According to an aspect, a display device includes a display module including a display panel and a conductive layer, and an enclosure configured to surround the display module, where the enclosure includes a conductive portion. The display device includes an antenna having a structure formed by an air gap disposed between the conductive layer and the conductive portion of the enclosure. The antenna includes an antenna feed located within the air gap. The antenna feed is coupled to the conductive portion of the enclosure and to the conductive layer such that at least a portion of the display module is configured as a radiating element for wireless communication.

A semiconductor package according to some examples of the disclosure may include a first body layer, a transformer that may comprise one or more inductors, coupled inductors, or inductive elements positioned above the first body layer. A first ground plane is on a top of the first body layer between the first body layer and the inductive element. The first ground plane may have conductive lines generally perpendicular to a magnetic field generated by the inductive element, and a second ground plane on a bottom of the first body layer opposite the first ground plane. The first and second ground planes may also provide heat dissipation elements for the semiconductor as well as reduce or eliminate eddy current and parasitic effects produced by the inductive element.

A flip-chip employing an integrated cavity filter is disclosed comprising an integrated circuit (IC) chip comprising a semiconductor die and a plurality of conductive bumps. The plurality of conductive bumps is interconnected to at least one metal layer of the semiconductor die to provide a conductive 'fence' that defines an interior resonator cavity for providing an integrated cavity filter in the flip-chip. The interior resonator cavity is configured to receive an input RF signal from an input transmission line through an input signal transmission aperture provided in an internal layer in the semiconductor die. The interior resonator cavity resonates the input RF signal to generate the output RF signal comprising a filtered RF signal of the input RF signal, and couples the output RF signal on an output signal transmission line in the flip-chip through an output transmission aperture provided in the aperture layer.

An upper planar capacitor is spaced above a lower planar capacitor by a dielectric layer. A bridged-post inter-layer connector couples the capacitances in parallel, through first posts and second posts. The first posts and second posts extend through the dielectric layer, adjacent the upper and lower planar capacitors. A first level coupler extends under the dielectric layer and couples the first posts together and to a conductor of the lower planar capacitor, and couples another conductor of the lower planar capacitor to one of the second posts. A second level coupler extends above the dielectric layer, and couples the second posts together and to a conductor of the upper planar capacitor, and couples another conductor of the upper planar capacitor to one of the first posts.
