Semiconductor multi-package module having inverted land grid array (LGA) package stacked over ball grid array (BGA) package
View Patent ↗A semiconductor multi-package module has a second package inverted and stacked over a first package, each of the packages having a die attached to a substrate, in which the second package substrate and the first package substrate are interconnected by wire bonding, and in which the first package includes a ball grid array package. Also, a method for making a semiconductor multi-package module, by providing a lower molded ball grid array package including a lower substrate and a die, affixing an upper molded package including an upper substrate in inverted orientation onto the upper surface of the lower package, and forming z-interconnects between the upper and lower substrates.
1. A multipackage module having a second package inverted and stacked over a first package, each said package comprising a die attached to a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a dielectric layer and a pattern metal layer, the second package substrate and the first package substrate being interconnected by wire bonding, wherein the first package comprises a ball grid array package.
2. The multipackage module of claim 1 wherein at least one said package has wire bond interconnect of the die with the substrate, and the said wire bonded package is at least partly encapsulated.
3. The multipackage module of claim 1 wherein the inverted second package has wire bond interconnect of the die with the substrate.
4. The multipackage module of claim 3 wherein the inverted second package is at least partially encapsulated.
5. The multipackage module of claim 1 wherein the inverted second package is a land grid array package.
6. The multipackage module of claim 1 wherein the second package substrate is a bump chip carrier type package substrate.
7. The multipackage module of claim 1 , further comprising a heat spreader having a generally planar upper surface exposed at the top of the module.
8. The multipackage module of claim 7 wherein a planar part of the heat spreader is supported by support members over the first package substrate.
9. The multipackage module of claim 7 wherein a planar part of the heat spreader is affixed onto an upward facing surface of the inverted second package.
10. The multipackage module of claim 1 , further comprising an electromagnetic shield for at least one of the packages.
11. The multipackage module of claim 1 , further comprising an electromagnetic shield for the first package.
12. The multipackage module of claim 11 wherein the inverted second package is affixed onto an upper surface of the electromagnetic shield.
