Abstract:
A package substrate is disclosed. The package substrate includes a substrate core, a cavity below the substrate core that extends from a surface of a first resist layer to a bottom surface of the package substrate, and a first terminal and a second terminal in the first resist layer. The package substrate also includes one or more passive components that are coupled inside the cavity to the first terminal and the second terminal.
Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with a substrate assembly with an encapsulated magnetic feature for an inductor are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a substrate assembly may include a base substrate, a magnetic feature encapsulated within the base substrate, and a coil, wherein a portion of the coil extends through the magnetic feature. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Reliable microstrip routing arrangements for electronics components are described. In an example, a semiconductor apparatus includes a semiconductor die having a surface with an integrated circuit thereon coupled to contact pads of an uppermost metallization layer of a semiconductor package substrate by a plurality of conductive contacts. A plurality of discrete metal planes is disposed at the uppermost metallization layer of the semiconductor package substrate, each metal plane located, from a plan view perspective, at a corner of a perimeter of the semiconductor die. Microstrip routing is disposed at the uppermost metallization layer of the semiconductor package substrate, from the plan view perspective, outside of the perimeter of the semiconductor die.
Abstract:
The integration of pressure or inertial sensors into an integrated circuit fabrication and packaging flow is described. In one example, a diaphragm is formed by depositing a metal over a first dielectric layer. A second dielectric layer is formed over the diaphragm. A metal mesh layer is formed over the second dielectric. The first dielectric layer is etched under the diaphragm to form a cavity. The cavity is lined with a sealing layer. The cavity is covered to form a chamber adjoining the diaphragm, and the cover is sealed against the cavity.

Abstract:
Magnet placement is described for integrated circuit packages. In one example, a terminal is applied to a magnet. The magnet is then placed on a top layer of a substrate with solder between the terminal and the top layer, and the solder is reflowed to attach the magnet to the substrate.
Abstract:
Some example forms relate to an electronic package. The electronic package includes a first dielectric layer that includes an electrical trace formed on a surface of the first dielectric layer and a second dielectric layer on the surface of the first dielectric layer. The second dielectric layer includes an opening. The electrical trace is within the opening. The electronic package includes an electrical interconnect that fills the opening and extends above an upper surface of the second dielectric layer such that the electrically interconnect is electrically connected to the electrical trace on the first dielectric layer.
