CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
This seminar report was created to assist developers in maximizing application performance on new Intel graphics technologies, primarily focused on the new Intel microarchitecture codenamed Ivy Bridge. The document will introduce the new architecture and detail best practices with a focus on the DirectX 9, 10 and 11 APIs. Following the guidelines laid out in this document will help the developers game reach optimal performance on Intel processor graphics while providing a great gaming experience to the largest possible market. As reported by Mercury Research in the second quarter of 2011, Intels combined integrated graphics line currently enjoys the largest market share, standing at 50.4% for desktop parts, 59% for mobile parts. With the introduction of the Intel microarchitecture codenamed Sandy Bridge, the graphics processor has moved onto the same die as the CPU, and is now referred to as processor graphics. In addition, processor graphics has enjoyed numerous architectural improvements that yield significant performance improvements over previous generations of Intel integrated graphics parts. The new generation of microarchitecture, codenamed Ivy Bridge, provides another jump in functionality and performance over Sandy Bridge microarchitecture. Ivy Bridge microarchitecture is manufactured on the new 22nm process technology, incorporating Intels new tri-gate (or 3D) transistor technology. This innovative new process yields greater performance at much lower power. For example, the new tri-gate transistors exhibit 36% faster switching speed than the equivalent transistors on the legacy process at the same voltage. Tri-gate transistors also leak about 10x less current in their off state, resulting in a power saving of approximately 50% when using a comparable performance profile.

CHAPTER 2: FLIP CHIP


2.1 Flip Chip Flip chip, also known as Controlled Collapse Chip Connection or its acronym, C4, is a method for interconnecting semiconductor devices, such as IC Chips and Micro electromechanical systems, to external circuitry with solder bumps that have been deposited onto the chip pads. The solder bumps are deposited on the chip pads on the top side of the wafer during the final wafer processing step. In order to mount the chip to external circuitry (e.g., a circuit board or another chip or wafer), it is flipped over so that its top side faces down, and aligned so that its pads align with matching pads on the external circuit, and then the solder is flowed to complete the interconnect. This is in contrast to wire bonding, in which the chip is mounted upright and wires are used to interconnect the chip pads to external circuitry.

A pin grid array, often abbreviated PGA, is a type of integrated circuit packaging. In a PGA, the package is square or roughly square and the pins are arranged in a regular array on the underside of the package. The pins are commonly spaced 2.54 mm (0.1") apart, and may or may not cover the entire underside of the package. PGAs are often mounted on printed circuit boards using the through hole method or inserted into a socket. PGAs allow for more pins per integrated circuit than older packages such as dual in-line package. PPGA: (Plastic pin grid array) used by Intel for late model Mendocino core Celeron processors based on Socket 370. Some pre-Socket 8 processors also used a similar form factor, although they were not officially referred to as PPGA.

2.4 The underside of a FC-PGA package (the die is on the other side)

A flip-chip pin grid array (FC-PGA or FCPGA) is a form of pin grid array integrated circuit packaging in which the die faces downwards on the top of the substrate with the

back of the die exposed. This allows the die to have a more direct contact with the heat sink or other cooling mechanism. The FCPGA was introduced by Intel with the Coppermine core Pentium

III and Celeron processors based on Socket 370, and was later used for Socket 478based Pentium 4 and Celeron processors. FC-PGA processors fit into zero insertion force Socket 370 and Socket 478-based motherboard sockets; similar packages have also been used by AMD. It is still used today for mobile Intel processors.

2.3 STAGGERED PIN The Staggered pin grid array (SPGA) is used by Intel processors based on Socket 5 and Socket 7. Socket 8 used a partial SPGA layout on half the processor. 2.5 View of the socket 7 321-pin connectors of a CPU

It consists of two square arrays of pins, offset in both directions by half the minimum distance between pins in one of the arrays. Put differently: within a square boundary the pins form a diagonal square lattice. There is generally a section in the center of the package without any pins. SPGA packages are usually used by devices that require a higher pin density than what a PGA can provide, such as microprocessors.

2.4 CERAMIC
A ceramic pin grid array is a type of packaging used by integrated circuits. This type of packaging uses a ceramic substrate with pins arranged in a pin grid array. Some CPUs that use CPGA packaging are the AMD Socket A Athlons and the Duron A CPGA was used by AMD for Athlon and Duron processors based on Socket A, as well as some AMD processors based on Socket AM2 and Socket AM2+. While similar form factors have been used by other manufacturers, they are not officially referred to as CPGA. This type of packaging uses a ceramic substrate with pins arranged in an array.

