Abstract

A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system includes: forming a lead having a lead bottom body, a lead top body, and a lead top conductive layer directly on the lead top body, the lead top conductive layer having a top protrusion and a top non-vertical portion, the lead bottom body having a horizontally contiguous structure; connecting an integrated circuit to the top protrusion; and forming an encapsulation covering the integrated circuit and exposing a top non-vertical upper side of the top non-vertical portion.

Claims (42)

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

forming a lead having:

a lead bottom body, the lead bottom body having a horizontally contiguous structure,

a lead top body, and

a lead top conductive layer directly on the lead top body, the lead top conductive layer having a top protrusion, a top non-vertical portion, a top non-horizontal portion, and a top connection portion, the top connection portion connected to the top protrusion and the top non-horizontal portion, the top connection portion having a curve surface;

connecting an integrated circuit to the top protrusion; and

forming an encapsulation covering the integrated circuit and exposing a top non-vertical upper side of the top non-vertical portion.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the lead includes forming the lead having the top protrusion with a protrusion interior portion and a protrusion exterior portion directly on the lead bottom body, the protrusion interior portion having a horizontal length greater than a horizontal length of the protrusion exterior portion.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the lead includes forming the lead having a single integral structure with the top protrusion, the top non-horizontal portion, the top connection portion, and the top non-vertical portion.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the encapsulation includes forming the encapsulation having an encapsulation bottom side with the lead bottom body protruding from the encapsulation bottom side.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the encapsulation includes forming the encapsulation having a first encapsulation bottom side and a second encapsulation bottom side below thereof, the second encapsulation bottom side coplanar with a bottom extent of the lead bottom body.

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

forming a lead having:

a lead bottom body, the lead bottom body having a horizontally contiguous structure,

a lead top body, and

a lead top conductive layer directly on the lead top body, the lead top conductive layer having a top protrusion, a top non-vertical portion, a top non-horizontal portion, and a top connection portion, the top connection portion connected to the top protrusion and the top non-horizontal portion, the top connection portion having a curve surface;

connecting an integrated circuit to the top protrusion; and

forming an encapsulation covering the integrated circuit and exposing a top non-vertical upper side of the top non-vertical portion, the encapsulation coplanar with the top non-vertical upper side.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising forming an interior lead having an interior lead top conductive layer coplanar with the top protrusion.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the encapsulation includes forming the encapsulation having an encapsulation bottom side below the top protrusion.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein:

forming the lead includes forming leads; and

forming the encapsulation includes forming the encapsulation exposing the top non-vertical upper side of each of the leads.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising mounting a stack integrated circuit over the integrated circuit.

11. An integrated circuit packaging system comprising:

a lead having:

a lead bottom body, the lead bottom body having a horizontally contiguous structure,

a lead top body, and

a lead top conductive layer directly on the lead top body, the lead top conductive layer having a top protrusion, a top non-vertical portion, a top non-horizontal portion, and a top connection portion, the top connection portion connected to the top protrusion and the top non-horizontal portion, the top connection portion having a curve surface;

integrated circuit connected to the top protrusion; and

an encapsulation covering the integrated circuit and exposing a top non-vertical upper side of the top non-vertical portion.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the lead includes the top protrusion with a protrusion interior portion and a protrusion exterior portion directly on the lead bottom body, the protrusion interior portion having a horizontal length greater than a horizontal length of the protrusion exterior portion.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the lead includes a single integral structure with the top protrusion, the top non-horizontal portion, the top connection portion, and the top non-vertical portion.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the encapsulation includes an encapsulation bottom side with the lead bottom body protruding from the encapsulation bottom side.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the encapsulation includes a first encapsulation bottom side and a second encapsulation bottom side below thereof, the second encapsulation bottom side coplanar with a bottom extent of the lead bottom body.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the encapsulation is coplanar with the top non-vertical upper side.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 further comprising an interior lead having an interior lead top conductive layer coplanar with the top protrusion.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the encapsulation includes an encapsulation bottom side below the top protrusion.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein:

the lead includes leads; and

the encapsulation exposes the top non-vertical upper side of each of the leads.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 further comprising a stack integrated circuit over the integrated circuit.
