  • Publication number: 20190221546
    Abstract: Methods and systems for stacking multiple chips with high speed serialiser/deserialiser blocks are presented. These methods make use of Through Silicon Via (TSV) to connect the dice to each other, and to the external pads. The methods enable efficient multilayer stacking that simplifies design and manufacturing, and at the same time, ensure high speed operation of serialiser/deserialiser blocks, using the TSVs.

  • Patent number: 9893004
    Abstract: Integrated circuits are described which directly connect a semiconductor interposer to a motherboard or printed circuit board by way of large pitch connections. A stack of semiconductor interposers may be connected directly to one another by a variety of means and connected to a printed circuit board through only a ball grid array of solder bumps. The stack of semiconductor interposers may include one or more semiconductor interposers which are shifted laterally to enable directly electrical connections to intermediate semiconductor interposers. The top semiconductor interposer may have no electrical connections on the top to increase security by making electrical “taps” much more difficult. An electrically insulating layer may be incorporated between adjacent semiconductor interposers and cavities or air gaps may also be included within one or more semiconductor interposers.

  • Patent number: 9818680
    Abstract: Semiconductor packages are described which increase the density of electronic components within. The semiconductor package may incorporate interposers with cavities formed into the top and/or bottom. The cavities may then be used as locations for the electronic components. Alternatively, narrow spacer interposers may be used to space apart standard more laterally elongated interposers to form the indentations used to house the electronic components. The semiconductor package designs described herein may be used to reduce footprint, reduce profile and increase electronic component and transistor density for semiconductor products.
