Abstract:
An integrated circuit (IC) package structure may include a substrate. The substrate may include a semiconductor bridge having a first surface directly on a surface of the substrate that faces a first semiconductor die and a second semiconductor die. The semiconductor bridge may be disposed within a cavity extending through a photo-sensitive layer on the surface of the substrate. The semiconductor bridge may have an exposed, second surface substantially flush with the photo-sensitive layer. The first semiconductor die and the second semiconductor die are supported by the substrate and coupled together through the semiconductor bridge.
Abstract:
Some novel features pertain to an integrated device that includes a substrate, a first interconnect coupled to the substrate, and a second interconnect surrounding the first interconnect. The second interconnect may be configured to provide an electrical connection to ground. In some implementations, the second interconnect includes a plate. In some implementations, the integrated device also includes a dielectric material between the first interconnect and the second interconnect. In some implementations, the integrated device also includes a mold surrounding the second interconnect. In some implementations, the first interconnect is configured to conduct a power signal in a first direction. In some implementations, the second interconnect is configured to conduct a grounding signal in a second direction. In some implementations, the second direction is different from the first direction. In some implementations, the integrated device may be a package-on-package (PoP) device.

Abstract:
Flexible film electrical-test substrates with at least one conductive contact post for integrated circuit (IC) bump(s) electrical testing, and related methods and testing apparatuses are disclosed. The backside structure of an electrical-test substrate comprises a flexible dielectric film structure. One or more fine-pitched conductive coupling posts are formed on conductive pads disposed on a front side of the flexible dielectric film structure through a fabrication process. A first pitch of the conductive coupling post(s) in the flexible dielectric film structure is provided to be the same or substantially the same as a second pitch of one or more bumps in an IC, such as die or interposer (e.g., forty (40) micrometers (μm) or less). This allows the conductive coupling post(s) to be placed into mechanical contact with at least one bump of the IC, point-by-point, during an electrical test to electrically testing of the IC.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for preventing warpage of a semiconductor substrate in a semiconductor package. A continuous or uninterrupted stiffener structure is designed with a recessed groove, such that passive components, such as, high density capacitors are housed within the recessed groove. The stiffener structure with the recessed groove is attached to the semiconductor substrate using anisotropic conductive film (ACF) or anisotropic conductive paste (ACP). The stiffener structure with the recessed groove surrounds one or more semiconductor devices that may be formed on the semiconductor substrate. The stiffener structure with the recessed groove does not extend beyond horizontal boundaries of the semiconductor substrate.
Abstract:
Provided herein is an integrated device that includes a substrate, a die, a heat-dissipation layer located between the substrate and the die, and a first interconnect configured to couple the die to the heat-dissipation layer. The heat-dissipation layer may be configured to provide an electrical path for a ground signal. The first interconnect may be further configured to conduct heat from the die to the heat-dissipation layer. The integrated device may also include a second interconnect configured to couple the die to the substrate. The second interconnect may be further configured to conduct a power signal between the die and the substrate. The integrated device may also include a dielectric layer located between the heat-dissipation layer and the substrate, and a solder-resist layer located between the die and the heat-dissipation layer.
Abstract:
A substrate includes a plurality of vias that are lined with dielectric polymer having a substantially uniform thickness. This substantial uniform thickness provides a lumen within each dielectric-polymer-layer-lined via that is substantially centered within the via. Subsequent deposition of metal into the lumen for each dielectric-polymer-layer-lined via thus provides conductive vias having substantially centered metal conductors.

The base portion includes a dielectric layer, and a set of redistribution metal layers. In some implementations, the integrated device further includes an encapsulation material that encapsulates the first die. In some implementations, the integrated device further includes a second die coupled to the first surface of the base portion. In some implementations, the integrated device further includes a set of interconnects on the base portion, the set of interconnects electrically coupling the first die and the second die. In some implementations, the first die includes a first set of interconnect pillars and the second die includes a second set of interconnect pillars.
