Abstract

Apparatuses relating generally to a substrate are disclosed. In such an apparatus, first wire bond wires (“first wires”) extend from a surface of the substrate. Second wire bond wires (“second wires”) extend from the surface of the substrate. The first wires and the second wires are external to the substrate. The first wires are disposed at least partially within the second wires. The first wires are of a first height. The second wires are of a second height greater than the first height for coupling of at least one electronic component to the first wires at least partially disposed within the second wires.

Claims (44)

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a substrate;

first wire bond wires (“first wires”) in a first region, the first wires extending from a surface of the substrate;

second wire bond wires (“second wires”) in a second region, the second wires extending from the surface of the substrate;

wherein the first wires and the second wires are external to the substrate;

wherein the first region is disposed at least partially within the second region;

wherein the first wires are of a first height;

wherein the second wires are of a second height greater than the first height for coupling of at least one electronic component to first ends of the first wires;

a die coupled to second ends of the second wires; and

the die is disposed over the at least one electronic component.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the at least one electronic component includes a discrete passive component; and

the discrete passive component is coupled to the first ends of the first wires.

3. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the discrete passive component and the die are electrically coupled to one another.

4. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the discrete passive component is coupled to an interposer disposed at least partially within the second region.

5. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the discrete passive component is coupled to a redistribution layer disposed at least partially within the second region.

6. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one electronic component includes a network of two discrete passive components selected from a resistor, a capacitor, or an inductor coupled to a redistribution layer.

7. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the at least one electronic component includes a discrete electromechanical component; and

the discrete electromechanical component is coupled to the first ends of the first wires.

8. An apparatus, comprising:

a die and a redistribution layer;

a first bond via array of first wire bond wires extending from a surface of the die;

a second bond via array of second wire bond wires extending from a surface of the redistribution layer;

the first bond via array and the second bond via array external to the die and the redistribution layer, respectively;

the first bond via array disposed at least partially within a region of the second bond via array;

ends of the first wire bond wires of the first bond via array at a height opposite the surface of the die;

the second wire bond wires of the second bond via array being taller than the first wire bond wires; and

ends of the second wire bond wires at the height for interconnection at a same level as the ends of the first wire bond wires.

9. An apparatus, comprising:

a first die and a second die;

a first bond via array of first wire bond wires extending from a surface of the first die;

a second bond via array of second wire bond wires extending from a surface of the second die;

the first bond via array and the second bond via array external to the first die and the second die, respectively;

the first bond via array disposed at least partially within a first region of the second bond via array;

ends of the first wire bond wires of the first bond via array at a height opposite the surface of the first die;

the second wire bond wires of the second bond via array being taller than the first wire bond wires; and

ends of the second wire bond wires at the height for interconnection at a same level as the ends of the first wire bond wires.

10. The apparatus according to claim 9 , further comprising:

a redistribution layer;

a third bond via array with third wire bond wires external to the redistribution layer and extending from a surface of the redistribution layer;

the first bond via array and the second bond via array disposed at least partially within a second region of the third bond via array;

the third wire bond wires of the third bond via array being taller than the second wire bond wires; and

ends of the third wire bond wires at the for interconnection at the same level as the ends of the first wire bond wires and the second wire bond wires.
