Abstract
A module and method for interconnecting integrated circuits. The module includes an insulative body that features conductive traces having differing resistivities associated therewith. To that end, the insulative body has, disposed therein, a conductive bond pad and a plurality of spaced apart conductive traces, one of which is in electrical communication with the bond pad, with each of the plurality of conductive traces are formed from a material having a resistivity associated therewith. The resistivity of the material from which one of the plurality of conductive traces is formed being greater than the resistivity of the material from which the remaining conductive traces are formed and defines a decoupling capacitor therebetween.
