Patent attributes
An integrated circuit includes a buck converter controller, a PFET, an NFET that is coupled in common drain configuration to the PFET, a first microbump that is connected to the source of the PFET, a second microbump that is connected to the source of the NFET, a third microbump that is connected to the common drain node, a fourth microbump that is connected to a feedback input lead of the controller, and a plurality of other microbumps. The other microbumps are utilized to supply signals to and/or to conduct signals from the controller. A respective one of the four microbumps is disposed to occupy a respective one of the four corners of a square pattern. The other microbumps are disposed in a regular grid along with the four microbumps, but none of the other microbumps is disposed between any two of the four microbumps.
