Semiconductor package with elastic coupler and related methods
Implementations of semiconductor packages may include: a die coupled to a substrate; a housing coupled to the substrate and at least partially enclosing the die within a cavity of the housing, and; a pin fixedly coupled to the housing and electrically coupled with the die, wherein the pin includes a reversibly elastically deformable lower portion configured to compress to prevent a lower end of the pin from lowering beyond a predetermined point relative to the substrate when the housing is lowered to be coupled to the substrate.

Bridge hub tiling architecture
Systems and methods of conductively coupling at least three semiconductor dies included in a semiconductor package using a multi-die interconnect bridge that is embedded, disposed, or otherwise integrated into the semiconductor package substrate are provided. The multi-die interconnect bridge is a passive device that includes passive electronic components such as conductors, resistors, capacitors and inductors. The multi-die interconnect bridge communicably couples each of the semiconductor dies included in the at least three semiconductor dies to each of at least some of the remaining at least three semiconductor dies. The multi-die interconnect bridge occupies a first area on the surface of the semiconductor package substrate. The smallest of the at least three semiconductor dies coupled to the multi-die interconnect bridge 120 occupies a second area on the surface of the semiconductor package substrate, where the second area is greater than the first area.

Reconstituted substrate structure and fabrication methods for heterogeneous packaging integration
The present disclosure relates to thin-form-factor reconstituted substrates and methods for forming the same. The reconstituted substrates described herein may be utilized to fabricate homogeneous or heterogeneous high-density 3D integrated devices. In one embodiment, a silicon substrate is structured by direct laser patterning to include one or more cavities and one or more vias. One or more semiconductor dies of the same or different types may be placed within the cavities and thereafter embedded in the substrate upon formation of an insulating layer thereon. One or more conductive interconnections are formed in the vias and may have contact points redistributed to desired surfaces of the reconstituted substrate. The reconstituted substrate may thereafter be integrated into a stacked 3D device.

MANUFACTURING APPARATUS AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
A manufacturing apparatus of a semiconductor device includes a stage, a mounting tool, a pressing mechanism, and a controller. The pressing mechanism moves the mounting tool in a vertical direction and applies a load to a chip. The controller is configured to perform a first process and a detection process. In the first process, after bringing the chip into contact and until a bump melts, the chip is heated by the mounting tool and a command position of the pressing mechanism is constantly updated so that a positional deviation is constant. In the detection process, melting of the bump is detected based on a decrease in the pressing load.
