  • Structure and Method of Fabrication for High Performance Integrated Passive Device
    Publication number: 20240088032
    Abstract: Microelectronic modules are described. In an embodiment, a microelectronic module includes a module substrate, a chip mounted onto the module substrate, and a semiconductor-based integrated passive device between the chip and the module substrate. The semiconductor-based integrated passive device may include an upper RDL stack-up with thicker wiring layers than a lower BEOL stack-up. The semiconductor-based integrated passive device may be further solder bonded or hybrid bonded with the chip.

  • Methods, systems, and computer program products for asymmetric multimode interconnect
    Patent number: 9008215
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for asymmetric multimode interconnect (MMI) are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for receiver-side asymmetric MMI includes a receiver that receives binary-encoded input signals from a multichannel interconnect, encodes the received binary-encoded signals according to a multimode encoding equation to produce multimode-encoded signals having voltage levels according to the multimode encoding equation, adjusts the timing of the multimode-encoded signals to compensate for multichannel interconnect channel delays to produce delay-adjusted multimode-encoded signals, and decodes the delay-adjusted multimode-encoded signals according to a multimode decoding equation to produce binary-encoded output signals.
