MEMORY ON PACKAGE (MOP) WITH REVERSE CAMM (COMPRESSION ATTACHED MEMORY MODULE) AND CMT CONNECTOR
Memory on Package (MOP) apparatus with reverse CAMM (Compression Attached Memory Module) and compression mount technology (CMT) connector(s). The MOP includes a first (MOP) substrate to which one or more CPUs, SoC, and XPUs that is operatively coupled to one or more CAMMs with a CMT connector(s) disposed between an array of CMT contact pads on the CAMM substrate and an array of CMT contact pad on the substrate. The one or more CAMMs are include multiple memory chips or packages such as LP DDR chips or DDR (S)DRAM chips/packages mounted to an underside of the CAMM substrate via signal coupling means such as a ball grid array (BGA), where the CAMM orientation is inverted such that the memory chips/packages are disposed downward, resulting in a reduced Z-height of the MOP. A MOP may include two CAMMs with a respective CMT connector disposed between the CAMM substrates and the MOP substrate.
