Abstract:
Techniques and mechanisms to facilitate connection with one or more integrated circuit (IC) dies of a packaged device. In an embodiment, the packaged device includes a first substrate coupled to a first side of a package, and a second substrate coupled to a second side of the package opposite the first side. Circuitry, coupled via the first substrate to one or more IC dies disposed in the package, includes a circuit structure disposed at a cantilever portion of the first substrate. The cantilever portion extends past one or both of an edge of the first side and an edge of the second side. In another embodiment, a hardware interface disposed on the second substrate enables coupling of the packaged device to another device.

Abstract:
Embodiments include systems in packages (SiPs) and a method of forming the SiPs. A SiP includes a package substrate and a first modularized sub-package over the package substrate, where the first modularized sub-package includes a plurality of electrical components, a first mold layer, and a redistribution layer. The SiP also includes a stack of dies over the package substrate, where the first modularized sub-package is disposed between the stack of dies. The SiP further includes a plurality of interconnects coupled to the stack of dies, the first modularized sub-package, and the package substrate, wherein the redistribution layer of the first modularized sub-package couples the stack of dies to the package substrate with the plurality of interconnects. The SiP may enable the redistribution layer of the first modularized sub-package to couple the electrical components to the stacked dies and the package substrate without a solder interconnect.
