Abstract: A semiconductor package includes: a first encapsulant having tapered through holes each having a wide top and a narrow bottom; tapered electrical contacts disposed in the tapered through holes; circuits disposed on a top surface of the first encapsulant and each having one end connecting one of the electrical contacts and the other end having a bonding pad disposed thereon such that the bonding pads are circumferentially arranged to define a die attach area on the top surface of the first encapsulant. As such, a semiconductor chip can be disposed on the top surface of the first encapsulant in the die attach area and electrically connected to the bonding pads through conductive elements, and further a second encapsulant encapsulates the semiconductor chip, the conductive elements, the circuits and the first encapsulant so as to prevent falling off of the electrical contacts and reduce the length of the conductive elements.

Abstract: A fabrication method of a semiconductor package structure includes: patterning a metal plate having first and second surfaces; forming a dielectric layer on the metal plate; forming a metal layer on the first surface and the dielectric layer; forming metal pads on the second surface, the metal layer having a die pad and traces each having a bond pad; mounting a semiconductor chip on the die pad, followed by connecting electrically the semiconductor chip to the bond pads through bonding wires; forming an encapsulant to cover the semiconductor chip and the metal layer; removing portions of the metal plate not covered by the metal pads so as to form metal pillars; and performing a singulation process. The fabrication method is characterized by disposing traces with bond pads close to the die pad to shorten the bonding wires and forming metal pillars protruding from the dielectric layer to avoid solder bridging.
