Patent attributes
Semiconductor packages and a method of forming a semiconductor package are described. The semiconductor package has a foundation layer mounted on a motherboard. The semiconductor package also includes a hole in motherboard (HiMB) that is formed in the motherboard. The semiconductor package has one or more capacitors mounted on an electrical shield. The electrical shield may be embedded in the HiMB of the motherboard. Accordingly, the semiconductor package has capacitors vertically embedded between the electrical shield and the HiMB of the motherboard. The semiconductor package may also have one or more HiMB sidewalls formed on the HiMB, where each of the one or more HiMB sidewalls includes at least one or more plated through holes (PTHs) with an exposed layer. The PTHs may be electrically coupled to the capacitors as the capacitors are vertically embedded between the electrical shield sidewalls and the HiMB sidewalls (i.e., three-dimensional (3D) capacitors).
