Abstract

A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system includes: providing a package paddle; forming a pad extension having a spacing to the package paddle; forming a lead adjacent the pad extension, the pad extension between the package paddle and the lead; forming a conductive layer directly on and between the package paddle and the pad extension; and connecting an integrated circuit to the pad extension and the lead, the integrated circuit over the package paddle.

Claims (40)

1. A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system comprising:

providing a package paddle;

forming a pad extension structurally isolated from the package paddle;

forming a lead adjacent the pad extension, the pad extension between the package paddle and the lead;

forming a conductive layer directly on and between the package paddle and the pad extension; and

connecting an integrated circuit to the pad extension and the lead, the integrated circuit over the package paddle.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming the conductive layer electrically connected to the package paddle and the pad extension for providing the same electrical level.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming the conductive layer having a material resistant to solder flow.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising forming a pad internal layer on the conductive layer for providing an electrical contact.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming the conductive layer having a contiguous shape of a ring surrounding the package paddle.

6. A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system comprising:

providing a package paddle;

forming a pad extension structurally isolated from the package paddle;

forming a lead adjacent the pad extension, the pad extension between the package paddle and the lead;

forming a conductive layer directly on and between the package paddle and the pad extension;

connecting an integrated circuit to the pad extension and the lead, the integrated circuit over the package paddle; and

forming an encapsulation over the conductive layer covering the integrated circuit.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming the conductive layer electrically connected to the package paddle and the pad extension for providing the same ground level.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming the conductive layer having a material un-etched and resistant to solder flow.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising:

forming a pad internal layer on the conductive layer; and

connecting a pad-device connector to the pad internal layer and the integrated circuit.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the conductive layer includes forming a non-contiguous conductive layer.

11. An integrated circuit packaging system comprising:

a package paddle;

a pad extension structurally isolated from the package paddle;

a lead adjacent the pad extension, the pad extension between the package paddle and the lead;

a conductive layer directly on and between the package paddle and the pad extension; and

an integrated circuit connected to the pad extension and the lead, the integrated circuit over the package paddle.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the conductive layer is electrically connected to the package paddle and the pad extension for providing the same electrical level.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the conductive layer has a material resistant to solder.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising a pad internal layer on the conductive layer for providing an electrical contact.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the conductive layer has a contiguous shape of a ring surrounding the package paddle.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising an encapsulation over the conductive layer covering the integrated circuit.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the conductive layer is electrically connected to the package paddle and the pad extension for providing the same ground level.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the conductive layer has a material un-etched and resistant to solder.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 further comprising:

a pad internal layer on the conductive layer; and

a pad-device connector connected to the pad internal layer and the integrated circuit.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the conductive layer is a non-contiguous conductive layer.
