  • Patent number: 12206410
    Abstract: A programmable device may have logic circuitry formed in a top die and memory and specialized processing blocks formed in a bottom die, where the top die is stacked directly on top of the bottom die in a face-to-face configuration. The logic circuitry may include logic sectors, logic array blocks, logic elements, and other types of logic regions. The memory blocks may include large banks of multiport memory for storing data. The specialized processing blocks may include multipliers, adders, and other arithmetic components. The logic circuitry may access the memory and specialized processing blocks via an address encoded scheme. Configured in this way, the maximum operating frequency of the programmable device can be optimized such that critical paths will no longer need to traverse any unused memory and specialized processing blocks.

  • Patent number: 12003023
    Abstract: An RF chip package comprises a housing and one or more conductive contacts designed to electrically connect the RF chip package to other conductive contacts. The housing includes a first substrate, a 3-D antenna on the first substrate, and a second substrate. The second substrate includes a plurality of semiconductor devices and is bonded to the first substrate. An interconnect structure allows for electrical connection between the first and second substrates. In some cases, the first substrate is flip-chip bonded to the second substrate or is otherwise connected to the second substrate by an array of solder balls. By integrating both the 3-D antenna and RF circuitry together in the same chip package, costs are minimized while bandwidth is greatly improved compared to a separately machined 3-D antenna.

  • Patent number: 11915996
    Abstract: An integrated circuit structure that includes a first integrated circuit package and a second integrated circuit package is described. The two packages can be stacked above, for example, a printed circuit board. The top package is inverted, such that a first die of that top package is facing a second die of the bottom package. A cooling arrangement is in a gap between the first and second integrated circuit packages, and is thermally coupled to the first and second die. The cooling arrangement is to transfer heat generated by a first die of the first integrated circuit package and a second die of the second integrated circuit package. In some cases, structures comprising electrically conductive material (e.g., metal) are encapsulated by a molding compound or insulator, and extend between a first substrate of the first integrated circuit package and a second substrate of the second integrated circuit package.
