Abstract:
1. An integrated circuit package comprising: a package substrate; a die attach pad formed on the package substrate for securing a die to the package substrate; a ground bonding ring formed on the package substrate for attaching core and I/O ground bond wires between the die and the package substrate; a first plurality of bond fingers formed immediately adjacent to an inside of the ground bonding ring for attaching a set of transmit I/O signal bond wires between the package substrate and the die; a power bonding ring formed immediately adjacent to an outside of the ground bonding ring for attaching I/O and core power bond wires between the die and the package substrate, wherein the ground bonding ring is disposed between the power bonding ring and the first plurality of bond fingers; a second plurality of bond fingers formed immediately adjacent to an outside of the power bonding ring for attaching a set of receive I/O signal bond wires between the package substrate and the die, wherein the power bonding ring is disposed between the second plurality of bond fingers and the ground bonding ring; and a third plurality of bond fingers formed immediately outside the second plurality of bond fingers for attaching another set of I/O signal bond wires between the package substrate and the die, wherein the second plurality of bond fingers is disposed between the third plurality of bond fingers and the power bonding ring; wherein the power bonding ring is electrically connectable to a first voltage source; wherein the ground bonding ring is electrically connectable to a second voltage source which is separate from the first voltage source; wherein the set of transmit I/O signal bond wires are of shorter length than the set of receive I/O signal bond wires.