2.5 ORGANIC
An organic pin grid array (OPGA) is a type of connection for integrated circuits, and especially CPUs, where the silicon die is attached to a plate made out of an organic plastic which is pierced by an array of pins which make the requisite connections to the socket. The organic pin grid array was originally introduced for the AMD Athlon XP processors based on Socket A, also used for AMD processors using Socket 754, Socket 939, Socket 940, Socket AM2, and Socket AM2+.

2.6 Bump Reality


Bump Application is super easy and super faster way to share imformation between two Smart phones. Use Bump to share contact information and photos by simply bumping two phones together. Just open Bump, hold your phones, and gently bump your hands together -Bump will magically do all the rest.

2.7 Vision and Goal Behind Bump Application


The applications and possibilities for bump are enormous .Bump was born as a simple iPhone app for swapping contact information created by our three founders, but as our user base grew, so did our vision. We now have more than 75 million downloads, and a vision of changing the way people use their mobile devices. Our team includes some of the smartest and most talented developers and designers in Silicon Valley, and we all share a common goal: to build something people want and have fun doing it. Bump was part of Y Combinator's summer 2009 batch, and our growth has been fueled by some of the Valley's top investors and VCs, like Ron Conway, Ram Shriram, Sequoia Capital, and Andreessen Horowitz. We're based in downtown Mountain View, the epicenter of Silicon Valley, mere steps from Caltrain to San Francisco.

CHAPTER 3:BUMP WORKING 3.1 Functionality


Amazing as the concept sounds, Bump allowed users to send contact information, photos, and other objects between phones. With version 3.0 however, only contact information and photos can be sent. Before bumping phones, each user confirms what he or she wants to send to the other user. To use the application, two people bump their phones together, and within about five to ten seconds, a screen appears on both users' screens allowing them to confirm what they want to send to each other. When two users bump their phones, the data is automatically sent through a separate internet server to the other user, which is able to detect when any two phones using the application bump each other. A newer aspect of the application allows two people to bump in order to become friends. A big part of Bump is sending and receiving contact information, so Bump obviously accesses contacts you choose to bump to someone and also adds contacts you receive to the Contacts app on your phone.Also, each time you bump with someone new, the app uses the contacts in your phone's Contacts / Address Book to show you what friends you both have in common. You may opt out of this feature in the app's Settings.It works only in Android Application which is a Linux-based operating system for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. It is developed by the Open Handset Alliance led by Google. Google purchased the initial developer of the software, Android Inc., in 2005. The unveiling of the Android distribution in 2007 was announced with the founding of the Open Handset releases Alliance, the a consortium code of 86 hardware, under software, theApache and telecommunication companies devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices. Google Android as open-source, License. The Android Open Source Project (AOSP) is tasked with the maintenance and further development of Android.

3.3 WIRE BONDING/THERMOSONIC BONDING

The interconnections in a power package are made using thick aluminium wires (250 to 400 m) wedge-bonded

In typical semiconductor fabrication systems chips are built up in large numbers on a single large wafer of semiconductor material, typically silicon. The individual chips are patterned with small pads of metal near their edges that serve as the connections to an eventual mechanical carrier. The chips are then cut out of the wafer and attached to their carriers, typically via wire bonding such as Thermosoni Bonding. These wires eventually lead to pins on the outside of the carriers, which are attached to the rest of the circuitry making up the electronic system.

3.3.1 FLIP CHIP

Side-view schematic of a typical flip chip mounting

Processing a flip chip is similar to conventional IC fabrication, with a few additional steps. Near the end of the manufacturing process, the attachment pads are metalized to make them more receptive to solder. This typically consists of several treatments. A small dot of solder is then deposited on each metalized pad. The chips are then cut out of the wafer as normal. Recently, high-speed mounting methods evolved through a cooperation between Reel Service Ltd. and Siemens AG in the development of a high speed mounting tape known as 'MicroTape. By adding a tape-and-reel process into the assembly methodology, placement at high speed, typically 20,000 placements per hour are achievable using standard PCB assembly equipment. To attach the flip chip into a circuit, the chip is inverted to bring the solder dots down onto connectors on the underlying electronics or circuit board. The solder is then remelted to produce an electrical connection, typically using an ultrasonic or alternatively reflow solder process. This also leaves a small space between the chip's circuitry and the underlying mounting. In most cases an electrically-insulating adhesive is then "underfilled" to provide a stronger mechanical connection, provide a heat bridge, and to ensure the solder joints are not stressed due to differential heating of the chip and the rest of the system.

