Abstract:
The present application discloses various implementations of a semiconductor package including an organic substrate and one or more interposers having through-semiconductor vias (TSVs). Such a semiconductor package may include a contiguous organic substrate having a lower substrate segment including first and second pluralities of lower interconnect pads, the second plurality of lower interconnect pads being disposed in an opening of the lower substrate segment. The contiguous organic substrate may also include an upper substrate segment having an upper width and including first and second pluralities of upper interconnect pads. In addition, the semiconductor package may include at least one interposer having TSVs for electrically connecting the first and second pluralities of lower interconnect pads to the first and second pluralities of upper interconnect pads. The interposer has an interposer width less than the upper width of the upper substrate segment.

Abstract:
An interface substrate is disclosed which includes an interposer having through-semiconductor vias. An upper and a lower organic substrate are further built around the interposer. The disclosed interface substrate enables the continued use of low cost and widely deployed organic substrates for semiconductor packages while providing several advantages. The separation of the organic substrate into upper and lower substrates enables the cost effective matching of fabrication equipment. By providing an opening in one of the organic substrates, one or more semiconductor dies may be attached to exposed interconnect pads coupled to through-semiconductor vias of the interposer, enabling the use of flip chips with high-density microbump arrays and the accommodation of dies with varied bump pitches. By providing the opening specifically in the upper organic substrate, a package-on-package structure with optimized height may also be provided.
