Innovations in Die Side Capacitor Protection for Enhanced AI and HPC Performance

Christian Haltenberger

Advancements in semiconductor packaging are crucial to meet the rising demands of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC). In this context, Die Side Capacitors (DSCs) have emerged as a pivotal element within the packaging of CPUs and GPUs to maintain stable power supply and reduce noises to a minimum. Our work presents innovations in the field of DSC protection with a focus on LGA-based packages, as is mainly the case with CPUs, which play an important role in meeting today’s challenges in terms of efficiency, miniaturization and thermal management.
