  • Publication number: 20210225745
    Abstract: A packaged half-bridge circuit includes a carrier having a dielectric core and a first layer of metallization formed on an upper surface of the carrier, first and second semiconductor chips, each including a first terminal, a second terminal, and a control terminal, and a conductive connector mounted on the upper surface of the carrier and electrically connected to the first layer of metallization. The first semiconductor chip is configured as a high-side switch of the half-bridge circuit. The second semiconductor chip is configured as a low-side switch of the half-bridge circuit. At least one of the first and second semiconductor chips is embedded within the dielectric core of the carrier. The conductive connector is electrically connected to one of the first and second terminals from one or both of the first and second semiconductor chips.

  • Patent number: 10916484
    Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed. In one example, the electronic device includes a solder ball, a dielectric layer comprising an opening, and a redistribution layer (RDL) comprising an RDL pad connected with the solder ball. The RDL pad including at least one void, the void being disposed at least in partial in an area of the RDL pad laterally outside of the opening of the dielectric layer.

  • Publication number: 20210005536
    Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die having a semiconductor device, and first and second contact pads arranged on opposite surfaces of the die. The semiconductor die is embedded in a dielectric layer. The semiconductor package also includes one or more first package contact pads and one or more second package contact pads arranged on a first major surface of the semiconductor package. The first contact pad of the die is coupled to the one or more first package contact pads, and the second contact pad of the die is coupled to the one or more second package contact pads. In operation, the semiconductor device causes a current path between the first contact pad and the second contact pad. The package contact pads are arranged on the first major surface of the semiconductor package to provide multiple non-parallel current paths.

  • Publication number: 20200075484
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a semiconductor package includes a semiconductor device embedded in an insulating layer, a contact pad having an area, and a vertical redistribution structure including substantially parallel vertical paths arranged in the insulating layer and extending perpendicular to the area of the contact pad. The substantially vertical paths are non-uniformly distributed over the area of the contact pad.
