The semiconductor package has a foundation layer, a conductive layer formed in the foundation layer, and a magnetic layer formed between the conductive and the foundation layer. The conductive layer and the magnetic layer are coupled to form a low-profile inductor shield. The semiconductor package also has a dielectric layer formed between the magnetic and foundation layer. The foundation layer is mounted between a motherboard and a semiconductor die, where the foundation layer is attached to the motherboard with solder balls. Accordingly, the low-profile inductor shield may include a z-height that is less than a z-height of the solder balls. The low-profile inductor shield may have solder pads that are coupled to the conductive layer. The foundation layer may include at least one of voltage regulator and inductor, where the inductor is located above the low-profile inductor shield.

The increasing power density and, therefore, current consumption of high performance integrated circuits (ICs) results in increased challenges in the design of a reliable and efficient on-chip power delivery network. In particular, meeting the stringent on-chip impedance of the IC requires circuit and system techniques to mitigate high frequency noise that results due to resonance between the package inductance and the onchip capacitance. In this paper, a novel circuit technique is proposed to suppress high frequency noise through the use of a hyperabrupt junction tuning varactor diode as a decoupling capacitor for noise critical functional blocks. With the proposed circuit technique, the voltage droops and overshoots on the onchip power distribution network are suppressed by up to 60% as compared to MIM or deep trench decoupling capacitors of the same capacitance. In addition, there is no added latency to react to power supply noise and there is no degradation to circuit performance as compared to existing techniques in commercial products and literature.
