Abstract
A package substrate having a first redistribution layer (RDL1) and a second redistribution layer (RDL2) is disclosed for a multichip package. The first redistribution layer RDL1 is built according to a first design rule. The second redistribution layer RDL2 is built according to a second design rule and configured on a bottom of the first redistribution layer RDL1. The second design rule has a lower circuitry density than the first design rule has. A lateral communication circuitry is built within the first redistribution layer RDL1 according to the first design rule adaptive for bridging neighboring chips which are configured on a top surface of the first redistribution layer RDL1.
Claims20
A package substrate, comprising:
- a first redistribution layer (RDL) configured according to a first design rule, and having:
- a first dielectric layer;
- and
- a first redistribution circuitry embedded in the first dielectric layer;
- wherein the first redistribution circuitry comprises a first left redistribution circuitry and a first right redistribution circuitry;
- a second redistribution layer (RDL) configured according to a second design rule and having:
- a second dielectric layer;
- and
- a second redistribution circuitry embedded in the second dielectric layer;
- wherein
- the second redistribution circuitry comprises a second left redistribution circuitry and a second right redistribution circuitry;
- the second left redistribution circuitry is configured on a bottom of the first left redistribution circuitry and electrically coupled to the first left redistribution circuitry;
- and
- the second right redistribution circuitry is configured on a bottom of the first right redistribution circuitry and electrically coupled to the first right redistribution circuitry;
- and
- a lateral communication circuitry configured according to the first design rule, in the first RDL and between the first left redistribution circuitry and the first right redistribution circuitry, wherein the lateral communication circuitry extends substantially parallel to a top surface of the second dielectric layer, wherein
- the lateral communication circuitry electrically couples the first left redistribution circuitry and the first right redistribution circuitry, and
- the second design rule has a lower circuitry density including a wider line width and a greater line thickness than those of the first design rule.
