Abstract:
1. A ball grid array (BGA) package comprising: a plurality of conductive balls coupled to a substrate, wherein the conductive balls comprise a first set of conductive balls and a second set of conductive balls different from the first set and forming a perimeter around the first set, wherein the first set comprises conductive balls for supplying power to and for grounding a die in which electronic circuitry is formed; and a plurality of conductive trace rings routed in parallel in one layer on the substrate, the conductive trace rings coupled to respective and mutually exclusive subsets of the conductive balls, wherein the subsets comprise a first subset of the first set, the first subset useful for supplying power to a die in which electronic circuitry is formed, the first subset coupled to the die via a first conductive trace ring coupled to each conductive ball in the first subset, the first conductive trace ring also coupled to the die via a first bond wire.
