Abstract:
The present disclosure provides packages and methods for fabricating packages. A package may comprise a wafer-level package (WLP) layer comprising a WLP contact and a component within the WLP layer associated with a component depth. A conductive pillar is disposed on the WLP contact and comprises an opposite surface that forms an array pad. The package further comprises a mold over the WLP layer and at least partially surrounding the conductive pillar, wherein the mold compound and the array pad form a substantially planar land grid array (LGA) contact surface that is configured to couple the package to a land grid array. The LGA contact surface has a height that is equal to a selected LGA component height, and the selected LGA component height is equal to a difference between a keepout distance associated with a characteristic of the component within the WLP layer and the component depth.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for balancing current delivery. The method couples a low resistance portion of a ball grid array (BGA) to an input portion by at least two vias forming a three-dimensional section. The method couples at least one ball of the BGA to the low resistance portion over a narrow trace.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides packages and methods for fabricating packages. A package may comprise a wafer-level package (WLP) layer comprising first and second WLP contacts and first and second conductive pillars disposed on the first and second WLP contacts. Each conductive pillar may comprise a surface opposite the WLP contact that forms an array pad. The array pads may have different sizes. The package may further comprise a mold over the WLP layer and at least partially surrounding the conductive pillars, wherein the mold compound and the first array pads form a substantially planar LGA contact surface that is configured to couple the package to a land grid array.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a fan-out wafer level packaging (FOWLP) apparatus includes a semiconductor die having at least one input/output (I/O) connection, a first plurality of package balls having a first package ball layout, a first conductive layer forming a first redistribution layer (RDL) and configured to electrically couple to the first plurality of package balls, and a second conductive layer forming a second RDL and including at least one conductive pillar configured to electrically couple the at least one I/O connection of the semiconductor die to the first conductive layer, wherein the second conductive layer enables the semiconductor die to be electrically coupled to a second plurality of package balls having a second package ball layout without a change in position of the at least one I/O connection of the semiconductor die.
