Abstract: A stacked die molded leadless package (MLP) stacks two dice and uses leads formed integrally with top and central clips and a leadframe to avoid wire bonding. The central clip leads are source and gate leads leading to source and gate portions of the central clip common to source and gate regions of both dice. The top clip and leadframe are thus connected to the drain regions of the upper and lower dice, the leads of the top clip being drain leads connected to the leadframe leads. The central clip and leadframe leads provide source, gate, and drain terminals in the finished MLP. A method of making the MLP includes flip-chip assembly of the clips, dice, and leadframes in pairs or greater simultaneous quantities. Spacers can be employed between connected components to ensure proper alignment and distribution of bonding material.

Abstract: A combination composed from a form standard and a CSP is attached to flex circuitry. Solder paste is applied to first selected locations on the flex circuitry and adhesive is applied to second selected locations on the flex circuitry. The flex circuitry and the combination of the form standard and CSP are brought into proximity with each other. During solder reflow operation, a force is applied that tends to bring the combination and flex circuitry closer together. As the heat of solder reflow melts the contacts of the CSP, the combination collapses toward the flex circuitry displacing the adhesive as the solder paste and contacts merge into solder joints. In a preferred embodiment, the form standard will be devised of heat transference material, a metal, for example, such as copper would be preferred, to improve thermal performance. In other embodiments, the methods of the invention may be used to attach a CSP without a form standard to flex circuitry.

Abstract: In a liquid crystal driver package (1a) of one embodiment of the present invention, a film base member (2) is connected to a liquid crystal driver (3) through an interposer substrate (4a). Film base member connecting terminals (13) of the interposer substrate (4a) are connected to terminals of on-film wires (5 and 6) of the film base member (2) with an anisotropic conductive adhesive. An insulating film (7) is formed at an edge section of the interposer substrate (4a) and a periphery section of the edge section. This arrangement prevents the on-film wires (5 and 6) from coming into direct contact with the interposer substrate (4a). Therefore, it becomes possible to provide an IC chip (liquid crystal driver) package in which short circuit does not occur between the on-film wires adjacent to each other.
