Abstract: A semiconductor package having conductive bumps on a chip and a fabrication method thereof are provided. A plurality of the conductive bumps are deposited respectively on bond pads of the chip. An encapsulation body encapsulates the chip and conductive bumps while exposing ends of the conductive bumps. A plurality of conductive traces are formed on the encapsulation body and electrically connected to the exposed ends of the conductive bumps.

Abstract: A semiconductor package with a heat sink is provided in which at least one chip is mounted on the substrate and covered by a heat sink. The heat sink is formed with a plurality of grooves or holes at positions in contact with the substrate, allowing an adhesive material to be applied between the heat sink and the substrate and filled into the grooves or holes for attaching the heat sink onto the substrate. The adhesive material filled into the grooves or holes provides an anchoring effect for firmly positioning the heat sink on the substrate. Therefore, it is not necessary to form predetermined holes on the substrate for being coupled to fixing members such as bolts, and incorporation of the heat sink would not affect trace routability and arrangement of input/output connections such as solder balls on the substrate and would not lead to cracks of the chip.

Then the upper and lower molds and the interposer are removed from the substrate to expose area covered by the interposer on the substrate. At least one photosensitive chip is mounted on the exposed area of the substrate. A lid seals the dam such that the chip is received in a space defined by the substrate, the dam and the lid.

Moreover, since the provision of these recessed portions allows an increase in the contact area of the adhesive layer with the substrate and the heat spreader, it can help increase the adhesive strength to provide the heat spreader more securely adhered in position on the substrate.

Abstract: A semiconductor package with a heat sink is proposed, in which a chip has its first surface attached to a chip carrier, while a second surface of the chip is attached to a heat sink through an adhesive, allowing heat generated by the chip to be transmitted to the heat sink. Moreover, in a molding process, a molding resin is used to form an encapsulant for encapsulating the chip, while a top surface and side surfaces connected to the top surface of the heat sink are exposed to outside of the encapsulant, that is, the heat sink merely has its bottom surface bonded to the encapsulant. This makes the generated heat directly dissipated to the atmosphere through the heat sink. Furthermore, the top surface of the heat sink is coated with an interface layer, while adhesion between the interface layer and the molding resin is smaller than that between the heat sink and the encapsulant.
