Abstract:
1. A scalable system on an integrated circuit (SoC) comprising: a first radio frequency (RF) system disposed on a first substrate; a second RF system disposed on a second substrate; a first processor, configured to process the first RF system, disposed on a substrate separate from the first substrate; and a second processor, configured to process the second RF system, disposed on a substrate separate from the second substrate, wherein the first processor and the first RF system are stacked one on top of the other to configure a first RF system on the integrated circuit (RFSoC), the second processor and the second RF system are stacked one on top of the other to configure a second RFSoC, and the first RFSoC and the second RFSoC are disposed either (a) in a horizontal plane, laterally spaced from each other, or (b) in vertically stacked planes, one above the other.
