초록

In this study, a wireless type of chip-to-chip communication(WCC) technology is proposed as the next generation of three-dimensional(3D) semiconductor technology. To demonstrate the feasibility of the technology, we design a transceiver and receiver for wireless chip-to-chip communication method. The transceiver part for WCC circuit is designed using the conventional cross-coupled oscillator structure. To reduce the distortion of the signal, we input the data using the cascade structure. The receiver part for WCC circuit consists of coil. To confirm the characteristic of the proposed transceiver and receiver coil structures, we performed electromagnetic simulation. From the simulation results, the possibility of proposed wireless data transfer system was verified. The proposed wireless data transfer system has been designed using CMOS process. In simulation, the frequency of input data is 100 MHz and the peak-to-peak voltage of the input signal is 2 V. The peak-to-peak voltage of output signal is approximately 1.2 V and oscillation frequency is 1.75 GHz. The simulation result is shown that the transmitter part is transmitting signal which has only difference of 0.08 ns. Also it was found that wireless transceiver system has power consumption about 40%. In measurement result, data input setup 1MHz, and other setup is equal to that of the simulation. From the measured results, we successfully verify the feasibility of the proposed structure.
