Abstract: An interposer for a semiconductor package and a method of fabricating an interposer including a peripheral metal pad surrounding an alignment mark. The alignment mark and the surrounding peripheral metal pad are formed on a first dielectric material layer of the interposer. A second dielectric material layer is located over the first dielectric material layer and at least partially over the peripheral metal pad structure and includes an recess extending around a periphery of the alignment mark. A third dielectric material layer is located over the second dielectric material layer and extends into the recess and contacts the alignment mark, the first dielectric material layer, and optionally a portion of the peripheral metal pad. The peripheral metal pad may enhance the adhesion between the first, second and third dielectric material layers near the alignment mark structure and thereby reduce the likelihood of crack formation.

Abstract: Some implementations herein describe a semiconductor package. The semiconductor package, which may correspond to a high-performance computing semiconductor package, includes an interposer. The interposer includes tapered interconnect structures formed using a laser plug process. The tapered interconnect structures may include a length that is lesser relative to a length of the column-shaped interconnect structures formed using a through-silicon via process. Such a length reduces a thickness of the interposer and reduces a length of electrical connections through the interposer. In this way, a signal integrity may be increased and parasitics of the semiconductor package including the tapered interconnect structures may be reduced to increase a performance of the semiconductor package. Additionally, the reduced thickness of the interposer may reduce an overall thickness of the semiconductor package to save space consumed by the semiconductor package in a computing system.

A molding compound is deposited between the first redistribution structure and the second redistribution structure and further around the sides of the second component.

Abstract: A semiconductor package, which may correspond to a high-performance computing package, includes an interposer over a substrate. A spacer structure is mounted to a bottom surface of the interposer. The spacer structure is configured to maintain a clearance between a bottom surface of an integrated circuit die mounted to the bottom surface of the interposer and a top surface of the substrate to reduce a likelihood of an interference or collision between the integrated circuit die and the substrate. In this way, a likelihood of damage to the integrated circuit die and/or the substrate is reduced. Additionally, a robustness of an electrical connection between the integrated circuit die and the interposer may increase to improve a reliability and/or a yield of the semiconductor package including the spacer structure.

The set of test contact structures allows the integrated circuit die and traces of the interposer to be tested without probing the connection structures.

Abstract: A contactless physiological measurement device is disclosed. The contactless physiological measurement device is an electronic device comprising a processor and a memory storing an application program. When the application program is executed, the processor controls a front camera and a rear camera of the electronic device to photograph a user, so as to obtain a face image and a hand image. Subsequently, after extracting a first rPPG signal and a second rPPG signal from the face image and the hand image respectively, physiological parameters are calculated by apply a signal process to the first/second rPPG signal. Moreover, a signal parameter difference is also acquired after applying a signal difference calculation to the two rPPG signals. Consequently, an estimation value of blood pressure is outputted by inputting user anthropometric parameter, said signal parameter difference and at least one physiological parameter into a pre-trained blood pressure estimating model.