3.4 Reasons Google Bought Bump Technologies


1.Google gets more multitouch capabilities. Yes, Google already has some multitouch functionality much to Apples chagrin in its Google Android smartphones, but the addition of a three-year-old proven desktop software from Bump Technologies puts a new layer of icing on the multitouch cake. While Apple (NSDQ:AAPL) alread1. Google gets

more multitouch capabilities. Yes, Google already has some multitouch functionality much to Apples chagrin in its Google Android smartphones, but the addition of a threeyear-old proven desktop software from Bump Technologies puts a new layer of icing on the multitouch cake. While Apple (NSDQ:AAPL) already offers some multitouch capabilities like pinch-to-zoom and flick, BumpTop delivers some gestures that are specific to its 3D desktop software, like the ability to drag two fingers to focus on the desktops back wall. Anything that can differentiate Googles multitouch capabilities from Apples is a feather in Googles cap.y offers some multitouch capabilities like pinch-to-zoom and flick, BumpTop delivers some gestures that are specific to its 3D desktop software, like the ability to drag two fingers to focus on the desktops back wall. Anything that can differentiate Googles multitouch capabilities from Apples is a feather in Googles cap.

2. BumpTop could pave the way for a Google tablet The acquisition of Bump Technologies could mean a touch-screen Google tablet, or gPad, isnt just vapor or rumor. The BumpTop buy comes just as Apple reveals that it sold more than one million Apple iPad tablets since the device hit stores in early April. The ability to build a tablet around a 3D desktop interface gives Google a clear differentiator. And while the Apple iPad is the tablet to beat right now, a Google Android-based tablet, especially one built around BumpTop, could put a stick in Apples spokes. 3. The Bump Technologies purchase is just one piece of Googles master plan. Google has been paving the way dive head first into new markets. Along with Bump, Google this year has also acquired social search company Aardvark; hardware maker Agnilux; Microsoft Office collaboration suite DocVerse; video streaming company Episodic; game application and widget maker LabPixies; online photo editor Picnik; visual search provider Plink; and mobile email search provider reMail. While its not 100 percent clear what Google plans to do with all of its newly-acquired technologies, one thing is certain: Googles plans go well beyond just a 3D multitouch desktop. Combined, Googles 2010 acquisitions have the muscle to build an unstoppable fleet of mobile offerings that tie in everything from video to search and from widgets to a multitouch desktop, with chips and document management thrown in for good measure.

3.5 Software
PayPal has released a second version of its payment application for Android smartphones, adding the ability to send money between phones by simply tapping the two devices together.Paypal has just released version 2.0 of its Android app, adding new features like the ability to use bump technology to quickly and easily transfer funds between devices.As PayPal notes in its blog entry announcing the new app, this feature has been part of the iPhone PayPal Mobile app since earlier this year. Its a great addition that makes it easy to pay for group dinners or events. The split the check feature also a port from the iPhone app makes dividing a bill and collecting funds super simple. The app also includes other features, like monitoring your balance and sending or requesting funds from individuals directly from the app. The new bump feature should work with other Android or iPhone devices, though I had some problems in my tests, probably because both phones were logged into the same PayPal account.The new feature is the same "bump technology" that PayPal has offered in its mobile app for Apple's iPhone. Another iPhone feature added to the Android app lets groups calculate the portion of a restaurant bill each person owes, and then reimburse on the spot the person paying the tab.

3.6 Security
When Bump application number one priority was creating the best possible user experience . Security of users personal information is a huge part of that experience. With Bump we are in control of deciding with whom we share our information. We don't have to worry about anyone being able to access our information unless we physically bump our phone with someone elses. Finally, we will never share any of our personal information with any third parties.

CHAPTER 4: APPLICATIONS 4.1 ADVANTAGES


The resulting completed flip chip assembly is much smaller than a traditional carrierbased system; the chip sits directly on the circuit board, and is much smaller than the carrier both in area and height. The short wires greatly reduce inductance allowing higher-speed signals, and also conduct heat better.

4.2 Future Plan


What's next: Bump is gearing up to release version 2.0 of its flagship app in the next few months, which the company promises will include a range of new features derived from user feedback. In the long term, the company hopes to become a standard service used by smartphone owners--and once it reaches that point, company management will begin implementing an official revenue model.

