Abstract: A shielding assembly is configured to provide electromagnetic shielding and environmental protection to one or more electronic components coupled to a substrate. The shielding assembly includes a non-conductive mold compound layer, such as a dielectric epoxy. The mold compound layer is applied to a top surface of the substrate, thereby covering the electronic components and providing protection against environmentally induced conditions such as corrosion, humidity, and mechanical stress. The shielding assembly also includes a conductive layer applied to a top surface of the mold compound layer. The conductive layer is coupled to a ground plane in the substrate, thereby enabling the electromagnetic shielding function. The conductive layer is coupled to the ground plane via one or more metallized contacts that are coupled to the substrate and extend through the mold compound layer.

Abstract: A method for forming a stud bumped semiconductor die is disclosed. The method includes forming a ball at the tip of a coated wire passing through a hole in a capillary, where the coated wire has a core and an oxidation-resistant coating. The formed ball is pressed to the conductive region on the semiconductor die. The coated wire is cut, thereby leaving a conductive stud bump on the conductive region, where the conductive stud bump includes an inner conductive portion and an outer oxidation-resistant layer.

Abstract: A structure and method of manufacture for an improved multi-chip semiconductor package that reduces package resistance to a negligible level, and offers superior thermal performance. Housing of multiple dies is facilitated by providing electrically isolated lead frames that are separated from a common base carrier by a non-conductive layer of laminating material. A silicon die is attached inside a cavity formed in each lead frame. Direct connection of the active surface of the silicon die to the printed circuit board is then made by an array of solder bumps that is distributed across the surface of each die as well as the edges of the lead frame adjacent to each die.

Abstract: A packaged semiconductor device (a wafer-level chip scale package) containing a conductive adhesive material as an electrical interconnect route between the semiconductor die and a patterned conductive substrate is described. The patterned conductive substrate acts not only as a substrate, but also as a redistribution layer that converts the dense pad layout of the die to a larger array configuration of the solder balls in the circuit board. Using the invention allows the formation of a lower priced chip scale package that also overcomes the restriction of the die size used in die-sized chip packages and the input-output pattern that can be required by the printed circuit board. Thus, the invention can provide a familiar pitch (i.e., interface) to the printed circuit board for any small die.
