Abstract

A low-noise flip-chip package, comprising: a carrier substrate having first and second opposing main faces; and a flip-chip substrate connected in a face-down manner onto the first main face of the carrier substrate via a connection array, wherein: the flip-chip substrate comprises at least first and second circuitry portions spaced apart from one another; the flip-chip substrate comprises a substrate-contact boundary located between the first and second circuitry portions; and each of the first circuitry portion, the second circuitry portion and the substrate-contact boundary has its own separate signal-reference connection extending via a respective connection of the connection array through the carrier substrate to a respective electrical contact at the second main face of the carrier substrate for connection to a common signal-reference element in an external circuit.

Claims (15)

1. A flip chip package system comprising:

a first substrate;

a second substrate connected to a first surface of the first substrate; and

a flip chip including a first circuitry portion, a second circuitry portion, and a substrate contact, and connected to the second substrate;

wherein the first circuitry portion is connected to the first surface through the second substrate;

wherein the second circuitry portion is connected to the first surface through the second substrate;

wherein the substrate contact is located between the first circuitry portion and the second circuitry portion, and is connected to a common ground terminal through the first substrate and the second substrate; and

wherein the common ground terminal is located on a second surface of the first substrate.

2. The flip chip package system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the common ground terminal is electrically connected to a ground power supply.

3. The flip chip package system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the common ground terminal is electrically connected to a ball grid array via the first surface of the first substrate.

4. The flip chip package system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first and second circuitry portions are connected respectively to the common ground terminal through a ball grid array via the first surface of the first substrate.

5. The flip chip package system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of common ground terminals.

6. The flip chip package system as claimed in claim 5 ,

wherein the first and second circuitry portions are spaced apart from one another in a first direction; and

wherein the common ground terminals are spaced apart from one another in the first direction.
