Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a logic chip upon which a stack of memory chips is to be placed. The stack of memory chips and the logic chip to be placed within a same package, wherein, multiple memory chips of the stack of memory chips are divided into fractions, and, multiple internal channels within the package that emanate from the logic chip are to be coupled to respective ones of the fractions. The logic chip has a multiplexer. The multiplexer is to multiplex a single input/output (I/O) channel of the package to the multiple internal channels.

First claim
