  • Stress shield for integrated circuit package
    Patent number: 9786609
    Abstract: A stress shield for a plastic integrated circuit package is disclosed. A shield plate is attached by an adhesive to a top surface of an integrated circuit die such that the shield plate covers less than all of the top surface and leaves bond pads exposed. A molding material is applied over the shield plate and the integrated circuit die. The shield plate shields the integrated circuit die from stresses imparted by the molding material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 5, 2013
    Date of Patent: October 10, 2017
    Assignee: ANALOG DEVICES GLOBAL
    Inventors: Oliver J Kierse, Frank Poucher, Michael J Cusack, Padraig L Fitzgerald, Patrick Elebert

  • Method for altering electrical and thermal properties of resistive materials
    Patent number: 8723637
    Abstract: A method for altering a resistance of a resistor including trimming the resistor using a first type of trim approach to increase a resistance measurement of the resistor to above a target resistance value, and iteratively trimming the resistor using a second type of trim approach until a power coefficient of resistance (PCR) or temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) measurement of the resistor is substantially close to zero.
