Apparatus and method for repairing electronic packages

摘要

A multi chip module substrate arranged with repair vias and repair lines extending between repair vias of the chip sites of the module by which repairs can be effected to overcome defects in the module circuits and a method for effecting the repairs of defects in the circuits of this module. A defect can occur in any one of a first signal via, a second signal via, and a circuit line extending between and intended to electrically connect the first signal via and the second signal via. After a defective circuit is identified, the signal vias of the circuit are isolated. Then, the first signal via of the defective circuit is electrically connected to that repair via of the chip site having the first signal via that is connected to that repair via of the chip site having the second signal via and the second signal via of the defective circuit is electrically connected to that repair via of the chip site having the second signal via that is connected to that repair via of the chip site having the first signal via.
