More-than-Moore 2.5D and 3D SiP Integration

by Riko Radojcic

This book presents a realistic and a holistic review of the microelectronic and semiconductor technology options in the post Moore's Law regime. Technical tradeoffs, from architecture down to manufacturing processes, associated with the 2.5D and 3D integration technologies, as well as the business and product management considerations encountered when faced by disruptive technology options, are presented. Coverage includes a discussion of Integrated Device Manufacturer (IDM) vs Fabless, vs Foundry, and Outsourced Assembly and Test (OSAT) barriers to implementation of disruptive technology options. This book is a must-read for any IC product team that is considering getting off the Moore's Law track, and leveraging some of the More-than-Moore technology options for their next microelectronic product.

About the author

Riko Radojcic writes hard-science technothriller stories that blur the lines between the real and the imagined. The 'real' part is based on his 30+ years of experience in the high-tech industry, and the 'imagined' part are just stories that he made up - but that could happen. His books are a blend of fiction, with characters that make sense, dealing with the non-fictional realities of the semiconductor industry, with some real-world technological considerations and with current events all mixed in to make thrilling hard-to-put-down dramas.

Riko was born in what was then Yugoslavia, spent his teen years in East Pakistan (Bangladesh now), Nigeria, Kenya and Tanzania, completed high school in a Switzerland, and then earned his BSc and PhD degrees in Electronic Engineering and Solid-State Physics in England. He enjoyed a rewarding and a very stimulating career in semiconductor industry, acting in a variety of technical, managerial and business development roles and working with a variety of talented people from all over the world.

And now he is a writer, trying to bring to life his very diverse experiences through fictional stories.
