Abstract: A multiple die package for integrated circuits is disclosed. An insulator layer is provided and one or more vias are formed within it. The insulator may be provided without vias, and vias formed later. At least one integrated circuit is provided and electrically coupled to at least one lead of a first leadframe overlying one surface of the insulator layer. At least one second integrated circuit is provided and electrically coupled to a second leadframe overlying a second surface of the insulator layer. Electrical connections between the two leadframes and the first and second integrated circuits are made through the insulator, at selected locations, by coupling at least one lead of the first and second leadframes one to another. The leads of the first and second leadframe may be physically coupled by a welding process within vias in the insulator. A removable storage card package is also described.

Abstract: A multimedia device enables playlist navigation of digital multimedia content using a media player engine and a media application. The media player engine establishes a streaming media session with a content source via a standard control channel over a network, and receives, from the content source, streaming digital multimedia content representative of a current media clip within a playlist during the streaming media session. The media application is in communication with the content source via an external interface over the network and outside the standard control channel between the media player engine and the content source. The media application generates a playlist navigation message to the content source to navigate the playlist and control the streaming digital multimedia content via the external interface.
