Abstract :
Future implantable medical devices will be highly miniaturized and almost certainly leverage die-level electronics miniaturization and packaging. Here, an integrated ultra-high density packaging platform is proposed to enable a new class of medical devices. Dense modules are obtained by interconnecting existing ASICs and discrete components using a process which achieves the highest packaging densities available.
