Chiplet technology enables the integration of an increasing number of transistors on a single accelerator with higher yield in the post-Moore era, addressing the immense computational demands arising from rapid AI advancements. However, it also introduces more expensive packaging costs and costly Die-to-Die (D2D) interfaces, which require more area, consume higher power, and offer lower bandwidth than on-chip interconnects. Maximizing the benefits and minimizing the drawbacks of chiplet technology is crucial for developing large-scale DNN chiplet accelerators, which poses challenges to both architecture and mapping. Despite its importance in the post-Moore era, methods to address these challenges remain scarce.
