摘要:
A molded tape ball grid array package has a base structure including a heat conductive substrate and flex tape extending from opposing regions on a surface of the substrate with molded plastic material between the flex tape and the substrate. The flex tape has at least one conductive metal lead pattern which can be positioned on a side of the tape facing the substrate with a plurality of apertures exposing the conductive lead pattern from an opposing side of the tape for solder ball bonding. A semiconductor integrated circuit chip is mounted to a central portion of the substrate between the opposing regions of the flex tape with wire bonding interconnecting bond pads on the chip to the metal lead pattern. The chip and wire bonding are then encapsulated on the substrate. The structure is economical and permits high power dissipation from an integrated circuit. The molding process in fabricating the integrated circuit package is economical and readily implemented using injection molding.

A semiconductor device and fabrication method are presented which advantageously combine TAB and wire bonding techniques to increase integrated circuit I/O pad density. The semiconductor device includes an integrated circuit, a substrate, and a carrier film (i.e., a TAB tape). The integrated circuit has a set of input/output (I/O) pads arranged upon an upper surface. The substrate has a die cavity within an upper surface and a set of bond traces arranged about the die cavity. An underside surface of the integrated circuit is attached to the substrate within the die cavity. The carrier film is positioned over the upper surface of the substrate such that the upper surface of the integrated circuit is exposed through a die aperture and portions of the members of the set of bond traces are exposed through corresponding members of a set of bond trace apertures. Each conductor has a first end connected to a member of the set of bond traces and an opposed second end connected to a corresponding member of a portion of the set of I/O pads. Each of the remaining members of the I/O pads are connected to respective bond traces adjacent to the die cavity by bonding wires. By combining TAB and wire bonding techniques, the number of I/O pads per unit of upper surface area of the integrated circuit may be increased.

A ball grid array package in which one or more conductive rings are positioned on a surface of the package substrate along with solder bond contacts on the surface of the substrate to facilitate the interconnection of wire bonds to an integrated circuit chip on the surface of the substrate. The use of rings allows for better distribution of power to the chip since a plurality of wires can be connected between the chip and the conductive rings for power distribution. The rings create a different shelf for the power and ground bonds on the substrate, and by providing a vertical separation between the surfaces of the rings and bonding pads on the surface of the substrate more bonds in the package can be accommodated.

A single leadframe package having stacked integrated chips mounted therein provides multiple electrical functions. The leadframe package construction includes a leadframe die having a substantially smaller outer peripheral dimension than a first integrated circuit chip mounted face down thereon for supporting from below the first integrated chip without obstructing its bond pads. A second integrated circuit is supported from below in a backside to backside configuration by the first integrated circuit without obstructing the bond pads of the second integrated circuit. A plurality of substantially short conductive wires interconnect electrically the first and second integrated circuit chips with selective ones of a plurality of leadframe conductors. An encapsulating material molds the construction into the single leadframe package.

A removable heatsink assembly comprised of a heatsink unit and a heatspreader is provided. The heatsink unit has at least one fin and a coupling collar for radiating heat away from a packaged electronic device. The heatspreader includes a platform attached to an inner collar in thermal contact with the packaged electronic device. The platform has one or more tabs suitable for mating with one or more flanges located on the coupling collar of the heatsink unit. Coupling grooves within the flanges engage the platform of the heatspreader when the flanges are mated with the heatspreader tabs and the heatsink is turned. The heatsink can therefore be quickly and conveniently attached to or removed from the heatspreader. The present invention thus permits a wide variety of different heatsinks to be interchangeably used with a single heatspreader attached to an electronic device package.

A molded pin-grid-array package includes a heat sink available at the face opposite to the pins. The heat sink is secured to a printed wiring board that has plated through holes therein that form the desired pin-grip-array and wires are secured in the holes to form the package pins. The heat sink covers an aperture in the board and the semiconductor die is secured to the heat sink inside the cavity thereby formed. After the semiconductor die is attached and the bonding pads connected to the metal traces on the board, the assembly is placed in a transfer mold. Plastic encapsulant is then transfer molded to encapsulate the semiconductor die and to extend flush with the heat sink to form a skirt around the periphery of the board. This leaves the molded package with an available heat sink face for efficient cooling after the package is mounted for ultimate use.

A method and apparatus for providing a ball grid array assembly formed from interlocking ball grid array packages is disclosed. Each of the ball grid array packages has interlocking edge features for mechanical connection, whereby joining the plurality of ball grid array packages via the interlocking edge features forms the interlocking ball grid array assembly. The interlocking ball grid array assembly may then be mounted on a PC board as a single unit.

An integrated circuit includes a semiconductor integrated circuit chip housed in a package providing external electrical connections for the circuit chip. The package has only a limited number of external connections available for such use. The package includes an internal buss, or plurality of busses, which are electrically connected to the circuit chip and to selected external connections of the package to improve the efficiency of utilization of external connections on the package, as well as improving operating characteristics of the integrated circuit chip by improvements to voltage and current distributions to the chip, and also eliminating in some cases the consequences of a poor quality of external electrical connection to the package itself.
