A hybrid interconnect includes a through silicon via and a wire bond. Hybrid interconnects enable better layout of a stacked IC by combining benefits from both interconnect technologies. In one hybrid interconnect, wire bonds couples a second tier die mounted on a first tier die to a redistribution layer in the first tier die. Through silicon vias in the first tier die are coupled to the wire bonds to provide communication. In another hybrid interconnect, a wire bond couples a redistribution layer on a first tier die to a packaging substrate on which the first tier die is mounted. The redistribution layer couples to a second tier die mounted on the first tier die to provide a power supply to the second tier die. Through silicon vias in the first tier die couple to the second tier die to provide communication from the packaging substrate to the second tier die.
