Where the article explains it
with defect density , die area A , and a clustering parameter c that captures the fact that defects are not independently scattered [ 2 ] .
The passage around this formula
The second ceiling is statistical and softer, but it bites earlier. Defects arrive on a wafer at some density, and the probability that a given die contains none of them falls as its area grows. Feng and Ma, in the cost model they published for multi-chiplet architectures, use the negative binomial form . with defect density , die area A , and a clustering…
