| 20080277775 | Ultra-thin near-hermetic package based on rainier - A microelectronic package including a dielectric layer having top and bottom surfaces, the dielectric layer having terminals exposed at the bottom surface; a metallic wall bonded to the dielectric layer and projecting upwardly from the top surface of the dielectric layer and surrounding a region of the top surface; a metallic lid bonded to the wall and extending over the region of the top surface so that the lid, the wall and the dielectric layer cooperatively define an enclosed space; and a microelectronic element disposed within the space and electrically connected to the terminals. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090071707 | Multilayer substrate with interconnection vias and method of manufacturing the same - A method is provided for manufacturing a multilayer substrate. An insulating layer can have a hole overlying a patterned second metal layer. In turn, the second metal layer can overlie a first metal layer. A third metal layer can be electroplated onto the patterned second metal layer within the hole, the third metal layer extending from the second metal layer onto a wall of the hole. When plating the third metal layer, the first and second metal layers can function as a conductive commoning element. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20100193970 | MICRO PIN GRID ARRAY WITH PIN MOTION ISOLATION - A microelectronic package includes a microelectronic element having faces and contacts, a flexible substrate overlying and spaced from a first face of the microelectronic element, and a plurality of conductive terminals exposed at a surface of the flexible substrate. The conductive terminals are electrically interconnected with the microelectronic element and the flexible substrate includes a gap extending at least partially around at least one of the conductive terminals. In certain embodiments, the package includes a support layer, such as a compliant layer, disposed between the first face of the microelectronic element and the flexible substrate. In other embodiments, the support layer includes at least one opening that is at least partially aligned with one of the conductive terminals. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110147928 | MICROELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY WITH BOND ELEMENTS HAVING LOWERED INDUCTANCE - Microelectronic assemblies can have multiple conductive bond elements, e.g., bond wires, or a lead bond and a bond wire, extending between a pair of a substrate contact and a chip contact. E.g., a first bond wire can have ends joined to the contacts of the chip and substrate. A second bond wire can be joined to the ends of the first bond wire so that the second bond wire does not touch either the chip contact or the substrate contact to which the first bond wire is joined. In one example, a bond wire has a looped connection with first and second ends joined at a first contact and a middle portion joined to a second contact. In one example, first and second bond elements, e.g., bond wires or lead bonds can connect first and second pairs of a substrate contact with a chip contact. A third bond element, e.g., a bond wire or bond ribbon, can be joined to ends of the first and second bond elements. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110147953 | MICROELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY WITH JOINED BOND ELEMENTS HAVING LOWERED INDUCTANCE - A microelectronic assembly includes a semiconductor chip having chip contacts exposed at a first face and a substrate juxtaposed with a face of the chip. A conductive bond element can electrically connect a first chip contact with a first substrate contact of the substrate, and a second conductive bond element can electrically connect the first chip contact with a second substrate contact. The first bond element can have a first end metallurgically joined to the first chip contact and a second end metallurgically joined to the first substrate contact. A first end of the second bond element can be metallurgically joined to the first bond element. The second bond element may or may not touch the first chip contact or the substrate contact. A third bond element can be joined to ends of first and second bond elements which are joined to substrate contacts or to chip contacts. In one embodiment, a bond element can have a looped connection, having first and second ends joined at a first contact and a middle portion joined to a second contact. | 06-23-2011 |
