  • Patent number: 11335616
    Abstract: A semiconductor package may include a composite magnetic inductor that is formed integral with the semiconductor substrate. The composite magnetic inductor may include a composite magnetic resin layer and a plurality of conductive layers arranged such that the composite magnetic resin layer is interleaved between successive conductive layers. The resultant composite magnetic inductor may be disposed between dielectric layers. A core layer may be disposed proximate the composite magnetic inductor. A build-up layer may be disposed proximate the core layer or proximate the composite magnetic inductor in a coreless semiconductor substrate. A semiconductor die may couple to the build-up layer. The composite magnetic inductor beneficially provides a greater inductance than external inductors coupled to the semiconductor package.

  • Patent number: 10049971
    Abstract: An apparatus is described that includes a substrate and a mold compound disposed on the substrate. The semiconductor die is embedded within the mold compound and is electrically coupled to lands on the substrate. Solder balls are disposed around the semiconductor die on the substrate. Each of the solder balls have a solid coating thereon. The solid coating contains a cleaning agent to promote its solder ball's coalescence with another solder ball. Respective vias are formed in the mold compound that expose the solder balls and their respective solid coatings. In combined or alternate embodiments outer edges of the mold compound have smaller thickness than regions of the mold compound between the vias and the semiconductor die. In combined or alternate embodiments micro-channels exist between the solder balls and the mold compound.

  • Patent number: 9247686
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide various polymeric matrices that may be used as a binder matrix for polymer solder hybrid thermal interface materials. In alternative embodiments the binder matrix material may be phophozene, perfluoro ether, polyether, or urethane. For one embodiment, the binder matrix is selected to provide improved adhesion to a variety of interfaces. For an alternative embodiment the binder matrix is selected to provide low contact resistance. In alternative embodiments, polymeric materials containing fusible and non-fusible particles may be used in application where heat removal is desired and is not restricted to thermal interface materials for microelectronic devices.

  • Patent number: 9024453
    Abstract: Interconnect packaging technology for direct-chip-attach, package-on-package, or first level and second level interconnect stack-ups with reduced Z-heights relative to ball technology. In embodiments, single or multi-layered interconnect structures are deposited in a manner that permits either or both of the electrical and mechanical properties of specific interconnects within a package to be tailored, for example based on function. Functional package interconnects may vary one of more of at least material layer composition, layer thickness, number of layers, or a number of materials to achieve a particular function, for example based on an application of the component(s) interconnected or an application of the assembly as a whole. In embodiments, parameters of the multi-layered laminated structures are varied dependent on the interconnect location within an area of a substrate, for example with structures having higher ductility at interconnect locations subject to higher stress.

  • Patent number: 8701281
    Abstract: Surface-active dopants are added to a portion of a circuit package before a reflow process to promote wetting and reduce the formation of solder bump bridges. The circuit package has a solder element that electrically connects the circuit package to a substrate. A reflow process is performed to attach the solder element to a pad on the circuit package. During the reflow process, the surface-active dopants diffuse to the surface of the solder element and form an oxide passivation layer on the surface of the solder element.
