Abstract

An electronic assembly ( 100 ) includes a mechanical carrier ( 102 ), a plurality of integrated circuits ( 104 A, 104 B) disposed on the mechanical carrier, a fan out package ( 108 ) disposed on the plurality of integrated circuits, a plurality of singulated substrates ( 112 A, 112 B) disposed on the fan out package, a plurality of electronic components ( 114 A, 114 B) disposed on the plurality of singulated substrates, and at least one stiffness ring ( 116 A, 116 B, 116 C) disposed on the plurality of singulated substrates. A method for constructing an electronic assembly includes identifying a group of known good singulated substrates, joining the group of known good singulated substrates into a substrate panel, attaching at least one bridge to the substrate panel that electrically couples at least two of the known good singulated substrates, and mounting a plurality of electronic components onto the substrate panel, each electronic component of the plurality of electronic components corresponding to a respective known good singulated substrate.

Claims (13)
