Abstract: Fan Out Package-On-Package (PoP) assemblies in which a second chip is adhered to a non-active side of a first chip. An active side of the first chip embedded in a first package material may be electrically coupled through one or more redistribution layers that fan out to package interconnects on a first side of the POP. A second chip may be adhered, with a second package material, to the non-active side of the first chip. An active side of the second chip may be electrically coupled to the package interconnects through a via structure extending through the first package material. Second interconnects between the second chip, or a package thereof, may contact the via structure. Use of the second package material as an adhesive may improve positional stability of the second chip to facilitate wafer-level assembly techniques.

Abstract: Electronics devices, having vertical and lateral redistribution interconnects, are disclosed. An electronics device comprises an electronics component (e.g., die, substrate, integrated device, etc.), a die(s), and a separately formed redistribution connection layer electrically coupling the die(s) to the electronics component. The redistribution connection layer comprises dielectric layers on either side of at least one redistribution layer. The dielectric layers comprise openings that expose contact pads of the at least one redistribution layer for electrically coupling die(s) and components to each other via the redistribution connection layer. The redistribution connection layer is flexible and wrap/folded around side edges of die(s) to minimize vertical vias. Various devices and associated processes are provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for fabricating a semiconductor inductor that includes a coil deposited on a stop layer that is deposited on a sacrificial substrate. The semiconductor inductor may be fabricated on a silicon wafer and singulated. The sacrificial substrate beneficially provides structural support for the singulated semiconductor inductor. The singulated semiconductor inductor advantageously requires minimal active die surface area. The removal of the sacrificial substrate after coupling to the active die beneficially reduces the overall thickness (or height) of the semiconductor package, providing a decided advantage in low profile, portable, electronic devices.
