Electronic passive device
View Patent ↗A capacitive interposer, electronic package having the capacitive interposer and electronic device with the electronic package is described. The interposer has a first planar face and a second planar face. An array of upper connections is on the first planar face and opposing lower connections are on the second planar face with conduction paths between each upper connection of the upper connections and a lower connection of the lower connections. At least one power feed-through capacitor is provided. The capacitor is mounted on the first planar face with the first external termination in direct electrical contact with a first upper connection and the second external termination is in direct electrical contact with a second upper connection. At least one upper connection, first external termination and second external termination are arranged for direct electrical contact with element contact pads of a common element.
1. An interposer comprising:
a substrate comprising a first face and an opposing second face;
a feed through capacitor integral to said substrate wherein said capacitor comprises first plates and second plates in parallel alternating arrangement with dielectric there between wherein said first plates are perpendicular to said first face;
first connectors on said first face and second connectors on said second face with connectivity between each first connector of said first connectors and a second connector of said second connectors;
at least one said first connector in direct electrical contact with said first plates and at least one second connector in direct electrical contact with said second plates;
at least one said connectivity is a functional connection.
2. The interposer of claim 1 wherein said functional connection is selected from the group consisting of resistor, inductor, balun, fuse, capacitor and varistor.
3. The interposer of claim 2 wherein said resistor has a resistance of at least 10 −6 ohm to no more than 10 10 ohm.
4. The interposer of claim 1 wherein said functional connection is selected from the group consisting of resistor, inductor, fuse and capacitor.
5. The interposer of claim 1 further comprising a first external termination wherein said functional connection is between said first external termination and said first connection.
6. The interposer of claim 1 wherein at least one first connector of said first connectors is selected from the group consisting of a pin, a socket, a land grid, a wire bond, a solder pad or a solder ball.
7. An electronic package comprising:
an integrated circuit comprising an array of IC contacts;
a printed circuit board comprising an array of PCB contacts; and
an interposer of claim 1 between said integrated circuit and said printed circuit board.
8. An electronic device comprising:
an electronic package comprising:
an integrated circuit comprising an array of IC contacts;
a printed circuit board comprising an array of PCB contacts; and
an interposer of claim 1 between said integrated circuit and said printed circuit board.
