    摘要: An electronic package, such as a ball grid array (“BGA”) package, includes a high speed signal trace formed at a conductive layer and a corresponding reference plane formed at another conductive layer. The reference plane includes a cutout region formed therein; the cutout region is positioned over the signal solder ball to which the high speed signal trace is coupled. The lateral center point of the cutout region is offset relative to the lateral center point of the signal solder ball. The offset configuration reduces the capacitance between the signal solder ball and the reference plane and improves the high frequency transmission characteristics of the electronic package.

    摘要: An interconnect via structure according to the present invention can be used to support high frequency broadband signal transmission. The interconnect vias progressively increase in size and pitch from the signal source layer of the package substrate to the terminal pad layer of the package substrate. Each interconnect via includes a plurality of conductive sections formed at different substrate layers. At each substrate layer, the size and pitch of the vias result in a specified impedance. In a practical embodiment, the via impedance at each substrate layer is constant (e.g., 50 ohms). The interconnect structure can maintain a constant impedance while transitioning from a relatively narrow pitch at the signal source layer to a relatively wide pitch at the terminal layer, which may correspond to the pitch of the package substrate solder balls.

    摘要: An output of a voltage regulator is a core voltage line that runs adjacent to a die attach area on a packaging substrate. An input of the voltage regulator is typically coupled to a power supply which, in one embodiment, is also an I/O voltage line that runs adjacent to the die attach area. In one embodiment, the core voltage line is shaped as a ring encircling the die attach area on the packaging substrate. In another embodiment, the I/O voltage line is also shaped as a ring encircling the die attach area on the packaging substrate. Further, a semiconductor die having at least one I/O Vdd bond pad and at least one core Vdd bond pad can be mounted in the die attach area. The I/O Vdd bond pad and the core Vdd bond pad can be connected, respectively, to the I/O voltage ring and the core voltage ring.

    摘要: An electronic device package includes a multilayer substrate having an interconnect structure configured to propagate a high frequency signal from one metal layer to another metal layer. The configuration and layout of the interconnect structure, particularly the arrangement of the reference vias associated with the signal via, is selected such that a desired filter response is achieved. The filter response is realized without any additional capacitor or inductor components. Thus, the natural discontinuity created by the vias and the inherent parasitic capacitance and inductance associated with the vias can be utilized to create a desired lowpass or bandpass filter response.
