  • Publication number: 20230395526
    Abstract: Some implementations described herein provide techniques and apparatuses for a semiconductor package. The semiconductor package, which may correspond to a high performance computing package, includes a reinforcement structure that is embedded in a substrate of the semiconductor package. The reinforcement structure may increase a rigidity of the semiconductor package so that a warpage is reduced and a coplanarity between the substrate and a printed circuit board is maintained during a surface mount process. Reducing the warpage may increase a robustness of connection structures between an interposer and the substrate. Additionally, maintaining the coplanarity reduces a likelihood that connection structures at a bottom surface of the substrate will fail to adequately solder or attach to lands of the printed circuit board during the surface mount process.
