Open3D TAB Intro
Open3D Technical
Advisory Board (TAB)
Introduction
The Open3D Technical Advisory Board (TAB) participation
is drawing from a wide range of the supply chain,
including fabless leaders, packaging / OSAT, foundries,
and system / OEMs. Open3D will also be engaging a number
of experts across the research and academic community
for their domain knowledge.
Open3D TAB is scoped to define open standard interfaces
and formats to enable interoperable 2.5D and 3D design
flows, providing common interfaces, but not
infringing upon any proprietary algorithms, products, or
methodologies based on Si2’s member-approved and
well-accepted IP Policy.
Several technology contributions have already been
offered, and there is substantial industry pressure for
the first baseline with specification to be ready for
standardization by 2Q2012. Based upon TAB member input,
standards development is proceeding in 3 phases in time:
1. Design exchange formats / API’s and sub-flows (ex.
Partitioning / floorplanning constraints
for design of tiers, tier-to-tier constraints for
micro-bump exclusion zones, thermal / mechanical
stress, etc.)
2. Model exchange formats / API’s and sub-flows (ex.
Electrical, thermal, mechanical models
of adjacent tiers)
3. Format / API standards support for full heterogeneous
and homogeneous 3D design
methodologies (e.g. ‘pathfinding’)

Major Accomplishments -
2011
• Coalition and
structures established, staffed with member
representatives
• Posted Request for
Technology requesting contributions of proven
specifications to accelerate
standardization process
• Defined 3 working
groups, then staffed and started one of them (Power
DistributionNetwork working group)