4.3 Application
1.Sharinng contacts between two smartphones by bumping them. 2.Sharinng photos between two smartphones.

4.4 Problems and challenges in creating Bump technology


A free iPhone social networking application called Bump, which lets users quickly share personal contact information and photos, created a buzz at the CTIA International wireless conference.Bump, from Bump Technologies Inc. in Mountain View, Calif., first appeared in March, and was distinguished as the billionth download from Apple Inc.'s App Store. Thanks to that achievement, it was prominently featured in an iPhone TV ad and drew the attention of iPhone users -- and six months later, the level of attention seems to have multiplied.Bump aroused the curiosity of analysts and technology buffs at CTIA

partly because of the way it uses AT&T Inc.'s network and the iPhone's built-in GPS functionality and sensors to help users share their contact information.The Bump allows two users who have loaded the app onto their iPhones clench their devices in their hands and then tap their hands together in a gentle fist bump to begin the exchange of information stored in each phone.A bartender at a CTIA party who noticed mobile phone executives playing with phones in the crowd remarked that Bump is his favorite iPhone app. "I don't know how it works, but you just bump another person, and it works," he said.So, how does it work? IDC analyst Scott Ellison said most Bump users mistakenly believe the device transmits the data over the air via Bluetooth or an infrared signal. However, the app actually relies on AT&T's 3G cellular or EDGE networks or Wi-Fi to transmit the data between phones.The Bump FAQ gives more details about how the phones identify each other and how each knows that the other is ready to transmit data.According to the FAQ, the Bump app runs on the iPhone and a matching algorithm runs on a server in the cloud. The app on the phone uses the sensors on the phone to "feel" the bump, sending that information to the server. The algorithm responds to bumps from phones globally and pairs up phones that "feel" the same bump, and it then routes the contact information between the two phones in the pair. The process takes less than 10 seconds.Ellison said that Bump relies on GPS to give the location of each phone, but it also uses the iPhone's accelerometer, which detects movement.The FAQ says that if two pairs of users bump their phones at the same time and in close proximity to each other -- at a crowded party, for example -- and the server can't identify the specific matches, the pairs will be asked to bump again.The communications between the phones and the server are encrypted for greater security. Once a bump is made, the server will find the two phones that felt the bump and then ask each one to transmit the contact information, but nothing else, the FAQ says. If both users confirm that the match is correct, the information is sent to the other party.Bump Technologies said that it plans to keep the basic version free for the "entire foreseeable future" and that it is working to make the app available for other smartphones equipped with sensing technologies "in the near future."The Apple App Store includes a variety of customer reviews that show how Bump is used. One comment, by someone identified as Paddledave, says the app is "great if you are in a bar and too drunk to trade contacts." Another by a user dubbed cwinfoseeker says, "it's cool but it would be way better if u

could bump music and apps with ur friends."Ellison said the Bump is "very, very snazzy" and is a good example of the capabilities of emerging mobile technologies.

4.5 Availability
Bump has only been available for download from the App Store for a month, but already the social networking app has secured a place in iPhone app history. Bump became the one billionth download from the App Store when a Connecticut teenager selected the free app on Thursday.It's a pretty fortuitous turn of events for an app that aims to help you exchange contact information by bumping your iPhone or iPod touch with another user. Bump is the first App Store offering from Bump Technologies, the brainchild of ex-Texas Instruments employees David Lieb, Andy Huibers, and Jake Mintz.I spoke with Lieb for a little bit on Friday and found out the origins of Bump. A first year MBA student at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Lieb said he was always jotting contact info into his iPhone when at school."I knew there had to be a better way," he said. Lieb contacted Mintz and Huibers and the company was born. There was however, one problem. Huibers, the programming brains behind the project, didn't have a Mac and had never programmed for any Apple platform.Andy bought a Mac the next day and he had the basis for the application done within a week," said Lieb.The finished product exchanges contact data between two mobile devices over any type of wireless connection. Both users open Bump on their respective phones and then, holding the phones, gently bump their hands together.There are actually two parts to the swapping of information-the app running on the iPhone and a server in the cloud. In its simplest form, when two phones literally bump, they send the information to the server--the server then uses an algorithm to match that bump to another phone in the cloud. The users are asked if they want to swap information and once confirmed, the info is swapped, saving the new contact data in each user's respective address book.Bump Technologies has big plans for Bump and the technology used by the app. A paid pro version of the app is in the works, promising the ability to send photos and multiple contacts; look for it in the next few months

CONCLUSION
Bump Technology has definitely gotten a lot of attention, mostly due to the gimmicky feel of the service, which allows users to swap a wide range of datacontacts, photos and soon, much morewhen they tap two phones together.There have been lots of versions of this kind of thing over the years, of course, using a variety of technologies. But the surge in smartphone popularity and app use has made digitally enabled physical transactions a whole lot easier. These days, even competing operating systems, like those for the Apple iPhone and Google Android devices, can bump in a much nicer way than they are currently doing as companies.
