Abstract

A semiconductor chip package and a method of fabricating a semiconductor chip package provide a reduced chip size package. The semiconductor chip package includes a semiconductor chip; a plurality of pads disposed on an upper surface of the semiconductor chip; a thermosetting resin formed on the upper surface of the semiconductor chip such that through-holes in the thermosetting resin expose the pads; a multi-layer wiring pattern formed on the thermosetting resin; a connecting unit electrically connecting the multi-layer wiring pattern with the pads; a solder resist on the thermosetting resin, the multi-layer wiring pattern and the connecting unit, such that at least one through-hole in the solder resist exposes a portion of the multi-layer wiring pattern; and a solder ball mounted on the through-hole of the solder resist in contact with the exposed portion of the metal pattern.

Claims (14)

1. A semiconductor chip package, comprising:

a semiconductor chip having an upper, a bottom, and side surfaces;

a plurality of pads respectively disposed on portions of the upper surface of the semiconductor chip;

a thermosetting resin formed on the upper surface of the semiconductor chip, the thermosetting resin defining through-holes to expose the pads;

a multi-layer wiring pattern formed on the thermosetting resin;

a conductive pattern electrically connecting the multi-layer wiring pattern with the pads;

a solder resist on and around the thermosetting resin and the multi-layer wiring pattern, the solder resist defining at least one through-hole to expose a portion of the multi-layer wiring pattern; and

a solder ball mounted on the through-hole of the solder resist in contact with the exposed portion of the multi-layer wiring pattern.

2. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 1 , wherein the multi-layer wiring pattern has a stacked Al/Ni/Cu structure.

3. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 1 , wherein an upper surface of the multi-layer wiring pattern is connected to the pads.

4. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 1 , wherein the pads are disposed at an upper center portion of the semiconductor chip.

5. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 1 , wherein the pads are disposed at an edge portion of the semiconductor chip.

6. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 1 , further comprising a polymer resin covering the side and bottom surfaces of the semiconductor chip, and a heat sink disposed on a lower surface of the polymer resin.

7. The semiconductor chip package according to claim 6 , wherein the heat sink includes metal film adhered to the lower surface of the polymer resin.
