  • Publication number: 20240136346
    Abstract: A semiconductor die package includes an inductor-capacitor (LC) semiconductor die that is directly bonded with a logic semiconductor die. The LC semiconductor die includes inductors and capacitors that are integrated into a single die. The inductors and capacitors of the LC semiconductor die may be electrically connected with transistors and other logic components on the logic semiconductor die to form a voltage regulator circuit of the semiconductor die package. The integration of passive components (e.g., the inductors and capacitors) of the voltage regulator circuit into a single semiconductor die reduces signal propagation distances in the voltage regulator circuit, which may increase the operating efficiency of the voltage regulator circuit, may reduce the formfactor for the semiconductor die package, may reduce parasitic capacitance and/or may reduce parasitic inductance in the voltage regulator circuit (thereby improving the performance of the voltage regulator circuit), among other examples.

    Abstract: A method, computer program product and system are provided for preloading debug information based on the presence of incremental source code files. Based on parsed input parameters to a source code debugger, a source code repository and a local storage area are searched for an incremental file. In response to the incremental file being located, a preload indicator in the incremental file, which is a source code file, is set. Based on the preload indicator being set, debug symbol data from the incremental file is merged to a preload symbol list. In response to receiving a command to examine the debug symbol data from the incremental file, the preload symbol list is searched for the requested debug symbol data.
