  • Ever wondered what the green stuff is when you hold up a processor? It's like the motherboard, right? Actually it does more than that, and when we look to the future, it doesn't look like the technology will scale to big chips in the future. So insert Glass Core Substrates - the next wave of technology, coming to a CPU near you.

    Good to see intel coming back and pursuing other materials to drive innovation. I'd just ask what are the benefits in terms of die size, frequency, power consumption, etc? Is glass necessary to support a robust chiplet ecosystem with UCIe? What about cooling performance, is glass a better material for more effective cooling? So many questions. Thanks again!

      Signal integrity seems to be the biggest thing

    • @Summanis
      @Summanis Před 8 měsíci +15

      I think the biggest deal would be wire size. If you saw AMD talk about RDNA3's MCDs requiring an order of magnitude more interconnects than their CCDs, and splitting into multiple GCDs would require an order of magnitude more than that, this is where that comes into play. Since they can make the wires and contacts smaller, you can have higher bandwidth between chiplets at lower power and lower latency. I wonder if this will replace passive silicon interposers.

    • @JorenVaes
      @JorenVaes Před 8 měsíci +13

      Packaging is also a thing they have done a lot of research on. Back in I think the late 90s/early 2000s, they worked a lot with Ajinomoto (yes, the company that also makes instant ramen) to work on a new, increased density packaging system. Moving away from the fully woven types of substrates (with cores and prepregs) they moved to a core with what some call ABF (Ajinomoto build-up film) to get higher density and thinner substrates (which in turn allows for smaller vias and tracks, and thus higher density). These became the defacto standard for anything high density up to recently, where CoWos and such have been taking up a lot of the demand.

    • @XDbored1
      @XDbored1 Před 8 měsíci +5

      the benefits are probably going to be something like cheaper HBM3 without the huge silicon interposer, but probably a bit worse performance then the interposer, the larger benefits is its going to make chiplets that work without silicon interposers a hell of a lot better, right now on organic substrates IF can only reach pcie4.0 speeds and this limits memory clocks too, and the interface between ccxs on dual ccx parts is literally slower then dram, AMD already made a special PCB for RDNA3 chiplets, but Glasscore could allow Chiplet CPUs to reach pcie5/6 speeds, and who knows maybe its cheaper then the thing they used for RDNA3, or maybe its faster.
      Intel is going to want this kind of thing for Tiled CPUs too, the whole industry is slowly moving to chiplets, i think it makes sense to have all the power hungry chips under 1 good cooler, but the whole gluing together a bunch of smaller chips idea is mostly just a temporary cost saving thing, today we have CCXs and IODs, and Intels going to make a GPU chiplet, probably AI acellerators or something, and we have off chip memory, but in the future when EUV lithograpthy gets cheaper it will probably just be a big fat integrated die with some memory chips around it, a lot like Vega.

      The difference is the way you manufacture these glass substrates and the integrated Through hole vias, and future more complex, interconnects. Being transparent, you can use laser technology to make complex 3D structures inside the glass. Intel have about 2 years ago purchased a small scottish SME who have the technology to achieve this aim.

If the flip-chip has VCSELs on the surface, and they take a similar amount of die area and power as a pad for connecting a pin, maybe that's how Intel plans to get by with fewer layers. Wild guess though.

    In the mid-1980s there was a startup called "Trilogy" which was founded by Gene Amdahl. They were going to build "wafer scale computers." The big problem with doing this was clock and signal distributions, skew across the wafer. The proposed solution to this problem was to do the signal distribution optically, but that technology did not exist then. Off and on, optical signal distribution has been the subject of significant research. At one time, Intel was anticipating implementing this by 2017. Rather than the subject being the focus of research for the last decade, it has actually been on the table since at least 1985.

    Using glass seems like it could be a new half step in between a silicon interposer and organic substrate. The benefits of a "si substrate light" as the base package seem obvious but we'll have to see if cost comes down enough to use it in a lot of products. It will be clutch for very large multi die products which would otherwise be size limited by the cte mismatch with the organic material so it should have some market even if it doesn't become cost competitive.

    Just a curiosity question, what material is D? I have no memory of that or is the group D in the periodic table?

    It’s interesting how anisotropic materials are often a pain and people try to make them approach being isotropic, but can also be exploited. The classic material is of course wood: anisotropic properties are exploited with beams and joists, but suppressed by making it into plywood.
    Here, an isotropic material just seems easier to use.

      The simple fact is that a lot of structural materials are asked to share all types of loads for simplicity's sake. Isotropic materials are easier to design with.

    yes cool, invite Dr. Ian for a tour, and also for the research into CPU memory, I heard that Intel was doing research into memory in the CPU, excited for sure!

    Very interesting tech, looking forwards to hearing more about this.
    I sincerely hope Intel will invite you for a deeper look and chats with the real nerds. :)
    This is the best form of marketing there is, and I hope Intel agrees.

    I think with the decreased illumination area through High-NA EUV chip packaging will play a much more vital role in near future. Intel seems to be going the right way by investing in Glass Core Substrates because they enable more complex chiplet designs.

    first what i tought was Ahh SCI FI had it right that chips will be in glass, but not yet what i understand :) I am all for bug leaps in tech like we seen with the ASML extreme ultraviolet lithography for example. Still a long way to go to see it in my desktop PC but would like to hear and see progress in this tech for sure!

    Does this also mean it will be more fragile then? If they put in on laptops or phones for example, will it break from a fall?

    Are we talking about silica glass or is it any amorphous networked solid that fits the design requirements?

    Maybe I missed something but how does this help Moore’s Law? You can pack more dies together and therefore more transistors? The idea being that you can just fab many (hundreds) of cheap dies and then just put them all on a glass substrate?

    I expect to see the glass used as an integrated heat spreader with high-speed optical data/address buses to motherboards with fiber optic interconnects.

    How would this accommodate force from mounting? My number one fear would be cracking the substrate.

    Oh wow great, addresses upcycling also. A see-through chip would be nice though.....:-)

  • @nekomakhea9440

    I wonder if they'll use a machineable glass like macor, so they can drill and mill it?

  • @davidandres7290
    @davidandres7290 Před 8 měsíci

    There are properties of materials that are indicators of how efficient a material will transfer signals. For PCBs the main ones are Dielectric Constant and Dielectric Loss. Using these properties, glass is not as good as many other materials used such as Astra so I don't understand how glass can have less signal loss. I do understand that the fabric weave is a problem and glass could eliminate weave issues also thermal conductivity for glass is likely better.
    One thing that helps with decreasing high frequency signal loss is to use a better conductor. Silver is often used as a coding on coper wires to reduce high frequency signal loss. Since high frequency signal tend to travel on the skin of the conductor silver plating can help. I have not seen silver used on PCB or substrates yet but my visibility is very limited so maybe someone out there is using it.
