  • Publication number: 20160163632
    Abstract: A package structure includes a dielectric layer having opposing first and second surfaces, a wiring layer formed on the first surface and having a plurality of conducive vias that penetrate the dielectric layer, an electronic component disposed on the first surface of the dielectric layer and electrically connected to the wiring layer, an encapsulant encapsulating the electronic component, and a packaging substrate disposed on the second surface and electrically connected to the conductive vias. With the dielectric layer in replacement of a conventional silicon board and the wiring layer as a signal transmission medium between the electronic component and the packaging substrate, the package structure does not need through-silicon vias. Therefore, the package structure has a simple fabrication process and a low fabrication cost. The present invention further provides a method of fabricating the package structure.
