Patent number: 8384216Abstract: A manufacturing method of a package structure is provided. A metal substrate is provided. The metal substrate has a first surface where a first seed layer is formed. A patterned insulating layer is formed on the first seed layer and exposes a portion of the first seed layer. A patterned circuit layer is formed on the exposed portion of the first seed layer and covers a portion of the patterned insulating layer. A chip-bonding process is performed to electrically connect a chip to the patterned circuit layer. An encapsulant encapsulating the chip and the patterned circuit layer and covering a portion of the pattered insulating layer is formed. The metal substrate and the first seed layer are removed to expose a bottom surface of the patterned insulating layer and a lower surface of the patterned circuit layer. Solder balls are formed on the lower surface of the patterned circuit layer.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2011Date of Patent: February 26, 2013Assignee: Subtron Technology Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shih-Hao Sun

Patent number: 8350159Abstract: A base insulating layer is formed on a suspension body, and write wiring traces and read wiring traces are formed on the base insulating layer. The write wiring trace and the read wiring traces are formed on a body region of the base insulating layer, and the write wiring trace is formed on an auxiliary region of the base insulating layer. The base insulating layer is bent along a bend portion. This causes the write wiring trace to be positioned above the write wiring trace.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2010Date of Patent: January 8, 2013Assignee: Nitto Denko CorporationInventors: Tetsuya Oosawa, Naoyuki Tanaka, Mitsuru Honjo
