Abstract

See full text

The embodiments of the present invention relate generally to the fabrication of integrated circuits, and more particularly to a structure and method for fabricating a 3D integration scheme for multiple semiconductor wafers using an arrangement of intra-wafer through silicon vias (TSVs) to electrically connect the front side of a first integrated circuit (IC) chip to large back side wiring on the back side of the first IC chip and inter-wafer TSVs to electrically connect the first IC chip to a second IC chip.
