1 Analysis of Power Distribution Network in Glass, Silicon Interposer and PCB Youngwoo Kim, Kiyeong Kim Jonghyun Cho, and Joungho Kim Department of Electrical Engineering, KAIST Daejeon, South Korea Venky Sundaram and Rao Tummala 3D Systems Packaging Research Center Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta, GA 30332, USA Abstract 3D integration using a glass interposer and through glass via technologies is expected to improve the performance of a whole system significantly. However, due to the high quality factor of the glass substrate, the sharp impedance peaks on the Power Distribution Networks arise at the resonances. When the mode resonances occur, performance of a whole system could be degraded. Segmentation based impedanceestimation was used to analyze the PDN impedance and analyzed system degradation at resonance frequencies. To maximize advantages of the glass interposers, the PDN should be carefully designed to suppress the resonances. Considering the current status of the glass fabrication processes, we propose that placing the ground vias near the signal vias is the most promising solution for maximizing the advantages of the glass interposers. Keywords interposer; PDN; glass; silicon; pcb; resonance, segmentation method I. INTRODUCTION Recently, semiconductor industries have difficulties to overcome technical challenges associated with the performance saturation and limitation of CMOS technologies. 3D-Integration is expected to be the next generation solution for system integration to achieve higher electrical performance and at the same time reducing size of the whole systems. However, it is still difficult to produce 3D products due to low yield and high cost. Because these factors are critical to the companies and customers, a new packaging technology using an interposer, so called 2.5D integration is proposed. In the 2.5D integration, an interposer which is an interconnecting medium is used to enable communication between various ICs such as 3D stacked DRAMs, RF sensors and processors. Interposers must have finer line pitch compared to PCB/PKGs to mount ICs more compactly and have more I/Os. Because of these reasons 2.5D-ICs using an interposer have comparable electrical performance and size to 3D-ICs. For the interposer substrate, silicon was proposed because CMOS process has the longest history thus most advanced among the semiconductor processes. Therefore using silicon as an interposer substrate can enable very fine metal routing. However, silicon shows high insertion loss which can degrade performance of the whole system at the high frequency due to conductivity and additionally very high in cost resulting from the fine on-chip metal processes. To overcome these difficulties that hinder 2.5D integration, glass can be used for the interposer substrates. Compared to silicon interposers which are fabricated by processing the wafers, glass interposers use large panel processes which has higher yield [1]. Also glass has no conductivity which will result in low insertion loss of the signal at the high frequency [2]. Even though minimum metal width and space on the glass interposer are larger than that of silicon, it is enough to be used for the signal routing on both side of an interposer and soon, they are expected to be smaller. It is apparent that glass has many advantages, however to take advantages of the glass over silicon and FR-4 used as a conventional PCBs/PKGs substrate, careful electrical design is required. When the signal passes through the substrate, discontinuity in the return current path arises. Return current of the signal flows through the parasitic capacitor formed between the power and ground planes thus it is heavily affected by the substrate materials. Due to the high Q-factor, sharp impedance peaks are generated on the PDN at resonance frequencies. When the resonances occur, signal quality of the glass interposers could be worse than that of silicon interposers. At the same time, noise could be coupled to the P/G planes since the signal vias can operate as a switching current source [3]. Fig.1 illustrates possible problems that could arise at the mode resonances. Therefore the PDNs of glass interposers should be carefully designed to suppress the mode resonances. Fig.1. Possible problems that could occur at resonance frequencies of 2.5D-IC with double side glass interposer /14/$ IEEE 470
