Abstract

An electronic device and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The electronic device includes a substrate, an encapsulant and an electronic component. The encapsulant is disposed over the substrate, and has a first top surface, a second top surface and a first lateral surface extending between the first top surface and the second top surface. A roughness of the first lateral surface is less than or equal to a roughness of the second top surface. The electronic component is disposed over the second top surface of the encapsulant and electrically connected to the substrate.

Claims (33)

1 . An electronic device comprising:

a substrate;

an encapsulant disposed over the substrate, and having a first top surface, a second top surface and a first lateral surface extending between the first top surface and the second top surface, wherein a roughness of the first lateral surface is less than or equal to a roughness of the second top surface; and

an electronic component disposed over the second top surface of the encapsulant and electrically connected to the substrate through a reflowable material, wherein the encapsulant surrounds and contacts the reflowable material, wherein a portion of the reflowable material is disposed over the second top surface of the second portion of the encapsulant.

2 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant includes:

a first portion having the first top surface; and

a second portion having the second top surface, wherein the first portion is continuously extended to the second portion.

3 . The electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising a shielding layer, wherein the second portion of the encapsulant further has a third top surface level-distinct from the second top surface, and the shielding layer disposed over the second top surface.

4 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant includes:

a first portion having the first top surface; and

a second portion having the second top surface and a third top surface level-distinct from the second top surface, wherein the roughness of the second top surface is less than a roughness of the third top surface.

5 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein an encapsulant further has a second lateral surface, and the first lateral surface and the second lateral surface collectively define an accommodating space for accommodating the electronic component.

6 . An electronic device comprising:

a substrate;

an encapsulant disposed over the substrate, and including a first portion and a second portion connected to the first portion;

an electronic component disposed over the second portion; and

a shielding layer disposed on a lateral surface of the second portion, and being distant from the first portion in a cross-sectional view, wherein the second portion defines a recess portion to expose a portion of a reflowable element connecting the substrate and the electronic component.

7 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the second portion is disposed between the shielding layer and the first portion.

8 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the shielding layer extends to a lateral surface of the substrate.

9 . The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the lateral surface of the substrate is substantially aligned with the lateral surface of the second portion.

10 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the shielding layer is disposed on a top surface of the second portion, and is spaced apart from the reflowable element.

11 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic component is a connector that is configured to connect the substrate to an external device.

12 . The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the second portion of the encapsulant defines an opening to expose an electrical contact of the substrate.

13 . The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the second portion of the encapsulant defines a recess portion recessed from the second top surface of the second portion of the encapsulant, wherein the recess portion is communicated with the opening.

14 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein in a cross section, the reflowable material has a substantially hourglass shape.

15 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the shielding layer covers a portion of a second top surface of the second portion of the encapsulant.

16 . An electronic device comprising:

a substrate;

an encapsulant disposed over the substrate, and including a first portion and a second portion connected to the first portion;

an electronic component disposed over the second portion; and

a shielding layer disposed on a lateral surface of the second portion, and being distant from the first portion in a cross-sectional view, wherein a bottom end surface of a first portion of the shielding layer is embedded in the first portion of the encapsulant.

17 . The electronic device of claim 16 , wherein the second portion has a second top surface and a third top surface level-distinct from the second top surface, wherein the shielding layer is further disposed over the second top surface except for the third top surface.

18 . The electronic device of claim 16 , wherein the second portion of the encapsulant defines a recess portion recessed from a second top surface of the second portion of the encapsulant, wherein the recess portion has a bottom surface extending to connect a lateral surface of the second portion of the encapsulant.
