Abstract
Power and substrate domains are strategically isolated or unified in heterogeneous 3D integration. In-tier probing circuitry provides accessibility to power delivery and substrate networks in a deep tier of a 3D chip stack and capability of diagnosing intra/inter tier coupling. A two-tier demonstrator was successfully tested in a 130 nm CMOS, 3D-SIC Cu TSV technology.
