摘要:
A capacitor (FIGS. 6-9) includes one or more extended surface lands (604, 704, 804, 904, FIGS. 6-9). In one embodiment, each extended surface land is a land on a top or bottom surface of the capacitor, having a land length that is equal to at least 30% of the width (614, FIG. 6) of the capacitor or 20% of the length (914, FIG. 9) of the capacitor. When embedded within an integrated circuit package (1102, FIG. 11), two or more vias (1112) can be electrically connected to the extended surface lands (1108).

To accommodate the operational and structural requirements of high performance integrated circuits, an integrated circuit package includes conductive trenches that are formed within a substrate. The trenches provide increased current carrying capacity, lower inductance, higher capacitance, and single and/or dual reference planes for signal conductors. Trench structures can be provided at various locations within the substrate, such as adjacent to signal conductors and embedded capacitors, as well as on the substrate periphery to couple the package to a socket. Trenches can be formed by routing, drilling, imprinting, and/or microperforation. Methods of fabrication, as well as application of the package to an electronic assembly and to an electronic system, are also described.

An electronic package (302, FIG. 3) includes one or more capacitors (308) embedded within one or more layers (310) of the package. The embedded capacitors are discrete devices, such as integrated circuit capacitors (FIGS. 17-18) or ceramic capacitors. During the package build-up process, the capacitors are mounted (410, FIG. 4) to a package layer, and a non-conductive layer is applied (412) over the capacitors. When the build-up process is completed, the capacitor's terminals (604, 608, FIG. 6) are electrically connected to the top surface of the package. The embedded capacitor structure can be used in an integrated circuit package (1904, FIG. 19), an interposer (1906), and/or a printed circuit board (1908).
