Abstract:
Embodiments that allow multi-chip interconnect using organic bridges are described. In some embodiments an organic package substrate has an embedded organic bridge. The organic bridge can have interconnect structures that allow attachment of die to be interconnected by the organic bridge. In some embodiments, the organic bridge comprises a metal routing layer, a metal pad layer and interleaved organic polymer dielectric layers but without a substrate layer. Embodiments having only a few layers may be embedded into the top layer or top few layers of the organic package substrate. Methods of manufacture are also described.
Abstract:
Embodiments of substrates, semiconductor devices and methods are shown that include elongated structures to improve conduction. Elongated structures and methods are also shown that provide electromagnetic isolation to reduce noise in adjacent components.

Abstract:
A coreless pin-grid array (PGA) substrate includes PGA pins that are integral to the PGA substrate without the use of solder. A process of making the coreless PGA substrate integrates the PGA pins by forming a build-up layer upon the PGA pins such that vias make direct contact to pin heads of the PGA pins.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device substrate includes a front section and back section that are laminated cores disposed on a front- and back surfaces of a first core. The first core has a cylindrical plated through hole that has been metal plated and filled with air-core material. The front- and back sections have laser-drilled tapered vias that are filled with conductive material and that are coupled to the plated through hole. The back section includes an integral inductor coil that communicates to the front section. The first core and the laminated-cores form a hybrid-core semiconductor device substrate with an integral inductor coil.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention include an electrical package and methods of forming the package. In one embodiment, the electrical package may include a first package layer. A plurality of signal lines with a first thickness may be formed on the first package layer. Additionally, a power plane with a second thickness may be formed on the first package layer. According to an embodiment, the second thickness is greater than the first thickness. Embodiments of the invention may form the power plane with a lithographic patterning and deposition process that is different than the lithographic patterning and deposition process used to form the plurality of signal lines. In an embodiment, the power plane may be formed concurrently with vias that electrically couple the signal lines to the next routing layer.

Abstract:
Devices and methods including a though-hole inductor for an electronic package are shown herein. Examples of the through-hole inductor include a substrate including at least one substrate layer. Each substrate layer including a dielectric layer having a first surface and a second surface. An aperture included in the dielectric layer is located from the first surface to the second surface. The aperture includes an aperture wall from the first surface to the second surface. A conductive layer is deposited on the first surface, second surface, and the aperture wall. At least one coil is cut from the conductive layer and located on the aperture wall.
Abstract:
A circuit board upon which to mount an integrated circuit chip may include a first interconnect zone on the surface of the circuit board having first contacts with a first pitch, and a second interconnect zone, surrounding the first zone, having second contacts or traces with a second pitch that is smaller than the first pitch. The first contacts may have a design rule (DR) for direct chip attachment (DCA) to an integrated circuit chip. The first contacts may be formed by bonding a sacrificial substrate having the first contacts to a surface of the board; or by laser scribing trenches where the conductor will be plated to create the first contacts. Such a board allows DCA of smaller footprint processor chips for devices, such as tablet computers, cell phones, smart phones, and value phone devices.
