A microelectronic assembly can include a microelectronic element and a lead frame having a first unit and a second unit overlying the first unit and assembled therewith. The first unit can have a first metal layer comprising a portion of the thickness of the lead frame and including terminals and first conductive elements extending away therefrom. The second unit can have a second metal layer comprising a portion of the thickness of the lead frame and including bond pads and second conductive elements extending away therefrom. The first and second units each can have an encapsulation supporting at least portions of the respective first and second conductive elements. At least some of the second conductive elements can overlie portions of corresponding ones of the first conductive elements and can be joined thereto. The microelectronic element can have contacts electrically connected with the bond pads of the lead frame.

A microelectronic assembly includes a substrate, a first and second microelectronic elements, a lead finger, electrical connections extending between contacts of the second microelectronic element and the lead fingers, and an encapsulant overlying at least portions of the first and second microelectronic elements, lead finger and electrical connections. The substrate has contacts at a first surface and terminals at an opposed second surface that are electrically connected with the substrate contacts. The first microelectronic element has contacts exposed at its front face. The front face of the first microelectronic element is joined to the substrate contacts. The second microelectronic element overlies the first microelectronic element and has contacts at a front face facing away from the substrate. The lead frame has lead fingers, wherein the second surface of the substrate and the lead fingers define a common interface for electrical interconnection to a component external to the microelectronic assembly.

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.

An integrated circuit with a pressure resistant current carrying structure having electrically conductive layers for carrying current. A first electrically nonconductive material at least partially surrounds the electrically conductive layers, and provides electrical insulation between the electrically conductive layers. The first electrically nonconductive material has a first degree of fragility and a first dielectric constant. A second electrically nonconductive material is disposed in a pattern within the first electrically nonconductive material and between the electrically conductive layers, and provides structural support for the first electrically nonconductive material between the electrically conductive layers. The second electrically nonconductive material has a second degree of fragility that is less than the first degree of fragility and a second dielectric constant that is greater than the first dielectric constant.
摘要:
A multiple-sized integrated circuit (IC) die and a method of making a multiple-sized IC die includes forming a plurality of IC dies on a semiconductor wafer. Each IC die has multiple rows of bonding pads around its periphery. Adjacent bonding pads on separate rows of each IC die are electrically connected together so that attachment to any one of the connected bond pads yields the same result. A plurality of scribe streets separate each IC die on the wafer, with the scribe street defining the width between each IC die. Rows of bonding pads reside in the scribe street area. Different rows of bonding pads may be selectively removed from the IC die by scribing the wafer so as to include one or more of the rows of bonding pads, thereby allowing one IC die design to have multiple sizes. An IC die separated from the wafer may still be sized smaller as long as there remain at least two rows of bonding pads around the periphery.

An integrated circuit package includes a connector board and plural levels of individual conductors and conductive vias disposed through the connector board to form electrical connections between external connection pads on an undersurface of the connector board and finger connections on the upper surface of the connector board. An integrated circuit die is mounted in a central region of the connector board within confines of the individual conductors that are arranged about the die, and wire bond connections are formed between selected ones of the finger connections, the individual conductors, and the connection pads on the integrated circuit die to provide distributed connections for ground and power at one or more operating voltage levels on the individual conductors.

An apparatus and method for packaging an integrated circuit having a semiconductor die with electronic circuitry disposed thereon includes lead frames for mounting thereon solder balls of a ball grid array packaging structure. In one embodiment, the semiconductor die is coupled to conductors of the lead frame via gold wires attached to both the semiconductor die and the lead frame. The lead frame is encapsulated in plastic with apertures disposed therein for exposing upper and lower portions of conductors of the lead frame. The apertures are filled with solder balls to contact both the upper and lower portions of the lead frame conductors. Solder balls on the top of one integrated circuit package may be connected to mating solder balls on the bottom of another integrated circuit package, and so on, thereby achieving multiple stacking of integrated circuit packages.
