摘要:
A thermally enhanced semiconductor device (10) having an exposed backside (22) is described. In one embodiment, a PC board substrate (12) is provided having a pattern of conductive traces (14) on both upper and lower surfaces of the substrate. Electrical continuity is maintained between the two surfaces with conductive vias (16). A semiconductor die (18) is flip-mounted to the upper surface of the substrate. Solder bumps (26) electrically connect the die to the conductive traces, and an underfill (28) couples the active side (20) of the die to the upper surface of the substrate. A package body (40) is formed around the perimeter (24) of the die leaving the inactive backside exposed for enhanced thermal dissipation. The inactive backside can also be coupled to a heat sink for increased thermal dissipation. A plurality of solder balls (42) electrically connected to the conductive traces is attached to the lower surface of the substrate.

An improved packaged semiconductor device is provided having an electronic component, such as an integrated circuit, enclosed within a single layer ceramic PGA package. A cap, of substantially the same areal dimension as the base, is sealed to the base forming a cavity in which the integrated circuit is mounted. Input/output pins are attached to through-holes in the base and extend through the base and are exposed by holes in the cap aligned to the through-holes in the base. Extensive glass sealing of the cap to the base, made possible by the substantially co-extensive nature of the cap with respect to the base, provides a sturdy highly reliable seal making the packaged semiconductor device better able to withstand mechanical stress.
摘要:
An electronic device package on a lead frame with a peripheral carrier structure holding the distal ends of the leads in rigid position. The carrier structure is spaced apart from the package body and permits the package to be handled and tested while protecting the leads. A different, relatively lower quality and less expensive material is used for the carrier structure than for the package body to reduce the cost of the package since the carrier structure may comprise several times, for example four times or more, the volume of the package body.

A stackable three dimensional leadless multi-chip module (10) is provided whereby each level of semiconductor device (11) is interconnected to another level through reflowing of solder plated wires (22). Each semiconductor device (11) contains a semiconductor die (24) overmolded by a package body (12) on a PCB substrate (14) having a plurality of edge metal conductors (16) that form half-vias (18). The half-vias (18) at the edges of substrate (14) give the substrate a castellated appearance, where the castellations serve as the self-aligning feature during the stacking of the devices (11). Each device (11) is simply stacked on top of each other without any additional layers to give the semiconductor module (10) a lowest possible profile. A plurality of solder plated wires (22) fits into the half-vias (18) and is solder reflowed to the metal conductors (16) to interconnect the semiconductor devices (11). The wires (22) are bent to enable the module (10) to be surface mounted to a PC board.

A method for fabricating and especially for encapsulating a semiconductor device in a plastic package is disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention the method includes steps of providing an encapsulation mold having a first chamber and a second chamber, with the second chamber spaced outwardly from and substantially surrounding the first chamber. The first chamber is shaped to receive a removable insert. An insert is selected for the particular body type and style which is desired and that insert is secured in the first chamber. The insert has a cavity which is shaped to define the desired encapsulated device package body. A lead frame is provided including a bonding area and a plurality of leads, each lead having a inner portion near the bonding area and an outer portion extending outwardly from the bonding area. A semiconductor device die is secured to the lead frame and the lead frame with the die attached is aligned within the encapsulation mold to place the semiconductor device die and the inner ends of the leads within the cavity defined by the inserts. The outer ends of the leads extend through the second chamber. Plastic material is then injected into the mold to form the device package body about the semiconductor device die. The package body is shaped by the cavity and the inserts and the carrier ring is shaped by the second chamber.

The present invention discloses the structure and process for fabrication of an electronic package to contain and protect Package-to-Package (P2P) stacked module of integrated circuit (IC) chips. The process includes a step of providing an interposer that includes conductive traces interconnected between pre-designated contact pads disposed on a top and/or bottom surfaces for mounting at least a top or bottom packages of the IC chips with electric terminals contacting the contact pads disposed on the top and/or bottom surface of the interposer. Standoffs and passive components can also be added onto interposer in order to improve solder joints reliability, electrical performance and main board density at the same time. The inclusion of passive components on the interposer could enhance the electrical performance and the testability of the finished package stack.

摘要:
A low cost manufacturing method is used to fabricate a small multichip semiconductor device (30). In one embodiment, a pattern of conductive traces (13) is formed on a film of transfer material (12). A first semiconductor die (15) is interconnected to the traces and a resin body (20) is formed around the first die and one side of the traces. The film of transfer material forms, at this stage of the process, one side of the first package. The film of transfer material is then peeled from the pattern of conductive traces and the first resin body to expose the other side of the traces. A second semiconductor die (23) is interconnected to the exposed side of the traces. A second resin body (25) is formed around the second die and portions of the exposed traces. Solder balls (26) are coupled to the exposed portions of the traces to establish external electrical connections to each die.
摘要:
A semiconductor device (10) having first and second wiring layers (30, 33) on opposite surfaces of a carrier substrate (12) interconnected through vias (32) formed in the carrier substrate (12) electrically coupling an electronic component (18) to a mounting substrate through compliant solder balls (26) displaced away from vias (32), the semiconductor device (10) characterized by a standard size carrier substrate (12) having high performance electrical package interconnections (24) and good heat dissipation. Improved electrical performance is obtained by providing independent wiring layers (30, 33) each having a lead trace layout specifically designed for a particular electronic component (18) and a particular board connection requirement while using a standard size package outline. Assembly costs are reduced by providing a plastic package mold (36) over a standard size carrier substrate (12) capable of supporting a variety of different electronic components (18) themselves having varying dimensions.
摘要:
A pad array electronic device for mounting on a substrate, such as a printed circuit board (PCB), has a relatively rigid package body with a plurality of holes bearing connecting mechanisms for bonding to lands on the PCB. The package body may be a thermoset plastic or other material that can be injection molded around an electronic component, such as an integrated circuit (IC) bonded to a lead frame. An integrated circuit die or other electronic component is mounted in proximity with or on the lead frame and electrical connections between the integrated circuit chip and the frame are made by any conventional means. In one aspect, the substrate leads are provided at their outer ends that are exposed by holes in the package with solder balls or pads for making connections to the PCB. The package body may be optionally used to stand off the device a set distance from the PCB so that the solder balls will form the proper concave structure. The periphery of the package body may function as a carrier structure to protect the lead or connection structures during testing, handling and board mounting. The open vias permit back side testing of the device before or after mounting of the package to the PCB. Additionally, a heat sink structure and/or capacitor may be directly bonded to the side or the top of the pad array electronic device which may be used singly or in multiple, stacked configurations, to facilitate the thermal dissipation from the device.
