Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe integrated circuit (IC) package assemblies and methods of fabricating IC package assemblies. These embodiments include dies embedded in embedding substrates to provide larger pitch interconnects to facilitate coupling to substrates or circuit boards through flip chip techniques. The embedding substrates may contain conductive pathways for coupling die contacts to larger pitch contacts located on the embedding substrate. By embedding the dies in the embedding substrates, dies having smaller pitch contacts can be used in package assemblies with larger pitch components without the need for silicon interposers and without having to utilize more stringent pick and place operations. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
