Abstract :
In order to solve the problem of process and cost in 3D-IC, novel non-contact signal transmission with coupling loops have been presented. In this study, we design the broadband, well reproducibility, well directivity and low loss coupling loops to transmit signal between different chips or ICs in 3DIC application, and establishing physical model up to 10GHz with coupling effect and loop effect to restore the signal radiation. By this method, the overall signal transmission of TSV can be the same as the non-contact technology. People can use this design to replace the TSV technology in the future.
