Hybrid microelectronic substrates, and related devices and methods, are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a hybrid microelectronic substrate may include a low-density microelectronic substrate having a recess at a first surface, and a high-density microelectronic substrate disposed in the recess and coupled to a bottom of the recess via solder.

Hybrid microelectronic substrates

A hybrid microelectronic substrate may be formed by the incorporation of a high density microelectronic patch substrate within a lower density microelectronic substrate. The hybrid microelectronic substrate may allow for direct flip chip attachment of a microelectronic device having high density interconnections to the high density microelectronic patch substrate portion of the hybrid microelectronic substrate, while allowing for lower density interconnection and electrical routes in areas where high density interconnections are not required.

Hybrid microelectronic substrate and methods for fabricating the same

Disclosed herein are arrangements for shielding in electronic assemblies, as well as related methods and devices. In some embodiments, an electronic assembly may include a circuit board having a first face and a second opposing face, and a shield coupled to the second face of the circuit board. The circuit board may have a hole extending therethrough, and the shield may extend into the hole towards the first face.

Shielding in electronic assemblies

Embodiments of the invention include a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly that includes advanced component in cavity (ACC) technology and methods of forming such PCB assemblies. In one embodiment, the PCB assembly may include a PCB that has a cavity formed on a first surface of the PCB. A plurality of contacts may be formed in the cavity. The cavity provides a location where components may be electrically coupled to the PCB. Additionally, a package that is mounted to the PCB may extend over the cavity. Since the package passes directly over the component, the components may be used to electrically couple the package to one or more of the contacts formed in the cavity. Accordingly, embodiments of the invention allow for the surface area used for components to be reduced, and also improves electrical performance of the PCB assembly by positioning the components proximate to the package.
