SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE WITH A POWER CONVERTER MODULE

Abstract:

A semiconductor device includes a die with a power converter module. The power converter module includes an output port and a return port. The semiconductor device also includes a connection assembly that includes pads configured to be coupled to circuit components of a printed circuit board (PCB). The connection assembly also includes a first layer patterned to include a first trace that is coupled to one of the output port and the return port and a second trace that is coupled to the other of the output port and return port. A second layer of the connection assembly is patterned to provide a first via between the first trace and a third layer and a second via between the first trace and the third layer. The third layer is patterned to provide a portion of a first conductive path and a portion of a second conductive path.
