Abstract
Terminal connection routing on top of a substrate surface connects to component terminals to and from PMIC devices and provides a novel structure to connect surface mount technology (SMT) passive device terminals on an SMT layer (such as a Cu bar mesh) that uses the 3D space available near to components to lower resistance/lower inductive path and provides a shorter path, SIP form factor reduction, a component placement density increase, creates an additional PDN layer for connectivity and, if the routing is encapsulated in a mold, protects the metal in the connection from oxidation. Methods are presented for providing a substrate, attaching a first device to a first surface of the substrate near a center of the substrate, attaching a second device to the first surface of the substrate near an edge of the substrate, and connecting a connection located on the first surface of the substrate between the first device and the second device.
