    Abstract: Multi-die structures with die-to-die routing are described. In an embodiment, each die is patterned into the same semiconductor substrate, and the dies may be interconnected with die-to-die routing during back-end wafer processing. Partial metallic seals may be formed to accommodate the die-to-die routing, programmable dicing, and various combinations of full metallic seals and partial metallic seals can be formed. This may also be extended to three dimensional structures formed using wafer-on-wafer or chip-on-wafer techniques.

    Abstract: Reconstructed 3DIC structures and methods of manufacture are described. In an embodiment, one or more dies in each package level of a 3DIC are both functional chips and/or stitching devices for two or more dies in an adjacent package level. Thus, each die can function as a communication bridge between two other dies/chiplets in addition to performing a separate chip core function.
