A package comprising a substrate and an integrated device coupled to the substrate. The substrate includes at least one dielectric layer, a plurality of interconnects comprising a first interconnect and a second interconnect, a capacitor located at least partially in the substrate, the capacitor comprising a first terminal and a second terminal, a first solder interconnect coupled to a first side surface of the first terminal and the first interconnect, and a second solder interconnect coupled to a second side surface of the second terminal and the second interconnect.

Various disclosed embodiments include a substrate, a first interposer coupled to the substrate and to a first semiconductor device die, and a second interposer coupled to the substrate and to a second semiconductor device die. The first semiconductor device die may be a serializer/de-serializer die and the first semiconductor device die coupled to the first interposer may be located proximate to a sidewall of the substrate. In certain embodiments, the second semiconductor device die may be a system-on-chip die. In further embodiments, the second interposer may also be coupled to high bandwidth memory die. Placing a serializer/de-serializer die proximate to a sidewall of a substrate allows a length of electrical pathways to be reduced, thus reducing impedance and RC delay. The use of smaller, separate, interposers also reduces complexity of fabrication of interposers and similarly lowers impedance associated with redistribution interconnect structures associated with the interposers.

A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor chip including an electrode pad formed on the top surface thereof, a passive device embedded in the semiconductor package, the passive device having no functional electrode on the top surface thereof, a cover layer covering the semiconductor chip and the passive device, and at least one electrode pattern formed on the cover layer to transmit electrical signals. The cover layer includes at least one first opening formed to expose a region in which the functional electrode is to be formed. The electrode pattern includes a functional electrode portion formed in a region in which the functional electrode of the passive device is to be formed through the first opening. In the process of forming the electrode pattern, a functional electrode of the passive device is formed together therewith, thereby eliminating a separate step of manufacturing a functional electrode and thus reducing manufacturing costs.

A Doherty amplifier includes a first amplifier that includes first output fingers and a first output electrode connected to the first output fingers, a second amplifier that includes second output fingers and a second output electrode connected to the second output fingers, a first bonding wire connected between a first region in the first output electrode and a second region in the second output electrode, a second bonding wire connected between a third region in the first output electrode and a fourth region in the second output electrode, and at least one of a first capacitor connected in series with the first bonding wire, and a second capacitor connected in parallel with the second bonding wire, wherein the first and the third regions are regions to which the first output fingers are connected, and the second and the fourth regions are regions to which second output fingers are connected.

A semiconductor package includes a connection member including an insulating layer and a redistribution layer, a semiconductor chip disposed on the connection member, and an inductance sensing part having a coil form and electrically connected to the semiconductor chip.

Vertically-aligned and conductive dummies in integrated circuit (IC) layers reduce capacitance and bias independence. Dummies are islands of material in areas of metal and semiconductor IC layers without circuit features to avoid non-uniform polishing (“dishing”). Conductive diffusion layer dummies in a diffusion layer and conductive polysilicon dummies in a polysilicon layer above the diffusion layer reduce bias dependence and nonlinear circuit operation in the presence of an applied varying voltage. ICs with metal dummies vertically aligned in at least one metal layer above the polysilicon dummies and diffusion dummies reduce lateral coupling capacitance compared to ICs in which dummies are dispersed in a non-overlapping layout by a foundry layout tool. Avoiding lateral resistance-capacitance (RC) ladder networks created by dispersed dummies improves signal delays and power consumption in radio-frequency (RF) ICs.

A capacitor loop substrate assembly includes a substrate with a loop shape, one or more capacitors or other electronic components on the substrate, and an opening in the substrate to allow the capacitor loop substrate assembly to be coupled to an integrated circuit package, such as a package including a die. Interconnects and/or contacts for interconnects are formed in an integrated circuit package to couple the capacitor loop substrate assembly to the integrated circuit package.

Inductance-capacitance (LC) resonators having different resonant frequencies, and radio frequency (RF) transistor amplifiers including the same.