2 In this paper, we compare the PDN self-impedance of the glass, silicon interposer and PCB and correlate them with insertion loss. At the mode resonances, signal quality of the glass interposers and PCBs was severely degraded, which was worse than that of silicon interposers. Additionally, at the resonance frequencies, noise could be coupled to the power/ground planes. The PDN impedance of glass, silicon interposer and PCB are estimated and analyzed using the segmentation method to reduce computational resources and time. Based on analysis, resonance suppression methods are proposed. (a) II. COMPARISON OF PDN IMPEDANCE BETWEEN GLASS, SILICON INTERPOSER AND PCB A. PDN Impedance estimation using a Segmentation-method Appearance of the sharp impedance peaks on the PDNs at the mode resonance frequencies depends on port locations. By using the segmentation method, we can accurately estimate the PDN impedance of an interposer with different port configuration in short time [4]. To estimate the PDN impedance of the glass, silicon interposers and PCBs, unit cell of each structure should be modeled. Only difference between three structures is the substrate material. Dielectric material and dimensions are fixed to analyze the effect of material on the PDN impedance solely. Cross-sectional view and its unit cell are shown in Fig. 2-(a) and respectively. By dividing the whole structure into the unit cells that are smaller than the wavelength of target frequency over 20, it is possible to model unit cells with lumped elements. As can be seen in Fig.2, target structures consist of different dielectric layers between the P/G planes. By calculating the effective complex permittivity of the mixture using equation (1) [5], the shunt conductance (G) can be automatically included in the capacitance (C) between P/G planes. σ ε ( ω) = ε r + (1a) jε 0 ω ε eff ( ω) = htotal h1 h2 h3 + + ε ( ω) ε ( ω) ε ( ω) ZS-100 SUB ZS-100 (1b) Impedance estimation using the segmentation can be implemented by applying the boundary condition of voltage and current between adjacent cells. Estimated self-impedance seen at the center of the glass, silicon interposer and PCB is shown in Fig. 2-. Since silicon has the highest relative dielectric constant among three materials, silicon interposer shows largest capacitance compared to the glass interposer and PCB. Glass and FR-4 have almost the same relative dielectric constant, their PDN impedance are almost identical. Due to the conductivity of silicon, the sharp impedance peaks on the PDN at the mode resonances do not appear. For the glass interposer and PCB, sharp impedance peaks appear at resonances, but since glass has lower loss compare to PCB, peaks are sharper. Fig.2 (a), Cross sectional view of structures and unit cell care illustrated. Self-impedance seen at center of glass, silicon interposer and PCB were estimated by a segmentation method. B. Insertion loss comparison between Glass, Silicon Interposer and PCB Even though glass substrate has no loss since the conductivity of glass is zero, signal quality can be severely damaged when the signal passed through via when resonances occur; it can be worse than that of silicon. Fig.3 shows the cross sectional and the top view of a via transition structure with dimensions. Also it contains a port configuration. Correlation between the PDN and the insertion loss is depicted in Fig.3-. Mode numbers are also listed in the Fig.3- and that frequencies were exactly the same compared to the mode resonance formula (2). f mn c mπ nπ = ( ) + ( ) 2π ε a b eff 2 2 Due to the conductivity of substrate, insertion loss of the silicon interposer was larger than glass interposer and PCB at most frequencies. Insertion loss of glass interposer and PCB showed similar characteristics; lower than silicon for most frequencies, but suddenly increased at the resonance frequencies. As frequency goes up, insertion loss of PCB gradually increased due to the dielectric loss of FR-4 substrate. Therefore it can be expected that the glass interposers have the best signal transfer characteristics among three candidates; if the resonances are suppressed. (2) 471

Substrate thickness and polymer thickness are the same as Fig.2 (a). Correlation between PDN impedance and insertion loss of each structure is illustrated. Numbers in parenthesis are mode resonance number. Frequencies where impedance peaks and insertion loss peaks appear well correlated. C. Signal Quality comparison between glass, silicon interposer and PCB at resonance frequencies and P/G noise coupling As can be seen in the section B, the signal quality can be severely distorted by the resonance. In this section, signal transfer characteristics were analyzed by using the eye diagram simulation. It is apparent that at the frequency where resonance does not appear, glass will show the best signal transfer characteristics. Therefore the eye diagrams were simulated at the data rate equal to certain resonance frequency to investigate how much resonance affects the signal. Also at that frequency, noise coupling voltage was observed at P/G planes. Simulation was carried out by applying PRBS signal with amplitude of 1V at port 1 and eye diagram was simulated at the port 2. Noise coupled to the P/G planes were observed at the port located at the side of each structure. Fig. 4 contains eye diagram and P/G noise of each structure at 26.6Gbps which corresponds to the mode (2,1) and (1,2) resonance s frequency. It can be seen that at the resonance frequencies of a glass interposer and PCB, signal was