3D Integration Breakthrough - ALLVIA Integrates Embedded Capacitors for Silicon Interposers and 3D Stacked Semiconductors

Sunnyvale, California, Feb. 23, 2010

ALLVIA, the first through-silicon via (TSV) foundry, has integrated embedded capacitors on Silicon Interposers, a key interface between a silicon device and an organic substrate needed for managing high interconnect densities. Capacitance values higher than 1,500 nF/cm2 have been achieved for the embedded capacitors developed for delivering power to the devices. 3D integration with ALLVIA's through-silicon via technology allows much closer access to high value capacitors than previously possible, leading to a much higher level of electrical performance.
