SEMATECH developed a die-to-wafer interconnect process using a die-tacking and collective-bonding approach on a 300mm wafer platform for 3D-IC applications. Composite wafers containing a 50µm thin through-silicon-via (TSV) wafer attached to a supporting handle wafer were populated with dice using a short, low-temperature tacking process. SEMATECH presented their wafer bonding research at the Device Packaging [...]

I was actually doing a research (for school) on what Internet Protocol is and I thought it was the definition of TCP/IP. But then, just to clarify it, TCP/IP does not only refer to internet protocol. TCP/IP is a collection of communication protocols and that Internet Protocol is just one of them.
Just wanna make that clarification for those who got confused like me. :)
