Polymer layers embedded with metal pads for heat dissipation
An integrated circuit structure includes a metal pad, a passivation layer including a portion over the metal pad, a first polymer layer over the passivation layer, and a first Post-Passivation Interconnect (PPI) extending into to the first polymer layer. The first PPI is electrically connected to the metal pad. A dummy metal pad is located in the first polymer layer. A second polymer layer is overlying the first polymer layer, the dummy metal pad, and the first PPI. An Under-Bump-Metallurgy (UBM) extends into the second polymer layer to electrically couple to the dummy metal pad.

PILLAR WITH EMBEDDED CAPACITOR
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication, and to a pillar that includes one or more structures configured to define a capacitor. For example, a device includes a die, a substrate, and a pillar having an embedded capacitor. The pillar is electrically connected to one or more conductors of the die and to one or more conductors of the substrate. The pillar includes a first conductive structure and a second conductive structure. The pillar also includes a dielectric layer disposed between the first conductive structure and the second conductive structure to define the embedded capacitor.
