Package structure with ESD and EMI preventing functions
View Patent ↗A package structure with ESD (electrostatic discharge) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) preventing functions includes: a carrier having first and second ground structures electrically insulated from one another; a semiconductor component disposed on one surface of the carrier and electrically connected to the first ground structure; and a lid member disposed to cover the carrier and the semiconductor component and electrically connected to the second ground structure. The semiconductor component and the lid member are electrically connected with the first ground structure and the second ground structure, respectively, such that electrostatic charges and electromagnetic waves can be conducted away individually without damaging the semiconductor component, thereby improving yield and reducing the risk of short circuits.

at least a semiconductor component disposed on the first surface of the carrier and electrically connected to the carrier and the first ground structure;
an encapsulant formed on the first surface of the carrier for encapsulating the semiconductor component; and
a lid member disposed on the encapsulant for covering the semiconductor component and electrically connected to the second ground structure.
2. The package structure of claim 1 , wherein the second ground structure is disposed around periphery or at corners of the carrier.
3. The package structure of claim 2 , wherein a plurality of conductive members are disposed on the second surface of the carrier so as to electrically connect to the first ground structure and the second ground structure, respectively.
4. The package structure of claim 2 , wherein the second ground structure comprises conductive through holes penetrating the first and second surfaces of the carrier, and the lid member is disposed on terminals of the conductive through holes on the first surface of the carrier.
5. The package structure of claim 1 , wherein the carrier further has an internal circuit.
6. The package structure of claim 5 , wherein the at least a semiconductor component is electrically connected to the internal circuit and the first ground structure of the carrier through wire bonding or in a flip-chip manner.
7. The package structure of claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor component is an active component, a passive component or a combination thereof.
8. The package structure of claim 7 , wherein the passive component is a capacitor, a resistor or an inductor.
9. The package structure of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of dummy pads are disposed on the second surface of the carrier, and the second ground structure is electrically connected to the dummy pads.
10. The package structure of claim 9 , wherein the dummy pads are disposed at positions other than periphery or corners of the carrier.
11. The package structure of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant encapsulates the lid member.
