Voltage regulators stacked in 3-D

"The next step, which we are already fabbing, is a full 3-D stack where the silicon interposers contains not only the power inductors, but also the power train—the transistors that switch those power inductors—enabling power to flow from the package up through the interposer, where it is converted down in voltage then sent up through TSVs to power the CMOS chip itself on top."
