  • Patent number: 11756941
    Abstract: Embodiments include semiconductor packages. A semiconductor package includes a plurality of dies on a package substrate, and a plurality of smart dies on the package substrate, where the plurality of smart dies include a plurality of interconnects and a plurality of capacitors. The semiconductor package also includes a plurality of routing lines coupled to the dies and the smart dies, where the routing lines are communicatively coupled to the interconnects of the smart dies, where each of the dies has at least two or more routing lines to communicatively couple the dies together, and where one of the routing lines is via the interconnects of the smart dies. The capacitors may be a plurality of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors. The dies may be a plurality of active dies. The routing lines may communicatively couple first and second active dies to first and second smart dies.

  • Patent number: 10614774
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for an integrated circuit (IC) chip to generate a clock signal for use by one or more resources of the IC chip. In an embodiment, a clock signal is generated with phase-locked loop (PLL) circuitry of an IC chip based on a cyclical signal which is provided to the IC chip by an external source. A supply voltage provided to the PLL circuitry is automatically updated based on one of a requested frequency for the clock signal, a frequency of the received cyclical signal, or a voltage of a control signal used by a voltage controlled oscillator of the PLL circuitry. In another embodiment, a series of incremental changes to a frequency of the clock signal is automatically performed according to a predefined overclocking scheme or underclocking scheme.
