Abstract: A power converter is embodied on a semiconductor substrate member and has a first region with a passive electrical component with a first electrically conductive layer pattern of an electrically conductive material and a second electrically conductive layer pattern of an electrically conductive material deposited on respective sides of the semiconductor substrate member. A trench or through-hole is formed (by etching) in the substrate within the first region, and the electrically conductive material is deposited at least on a bottom portion of the trench or on a sidewall of the through-hole and electrically connected to one or both of the first conductive layer pattern and the second conductive layer pattern. A second region has an active semiconductor component integrated with the semiconductor substrate by being fabricated by a semiconductor fabrication process. There is also provided a power supply, such as a DC-DC converter, embedded the semiconductor substrate member.

Abstract: A power converter assembly includes an interposer; an integrated circuit, such as a power management integrated circuit, arranged in a cavity or pocket of the interposer or monolithically integrated in the interposer; one or more electrical components stacked on a top side of the interposer; and one or more vias arranged in the interposer forming electrical connections in the interposer, wherein the integrated circuit and the electrical components are configured to perform a power conversion of an input voltage to an output voltage.
