Abstract

A package with increased capacitance comprises a core and a plurality of buildup layers. The core has an inner dielectric portion and the core outer conductive layer. The buildup layers are disposed over the core and have offset ablated regions reducing the thickness of the buildup layers in the ablated regions. Conductive material is plated on the buildup layers including within the ablated regions. The reduced thickness and increased plate area due to the ablated regions increases the capacitance between adjacent buildup layers. Processors and processing systems may take advantage of the increased capacitance in the package to draw more current and operate at higher data rates.
