<p>This invention generally relates to methods and apparatus for connecting to an integrated circuit die, in particular where the die includes both analogue/microwave radio frequency (rf) circuitry and digital circuitry. A method of connecting a die having both microwave radio frequency (rf) circuitry and digital circuitry to a substrate of a package for the die, the die having a plurality of bond pads, some for said rf circuitry and some for said digital circuitry, the substrate having a plurality of interconnects for making external connections to said package and a plurality of substrate pads for connecting said interconnects to said die, the method comprising: connecting at least one of said bond pads for said rf circuitry to a substrate pad by connecting said rf bond pad to an intermediate substrate and connecting said intermediate substrate to said substrate pad. Preferably at least some of the bond pads for the digital circuitry are directly connected to the substrate pads, for example by wire bonding.</p> |
