DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The preferred mechanism and implementation method of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0017] With the development of thin film technology, lithography technology and laser technology, new impetus has been injected into the integration technology of passive devices. The new generation of electronic assembly and integration technology represented by TGV, TSV and TCV has become a new development direction for device miniaturization and three-dimensional system packaging. The application of new 5G frequency bands and the requirements of many new technologies have made high-performance miniaturized advanced RF packaging a hot research topic.

[0018] TGV process (Through Glass Via, glass through hole technology) is a process used for integrated circuit packaging, mainly used to connect chips and external circuits. The main process steps of TGV include: 1. Substrate preparation; 2. Hole production; 3. Metal filling; 4. Grinding and polishing; 5. Electroplating; 6. Post-processing. The preparation methods of TGV through holes include sandblasting, mechanical drilling, dry etching, wet etching, focused discharge, etc.

[0019] TSV (Through Silicon Via) is a new three-dimensional integrated circuit technology solution. It is the only vertical electrical interconnection technology and one of the key technologies for realizing 3D advanced packaging. TSV technology realizes vertical electrical interconnection of silicon vias by filling conductive materials such as copper, tungsten, and polysilicon. TSV can maximize the density of chip stacking in the three-dimensional direction, minimize the interconnection lines between chips, and minimize the external dimensions, significantly improve chip speed, and reduce chip power consumption. Therefore, it has become one of the most eye-catching technologies in current electronic packaging technology.

[0020] TCV (Through Ceramic Via) is a new interconnection technology used in high-density three-dimensional packaging. It uses ceramic vias to achieve vertical conduction between circuits and between circuits and additional units, so that the circuit volume is extended in three dimensions to maximize the structural density. This technology has broad application prospects in microwave circuits, optical communications, micro-electromechanical systems and other fields.

[0021] The Q value of a filter, also known as the quality factor, is an important parameter that measures the selectivity of the filter. The higher the Q value, the better the selectivity of the filter, and the more accurately it can separate signals of a specific frequency. In electronic circuits, the concept of Q value is widely used in components such as inductors, capacitors, resonators, and filters and oscillation circuits composed of them. For a bandpass filter, the Q value is defined as the ratio of the center frequency to the bandwidth between the 3dB frequency points on both sides. The larger this ratio is, the higher the frequency resolution of the filter, which means that the filter can more accurately distinguish close frequency components. For example, a filter with a center frequency of 500Hz and a -3dB bandwidth of 10Hz has a Q value of 50.

[0022] A lumped component is a component whose size is much smaller than the wavelength relative to the circuit's operating frequency, and whose impact on the circuit can be ideally equivalent to a point. In the product design process, many passive components are selected for research and development, among which the three most commonly used components are resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Compared with distributed components (such as transmission lines), lumped components (such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors) are analyzed based on points in space, and the interconnection models in signal integrity are described based on lumped components and distributed components.

[0023] A flat plate capacitor is the simplest capacitor consisting of two parallel metal plates that are very close to each other with a layer of insulating material (dielectric) sandwiched between them. The two metal plates are called the plates of a parallel capacitor.

[0024] MIM flat plate capacitors are also called plate capacitors. They have a more precise capacitance value and do not change with bias voltage.

[0025] Three-dimensional inductors are mainly used for multi-layer chip stacking and have achieved high-density integration. The design and manufacturing technology of three-dimensional inductors has made significant progress in recent years, especially the application of through-silicon via (TSV) technology, making three-dimensional spiral inductors a new choice. Three-dimensional inductors can provide higher quality factors and self-resonant frequencies, and are suitable for circuit designs that require high performance; the three-dimensional structure reduces parasitic coupling and improves the stability and efficiency of the circuit; three-dimensional inductors are widely used in low-noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, filters, oscillators, impedance matching networks, and DC-DC converters in analog, RF, and microwave circuits.

Figure 1 This is the circuit schematic of the integrated passive device filter based on the TGV process; Figure 2 This is a capacitor model diagram of an integrated passive device filter based on TGV technology; Figure 3 This is the inductance model diagram of the integrated passive device filter based on the TGV process; Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the integrated passive device filter based on the TGV process; Figure 5 It is a simulation and measured processing result diagram of the structure involved in the embodiment of the present invention; Figure 6 This is the physical structure diagram of the integrated passive device filter based on the TGV process.
