Abstract

Embodiments herein describe a 3D stack of dies (e.g., an active-on-active (AoA) stack) with a connectivity die that enables the decoupling of processing regions in coupled dies from each other and from the physical location of I/O blocks on an I/O die. For example, the first die may have a plurality of hardware processing blocks that are arranged in a regular manner (e.g., an array with rows and columns). The connectivity die can include interconnects that couple these hardware processing blocks to I/O blocks in a second die. These I/O blocks may be arranged in an irregular manner. The interconnects in the connectivity die can provide fair access so that processing blocks on a first side of the first die can access an I/O block on the opposite side of the second die without using resources for neighboring processing blocks.
