Smoltek patent No. 73 now granted

Smoltek is awarded yet another approved patent, the third this year. The patent, granted in Japan is part of our patent family protecting solutions for interposers based on the CNF-MIM capacitor concept. This also means that our patent portfolio now comprises 73 granted patents.

April 14, 2022

The pat­ent, recently gran­ted in Japan, cov­ers our CNF-MIM capa­cit­or tech­no­logy and vari­ous use cases for the same, primar­ily in the field of inter­posers for advanced pack­aging and het­ero­gen­ous integ­ra­tion of semiconductors.

Inter­posers are fre­quently used in today’s advanced pack­aging archi­tec­tures for integ­rated cir­cuits, for example com­monly used for micro­pro­cessors and het­ero­gen­eous integ­ra­tions. The present pat­en­ted con­cepts are built on the need to improve cir­cuit per­form­ance by enabling smarter inter­posers that integ­rates one or sev­er­al com­pact energy stor­age devices.

Smoltek’s inven­tions facil­it­ate integ­ra­tion of extremely thin sol­id state energy stor­age devices, such as CNF-MIM capa­cit­ors, closer to the inter­con­nec­tion points and power rails of the act­ive chips. The CNF-MIM tech­no­logy offers industry’s smal­lest form-factor for integ­rated high-per­form­ance capa­cit­ors, this by provid­ing very high capa­cit­ance per area at a frag­ment of height com­pared with today’s technologies.

Smoltek’s pat­ent port­fo­lio now glob­ally com­prises 73 gran­ted pat­ents. Read more about our IP and patents.
