A transistor device includes a metal submount; a transistor die arranged on said metal submount; at least one integrated passive device (IPD) component that includes a substrate arranged on said metal submount; and one or more interconnects extending between the transistor die and the at least one integrated passive device (IPD) component. The substrate includes a silicon carbide (SiC) substrate.

IPD components having SiC substrates and devices and processes implementing the same

A semiconductor chip comprises a substrate, a die attach material, and a die. The substrate comprises an upper surface and a lower surface opposing the upper surface. The die attach material is on the upper surface of the substrate. The die comprises a bottom surface bonded to the upper surface of the substrate by the die attach material, a top surface opposing the bottom surface, and a side wall adjacent to the top surface and the bottom surface. A shortest distance across an exterior of the side wall from the bottom surface to the top surface defines an exterior surface distance. The die further comprises a die height measured from where the side wall meets the bottom surface to where the side wall meets the top surface. The exterior surface distance is longer than the die height.
