  • Patent number: 11404365
    Abstract: An integrated circuit package includes a substrate, a flip chip die, and a capacitor. The flip chip die is attached to the substrate via die-to-substrate interconnects. The capacitor is attached to the flip chip die via capacitor-to-die interconnects so that the capacitor occupies a region between the flip chip die and the substrate. Such placement of the capacitor on a flip chip die has the advantage of reducing the distance between the capacitor and its core, thereby reducing unwanted line inductance and series resistance effects. Integrated circuit performance is thereby enhanced.
