Abstract :
The success of building a complex multi-billion transistor processor is very dependent on robust and silicon proven design and integration methods. The complexity of 65nm process and striving for best in class performance with aggressive time to market schedule put a heavy emphasis on innovative design and integration methods to enable working silicon. In this paper, we describe the design and integration methods successfully used in a multi-threaded dual core 65nm Xeonreg Processor
