An electronic device package is described. The electronic device package includes one or more dies. The electronic device package includes an interposer coupled to the one or more dies. The electronic device package also includes a package substrate coupled to the interposer. The electronic device package includes a plurality of through-silicon vias (TSVs) in at least one die of the one or more dies, or the interposer, or both. The electronic device package includes a passive equalizer structure communicatively coupled to a TSV pair in the plurality of TSVs. The passive equalizer structure is operable to minimize a level of insertion loss variation in the TSV pair.

Semiconductor packages and package assemblies having active dies and external die mounts on a silicon wafer, and methods of fabricating such semiconductor packages and package assemblies, are described. In an example, a semiconductor package assembly includes a semiconductor package having an active die attached to a silicon wafer by a first solder bump. A second solder bump is on the silicon wafer laterally outward from the active die to provide a mount for an external die. An epoxy layer may surround the active die and cover the silicon wafer. A hole may extend through the epoxy layer above the second solder bump to expose the second solder bump through the hole. Accordingly, an external memory die can be connected directly to the second solder bump on the silicon wafer through the hole.

An IC chip includes I/O bumps on a back side, a first die, a second die, a first circuit, and a second circuit. The first die has driver circuits for LED devices, the LED devices being located on a front-facing surface of the first die. The first circuit extends from the front side toward the back side and across a thickness of the first die. The first circuit provides electrical connections between the LED devices and at least some of the I/O bumps. The first die and the second die can be stacked vertically or arranged laterally adjacent. The second circuit extends between the first die and the second die to electrically connect the first die and the second die. A circuit board can be electrically connected to the IC chip through the I/O bumps to, among other things, provide power to the various components of the IC chip.

An integrated circuit device includes a semiconductor substrate, first through-silicon-via (TSV) structures penetrating a first region of the semiconductor substrate and spaced apart from each other by a first pitch, a first individual device between the first TSV structures and spaced apart from the first TSV structures by a distance that is greater than a first keep-off distance, and second TSV structures penetrating a second region of the semiconductor substrate and spaced apart from each other by a second pitch that is less than the first pitch. The second region of the semiconductor device does not include an individual device that is homogeneous with the first individual device and between the second TSV structures.

A first undercut is disposed at one end of the metal seed layer that contacts the upper structure, and a second undercut is disposed at an other end of the metal seed layer that contacts the lower structure.

Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, and techniques related to a transceiver architecture for inter-die communication on-package using mm-wave/THz interconnects. In particular, amplifier-less transceivers are used in combination with on-package low loss transmission lines to provide inter-die communication. In embodiments, signals on the interconnect may be transmitted between up conversion mixers and down conversion mixers without any additional amplification. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Disclosed are semiconductor packages and their fabricating methods. The semiconductor package comprises connection terminals between a first die and a second die. The first die has signal and peripheral regions and includes first vias on the peripheral region. The second die is on the first die and has second vias on positions that correspond to the first vias. The connection terminals connect the second vias to the first vias. The peripheral region includes first regions adjacent to corners of the first die and second regions adjacent to lateral surfaces of the first die. The connection terminals include first connection terminals on the first regions and second connection terminals on the second regions. A sum of areas of the first connection terminals per unit area on the first regions is greater than that of areas of the second connection terminals per unit area on the second regions.

A method includes forming a first through-via from a first conductive pad of a first device die, and forming a second through-via from a second conductive pad of a second device die. The first and second conductive pads are at top surfaces of the first and the second device dies, respectively. The first and the second conductive pads may be used as seed layers. The second device die is adhered to the top surface of the first device die. The method further includes encapsulating the first and the second device dies and the first and the second through-vias in an encapsulating material, with the first and the second device dies and the first and the second through-vias encapsulated in a same encapsulating process. The encapsulating material is planarized to reveal the first and the second through-vias. Redistribution lines are formed to electrically couple to the first and the second through-vias.

A substrate or semiconductor device, semiconductor device assembly, and method of forming a semiconductor device assembly that includes a barrier on a solder cup. The semiconductor device assembly includes a substrate disposed over another substrate. At least one solder cup extends from one substrate towards an under bump metal (UBM) on the other substrate. The barrier on the exterior of the solder cup may be a standoff to control a bond line between the substrates. The barrier may reduce solder bridging during the formation of a semiconductor device assembly. The barrier may help to align the solder cup with a UBM when forming a semiconductor device assembly and may reduce misalignment due to lateral movement of substrates and/or semiconductor devices.
