Digital IC Back-End Implementation - The Difference Between TSMC 12nm and T 28nm Metal Stack
The picture below shows the Metal Stack used in our community IC back-end training camp project.
The full English name of RDL is redistribution layer. RDL is a layer of AL on the top metal. Generally speaking, it is a copper process. In the pad are
