Abstract:
Tunable diplexers in three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuits (IC) (3DIC) are disclosed. In one embodiment, the tunable diplexer may be formed by providing one of either a varactor or a variable inductor in the diplexer. The variable nature of the varactor or the variable inductor allows a notch in the diplexer to be tuned so as to select a band stop to eliminate harmonics at a desired frequency as well as control the cutoff frequency of the pass band. By stacking the elements of the diplexer into three dimensions, space is conserved and a variety of varactors and inductors are able to be used.

In an illustrative example, an apparatus includes a passive-on-glass (POG) device integrated within a glass substrate. The apparatus further includes a semiconductor die integrated within the glass substrate.
Abstract:
Some implementations provide a device that includes a passive component and a substrate coupled to the passive component, where a surface of the substrate comprises a first irradiated portion. In some implementations, the first irradiated portion is located in an offset portion of the substrate. Some implementations provide an integrated device that includes a device layer and a substrate coupled to the device layer, where a surface of the substrate comprises a first irradiated portion. In some implementations, the first irradiated portion is located in an offset portion of the substrate.

An apparatus includes a device that includes at least one layer. The at least one layer includes an inter-device stress compensation pattern configured to reduce an amount of inter-device warpage prior to the device being detached from another device.
Abstract:
A diplexer includes a substrate having a set of through substrate vias. The diplexer also includes a first set of traces on a first surface of the substrate. The first traces are coupled to the through substrate vias. The diplexer further includes a second set of traces on a second surface of the substrate that is opposite the first surface. The second traces are coupled to opposite ends of the set of through substrate vias. The through substrate vias and the traces also operate as a 3D inductor. The diplexer also includes a capacitor supported by the substrate.

Abstract:
A two-stage power delivery network includes a voltage regulator and an interposer. The interposer includes a packaging substrate having an embedded inductor. The embedded inductor includes a set of traces and a set of through substrate vias at opposing ends of the traces. The interposer is coupled to the voltage regulator. The two-stage power delivery network also includes a semiconductor die supported by the packaging substrate. The two-stage power delivery network also includes a capacitor that is supported by the packaging substrate. The capacitor is operable to provide a decoupling capacitance associated with the semiconductor die and a capacitance to reduce a switching noise of the voltage regulator.
