A SURFACE MOUNT SOLDER METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DECOUPLING CAPACITANCE AND PROCESS OF MAKING

摘要

A system to package high performance microelectronic devices, such as processors, responds to component transients. In one embodiment, the system includes a decoupling capacitor that is disposed between a Vcc electrical bump and a Vss electrical bump. The decoupling capacitor has Vcc and Vss terminals. The Vcc and Vss terminals share electrical pads with the Vcc electrical bump and the Vss electrical bump. A simple current loop is created that improves the power delivery for the system.
