Abstract

A shielded package includes a shield assembly having a shield fence, a shield lid, and a shield lid adhesive electrically coupling the shield lid to the shield fence. The shield fence includes a porous sidewall through which molding compound passes during molding of the shielded package. Further, the shield fence includes a central aperture through which an electronic component is die attached and wire bonded.

Claims (28)

1. A structure comprising:

a substrate comprising a first surface;

a land and a plurality of traces on the first surface;

an electronic component coupled to the first surface;

an encapsulant enclosing the first surface and the electronic component; and

a shield lid electrically coupled to the land through an electrically conductive shield fence and mechanically coupled via the encapsulant through the shield fence, the shield lid comprising a cured electrically conductive ink in direct contact with a mounting ring of the shield fence and a first surface of the encapsulant, and wherein the electronic component comprises a plurality of bond pads, the structure further comprising bumps enclosed by an underfill material coupling the bond pads to the traces on the first surface of the substrate.

2. The structure of claim 1 wherein the shield lid is electrically coupled to the land by an electrically conductive material extending through the encapsulant.

3. The structure of claim 2 wherein the electrically conductive material comprises copper.

4. The structure of claim 2 wherein the electrically conductive material comprises solder.

5. The structure of claim 4 wherein the solder is on the land.

6. The structure of claim 5 wherein the electrically conductive material further comprises copper extending between the solder and the shield lid.

7. The structure of claim 2 wherein the electrically conductive material comprises posts.

8. The structure of claim 1 wherein the substrate further comprises a second surface, a trace on the second surface of the substrate being coupled to the land.

9. The structure of claim 1 further comprising a ground ring comprising the land.

10. A structure comprising:

a substrate comprising a first surface;

a land and a plurality of traces on the first surface;

an electronic component coupled to the first surface;

an encapsulant enclosing the first surface and the electronic component; and

a cured electrically conductive coating formed on and in direct contact with a first surface of the encapsulant and coupled to the land through an electrically conductive shield fence and mechanically coupled via the encapsulant through the shield fence, the electrically conductive coating being in direct contact with a mounting ring of the shield fence, and wherein the electronic component comprises a plurality of bond pads, the structure further comprising bumps enclosed by an underfill material coupling the bond pads to the traces on the first surface of the substrate.

11. A structure comprising:

a substrate comprising a first surface;

a land and a plurality of traces on the first surface;

an electronic component coupled to the first surface;

an encapsulant enclosing the first surface and the electronic component; and

a cured electrically conductive ink in direct contact with a mounting ring of a shield fence comprising an electrically conductive material, the electrically conductive ink being electrically coupled to the land through the shield fence and mechanically coupled via the encapsulant by the electrically conductive material, the electrically conductive ink in direct contact with a first surface of the encapsulant, and wherein the electronic component comprises a plurality of bond pads, the structure further comprising bumps enclosed by an underfill material coupling the bond pads to the traces on the first surface of the substrate.

12. The structure of claim 11 wherein the electronic component comprises a semiconductor device.

13. The structure of claim 11 wherein the electronic component comprises a passive device.
