Abstract

A stacked flip-chip package comprises a substrate having an opening, a back-to-face chip module, and an encapsulant. The back-to-face chip module is attached to the substrate and encapsulated by the encapsulant. The back-to-face chip module includes a first chip and a second chip. The first chip has a first active surface and a first back surface. Redistributed traces are formed on the first back surface. The second chip is flip-chip mounted on the first back surface of the first chip and electrically connected to the redistributed traces. A plurality of bumps connect the redistributed traces to the top surface of the substrate. Thus the second chip can be accommodated inside the opening and the redistributed traces are electrically connected to the second chip and the substrate so as to achieve fine pitch flip-chip mounting and improve the electrical performance and heat dissipation efficiency for the back-to-face chip module.

Claims (9)

1. A stacked flip-chip package comprising:

a substrate having a top surface, a bottom surface and an opening;

a back-to-face chip module including a first chip and a second chip, wherein the first chip has a first active surface, a first back surface, and a plurality of first bonding pads, the second chip has a second active surface, a second back surface, and a plurality of second bonding pads, a plurality of redistributed traces are formed on the first back surface of the first chip and have a plurality of first bumping pads and a plurality of second bumping pads, the first bumping pads are formed at the periphery of the first back surface of the first chip in fan-out arrangement, the second bumping pads are formed on the center of the first back surface of the first chip in fan-in arrangement, the second chip is flip-chip mounted on the first back surface of the first chip so that the second bonding pads are electrically connected to the second bumping pads, the back-to-face chi module is attached to the top surface of the substrate in a manner that the first bumping pads are electrically connected to the top surface of the substrate and the second chip is accommodated inside the opening; and an encapsulant formed on the top surface of the substrate to encapsulate the back-to-face chip module.

2. The package in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the second back surface is exposed out of the bottom surface of the substrate.

3. The package in accordance with claim 2 , further comprising a heat sink attached to the second back surface of the second chip.

4. The package in accordance with claim 3 , wherein the heat sink is connected to the bottom surface of the substrate to cover the opening.

5. The package in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of solder balls placed on the bottom surface of the substrate.

6. The package in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising an under-filling material between the first back surface of the first chip and the second active surface of the second chip.

7. The package in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of bonding wires connecting the first bonding pads to the substrate.
