Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of a lower integrated circuit (IC) package structure for a package-on-package (PoP) assembly. The lower IC package structure includes an interposer having pads to mate with terminals of an upper IC package. An encapsulant material is disposed in the lower IC package, and this encapsulant may be disposed proximate one or more IC die. An upper IC package may be coupled with the lower IC package to form a PoP assembly. Such a PoP assembly may be disposed on a mainboard or other circuit board, and may form part of a computing system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Stiffener technology for electronic device packages is disclosed. A stiffener for a package substrate can include a top portion configured to be affixed to a top surface of a package substrate. The stiffener for a package substrate can also include a lateral portion extending from the top portion and configured to be disposed about a lateral side of the package substrate. An electronic device package and associated systems and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Chip carriers having variably-sized solder pads, and integrated circuit packages incorporating such chip carriers are described. In an example, an integrated circuit package includes an integrated circuit electrically connected with a chip carrier having solder pads of different sizes. The integrated circuit may deliver high speed signals to smaller solder pads and low speed signals to larger solder pads. More particularly, the solder pads having smaller pad dimensions may better match impedance of a high speed signal line as compared to the solder pads having larger pad dimensions.

Abstract: In some embodiments, selective electroless plating for electronic substrates is presented. In this regard, a method is introduced including receiving a coreless substrate strip, attaching solder balls to a backside of the coreless substrate strip, and forming a backside stiffening mold amongst the solder balls. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
