Abstract

A package structure has a first die, a second die, the third die, a molding compound, a first redistribution layer, an antenna and conductive elements. The first die, the second die and the third die are molded in a molding compound. The first redistribution layer is disposed on the molding compound and is electrically connected to the first die, the second die and the third die. The antenna is located on the molding compound and electrically connected to the first die, the second die and the third die, wherein a distance of an electrical connection path between the first die and the antenna is smaller than or equal to a distance of an electrical connection path between the second die and the antenna and a distance of an electrical connection path between the third die and the antenna. The conductive elements are connected to the first redistribution layer, wherein the first redistribution layer is located between the conductive elements and the molding compound.

Claims (15)

1. A package structure, comprising

a first die, a second die and a third die, molded in a molding compound;

a first redistribution layer, disposed on the molding compound and electrically connected to the first die, the second die and the third die;

an antenna, located on the molding compound and electrically connected to the first die, the second die and the third die, wherein a distance of an electrical connection path between the first die and the antenna is smaller than or equal to a distance of an electrical connection path between the second die and the antenna and a distance of an electrical connection path between the third die and the antenna, and wherein the antenna comprises a first metallic portion and a second metallic portion, the second metallic portion are mechanically separated from the first metallic portion, and the first metallic portion and the second metallic portion work together in a manner of electrical coupling; and

conductive elements, connected to the first redistribution layer, wherein the first redistribution layer is located between the conductive elements and the molding compound.

2. The package structure as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a fourth die disposed on the molding compound and electrically connected to the first redistribution layer, wherein the first redistribution layer is located between the fourth die and the molding compound.

3. The package structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first die and the second die are arranged side-by-side, and the third die is stacked over the first die and the second die.

4. The package structure as claimed in claim 3 , further comprises:

first through interlayer vias, disposed on the first die and the second die and encapsulated in the molding compound; and

contacting posts, disposed on the third die and encapsulated in the molding compound, wherein the first redistribution layer is electrically connected the first die and the second die through the first through interlayer vias and is electrically connected the third die through the contacting posts.

5. The package structure as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the antenna comprises a first metallic portion and a second metallic portion, the first metallic portion is located at a side of the molding compound opposite to the first redistribution layer, the second metallic portion is located in the first redistribution layer, and the molding compound is located between the first metallic portion and the second metallic portion of the antenna, and the antenna is arranged aside the first, second and third dies.

6. The package structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the antenna comprises an antenna array, and the package structure further comprising at least one second through interlayer via encapsulated in the molding compound, wherein the at least one second through interlayer via is electrically connected to the first redistribution layer and the antenna.

7. The package structure as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a second redistribution layer located between the molding compound and the antenna, wherein the second redistribution layer is electrically connected to the first redistribution layer through the at least one second through interlayer via, and the second redistribution layer is electrically connected to the first die, the second die and the third die.

8. The package structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first die, the second die and the third die are arranged side-by-side.

9. The package structure as claimed in claim 8 , further comprises contacting posts disposed on the first die, the second die and third die, wherein the contacting posts are encapsulated in the molding compound, and the first die, the second die and the third die are electrically connected to the first redistribution layer through the contacting posts.
