Abstract

An embedded multi-die interconnect bridge (EMIB) is fabricated on a substrate using photolithographic techniques, and the EMIB is separated from the substrate and placed on the penultimate layer of an integrated-circuit package substrate, below the top solder-resist layer. A low Z-height of the EMIB, allows for useful trace and via real estate below the EMIB, to be employed in the package substrate.
