    Abstract: “Hybrid” transmission line circuits employing multiple interconnect levels for the propagation, or return, of a single signal line across a package length are described. In package transmission line circuit embodiments, a signal line employs co-located traces in two different interconnect levels that are electrically coupled together. In further embodiments, a reference plane is provided above, below or co-planar with at least one of the co-locate traces. In embodiments, a balanced signal line pair includes first and second co-located traces in two adjacent interconnect levels as a propagation signal line and third and fourth co-located traces in the two adjacent interconnect levels as a return signal line with a ground plane co-planar with, and/or above and/or below the two adjacent interconnect levels.

    Abstract: Drive and startup circuits are described particularly suitable for use with a switched capacitor divider. In one example, a drive circuit has a level shifter coupled to a gate of each switch of a switched capacitor drive circuit to couple alternating current into the respective gate, a positive phase low side driver coupled to each level shifter to drive the gates of the top switch path through the respective level shifters, and a negative phase low side driver coupled to each level shifter to drive gates of the bottom switch path through the respective level shifters. A startup circuit, such as a capacitive soft start circuit may be used to slow the application of the current to each switch.

In another embodiment, the through-body-vias may pass through a dielectric material disposed in a plug in the body of the die. In yet another aspect, a transformer may be formed by coupling multiple inductors formed using through-body-vias. In still another aspect, a three-dimensional inductor may include conductors formed of stacks of on chip metallization layers and conductive through-layer-vias disposed in insulation layers between metallization layers. Other embodiments are described.

    Abstract: Series switches for power delivery. A regulator operated as a current source is arranged in parallel with a switched capacitor divider. A switched capacitor divider is configured in series with a plurality of linear regulators with each regulating one of a plurality of voltage outputs from the switched capacitor divider. In another embodiment, a series switch bridge has a first pair of switches connected in series with a second pair of switches across a voltage input, each switch within a pair of switches is switched in-phase with the other while the first pair of switches is switched out of phase with the second pair of switches. A balancing capacitor is coupled across one switch in both the first and second pair to be in parallel when either of the pair of switches is closed to reduce a charge imbalance between the switches.
