Abstract

An integrated circuit package system includes an in-line strip, attaching an integrated circuit die over the in-line strip, and applying a molding material with a molded segment having a molded strip protrusion formed therefrom over the in-line strip.

Claims (35)

1. A method for manufacturing an integrated circuit package system comprising:

providing an in-line strip;

attaching an integrated circuit die over the in-line strip; and

applying a molding material to form a molded strip over the in-line strip, wherein the molded strip includes a molded segment over the integrated circuit die, a molded strip bridge between the molded segment, and a molded strip protrusion surrounding the molded segment along an edge of the in-line strip.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein applying the molding material includes forming a guide rail on only two sides of the molded segment or surrounding the molded segment.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein applying the molding material includes forming a segmented protrusion.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising marking a code on the molded strip protrusion.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein applying the molding material includes forming the molded strip protrusion to cooperate with a slot magazine or a stack magazine.

6. A method for manufacturing an integrated circuit package system comprising:

providing an in-line strip having an individualized unit;

mounting an integrated circuit die over the individualized unit; and

forming a molded strip over the in-line strip, further comprising:

forming a molded segment over the integrated circuit die;

forming a molded strip bridge between the molded segment; and

forming a molded strip protrusion surrounding the molded segment along an edge of the in-line strip, wherein the molded strip protrusion has a thickness thinner than or equal to the molded segment, and the width of the molded strip is less than or equal to the in-line strip.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the molded strip includes forming a guide rail for process handling.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the molded strip includes forming a segmented protrusion with registration features of the in-line strip substantially exposed.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising marking a code on the molded strip protrusion for a strip test.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the molded strip includes forming the molded strip protrusion to cooperate with a slot spacer of a slot magazine or a stack magazine.

11. An integrated circuit package system comprising:

an in-line strip;

an integrated circuit die over the in-line strip; and

a molded strip over the in-line strip consisting of a molded segment over the integrated circuit die, a molded strip bridge between the molded segment, and a molded strip protrusion surrounding the molded segment along an edge of the in-line strip.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the molded strip includes a guide rail on only two sides of the molded segment or surrounding the molded segment.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the molded strip includes a segmented protrusion.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the molded strip protrusion includes a code.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the molded strip includes the molded strip protrusion formed to cooperate with a slot magazine or a stack magazine.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein:

the in-line strip is the in-line strip having an individualized unit;

the integrated circuit die is the integrated circuit die over the individualized unit; and

the molded segment has a thickness greater than or equal to the molded strip protrusion.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the molded strip includes a guide rail for process handling.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the molded strip includes a segmented protrusion with registration features of the in-line strip substantially exposed.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the molded strip protrusion includes a code for strip a test.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the molded strip includes the molded strip protrusion formed to cooperate with a slot spacer of a slot magazine or a stack magazine.
