Equation 5 · Part 1 · How Chiplets and Advanced Packaging Actually Work
Symbol p
What this part means
the pitch.
Its job in the formula
p is a part of this expression. Its role is fixed by the surrounding article and by the operations shown in the formula.

Where the article explains it
If interconnects sit on a roughly square grid of pitch p , the number that fit per unit area scales as
The passage around this formula
Density itself is worth being precise about, because pitch and area density do not scale the same way. If interconnects sit on a roughly square grid of pitch p , the number that fit per unit area scales as
