    Abstract: Flexible film electrical-test substrates with at least one conductive contact post for integrated circuit (IC) bump(s) electrical testing, and related methods and testing apparatuses are disclosed. The backside structure of an electrical-test substrate comprises a flexible dielectric film structure. One or more fine-pitched conductive coupling posts are formed on conductive pads disposed on a front side of the flexible dielectric film structure through a fabrication process. A first pitch of the conductive coupling post(s) in the flexible dielectric film structure is provided to be the same or substantially the same as a second pitch of one or more bumps in an IC, such as die or interposer (e.g., forty (40) micrometers (μm) or less). This allows the conductive coupling post(s) to be placed into mechanical contact with at least one bump of the IC, point-by-point, during an electrical test to electrically testing of the IC.

    Abstract: Some implementations provide a substrate that includes several traces, a solder resist layer covering the several traces, and a testing pad coupled to a trace from the several traces. The testing pad is at least partially exposed and at least partially free of the solder resist layer when a chip is coupled to the substrate. In some implementations, the several traces have a pitch that is 100 microns (nm) or less. In some implementations, the substrate is a package substrate. In some implementations, the package substrate is a package substrate on which a thermal compression flip chip is mounted during an assembly process. In some implementations, the testing pad is free of a direct connection with a bonding component of the chip when the chip is coupled to the substrate. In some implementations, the bonding component is one of a solder ball.

    Abstract: Antenna modules employing a package substrate with a vertically-integrated patch antenna(s), and related fabrication methods. The antenna module includes a radio-frequency (RF) IC (RFIC) package that includes one or more RFICs for supporting RF communications and a package substrate that includes one or more metallization layers with formed metal interconnects for routing of signals between the RFICs and an antenna(s) in the package substrate. The package substrate includes one or more patch antennas that are planar-shaped and vertically integrated in a plurality of metallization layers in the package substrate, behaving electromagnetically as a patch antenna. In this manner, the patch antenna(s) can be formed as a vertically-integrated structure in the package substrate with fabrication methods used for fabricating metal interconnects and vias (e.g., a micro via fabrication process) in package substrates.

    Abstract: An antenna-in-package (AiP) module is described. The AiP module includes an antenna sub-module. The antenna sub-module is composed of a first package substrate including an antenna side surface having a first group of antennas placed along a first portion of the antenna side surface and a second group of antennas placed along a second portion of the antenna side surface. The first package substrate is composed of a non-linear portion between the first group of antennas and the second group of antennas. The AiP module includes an active circuit sub-module placed on an active side surface of the first package substrate opposite the first group of antennas or the second group of antennas on the antenna side surface of the first package substrate. The active circuit includes a power management (PM) chip and a radio frequency (RF) chip coupled to a second package substrate coupled to the first package substrate.
