Abstract: Embodiments herein describe disposing a magnetic material (e.g., a high permeability material) in a solder ball connection between two substrates (e.g., between an integrated circuit (IC) and a printed circuit board (PCB)). After a reflow process (which bonds two substrates together using solder balls), the solder balls become spherical, which causes the distance between two neighboring solder balls to decrease, which increases capacitance. The magnetic material can counterbalance the negative effects of the increased capacitance.

Abstract: A design and process address power delivery problems for PTH and one-step HDI designs.
