Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of semiconductor technology, specifically silicon-based integrated passive device (IPD) technology, and particularly relates to a single capacitor-resistor parallel integrated on-chip system based on through-silicon via (TSV) technology. Background Technology
[0002] As radio frequency and high-speed circuits develop towards higher frequencies, miniaturization, and higher integration, RC parallel passive networks have become the core unit for power supply decoupling, RF damping, impedance matching, and signal termination. Traditional solutions use discrete resistors and capacitors for surface mounting, which has drawbacks such as large parasitic inductance of leads, large footprint, numerous solder joints, low reliability, and fixed, non-adjustable resistor values.
[0003] While existing silicon-based integrated passive devices can integrate resistors and capacitors on the chip, they generally have the following problems: they only support fixed resistance values, lack multi-level switching capability, and cannot adapt to the damping and impedance adjustment requirements under different operating conditions; they mostly adopt planar thin film structures, resulting in large parasitic parameters and limited high-frequency performance. Traditional silicon capacitors use U-shaped deep trench blind vias, which result in poor etching uniformity, large capacitance deviation, high fabrication stress, and easy breakage; they also fail to achieve parallel topology optimization and common pad architecture design for single capacitors and multi-level resistors.
[0004] The applicant's prior patent CN202510164294.X discloses a double-sided open silicon through-hole capacitor, which adopts a cylindrical / prismatic / dumbbell-shaped through-hole structure, solving the problems of poor capacitance uniformity and stress breakage in blind-hole capacitors, with capacitance uniformity <1.3%. However, this patent only implements a single capacitor device and does not involve resistor integration, RC parallel network, or multi-level adjustable design, thus failing to meet the application requirements of on-chip RC adjustable networks.
[0005] Therefore, considering the aforementioned technical problems, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution. Summary of the Invention
