This article presents a hybrid printed circuit board (PCB)–computer numerical control (CNC) asymmetric stripline architecture that establishes a new performance standard with a 200% fractional bandwidth (0–20 GHz). The design utilizes a dual-transition system featuring specialized top and bottom right-angle coaxial transitions that are specifically designed to overcome the inherent challenges of asymmetrical guiding structures. While wideband characteristics are more easily achieved in end-launch configurations, this work achieves a 20:1 bandwidth ratio through a right-angle-based transition, which is technically significant due to the complex compensation required for 90° signal turns. Experimental validation of the standalone transitions demonstrates a 20:1 bandwidth ratio with a −15-dB matching level and a low insertion loss of 0.25 dB/in. As a core application, a wideband crossover prototype is demonstrated, leveraging these transitions to achieve a 3:1 bandwidth (7–21 GHz) with a −20-dB matching level, 0.5-dB insertion loss, and a high isolation of 70 dB. Unlike conventional planar crossovers that suffer from parasitic coupling and phase imbalance, this hybrid approach ensures mechanical stability and phase integrity, providing a high-performance solution for 6G beam-scanning feeding networks. The results provide a validated framework for scalable and manufacturable signal routing, outperforming existing state-of-the-art methodologies in both bandwidth and isolation.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"16 8","pages":"1844-1862"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148836399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research adopts a multidimensional methodology to analyze the influencing factors of electromigration in TSV-RDL. First, the study designs electromigration acceleration experiments based on the dual factors of temperature and current density to establish the time-varying resistance characteristic curves of the TSV-RDL. Second, scanning electron microscopy is employed to characterize the failure interfaces and to analyze the morphological differences between thermally dominant and electrically dominant failure modes. Finally, a thermal–electrical–mechanical multiphysics coupling model is constructed using the ANSYS Workbench platform. In conclusion, the study unequivocally demonstrates that the failure mechanisms in TSV-RDL structures are governed by two distinct regimes, dictated by the dominant driving force. The invariant locations of current crowding and stress concentration serve as inherent weaknesses of the structure. Crucially, the research establishes that the current density-dominated regime leads to gradual, predictable degradation, whereas the temperature-dominated regime triggers rapid, catastrophic failure. These findings provide a critical foundation for designing reliable 3-D integrations. By actively controlling the operational regime to favor current density dominance, designers can significantly extend the interconnect lifespan. Furthermore, the identified failure hotspots offer precise targets for structural reinforcement and reliability monitoring.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"16 8","pages":"1754-1761"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148836389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In silicon-based embedded fan-out integration technology, constrained by the thickness of heterogeneous chips, the maximum thickness of the embedded silicon interposer can reach <inline-formula> <tex-math>$300~mu $ </tex-math></inline-formula>m, resulting in a corresponding TSV depth of up to <inline-formula> <tex-math>$300~mu $ </tex-math></inline-formula>m.

In particular, the substantial increase in copper fill volume exacerbates the issues of copper extrusion and thermal stress, which have a more pronounced impact on interconnect reliability.

Furthermore, in comparison with nonsolid via filling, the crystal structure evolution, residual stress variation, and copper extrusion behavior of TSVs at different annealing temperatures were systematically characterized using techniques such as electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and micro-Raman spectroscopy. The underlying mechanisms governing these phenomena were also investigated in depth, providing guiding recommendations for the process development and reliability enhancement of ultradeep and large-diameter TSV structures. The results indicate that the grain evolution in the central region of large-diameter TSVs exhibits a radial gradient due to the weak pinning effect from the sidewalls.

However, increased package sizes are causing larger warpage levels to occur. As a result of larger warpage levels, the effects of warpage on the thermal performance of thermal interface materials (TIMs) inside the packages become more critical. However, current thermal characterization methodologies (e.g., ASTM D5470) use ideal surface conditions during testing and overlook the effects of chip package interactions, such as temperature- and pressure-dependent warpage during operation. Such conditions could deteriorate the contact or coverage of TIMs with the die and the heat spreader/heat sink elements in the package. In addition, the lack of a fully coupled thermal and mechanical analysis of TIMs inside IC packages increases the risk of selecting improper TIMs, which might cause thermal performance issues. To address these problems, we combine in situ thermal characterization of TIMs using packaged thermal test vehicles (TTVs) and fully coupled thermal and mechanical modeling of the package in realistic application conditions. Fully coupled thermal and mechanical modeling includes the assembly-induced warpage, warpage-induced gaps at the TIM cold plate interface, pressure-dependent TIM coverage, and their overall effects on the thermal performance of both the TIM and the packaging. The results of this study show that warpage of the die can play a crucial role in the thermal performance of the package based on the mechanical properties of the TIMs, bond line thickness (BLT), and pressure. Using the coupled thermal and mechanical modeling, the mechanisms behind the nonuniform temperature distributions measured by packaged TTV are explained, as the temperature difference between the center and the corner of the chip can increase up to a factor of 2, caused by warpage-induced gaps. Outcomes of this work can be used as a guideline for selecting proper TIMs for improved thermal management of IC packaging.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"16 7","pages":"1567-1575"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148518480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effectiveness of the optimization is verified by experiments.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"16 7","pages":"1585-1598"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148516796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
