Patent ID: 11823994

Abstract:
In accordance with disclosed embodiments, there are provided systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing a Pad on Solder Mask (PoSM) semiconductor substrate package. For instance, in accordance with one embodiment, there is a substrate package having embodied therein a functional silicon die at a top layer of the substrate package; a solder resist layer beneath the functional silicon die of the substrate package; a plurality of die bumps at a bottom surface of the functional silicon die, the plurality of die bumps electrically interfacing the functional silicon die to a substrate through a plurality of solder balls at a top surface of the solder resist layer; each of the plurality of die bumps electrically interfaced to a nickel pad at least partially within the solder resist layer and beneath the solder balls; each of the plurality of die bumps electrically interfaced through the nickel pads to a conductive pad exposed at a bottom surface of the solder resist layer; and in which each of the conductive pads exposed at the bottom surface of the solder resist layer are electrically interfaced to an electrical trace at the substrate of the substrate package. Other related embodiments are disclosed.
