Abstract:
Ring-in-ring stiffeners on a semiconductor package substrate includes a passive device that is seated across the ring stiffeners. The ring-in-ring stiffeners are also electrically coupled to traces in the semiconductor package substrate through electrically conductive adhesive that bonds a given ring stiffener to the semiconductor package substrate. The passive device is embedded between the two ring stiffeners to create a smaller X-Y footprint as well as a lower Z-direction profile.
Abstract:
A semiconductor package apparatus includes a passive device that is embedded in a bottom package stiffener, and a top stiffener is stacked above the bottom package stiffener. Electrical connection through the passive device is accomplished through the stiffeners to a semiconductor die that is seated upon an infield region of the semiconductor package substrate.
Abstract:
Techniques for reducing multi-reflection noise via compensation structures are described herein. An example system includes a capacitive component. The example system further includes a capacitive compensation structure coupled to two ends of the capacitive component. The example system includes a partially meshed ground plane coupled to one side of a dielectric substrate. The example system also includes one or more signal conductors coupled to another side of the dielectric substrate and electrically coupled to the capacitive component. The one or more signal conductors are located parallel to a meshed length of the partially meshed ground plane.
