Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards techniques and configurations for integrated circuit package assemblies including a glass solder mask layer and/or bridge. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes one or more build-up layers having electrical routing features and a solder mask layer composed of a glass material, the solder mask layer being coupled with the one or more build-up layers and having openings disposed in the solder mask layer to allow coupling of package-level interconnect structures with the electrical routing features through the one or more openings. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present description relate to the field of fabricating microelectronic structures. The microelectronic structures may include a glass routing structure formed separately from a trace routing structure, wherein the glass routing structure is incorporated with the trace routing substrate, either in a laminated or embedded configuration. Also disclosed are embodiments of a microelectronic package including at least one microelectronic device disposed proximate to the glass routing structure of the microelectronic substrate and coupled with the microelectronic substrate by a plurality of interconnects. Further, disclosed are embodiments of a microelectronic structure including at least one microelectronic device embedded within a microelectronic encapsulant having a glass routing structure attached to the microelectronic encapsulant and a trace routing structure formed on the glass routing structure.
Abstract:
Disclosed are embodiments of a substrate for an integrated circuit (IC) device. The substrate includes a core comprised of two or more discrete glass layers that have been bonded together. A separate bonding layer may be disposed between adjacent glass layers to couple these layers together. The substrate may also include build-up structures on opposing sides of the multi-layer glass core, or perhaps on one side of the core. Electrically conductive terminals may be formed on both sides of the substrate, and an IC die may be coupled with the terminals on one side of the substrate. The terminals on the opposing side may be coupled with a next-level component, such as a circuit board. One or more conductors extend through the multi-layer glass core, and one or more of the conductors may be electrically coupled with the build-up structures disposed over the core. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
