INTERCONNECT WITH TWO-DIMENSIONAL FREE ZERO LINE END ENCLOSURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17808316 titled 'INTERCONNECT WITH TWO-DIMENSIONAL FREE ZERO LINE END ENCLOSURE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a technology for providing interconnects with a specific type of enclosure. The interconnects consist of two metal lines connected by a via.

  • The first metal line has a zero line extension at one end in a certain dimension.
  • The second metal line has a zero line extension at one end in a perpendicular dimension to the first dimension.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Integrated circuits and semiconductor devices
  • Electronics manufacturing and assembly
  • Communication systems and networks

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures proper connection and signal transmission between metal lines
  • Reduces signal interference and noise
  • Improves overall performance and reliability of interconnects

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced signal integrity and quality
  • Increased efficiency and speed of data transmission
  • Improved reliability and durability of interconnects


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the invention include providing interconnects with two-dimensional free zero line end enclosure. A first metal line is formed. A second metal line is connected by a via to the first metal line, the first metal line having a first end with a zero line extension in relation to the via in a first dimension, the second metal line having another first end with a zero line extension in relation to the via in a second dimension perpendicular to the first dimension.
