As AI and HPC systems scale, the biggest performance bottleneck in 3D/multi‑die design isn’t transistors—it’s heat. Thermal planning now starts at the very beginning of the design process, pairing simulation with real‑world validation. In Semiconductor Engineering’s article, “Beating The Heat In 3D Packages,” senior editor Laura Peters details how the industry is tackling thermal management and features insights from Michael Kelly, Vice President, Chiplets/FCBGA Integration at Amkor Technology, Inc.. His perspective underscores that in stacked‑die architectures, combined heat from facing dies and the risk of thermal runaway require early, system‑level co‑design of die placement, junction‑temperature limits, and cooling strategy At Amkor, we bridge simulation and reality with package‑level heater‑die prototypes with on‑die sensors—validating models early, informing floorplanning, and de‑risking advanced 2.5D/3D programs so customers can meet performance, reliability, and time‑to‑market targets at scale. 🔗 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gvJKp_rc #Amkor #AdvancedPackaging #Chiplets #Thermal #AI #HPC #Semiconductors #SemiconductorIndustry
