  • Patent number: 7576415
    Abstract: An EMI shielded semiconductor package is provided. The package includes a substrate and a chip disposed on the substrate. The chip is electrically connected to the substrate by a plurality of bonding wires. At least one shielding conductive block is formed on the substrate and electrically connected to the ground trace of the substrate. A sealant is formed on the substrate and covers the chip, bonding wires and the shielding conductive block. The sealant has a side surface to expose a surface of the shielding conductive block. A layer of conductive film is formed on the outer surface of the sealant and covers the exposed surface of the shielding conductive block thereby shielding the chip from electromagnetic interference.

  • Publication number: 20090127682
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a chip package structure is provided. A metallic plate having a first surface, a second surface, and a first patterned metallic layer formed on the first surface thereof is provided. A half-etching process is performed to form first recesses on the first surface of the metallic plate, wherein leads are defined on the metallic plate by the first recesses. A first insulating material fills in each of the first recesses. A second patterned metallic layer is formed on the second surface of the metallic plate. A half-etching process is performed to form second recesses on the second surface of the metallic plate. The second recesses correspond to the first recesses, respectively, and expose the first insulating material inside the first recesses, such that the leads are electrically isolated from one another. A chip is placed on the metallic plate and electrically connected thereto.

  • Patent number: 7169651
    Abstract: A process for making a plurality of leadless packages is disclosed. Firstly, chips are attached onto a lead frame with a first metal layer formed thereon. After a wire bonding step and an encapsulating step are conducted, a portion of each lead of the lead frame is etched away to form a first connection pad and a second connection pad which are separated from each other but are still electrically connected to each other via the first metal layer therebetween. Then, a second metal layer is electroplated on the connection pads and the die pads by using the first metal layer as an electrical path. Finally, the first metal layer between the first connection pads and the second connection pads is removed, and a singulation step is conducted to complete the process. The present invention further provides a new lead frame design.

  • Patent number: 7087461
    Abstract: A process for making a plurality of leadless packages is disclosed. Firstly, chips are attached onto a lead frame with a first metal layer formed thereon. Each lead of the lead frame has a first portion, a second portion and a third portion connecting the first portion and the second portion, wherein the first metal layer is not provided on the third portion. After a wire bonding step and an encapsulating step are conducted, a second metal layer is selectively plated on the first portions and the second portions of the leads and the die pads exposed from the bottom of the molded product. Then, the third portion of each lead is selectively etched away such that the first portion and the second portion are electrically isolated from each other. Finally, a singulation step is conducted to complete the process. The present invention further provides a new lead frame design.
