  • Publication number: 20230298964
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method of making are disclosed for an improved interposer comprises a wide bandgap semiconductor interposer such as silicon carbide (SiC) with a plurality of connectors formed in situ within the interposer for connecting the integrated circuit die to the substrate. The plurality of connectors may include carbon electrical connectors and/or optical wave guide connectors formed an angle within the interposer. The improved interposer may include a with the integrated circuit die disposed in the recess and thermally coupled to the silicon carbide (SiC) interposer for providing a heat sink for the integrated circuit die. A first and a second recess may be formed in separate surfaces of the silicon carbide (SiC) interposer enabling multiple interposers to be stacked upon one another.

  • Publication number: 20230135165
    Abstract: A device and method for providing enhanced bridge structures is disclosed. A set of conducting and insulating layers are deposited and lithographically processed. The conducting layers have uFLS routing. A bridge with uFLS contacts and die disposed on the underlying structure such that the die are connected with the uFLS contacts and uFLS routing. For core-based structures, the layers are formed after the bridge is placed on the underlying structure and the die connected to the bridge through intervening conductive layers. For coreless structures, the layers are formed over the bridge and carrier, which is removed prior to bonding the die to the bridge, and the die bonded directly to the bridge.

  • Patent number: 10553453
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the disclosure are directed to a semiconductor package and a method for fabrication of the semiconductor package. Further, disclosed herein are systems and methods that are directed to using a photoimagable dielectric (PID) layer with substantially similar mechanical properties as that of a mold material. The disclosure can be used, for example, in the context of bumpless laserless embedded substrate structures (BLESS) technology for wafer/panel level redistribution layer (RDL) and/or fan-out packaging applications. The disclosed embodiments may reduce the need for multiple dry resist film (DFR) lamination steps during various processing steps for semiconductor packaging and can also facilitate multiple layer counts due to the availability of thin PID materials.
