  • Patent number: 7230331
    Abstract: A chip package structure and a process for fabricating the same is disclosed. The chip package structure mainly comprises a carrier, a chip and an encapsulating material layer. To fabricate the chip package, a carrier and a plurality of chips are provided. Each chip has at least an active surface with a plurality of bumps thereon. The chips and the carrier are electrically connected. An encapsulating material layer that fills the bonding gap between the chips and the carriers and covers the chips and carrier is formed. The encapsulating material layer between the chips and the carrier has a first thickness and the encapsulating material layer over the chips has a second thickness. The second thickness has a value between half to twice the first thickness.

  • Patent number: 7061103
    Abstract: A chip package structure is disclosed. The chip package structure essentially comprises a carrier, one or more chips, a heat sink and an encapsulating material layer. At least one of the chips is flip-chip bonded and electrically connected to the carrier or another chip. There is a flip-chip bonding gap between the chip and the carrier or other chips. A heat sink is positioned on the uppermost chip. The encapsulating material layer fills the flip-chip bonding gap as well as a gap between the uppermost chip and the heat sink. A part of the surface of the heat sink away from the upper-most chip is exposed. Furthermore, the encapsulating material layer is formed in a simultaneous molding process. For example, the chip is separated from the heat sink by a distance between 0.03˜0.2 mm, and the encapsulating material has a thermal conductivity greater than 1.2 W/m.K.
