Patent number: 10910347Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for interconnecting stacked integrated circuit (IC) dies. In an embodiment, a first end of a wire is coupled to a first IC die of a stack, where a second end of the wire is further anchored to the stack independent of the coupled first end. A package material is subsequently disposed around IC dies of the stack and a first portion of the wire that includes the first end. Two-point anchoring of the wire to the stack aids in providing mechanical support to resist movement that might otherwise displace and/or deform the wire while the package material is deposited. In another embodiment, the first portion of the wire is separated from the rest of the wire, and a redistribution layer is coupled to the first portion to enable interconnection between the first IC die and another IC die of the stack.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2019Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Yong She, John G.
