    Abstract: In one embodiment, a printed circuit board includes a first circuit board portion comprising a set of first conducting layers and one or more plated through hole (PTH) vias formed through the first conducting layers and a second circuit board portion comprising a set of second conducting layers. The second circuit board portion has an area less than an area of the first circuit board portion, and the second circuit board portion is coupled to the first circuit board portion via a laminate layer such that the first and second conducting layers are parallel with one another. The printed circuit board further includes one or more PTH vias formed through the first and second conducting layers in an area of the printed circuit board where the first and second circuit board portions overlap.

    Abstract: Three-dimensional (3-D) volumetric board architectural design provides technical solutions to technical problems facing miniaturization of circuit boards. The 3-D volumetric architecture includes using more of the unused volume in the vertical dimension (e.g., Z-dimension) to increase the utilization of the total circuit board volume. The 3-D volumetric architecture is realized by mounting components on a first PCB and on a second PCB, and inverting and suspending the second PCB above the first PCB. The use of 3-D volumetric board architectural design further enables formation of a shielded FEMIE, providing shielding and improved volumetric use with little or no reduction in system performance or increase in system Z-height.

    Abstract: Semiconductor packages and a method of forming a semiconductor package are described. The semiconductor package has a foundation layer mounted on a motherboard. The semiconductor package also includes a hole in motherboard (HiMB) that is formed in the motherboard. The semiconductor package has one or more capacitors mounted on an electrical shield. The electrical shield may be embedded in the HiMB of the motherboard. Accordingly, the semiconductor package has capacitors vertically embedded between the electrical shield and the HiMB of the motherboard. The semiconductor package may also have one or more HiMB sidewalls formed on the HiMB, where each of the one or more HiMB sidewalls includes at least one or more plated through holes (PTHs) with an exposed layer. The PTHs may be electrically coupled to the capacitors as the capacitors are vertically embedded between the electrical shield sidewalls and the HiMB sidewalls (i.e., three-dimensional (3D) capacitors).

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for providing an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield for removable engagement with a printed circuit board (PCB). A shaped electrically conductive member has a substantially planar member portion with multiple lateral member edges. The sidewalls are disposed at respective lateral member edges and are substantially orthogonal to the substantially planar member portion. At least one of the sidewalls includes at least one first snap-fit latching feature to engage a respective complementary second snap-fit latching feature disposed at one or more of multiple peripheral portions of a PCB.

    Abstract: A system for board-to-board interconnect is described herein. The system includes a first printed circuit board (PCB) having a first recess along a first edge of the first PCB that exposes a first solder pad on a layer of the first PCB. The system also includes a second PCB having a second recess along a second edge of the second PCB that exposes a second solder pad on a layer of the second PCB. The second recess is complementary to the first recess to allow the first PCB to mate with the second PCB. The first solder pad is aligned with the second solder pad when the first PCB is mated with the second PCB. The system additionally includes an assembly configured to electronically couple the first solder pad with the second solder pad.
