ABSTRACT:
A multi-chip module wherein electrical components, such as integrated circuit devices, are packaged in a three dimensional arrangement. The multi-chip module includes a first, or upper, substrate including a signal layer formed on the top surface of the substrate and at least one integrated circuit device mounted to the top surface of the substrate and electrically connected to the signal layer. The module further includes a second, or internal, substrate, also including a first signal layer formed on the top surface of the substrate and at least one integrated circuit device mounted to the top surface of the substrate and electrically connected with the signal layer formed on the top surface of the second substrate. The second substrate includes a cavity through the substrate corresponding to each integrated circuit device mounted thereto. Each integrated circuit device mounted to the second substrate is placed within its corresponding cavity so that its top and bottom surfaces are flush with the top and bottom surfaces of the second substrate. Electrical signal paths are provided through the first substrate to electrically connect the integrated circuit devices mounted to the first and second substrates, and through the first and second substrates to electrically connect the multi-chip module components and circuitry to a printed circuit board to which the module is mounted. The multi-chip module may include two, three, or more signal layers and substrates connected as described herein.
