By going beyond current industry approaches, such as two dimensional scaling and the addition of performance boosters to complementary metal oxide semiconductors, or CMOS technology, the GT team seeks to provide enhanced performance and energy consumption at lower costs.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EProfs. Raychowdhury (PI) and Swaminathan (co-PI) will work in the area of heterogeneous integration, with a focus on the design of high speed die-to-die networks, the incorporation of power, logic, memory and RF components on a common substrate that enables 2.5D and 3D integration.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026ldquo;Our involvement in the ASCENT center provides us with unique opportunities to partner with the academic and industrial leaders to explore foundational technologies in computing. We will leverage our expertise on high-speed circuit design, device-circuit interactions and advanced packaging to address logic and memory challenges for next-generation computing and communication systems,\u0026rdquo; said Prof. Raychowdhury, the ON Semiconductor Jr. Associate Professor of VLSI Systems.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026ldquo;Georgia Tech has always had a long history of working with SRC and we are therefore excited and honored to continue that effort through JUMP,\u0026rdquo; said Prof. M. Swaminathan, John Pippin Chair in Microsystems Packaging \u0026amp; Electromagnetics and C3PS director. \u0026ldquo;Through JUMP we plan on expanding our current center capabilities on power delivery, machine learning, multi-physics simulation and system design to include new circuit architectures, power converters, magnetic materials, high frequency components, vertically integrated tools and other platform technologies on a common interconnect fabric.\u0026rdquo;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThis is one of the largest JUMP centers funded by SRC and will work synergistically over the next five years to provide breakthrough technologies.\u0026nbsp; Other universities involved in the 13-member team include; Notre Dame (lead), Arizona State University, Cornell University, Purdue University, Stanford University, University of Minnesota, University of California-Berkeley, University of California-Los Angeles, University of California-San Diego, University of California-Santa Barbara, University of Colorado, and the University of Texas-Dallas.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E- Christa M.
