1. A multi-chip module (MCM) comprising:
- a packaging substrate;
an interposer coupled to the substrate, the interposer comprising a voltage regulator coupled to one or more vias; and
a CMOS integrated circuit comprising one or more connecters aligned with and disposed proximate to the one or more vias to thereby electrically couple the interposer to the integrated circuit.

Abstract
A multi-chip module (MCM) is disclosed, which in some embodiments can include a packaging substrate, an interposer coupled to the substrate and having a power converter coupled to one or more vias, and a CMOS integrated circuit comprising one or more connecters aligned with and disposed proximate to the one or more vias to electrically couple the interposer to the integrated circuit. Methods of forming a voltage regulator on an interposer of a multi-chip module (MCM) are also provided.

12. A method of forming a voltage regulator on an interposer of a multi-chip module (MCM) comprising:
-
depositing on the interposer a magnetic alloy under a magnetic biasing field to form a plurality of magnetic cores including a top core and a bottom core; inverse coupling adjacent magnetic cores of the plurality of magnetic cores; forming copper windings about each of the plurality of magnetic cores; forming one or more electrodes on the top magnetic core and on the bottom magnetic core; electrically isolating the copper windings from the bottom magnetic core using a layer of barrier material; electrically isolating the copper windings from the top magnetic core using a resist process; joining the electrodes of bottom magnetic core and the top magnetic core to one or more respective pads on the interposer; and forming vias through the interposer proximate the one or more pads. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
