Typical Configurations
Two widely used configurations exist for PoP:
- Pure memory stacking: two or more memory only packages are stacked on each other
- Mixed logic-memory stacking: logic (CPU) package on the bottom, memory package on top. For example, the bottom could be an application processor for a mobile phone. The logic package is on the bottom because it needs many more BGA connections to the motherboard.

Famous quotes containing the word typical:
“Compare the history of the novel to that of rock ‘n’ roll. Both started out a minority taste, became a mass taste, and then splintered into several subgenres. Both have been the typical cultural expressions of classes and epochs. Both started out aggressively fighting for their share of attention, novels attacking the drama, the tract, and the poem, rock attacking jazz and pop and rolling over classical music.”
—W. T. Lhamon, U.S. educator, critic. “Material Differences,” Deliberate Speed: The Origins of a Cultural Style in the American 1950s, Smithsonian (1990)
