Abstract

A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system includes: providing a base substrate; attaching a component over the base substrate; attaching a component interconnect to the base substrate and a perimeter of the component; mounting a stack device over the component; attaching a base exposed interconnect directly on the component and next to the component interconnect; and forming a base encapsulation over the base substrate, the component, and the component interconnect, the base exposed interconnect partially exposed from the base encapsulation.

Claims (19)

1. An integrated circuit packaging system comprising:

a base substrate;

a component attached to the base substrate;

a component interconnect attached to the base substrate and a perimeter of the component;

a stack device interconnect attached to the component;

a stack device over the component, the stack device having a stack device active surface including active circuitry and attached to the stack device interconnect;

a base exposed interconnect directly on the component and next to the component interconnect, the base exposed interconnect being a different material than the stack device interconnect;

a base encapsulation over the base substrate, the component, and the component interconnect, the base exposed interconnect partially exposed from the base encapsulation; and

a stack integrated circuit package on the base exposed interconnect, the stack integrated circuit package not in contact with the base encapsulation.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the base exposed interconnect includes the base exposed interconnect adjacent the stack device.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the base exposed interconnect includes the base exposed interconnect along the perimeter of the component.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the base exposed interconnect includes a metal post on the component.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising another of the stack device over the component and adjacent the stack device.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a discrete component over the component.

7. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a base device over the base substrate, the component over the base device.

8. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein:

the base encapsulation includes a cavity, the component partially exposed from the base encapsulation in the cavity; and

the stack device includes the stack device in the cavity and over the component.

9. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a stack external interconnect on the stack device, the stack integrated circuit package electrically connected to the stack device by the stack external interconnect.
