摘要:
An integrated circuit package assembly includes a substrate, a semiconductor die having opposing first and second surfaces, and a head-spreader. The semiconductor die is mounted on the substrate with the first surface facing the substrate. The heat-spreader includes a central region thermally coupled to the second surface of the semiconductor die, a flange region mounted on the substrate, and a side wall region between the central and flange regions. A cavity is formed between the heat-spreader, the substrate, and the semiconductor die. The heat-spreader has at least one vent extending from the cavity through the heat-spreader.

A structure and method for testing a failed integrated circuit device includes a ball grid array substrate with its heat sink removed to form a cavity where a failed bare die is to be placed. An adhesive tape is attached to the lower surface of the ball grid array substrate covering the cavity, and the die is placed into the cavity against the sticky side of the adhesive tape. Wire bonds are formed from necessary pads on the die to electrical conductors on the substrate and the cavity and bond wires are covered with epoxy. When the epoxy is cured, the adhesive tape is removed, thus exposing the back side of the die for visual inspection while under test.

摘要:
An integrated circuit package is described. The integrated circuit package comprises a substrate having a plurality of sides, where each pair of adjacent sides forms a corner; a die coupled to a first surface of the substrate; a lid having a first portion positioned over the die and a plurality of foot portions, each foot portion of the plurality of foot portions being coupled to the first surface of the substrate at a corresponding corner of the substrate, where a side of the integrated circuit package above the substrate and between two associated foot portions has an opening; and a plurality of contact elements coupled to a second surface of the substrate. A method of forming an integrated circuit package is also shown.
