It's common to see die photos on Wikipedia [0, for example] and tech twitter. I understand the basics of processors (I built a basic one in school using Logisim and I've made a few emulators since then). But die photos don't really mean anything to me. I don't know if they even mean anything to other hardware engineers who didn't build the particular chip.But for fear of missing out I'm wondering if it's possible (and if there's a good way) to learn to read die photos.
Any suggestions?
