The issue that you seem to be skirting around but not mentioning is, the chance a chip has a defect increases with die area since defects are randomly distributed across the surface of the wafer. Chiplets are a way for manufacturers to practically increase die area while keeping yields high.
- hedgehog 4y agoIn case it's not obvious the implication is that cost per good part starts to go up quickly. The wafer size and cost is essentially fixed so bigger dies mean both a lower % of parts are good and also fewer fit on the wafer in the first place. Wrong kind of hockey stick chart.
