HIGH DENSITY INTERCONNECT DEVICE AND METHOD
Embodiments that allow both high density and low density interconnection between microelectronic die and motherboard via Direct Chip Attach (DCA) are described. In some embodiments, microelectronic die have a high density interconnect with a small bump pitch located along one edge and a lower density connection region with a larger bump pitch located in other regions of the die.
