Apparatuses relating generally to a microelectronic package having protection from interference are disclosed. In an apparatus thereof, a substrate has an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface and has a ground plane. A first microelectronic device is coupled to the upper surface of the substrate. Wire bond wires are coupled to the ground plane for conducting the interference thereto and extending away from the upper surface of the substrate. A first portion of the wire bond wires is positioned to provide a shielding region for the first microelectronic device with respect to the interference. A second portion of the wire bond wires is not positioned to provide the shielding region. A second microelectronic device is coupled to the substrate and located outside of the shielding region. A conductive surface is over the first portion of the wire bond wires for covering the shielding region.

Wire bond wires for interference shielding

Apparatuses relating generally to a vertically integrated microelectronic package are disclosed. In an apparatus thereof, a substrate has an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface. A first microelectronic device is coupled to the upper surface of the substrate. The first microelectronic device is a passive microelectronic device. First wire bond wires are coupled to and extend away from the upper surface of the substrate. Second wire bond wires are coupled to and extend away from an upper surface of the first microelectronic device. The second wire bond wires are shorter than the first wire bond wires. A second microelectronic device is coupled to upper ends of the first wire bond wires and the second wire bond wires. The second microelectronic device is located above the first microelectronic device and at least partially overlaps the first microelectronic device.

Embedded wire bond wires

In a vertically integrated microelectronic package, a first microelectronic device is coupled to an upper surface of a circuit platform in a wire bond-only surface area thereof. Wire bond wires are coupled to and extends away from an upper surface of the first microelectronic device. A second microelectronic device in a face-down orientation is coupled to upper ends of the wire bond wires in a surface mount-only area. The second microelectronic device is located above and at least partially overlaps the first microelectronic device. A protective layer is disposed over the circuit platform and the first microelectronic device. An upper surface of the protective layer has the surface mount-only area. The upper surface of the protective layer has the second microelectronic device disposed thereon in the face-down orientation in the surface mount-only area for coupling to the upper ends of the first wire bond wires.

Embedded wire bond wires for vertical integration with separate surface mount and wire bond mounting surfaces

An integrated circuit package includes a package substrate, a die attach pad formed on the package substrate for securing a die to the package substrate, a ground bonding ring formed on the package substrate for attaching core and I/O ground bond wires between the die and the package substrate, and a first plurality of bond fingers formed immediately adjacent to the ground bonding ring for attaching a first set of I/O signal bond wires between the package substrate and the die.

Wire bond integrated circuit package for high speed I/O

A die package generally including (A) ground paths routing a power ground from a ground power set of contact pads in a first conductive layer to a ground ring in a second conductive layer, (B) core paths routing a core voltage from a core power set of contact pads in the first conductive layer to a core ring in the second conductive layer, and (C) input/output voltage paths routing input/output voltages from an input/output power set of contact pads in the first conductive layer to an input/output ring in the second conductive layer, (i) the input/output ring surrounding the core ring, (ii) the ring being configured to power input and output circuits of the die, (iii) the input/output ring being split into ring segments isolated from each other and (iv) at least one particular ring segment having a length of less than a single connector pitch.

Ball grid array package layout supporting many voltage splits and flexible split locations

A carrier substrate includes an access region placed within the interior of the substrate that facilitates backside access to an integrated circuit die without damaging electrical integrity of the carrier substrate, a ring of die connection pads placed around the access region, and an array of package connection pads positioned around the perimeter of the top surface of the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the perimeter depth of the array of package connections pads is selected to correspond to the number of electrical traces routable between minimally spaced package connection pads. The basic carrier substrate design is used to create an integrated circuit carrier family with each particular circuit carrier configured to receive a range of integrated circuit sizes and I/O counts such that each circuit carrier overlaps in size range with at least one other circuit carrier.

Integrated circuit carrier apparatus method and system

A substrate of the type for receiving an integrated circuit and a mold cover. The mold cover covers a first portion of the substrate and leaves a second portion of the substrate exposed with a boundary edge between the first portion of the substrate and a second portion of the substrate. The substrate has electrically conductive traces and electrically conductive vias on an upper layer adjacent the mold cover. The electrically conductive traces do not cross the boundary edge on the upper layer of the substrate.
