Package integrated cavity resonator antenna

A package on a die having a low resistive substrate, wherein the package comprises an inductor on low-k dielectric and a capacitor on high-k dielectric. The stacked arrangement having different dielectric materials may provide an inductor having a high Q-factor while still having a high capacitance density. In addition, moving the inductor from the die to the package and fabricating the high density capacitor on the package reduces the silicon area required permitting smaller RF/analog blocks on the chip.

Present disclosure relates to IC devices with thermal mitigation structures in the form of metal structures provided in a semiconductor material of a substrate on which active electronic devices are integrated (i.e., front-end metal structures). In one aspect, an IC device includes a substrate having a first face and a second face, where at least one active electronic device is integrated at the first face of the substrate. The IC device further includes at least one front-end metal structure that extends from the first face of the substrate into the substrate to a depth that is smaller than a distance between the first face and the second face. Providing front-end metal structures may enable improved cooling options because such structures may be placed in closer vicinity to the active electronic devices, compared to conventional thermal mitigation approaches.
