The passage around this formula
…of die positions to a single bonding pass [ 2 ] . The underlying arithmetic is straightforward and worth making explicit, because it is the actual reason “known-good die” testing exists as a discipline: if a stack of n dies each independently has yield y , and defects are uncorrelated across dies, the compound yield of the finished stack before any pre-screening is approximately — falling multiplicatively with every additional die stacked. Testing and discarding bad dies before they are committed to an…
