[招待講演]Modeling and Measuring Vertical Interconnects with Impedance Control Over a Wide Frequency Range
Kuan-Chung LuTzyy-Sheng HorngNational Sun Yat-sen Univ.EMCJ2016-35
抄録 (和) The advantages of vertical interconnects include superior electrical transmissions for stacked dies, higher I/O density, and heterogeneous integration. Despite the shorter physical length and superior electrical properties of the vertical interconnects, the arrangement of corresponding grounding pins drastically affects the characteristic impedance, resulting in impedance mismatch during the propagation of signals, which leads to signal reflection. Therefore, to potentially overcome this disadvantage, this work endeavors to establish the analytical model of the vertical interconnects for improving the impedance matching design. The key approach is to use the method of image charges for analyzing the substrate parasitic capacitance between the signal pin and grounding pins of the vertical interconnect. The proposed physical models are capable of predicting accurately the changes in characteristic impedance of various grounding pin arrangements in the vertical interconnect, and based on the prediction results the optimal impedance-matching design can be found. In this work, two types of vertical interconnects, through-silicon via (TSV) and pogo pin, are compared for discussion. Two physical models, one for single-ended signaling and the other for differential signaling, are developed to analyze how changes in TSV pitch-to-diameter ratio affect the characteristic impedance. Moreover, the same physical models are utilized to predict the changes in characteristic impedance caused by the alteration in the substrate parasitic capacitance between signal pin and grounding pins, under the circumstance that the information through the pogo pins is transmitted by single-ended signals with four different types of symmetric grounding architecture.

The experiment in this work aims to improve the traditional coplanar probe stations used for measuring vertical interconnects. Traditionally, to extract the frequency response of the vertical interconnects under test, complex de-embedding techniques are required to calibrate out the parasitic effects of the test vehicle. However, the effective calibration bandwidth is limited. In response to this disadvantage, this work develops a double-sided probe station and calibrates the station with the help of a zero-delay thru. This setup can avoid the complex de-embedding process to measure the high frequency electrical properties of vertical interconnects in a more direct, accurate, and rapid manner. Compared to traditional means, the proposed method significantly enhances the measurement bandwidth. Finally, comparisons of S-parameters among the modeled, EM-simulated and measured results for the TSV and pogo pin structures are obtained. The comparisons demonstrate very good agreement, thereby verifying the proposed physical modeling methods for the vertical interconnects over a wide frequency range.
