Abstract: By utilizing silicon via’s characteristics such as short delays and less power consumption, this paper designed a new kind of topology 3DE-Mesh for a three dimensional networks-on-chip which has more than 10 layers of stacked dies. By analyzing the experimental data the paper proves 3DE-Mesh’s function and scalability. The simulation results indicate that the 3DE-Mesh satisfies the requirements of the three dimensional integrated circuits which has more than 10 layers of stacked dies.  

Key words: three dimensional integrated circuits (3D IC), three dimensional networks-on-chip (3D NoC), topology, extended channel
