Abstract:
Consistent with an example embodiment, there is a method for packaging an integrated circuit (IC) device. The method comprises attaching a lead frame to the carrier tape; the lead frame has an array of device positions on the carrier tape and pad landings surround the device positions for making electrical connections to the plurality of active device die. A plurality of active device die are mounted on the carrier tape within the array of device positions; each said active device die has bond pads, each of said active device die has been subjected to back-grinding to a prescribed thickness and has a solderable conductive surface on its underside. On the bond pads, the plurality of active devices are wire bonded to the pad landings on the lead frame. The lead frame and wire bonded active devices are encapsulated, leaving the solderable die backside and lead frame backside exposed.
Abstract:
Consistent with an example embodiment, there is a method for preparing an integrated circuit (IC) device having enhanced heat dissipation. The method comprises providing a lead frame array, of a first thickness, with a plurality of die placement areas each die placement area with bond pad landings, the bond bad landings situated about a die placement area on one or multiple sides, the bond pad landings having upper surfaces and opposite lower surfaces, placing a heat sink assembly of a second thickness, having at least two mounting tabs of the first thickness, in each die placement area and attaching the at least two mounting tabs onto corresponding bond pad landings serving as anchor pads, die bonding a device die on the heat sink device assembly, conductively bonding device die bond pads to corresponding bond pad landings, and encapsulating the wire bonded device die, heat sink assembly and lead frame array in a molding compound.
Abstract:
In an example embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) comprises a device die having a top-side surface and an under-side surface, the top-side surface having bond pads connected to active circuit elements, the under-side surface having a conductive surface. A first set of lead frame clips having upper portions and lower portions, are solder-anchored, on the upper portions, to a first set of bond pads; the lower portions are flush with the conductive surface. Wires are bonded to an additional set of bond pads opposite the first set of bond pads and to lower lead frame portions of a second set of lead frame clips opposite the first set of lead frame clips; the lower lead frame portions of the second set of lead frame clips are flush with the conductive surface. The device is encapsulated in a molding compound leaving exposed the conductive surface and underside surfaces of the first and second sets of the lead frame portions.
