including foundries, IP providers, and vendors, need to emerge with more inno
