Abstract: An item may include fabric having insulating and conductive yarns or other strands of material. The conductive strands may form signal paths. Electrical components can be mounted to the fabric. Each electrical component may have an electrical device such as a semiconductor die that is mounted on an interposer substrate. The interposer may have contacts that are soldered to the conductive strands. A protective cover may encapsulate portions of the electrical component. To create a robust connection between the electrical component and the fabric, the conductive strands may be threaded through recesses in the electrical component. The recesses may be formed in the interposer or may be formed in a protective cover on the interposer. Conductive material in the recess may be used to electrically and/or mechanically connect the conductive strand to a bond pad in the recess. Thermoplastic material may be used to seal the solder joint.

Abstract: System-in-package structures and methods of assembly are described. In an embodiment, a system-in-package includes opposing circuit boards, each including mounted components overlapping the mounted components of the opposing circuit board. A gap between the opposing circuit boards may be filled with a molding material, that additionally encapsulates the overlapping mounted components. In some embodiments, the opposing circuit boards are stacked on one another using one or more interposers that may provide mechanical or electrical connection.
