20140168014 | Antenna Apparatus and Method - An antenna apparatus comprises a semiconductor die comprising a plurality of active circuits, a molding layer formed over the semiconductor die, wherein the semiconductor die and the molding layer form a fan-out package, a first dielectric layer formed on a first side of the semiconductor die over the molding compound layer, a first redistribution layer formed in the first dielectric layer and an antenna structure formed above the semiconductor die and coupled to the plurality of active circuits through the first redistribution layer. | 06-19-2014 |
20140185264 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FORMING PACKAGE-ON-PACKAGES - Methods and apparatus are disclosed for a package or a package-on-package (PoP) device. An IC package or a PoP device may comprise an electrical path connecting a die and a decoupling capacitor, wherein the electrical path may have a width in a range from about 8 um to about 44 um and a length in a range from about 10 um to about 650 um. The decoupling capacitor and the die may be contained in a same package, or at different packages within a PoP device, connected by contact pads, redistribution layers (RDLs), and connectors. | 07-03-2014 |
20140253262 | RF CHOKE DEVICE FOR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS - Among other things, one or more techniques and systems for selectively filtering RF signals within one or more RF frequency band are provided. In particular, an RF choke, such as a 3D RF choke or a semi-lumped RF choke, configured to selectively filter such RF signals is provided. The RF choke comprises a metal connection line configured as an inductive element for the RF choke. In an example, one or more metal lines, such as a metal open stub, are formed as capacitive elements for the RF choke. In another example, one or more through vias are formed as capacitive elements for the RF choke. In this way, the RF choke allows DC power signals to pass through the metal connection line, while impeding RF signals within the one or more RF frequency bands from passing through the metal connection line. | 09-11-2014 |
20140262475 | 3D Shielding Case and Methods for Forming the Same - A package includes a die, and a molding material molding the die therein. A metal shield case includes a first metal mesh over and contacting the molding material and the die, a second metal mesh underlying the die, and a Through-Assembly Via (TAV) in the molding material and forming a ring encircling the die. The TAV is electrically connected to the first metal mesh and the second metal mesh. | 09-18-2014 |
20150042438 | TUNABLE THREE DIMENSIONAL INDUCTOR - A tunable three-dimensional (3D) inductor comprises a plurality of vias arranged with spacing among them, a plurality of interconnects in a metal layer, wherein the plurality of interconnects connect the plurality of vias on one end, and a plurality of tunable wires that connects to the plurality of vias on the other end to form the 3D inductor.
