Magnetic coils in locally thinned silicon bridges and methods of assembling same

Abstract:

A recess in a die backside surface occupies a footprint that accommodates an inductor coil that is formed in metallization above an active surface of the die. Less semiconductive material is therefore close to the inductor coil. A ferromagnetic material is formed in the recess, or a ferromagnetic material is formed on a dielectric layer above the inductor coil. The recess may extend across a die that allows the die to be deflected at the recess.