distorted. Timing jitter of a glass interposer was 4ps (13.3% of UI), where the jitter of a silicon interposer was only 2ps (6.7% of UI). Also about 50mV to 70mV noise, which is about 5~7% of an input signal was coupled to the P/G planes. To maximize the advantages of the glass interposers, resonance suppression is crucial. PCB Fig. 4 Eye diagram and noise coupling through P/G planes were simulated at 26.6Gbps which corresponds to resonance frequency. (a) Glass interposer, Silicon interposer, PCB III. SOLUTION FOR SUPPRESSING MODE RESONANCE OF GLASS INTERPOSER As can be seen in the Fig.3-, when the resonances occur, return current experience the high impedance. Also unwanted noise can be coupled to the PDNs. In 2.5D-ICs, various components are connected to the PDNs, therefore when the resonances occur, noise can be coupled to other components. To minimize the drawbacks of glass interposers, the PDNs should be designed to provide the return paths which have the low impedance. By placing decoupling capacitors or the ground vias near the signal vias, return current path discontinuity can be solved. However, placing the decoupling capacitors can solve many Power Integrity problems; it might not be the appropriate solution for the glass interposers resonance suppression. Decoupling capacitor pad sizes in glass interposer are still large. Due to this reason, the distance between the power and ground pins of the decoupling capacitors increase which cannot provide appropriate return current path. Also, a decoupling capacitor itself generates another resonance. New impedance peak is generated on the PDN, at that frequency, unexpected signal loss can occur [3]. Fig5.-(a) shows a decoupling capacitor configuration: 0603 size decoupling capacitors with 10pF are placed 300um away from the signal vias. Fig5- shows a simulation result of the PDN impedance and insertion loss of the glass interposer with and without four 10pF 0603 decoupling capacitors. 472
4 (a) (a) Fig5. (a) Shows a top view of glass interposer with four 10pF 0603 capacitors and Insertion loss and Self-impedance are compared between glass interposer with and without decoupling capacitors. As can be seen in the Fig5-, placing the 0603 decoupling capacitors did not affect much on neither PDN impedance nor insertion loss; only some peaks are shifted to the higher frequency. Therefore we can conclude that placing the decoupling capacitors might not be the suitable solution for the glass interposer s resonance problems. Another solution is placing the ground vias near the signal vias to provide the return current path with the low impedance. As can be seen in Fig. 6-(a), two ground vias were located 120um away from the signal vias. Fig. 6- contains the PDN impedance and insertion loss of glass interposer simulated with and without ground vias. In Fig. 6- and (d), eye diagram and P/G noise coupling of both cases are compared. By locating the ground vias near the signal vias suppressed the magnitude of the impedance peaks on the PDN at the resonances. Additionally, insertion loss at the resonances also decreased. As can be seen in Fig.6- eye opening increased at 26.6Gpbs which is resonance frequency; 0.284V to 0.317V. Timing jitter decreased to 2ps (6.7%) which is half of 4ps (13.3%). Additionally, magnitude of noise coupled to P/G planes went down significantly. By placing the ground vias near signal vias, The P/G noise coupling decreased and signal quality was improved. (d) Fig.6 (a) Ground vias are located near signal vias to provide the return current path. Design rules were provided by Georgia Tech Packaging Research Center. PDN impedance and insertion loss of glass interposer with and without ground vias are compared. For the glass interposer containing ground vias, it is simulated with ground of PCB connected to interposer. Eye-diagram simulation results of glass interposer with and without ground vias near signal vias. (d) P/G noise coupling comparison Therefore we can conclude placing the ground vias is the best solutions for suppressing the mode resonances of the glass interposers to maximize its advantages. 473
5 I. CONCLUSION 2.5D-Integration based on interposer and through via technologies is promising solution to achieve high system performance and reducing the size of a whole system. Usually silicon is used as a substrate material of an interposer; however it is expensive and suffers signal loss at the high frequency. As an alternative, glass can be used as a substrate material which can solve the problems of the silicon interposers. However, due to the low loss of the glass substrate, the return current suffers the high impedance at the resonance frequencies. At the resonances of the glass interposers, signal is distorted and noise can be coupled to other components integrated on interposer via PDN. To maximize the advantages of the glass interposers, placing the ground vias near the signal vias is mandatory when designing the PDNs of glass interposers.
