High-performance IC power delivery challenges system design from the IC substrate through the application printed circuit board. Current-generation mixed-signal devices demand low-impedance, resonance-free power delivery over a broad frequency range and frequently to diverse power rails. Further, the power delivery system is often integral to the signal return path. This paper describes how a new interposer technology addresses these issues simultaneously, affording better power delivery, better signal integrity, and reduced application PCB complexity.
