Abstract:
The invention discloses a device comprising a stack of at least two layers, which may comprise active or passive discrete components, TSOP and/or ball grid array packages, flip chip or wire bonded bare die or the like, which layers are stacked and . interconnected to define an integral module. A first and second layer comprise an electrically conductive trace with one or more electronic components in electrical connection therewith. The electrically conductive traces terminate at a lateral surface of each of the layers to define an access lead. An interposer structure is disposed between the layers and provides an interposer lateral surface upon which a conductive layer interconnect trace is defined to create an electrical connection between predetermined access leads on each of the layers.
Abstract:
A method of producing a chip embedded substrate is disclosed. This method comprises a first step of mounting a semiconductor chip on a first substrate on which a first wiring is formed; and a second step of joining the first substrate with a second substrate on which a second wiring is formed. In the second step, the semiconductor chip is encapsulated between the first substrate and the second substrate and electrical connection is made between the first wiring and the second wiring so as to form multilayered wirings connected to the semiconductor chip.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor package may include: forming a first board; forming second boards, in each of which at least one cavity is formed; attaching the second boards to both sides of the first board, such that the second boards are electrically connected with the first board; and connecting at least one component with the first board by a flip chip method by embedding the component in the cavity. The method can prevent damage to the semiconductor chips and lower manufacturing costs, while the connection material may also mitigate stresses, to prevent cracking in the boards and semiconductor chips, while preventing defects such as bending and warpage. Defects caused by temperature changes may also be avoided. Furthermore, it is not necessary to use an underfill in the portions where the semiconductor chips are connected with the printed circuit board, which allows for easier reworking and lower costs.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device with a first (101) and a second (111) semiconductor chip assembled on an insulating flexible interposer (120). The interposer, preferably about 25 to 50 μm thick, has conductive traces (121), a central planar rectangular area and on each side of the rectangle a wing bent at an angle from the central plane. The central area has metal studs (122, 123) on the top and the bottom surface, which match the terminals of the chips, further conductive vias of a pitch center-to-center about 50 μm or less. The side wings have contact pads (130) with metallic connectors (131) on the bottom surface; the connectors may be solder balls, metal studs, or anisotropic conductive films. The second chip is adhesively attached to a substrate, whereby the interposer faces away from the substrate. The interposer side wings have a convex bending (150) downwardly along the second chip and a concave bending (151) over the substrate; the side wing connectors are attached to the matching substrate sites.

A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board, which includes: forming at least one interlayer connector on a first carrier, stacking at least one insulation layer on the first carrier such that the interlayer connector is exposed, removing the first carrier, and forming at least one circuit pattern on the insulation layer such that the circuit pattern is electrically coupled with the interlayer connector, can be used to increase the density of circuit patterns, as the method can provide electrical connection between circuit patterns and vias without using lands.

Abstract:
An apparatus for connecting a multi-conductor cable of a first device to a pin grid array connector of a second device, wherein said apparatus comprises a first printed circuit board (PCB) for terminating the conductors of the cable, which are connected to a first PCB surface mounted connector mounted on the first PCB. The first PCB surface mounted connector is mated with a second PCB surface mounted connector mounted on a second PCB, on which a PCB surface mounted socket grid array is also mounted for mating to the pin grid array connector of the second device. This apparatus allows the same (i.e., standardized) multi-conductor cable with the same first PCB and the same first PCB surface mounted connector to be used regardless of what style connector is used by the second device.

Abstract:
A solder ball pin substantially includes a pillar pin body and an insulator whose opposite end facing a solder ball is formed by a soldering end. On the soldering end, a solderable metal layer is disposed concentrically with the insulator. A small opening whose dimension fits to a diameter of the pin body is defined on a center of the solderable metal layer. A reball end of the pin body penetrates the small opening on the solderable metal layer for fixing to the insulator body. The shape of the pin body could be alternatively formed by a terrace or shaped like a light beam without limitation of apertures with any varied diameters, which results in a flexible structure and the enhanced productivity. The solderable metal layer on the insulator allows the insulator to be solderable; a connection between the pin body and the insulator with the solderable metal layer becomes more compact, and the reliability of the soldering is promoted. Except the soldering part of the pin body, other non-soldered part of the pin body is wrapped in the insulator, which prevents the pin body from the oxidization and an inferior quality. Moreover, the assemblage of the insulator and the pin body does not readily deviate in view of any external force even after the soldering is processed. Thus, the assemblage is precise and controllable.
