Abstract: Described herein are integrated circuit devices that include semiconductor devices near the center of the device, rather than towards the top or bottom of the device. In this arrangement, heat can become trapped inside the device. Metal fill, such as copper, is formed within a portion of the device, e.g., over the semiconductor devices and any front side interconnect structures, to transfer heat away from the semiconductor devices and towards a heat spreader.

Abstract: Described herein are integrated circuit devices that include semiconductor devices near the center of the device, rather than towards the top or bottom of the device, and integrated inductors formed over the semiconductor devices. Power delivery to the device is on the opposite side of the semiconductor devices. The integrated inductors may be used for power step-down to reduce device thickness and/or a number of power rails.

Abstract: Hollow balls with a hard shell, for example the game ball used in the pickle ball game, are used in various racquet games. One example of such hollow balls is the game ball used in the pickle ball game. These hollow balls break after a period of use or when excessive force is applied to the hollow ball. A game ball is described herein with a first plurality of apertures and a second plurality of apertures. Each of the first plurality of apertures is dimensionally different from each of the second plurality of apertures and inter-configured to reduce damage to the game ball during use thereof.
