  • Patent number: 6818980
    Abstract: An integrated circuit package includes a substrate having conductive traces therein. A first semiconductor die is mounted in a die-down configuration to a first surface of the substrate. A second semiconductor die is mounted to a backside of the first semiconductor die. A plurality of connectors electrically connect the first semiconductor die to portions of the conductive traces of the substrate and a plurality of wire bonds connect the second semiconductor die to other portions of the conductive traces of the substrate. An encapsulant encapsulates the wire bonds and covers at least a portion of the first surface of the substrate and the second semiconductor die. A ball grid array is disposed on a second surface of the substrate, bumps of the ball grid array being connected with the conductive traces.

  • Patent number: 5877551
    Abstract: A semiconductor package is provided that has a rigid metal substrate and a dielectric layer covering a first portion of the rigid metal substrate, with a second portion of the rigid metal substrate being substantially free of the dielectric layer. A semiconductor device is electrically bonded to the second portion of the rigid metal substrate and metal circuit traces defining electrical paths are formed on the dielectric layer, at least one of which contacts the rigid metal substrate through at least one via in the dielectric layer. Additionally, a method is provided for grounding a semiconductor device and at least one circuit trace on a rigid metal substrate substantially covered by a dielectric layer, which includes creating at least one via in the dielectric layer using a laser and creating circuit traces on the dielectric layer, at least one of which contacts the rigid metal substrate through at least one of the vias.
