  • Publication number: 20240163038
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing the transmit power of wireless communication devices operating on power spectral density (PSD)-limited wireless channels. Some implementations more specifically relate to pilot tone designs that support distributed transmission. A transmitting device may modulate a physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) on a number (M) of tones representing a logical RU associated with the legacy tone plan and may further map the M tones to M noncontiguous subcarrier indices associated with a wireless channel. The transmitting device may transmit the PPDU, over the wireless channel, with a number (N) of pilot tones each having a respective location relative to the M tones as mapped to the M noncontiguous subcarrier indices. In some implementations, the relative locations of the N pilot tones may be different than relative locations of a number (K) of pilot tones associated with the logical RU.

  • Publication number: 20240153895
    Abstract: Semiconductor dies of a semiconductor die package are directly bonded, and a top metal region may be formed over the semiconductor dies. A plurality of conductive terminals may be formed over the top metal region. The conductive terminals are formed of copper (Cu) or another material that enables low-temperature deposition process techniques, such as electroplating, to be used to form the conductive terminal. In this way, the conductive terminals of the semiconductor die packages described herein may be formed at a relatively low temperature. This reduces the likelihood of thermal deformation of semiconductor dies in the semiconductor die packages. The reduced thermal deformation reduces the likelihood of warpage, breakage, and/or other types of damage to the semiconductor dies of the semiconductor die packages, which may increase performance and/or increase yield of semiconductor die packages.
