High bandwidth chip-to-chip interface using HBM physical interface

Abstract:

Techniques related to a high bandwidth interface (HBI) for communication between multiple host devices on an interposer are described. In an example, the HBI repurposes a portion of the high bandwidth memory (HBM) interface, such as the physical layer. A computing system is provided. The computing system includes a first host device and at least a second host device. The first host device is a first die on an interposer and the second host device is a second die on the interposer. The first host device and the second host device are interconnected via at least one HBI. The HBI implements a layered protocol for communication between the first host device and the second host device. The layered protocol includes a physical layer protocol that is configured according to a HBM physical layer protocol.
