A package that includes an integrated device partially enclosed in a conductive material and embedded in a package substrate. The package includes a package substrate having a first cavity, the integrated device having a first active side and an inactive side embedded in the first cavity, and a structure partially enclosing the integrated device having a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first layer is coupled between the package substrate and the integrated device, and wherein the second layer is disposed over the inactive side of the integrated device.

A package on package (PoP) device includes a first package, a thermal interface material, and a second package coupled to the first package. The first package includes a first integrated device and a first encapsulation layer that at least partially encapsulates the first integrated device, where the first encapsulation layer includes a first cavity located laterally with respect to the first integrated device. The thermal interface material (TIM) is coupled to the first integrated device such that the thermal interface material (TIM) is formed between the first integrated device and the second package. The thermal interface material (TIM) is formed in the first cavity of the first encapsulation layer.

Improved Molded Laser Package (MLP) Packages which include a relief path for pressure and reduces the risk of shorting adjacent solder balls are provided. The MLP packages may include a gutter integrally connected to one or more through mold vias allowing a path to relieve pressure created when moisture gets entrapped in through mold vias, during the manufacturing process, while also reducing the risk of solder shorts between adjacent solder balls located in the through mold vias. Additionally, MLP packages which include gutters integrally connected to one or more through mold vias may enable tighter bump pitch and thinner packages. As a result, process margins and risks associated with surface mount technology (SMT) may be improved and provide more flexibility on inventory staging.

An electronic package with improved warpage compensation. The electronic package includes a mold cap having a variable thickness. The variable thickness can have a mound or dimple design. In another embodiment, a method is provided for reducing unit warpage of an electronic package by designing the topography of a mold cap to compensate for warpage.

A hybrid multilayer substrate in an electronic package. The substrate includes a first portion having m layers and a second portion having n layers such that m is less than n. The first portion has a first height and the second portion has a second height. The first height is different than the second height. In another embodiment, a surface is formed between the first portion and the second portion, and a shielding material can be applied to the surface. In a different embodiment, the hybrid multilayer substrate is manufactured for shielding a first die from a second die.

Hybrid multilayer substrate

A flip chip packaging method to attach a die to a package substrate, the method including dipping the die into solder paste; placing the die onto the package substrate; and reflowing the solder paste to attach the die to the package substrate. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
