Abstract: A method that includes electroplating both sides of a core and the through hole of a core with a conductive material to cover both sides of the core with the conductive material and to form a conductive bridge in the through hole, wherein the core has a thickness greater than 200 microns; etching the conductive material that covers both sides of the core to reduce the thickness of the conductive material to about 1 micron; applying a film resist to the core; exposing and developing the resist film to form patterns on the conductive material on both sides of the core; and electroplating additional conductive material on the (i) conductive material on both sides of the core (ii) conductive material within the through hole; and (iii) conductive bridge to fill the through hole with conductive material without any voids and to form conductive patterns on both sides of the core.

Abstract: Embodiments of substrates, semiconductor devices and methods are shown that include elongated structures to improve conduction. Elongated structures and methods are also shown that provide electromagnetic isolation to reduce noise in adjacent components.

Abstract: An assembly of substrate packages interconnected with flex cables and a method of fabrication of the substrate package. The assembly allows input/output (I/O) signals to be speedily transmitted between substrate packages via flex cable and without being routed through the motherboard. Embodiments relate to a substrate package providing separable inter-package flex cable connection. Hermetically-sealed guiding through holes are provided on the substrate package as a mechanical alignment feature to guide connection between flex cables and high speed I/O contact pads on the substrate package. Embodiments of the method of fabrication relate to simultaneously forming hermetically-sealed guiding through holes and I/O contact pads.
