Abstract

Abstract A method and structure are disclosed for mounting and connecting an electic device such as an integrated circuit to a circuit board. The board has a plurality of embedded shielded conductors for interconnecting the integrated circuit to other devices on the board. In order to limit the capacitance and inductance of the connection, the integrated circuit is mass bonded directly to the conductors and to their coaxial shields.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 113 words
A substrate for receiving a semiconductor chip having a plurality of pad sites, said substrate comprises: a conductor; a layer of dielectric material coaxially surrounding said conductor; a shield coaxially surrounding said dielectric material; said dielectric material and said shield having a cavity extending therethrough in order to permit a semiconductor chip to be received therein; a conductor termination, said conductor termination being an extension of said conductor and protruding into said cavity for directly contacting one of the pad sites of the chip; and a shield termination, said shield termination being an extension of said shield and protruding into said cavity for directly contacting another of the pad sites of the chip.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 113 words
A substrate for receiving a semiconductor chip having a plurality of pad sites, said substrate comprises: a conductor; a layer of dielectric material coaxially surrounding said conductor; a shield coaxially surrounding said dielectric material; said dielectric material and said shield having a cavity extending therethrough in order to permit a semiconductor chip to be received therein; a conductor termination, said conductor termination being an extension of said conductor and protruding into said cavity for directly contacting one of the pad sites of the chip; and a shield termination, said shield termination being an extension of said shield and protruding into said cavity for directly contacting another of the pad sites of the chip.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The substrate of claim 1 wherein said conductor and shield terminations comprise pads for compression bonding to said device.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The substrate of claim 2 wherein said conductor and shield terminations are axially aligned with the respective pad sites.
