摘要:
A method and apparatus for encapsulating an integrated circuit die and leadframe assembly. A prepackaged sproutless mold compound insert 71 is placed in a rectangular receptacle 91 in a bottom mold chase 81. The receptacle is coupled to a plurality of die cavities 85 by runners 87. Leadframe strip assemblies containing leadframes, integrated circuit dies, and bond wires coupling the leadframes and dies are placed over the bottom mold chase 81 such that the integrated circuit dies are each centered over a bottom mold die cavity 85. A top mold chase 90 is placed over the bottom mold chase 81 and the mold compound package 71. The top mold chase 90 has die cavities 95 corresponding to those in the bottom mold chase 81. The mold compound insert 71 is preferably packaged in a plastic film 75 which has heat sealed edges 77. The mold compound is forced through the package 75 and heat seals 77 during the molding process by the pressure applied by a rectangular plunger 101. The sproutless mold compound insert is packaged so that the mold compound will exit the packaging only where runners intersect the receptacle. The sproutless mold compound insert requires no alignment or cutting tools within the mold station. The plunger is applied using variable speed and pressure to control the rate the mold compound fills the cavities in the top and bottom mold chases, thereby avoiding voids in the completed packages and minimizing wire sweep of the bond wires of the integrated circuit assemblies.

A method and apparatus for encapsulating an integrated circuit die and leadframe assembly using dambarless leadframes. Dambarless leadframe 191 is formed having leads 193 that are widened in the region near the package edge such that the interlead spacing between adjacent leads is less than a predetermined minimum distance. Lower and upper mold release films 67 and 65 are stretched over a plurality of die cavities formed in bottom and top mold chases 179 and 173. The release films can be further stretched into the die cavities by a vacuum. Leadframe strip assemblies containing the dambarless leadframes, each holding integrated circuit dies 189 are placed such that the integrated circuit dies are each centered over a bottom mold die cavity 63 and over the bottom mold release films 65. When the top and bottom mold chases are superimposed, the mold release films 67 and 65 are clamped together, and an interface is formed at the edges of the top and bottom mold cavities and between the leads of the dambarless leadframe. The mold compound is forced into the cavities by pressure. The interface between the top and bottom release films prevents the mold compound from forming mold flash between the leads of the dambarless leadframe. The dambarless leadframe includes a specific support tape 197 for the internal leads and a specialized open gate design.

A method and apparatus for providing a prepackaged mold compound for use in encapsulating integrated circuit die and leadframe assemblies. A piece of mold compound 71 is placed in a receptacle 91 in a bottom mold chase 83. The receptacle 91 is coupled to a group of die cavities 85 by runners 87. Leadframe strip assemblies containing leadframes, integrated circuit dies, and bond wires coupling the leadframes and dies are placed over the bottom mold chase 83 such that the integrated circuit dies are each centered over a bottom mold die cavity 85. A top mold chase 93 is placed over the bottom mold chase and the prepackaged mold compound 71. The prepackaged mold compound 71 is a piece of mold compound 73 packaged in a plastic film which has sealed edges 77. The edges are peelable seals, which are released during the molding process. The mold compound 73 is then forced through the seals during the molding process by the pressure applied by a plunger 101. The plunger 101 can be applied using variable speed and pressure to control the rate the mold compound 73 fills the cavities in the top and bottom mold chases, thereby avoiding voids in the completed packages and minimizing wire sweep of the bond wires of the integrated circuit assemblies.

A semiconductor package which comprises a lead frame, a semiconductor chip secured to the lead frame and a mold composition encasing the lead frame and the semiconductor chip has a filler of ceramic particles. Each of the ceramic particles, preferably silica or alumina, has macroscopic pores of sufficient size to receive a resin binder therein, the pores extending from the surface of the particle to the particle interior. A permanently hardenable composition adherable to the ceramic particles preferably an epoxy cresol novolac, extends around the ceramic particles and into the pores. The ceramic particles are formed by providing ceramic particles having a macroscopically smooth surface and subjecting the surfaces of the particles to a composition capable of removing portions of the particles, preferably hydrofluoric acid, while agitating the particles to form the pores.

A method and apparatus for encapsulating an integrated circuit die and leadframe assembly using liquid mold compound. A prepackaged liquid mold compound insert 11 is placed in a rectangular receptacle 43 in a bottom mold chase 31. The receptacle 43 is coupled to a plurality of die cavities 37 by runners 39. Leadframe strip assemblies containing leadframes, integrated circuit dies, and bond wires coupling the leadframes and dies are placed over the bottom mold chase 31 such that the integrated circuit dies are each centered over a bottom mold die cavity 35. A top mold chase 53 is placed over the bottom mold chase 31 and the mold compound package 11. The top mold chase 53 has die cavities 57 corresponding to those in the bottom mold chase 31. The prepackaged liquid mold compound is packaged in a plastic film which has heat sealed edges 15. The mold compound is forced through the heat seals 15 during the molding process by the pressure applied by a rectangular plunger 61. The plunger is applied using variable speed and pressure to control the rate the mold compound fills the cavities in the top and bottom mold chases, thereby avoiding voids in the completed packages and minimizing wire sweep of the bond wires of the integrated circuit assemblies.
