Abstract: A stackable via package includes a substrate having an upper surface and a trace on the upper surface, the trace including a terminal. A solder ball is on the terminal. The solder ball has a solder ball diameter A and a solder ball height D. A via aperture is formed in a package body enclosing the solder ball to expose the solder ball. The via aperture includes a via bottom having a via bottom diameter B and a via bottom height C from the upper surface of the substrate, where A<B and 0=<C<1/2×D. The shape of the via aperture prevents solder deformation of the solder column formed from the solder ball as well as prevents solder bridging between adjacent solder columns.

Abstract: A method of forming a stackable protruding via package including enclosing an electronic component and electrically conductive first traces on a first surface of a substrate in a package body. Protruding via apertures are formed through the package body to expose the first traces. The protruding via apertures are filled with solder to form electrically conductive vias in direct physical and electrical contact with the first traces. Via extension bumps are attached to first surfaces of the vias. The vias and the via extension bumps are reflowed to form protruding vias. The protruding vias extend from the first traces through the package body and protrude above a principal surface of the package body. The protruding vias enable electrical connection of the stackable protruding via package to a larger substrate such as a printed circuit motherboard. Further, the protruding vias in accordance with one embodiment are formed with a minimum pitch.

Abstract: A stackable semiconductor package includes a substrate with a first side surface that includes circuit patterns. Each circuit pattern includes a pad. A semiconductor die is electrically coupled to the circuit patterns. An encapsulant covers the semiconductor die and the first side surface of the substrate inward of the pads. A layer of a solder is fused to each of the pads. A lateral distance between immediately adjacent pads is selected to be greater than a lateral distance between sidewalls of the encapsulant and immediately adjacent pads, and a height of the solder layers relative to the first side surface is selected to be less than a height of the sidewalls of the encapsulant, so that misalignment of a semiconductor package stacked on the solder layers/pads is self-correcting when juxtaposed ones of the solder layers and respective solder balls of the second semiconductor package are reflowed and fused together.
