It stores up controller or the received read command of processor and reading data is provided.Read/write command cause certain control signals (such as row ground
Location, column address, enable signal etc.) generation, these control signals together with certain control voltages pass through relevant peripheral equipment
It sets (such as row decoder 302 and column decoder 303) and is applied to memory cell array 301.
During write operation, data (that is, being intended for storage in the data in memory cell array 301) are write from external circuit
(such as external memory, external input device, processor, storage control, storage switch etc.) is transmitted to data register.One
Denier is stored in data register, and memory cell array 301 can be written to by conventional structure and technology by writing data, conventional to tie

As shown in figure 3, every layer of dram chip includes all DRAM operation interrelated logic blocks in Fig. 2, such as Writing/Reading control is patrolled
It collects, refresh control and internal electric source (such as Vp, Vbb, Vnwl, Vcore, Veq, Vplt etc.), these internal electric sources are needed by phase
The charge pump circuit or voltage regulator answered are adjusted to obtain correct voltage level.
Each layer dram chip in semiconductor packages aggregate shown in Fig. 2 200 respectively includes respective charge pump (Charge
Pump) circuit and voltage regulator (voltage regulator), i.e. dram chip A-D internal electric source supply having the same
Circuit, since dram chip is needed using nanoscale high-order processing procedure, and power supply chip (Power IC) generally only needs to use
Micron-sized low order processing procedure, upper 1000 times of processing procedure difference between the two, if power supply chip is integrated in dram chip, by
It is not suitable for power supply chip in dram chip manufacturing process, the efficiency that will lead to power supply chip reduces, such as from common 90%
Efficiency drops to 60% or so.In addition, power supply chip is integrated in dram chip, chip area can be occupied, improves DRAM core
The cost of piece.Meanwhile dram chip making technology is expensive, and power supply making technology is cheap.
Fig. 4 is the structural schematic diagram for showing a kind of semiconductor packages aggregate according to the embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in figure 4, embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of semiconductor packages aggregate 400, semiconductor packages set

At least one semiconductor chip, here by taking four semiconductor chip A-D as an example, but it's not limited to that for the disclosure, can basis
Specific demand is adjusted correspondingly.
In the exemplary embodiment, at least one described semiconductor chip may include multiple semiconductor chips, described more
Each semiconductor chip Electricity Functional having the same in a semiconductor chip.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 4, power-supply system 402 can by TSV 403 as power supply chip interconnection structure by its
Each builtin voltage of output is separately input into each semiconductor chip.
It should be noted that, although illustrating only multiple semiconductor chips in Fig. 4 is successively stacked vertically in the power supply system
Embodiment on system, but in other embodiments, the multiple semiconductor chip can also be respectively and directly arranged to the encapsulation
On substrate 401, i.e., each semiconductor chip is adjacent to being arranged in (side-by- in 401 transverse plane of package substrate each other
Side arrangement mode), the power-supply system is also directly arranged on the package substrate 401.In further embodiments, described

The quantity of builtin voltage out.
In the exemplary embodiment, the diameter of the power supply chip interconnection structure and at least one semiconductor chip
Quantity is related.For example, the semiconductor chip number of plies stacked in power-supply system 402 is more, then the diameter of corresponding TSV 403 is got over
Greatly, this is because when transmitting a signal to the more semiconductor chip on upper layer by TSV 403, the pressure drop generated is bigger, at this point,
Pressure drop can be reduced by increasing the quantity of the diameter of TSV 403 or the TSV 403 of parallel connection, so that each layer semiconductor
The value that chip receives the same builtin voltage is roughly equal.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 5, the diameter of each TSV 403 is for example about 20 μm, and is arranged by about 50 μm of spacing, this
It is enough to prevent the short trouble between adjacent TSV.But, as the possibility of production TSV technology develops, these diameters be can reduce
And spacing.
With continued reference to Fig. 5, which can also include: signal chip interconnection structure 404, wherein described
Signal chip interconnection structure 404 can be used for by the package substrate 401 by external control signal (such as Address,
The signals such as Command) it is input to each semiconductor chip and/or data-signal (such as DQ [0-15]) is inputted or exported fifty-fifty
