Abstract

See full text

A latency compensation circuit and method. A three dimensional (3D) package is disclosed having a latency compensation circuit to address timing delays introduced by a through silicon via (TSV), including: an input for receiving a reference data signal from a redundant TSV and for receiving a local clock signal; a timing slack sensor that outputs a digital value reflecting a delay between a clock pulse of the local clock signal and the reference data signal; a look-up table that converts the digital value into a set of control bits; and an adjustable delay line that adjusts the local clock signal based on the set of control bits.
