    Abstract: A method and apparatus for repair of a multi-chip module, such as a memory module, is provided, where at least one redundant or auxiliary chip attach location is provided on the substrate of the multi-chip module. The auxiliary chip attach location preferably provides contacts for attachment of more than one type of replacement semiconductor chip. Accordingly, when one or more chips on the multi-chip module are found to be completely or partially defective, at least one replacement chip can be selected and attached to the auxiliary location to provide additional memory to bring the module back to its design capacity.

    Abstract: The inductance of the capacitor is reduced by connecting the capacitor directly to a via. In one embodiment inductance of a capacitor is reduced by a plurality of via, the number of via greater than the number of electrical couplings from the voltage pad to the voltage plane. In one embodiment the capacitor has a ground pad of a minimum size. In another embodiment the capacitor is electrically coupled to a trace having a length reduced to minimize inductance.

    Abstract: A via plug layout structure for connecting different metallic layers. The structure includes a plurality of via plugs arranged in a fan-shaped pattern and a plurality of empty bars positioned between a single via plug and the fanned-out via plugs so that incoming current to the single via plug is equally distributed to every one of the fanned-out via plug and current stress in each fanned-out via plug is identical. Hence, via plugs having particularly serious electromigration problem can be discovered. In addition, single via plug having different critical dimension can be fabricated so that maximum critical dimension sustainable by the via plug is determined after an electromigration test.

    Abstract: Parallel surfaces are interfacially mechanically bonded and optionally electrically, and/or thermally connected using an interposer fabricated from a flexible laminates, such as flex PWB. The bond/connection points for the device made on one side of the interposer are displaced in the X and Y axis from the bond/connection points on the other or obverse side for the interposer and the board. The optional electrical/thermal connection through the interposer is made through one or more traces and vias in the flex board.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a microstrip arrangement comprising a first and a second microstrip conductor. The two microstrip conductors have essentially the same dimensions in their longitudinal direction and transverse direction, and are galvanically interconnected by means of at least one connection. The two microstrip conductors also extend essentially parallel to one another on either side of a dielectric material. As a result of this design of the microstrip arrangement, the field losses and also other influences caused by the dielectric material will be very considerably reduced, and in practice a resultant microstrip arrangement is obtained, which, with regard to its electrical performance, appears to be suspended in the air. Preferred embodiments comprise a microstrip antenna, a circuit board and a conductor application.

    Abstract: Described is a method for minimizing switching noise in the high- and mid-frequency range on printed circuit cards or boards by means of a plurality of surface mounted decoupling capacitors. A novel configuration and implementation of capacitor pads including the connecting vias is also presented. As a result the parasitic inductance of the pads and vias can be significantly reduced. Thus the effectiveness of the decoupling capacitors in the mid and high frequency range can be increased, the voltage drop can be reduced and the system performance can be increased. Several design rules for the new pad via configuration lead to the significant reduction of the parasitic inductance. The proposal is especially important for high integrated system designs on boards and cards combined with increased cycle times.
