Abstract

A semiconductor package and method of forming the package, including a substrate having an opening formed therein. Contact pads are formed about a periphery of the opening on a first side of the substrate and a second opposing side of the substrate. A flip chip die is mounted to the substrate, having an active side mounted on a first side of the substrate and in electrical communication with at least some of the contact pads formed on the first side of the substrate. At least one wire bond die is mounted through the opening, with a non-active side mounted on the active side of the flip chip die. The wire bond die is in electrical communication with at least some of the plurality of contact pads formed on the second opposing side of the substrate.

Claims (19)

1. A semiconductor package comprising:

a substrate, including an opening formed therein;

a plurality of contact pads formed about a periphery of the opening on a first side of the substrate and a second opposing side of the substrate;

a flip chip die, having an active side mounted on the first side of said substrate in electrical communication with at least some of the contact pads formed on the first side of the substrate;

a plurality of wire bond die, each having a perimeter size of less than the dimension of the opening, and having a non-active side attached to the active side of the flip chip die, wherein the plurality of wire bond die in electrical communication with at least some of the plurality of contact pads formed on the second opposed side of the substrate;

first wires electrically connecting the plurality of wire bond die to respective ones of the contact pads on the second side of the substrate; and

second wires electrically connecting the plurality of wire bond die directly to the flip chip die.

2. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the substrate further includes a ball grid array formed on the second opposed side of the substrate for external electrical connection.

3. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flip chip die is mounted to the first side of the substrate using a plurality of solder bumps.

4. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 1 , further including a heat sink attached to an uppermost surface of the flip chip die, wherein the heat sink is in direct contact with said uppermost surface of the flip chip die.

5. A semiconductor package comprising:

a substrate, including an opening formed therein;

a plurality of contact pads formed about a periphery of the opening on a first side of the substrate and a second opposing side of the substrate;

a flip chip die, having an active side mounted on a first side of said substrate in electrical communication with at least some of the contact pads formed on the first side of the substrate; and

a plurality of wire bond die, having a side-by-side mounting dimension of less than the dimension of the opening, the plurality of wire bond die mounted through the opening in a side-by-side formation, and having each non-active side mounted on the active side of the flip chip die, each of the plurality of wire bond die in electrical communication with at least some of the plurality of contact pads formed on the second side of the substrate.

6. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the substrate further includes a ball grid array formed on the second side of the substrate for external electrical communication.

7. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the flip chip die is mounted to the first side of the substrate using a plurality of solder bumps.

8. The semiconductor package as claimed in claim 5 , wherein each of the plurality of wire bond die is electrically coupled to the second side of the substrate with a plurality of wires via a wire bonding process.

9. The semiconductor die package as claimed in claim 5 , further including a heat sink formed on an uppermost surface of the flip chip die.
