    摘要: A system and method for reducing density mismatch is disclosed. An embodiment comprises determining a conductor density and an active area density in a high density area and a low density area of a semiconductor device. Dummy material may be added to the low density area in order to raise the conductor density and the active area density, thereby reducing the internal density mismatches between the high density area and the low density area. Additionally, a similar process may be used to reduce external mismatches between different regions on the semiconductor substrate. Once these mismatches have been reduced, empty regions surrounding the different regions may additionally be filled in order to reduce the conductor density mismatch and the active area density mismatches.

    摘要: A thermal sensing system includes a circuit having a layout including standard cells arranged in rows and columns. First and second current sources provide first and second currents, respectively. The thermal sensing system includes thermal sensing units, first and second switching modules, and an analog to digital converter (ADC). Each thermal sensing unit is configured to provide a voltage drop dependent on a temperature at that thermal sensing unit. The first switching module is configured to select one of the thermal sensing units. The second switching module includes at least one switch controllable by a control signal. The at least one switch is configured to selectively couple the thermal sensing units, based on the control signal, to one of the first and second current sources, via the first switching module. The ADC is configured to convert an analog voltage, provided by the selected thermal sensing unit, to a digital value.

    摘要: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a stacked integrated chip structure having a thermal sensor that detects a temperature of one or a plurality of integrated chips. In some embodiments, the stacked integrated chip structure has a main integrated chip and a secondary integrated chip located on an interposer wafer. The main integrated chip has a reference voltage source that generates a bias current. The secondary integrated chip has a second thermal diode that receives the bias current and based thereupon generates a second thermal sensed voltage and a second reference voltage that is proportional to a temperature of the secondary integrated chip. A digital thermal sensor within the main integrated chip determines a temperature of the secondary integrated chip based upon as comparison of the second thermal sensed voltage and the reference voltage.
