Everything I've seen related to EMIB to date, including much of what was shown on the link you sent to me.
Intel has made a big to-do about their tiny EMIB bridges being easier to fab that large silicon interposers. All the graphics I've seen displaying a hypothetical EMIB configuration, show little strips of green to represent physical die interconnects. It appeared that all signals to be transmitted from one die to another in the EMIB configuration would have to cross one or more bridges to reach the intended destination. The rest should be obvious from there.
Look at the Silicon Interposer picture I included in the previous post. It is exactly the same way that EMIB is laid out.
Regardless of which solution you are using, you want the data connections closest to the outside near where the meet the other die, and power plane away from the other dies. Because regardless of which solution you use you want to simplify routing and minimize path length. This does not change between EMIB/SI, and both use the same bumbs/microbumps for connections, for the same reasonse.
These are functionally equivalent from the chip perspective.
The difference is that Intel solution is much less expensive, because it using smaller pieces of silicon, only where needed to run connections, while Silicon Interposer, is using one massive piece of silicon to cover the whole area.
Even if you need to be more picky in pin layout to minimize the EMIB silicon slivers.
There is NOTHING stopping an EMIB design from being used on Silicon Interposer as is.
EMIB is just Silicon interposer with excess silicon eliminated. They are compatible solutions.
And in this case, the Intel EMIB part exists, it could be used on Silicon Interposer with ZERO need for change.
