Abstract
An integrated circuit package has a host integrated circuit with an active front side that is surface-mounted on a support and an inactive backside. Conductive pathways extend between the front and back sides of the integrated circuit. A redistribution layer on the back side of the host integrated circuit provides conductive traces and contact pads. The traces of the redistribution layer establish connection between the conductive pathways and the contact pads. At least one additional component is surface-mounted on the back side of the host integrated circuit by electrical connection to the contact pads of the redistribution layer to provide a compact three-dimensional structure. In an alternative embodiment, the additional components can be mounted on the active side.
