A ball grid array package is manufactured by mounting a semiconductor die to a first surface of a substrate and mounting a die adapter to the semiconductor die. The semiconductor die is wire bonded to ones of conductive traces of the substrate. A collapsible spacer is mounted to the substrate and the substrate is releasably clamped to an upper side of a mold cavity. A heat spreader and at least one collapsible spacer are placed in the mold cavity such that the collapsible spacer is disposed between the heat spreader and the substrate. A molding compound is molded in the mold, thereby molding the semiconductor die, the substrate, the wire bonds, the die adapter, the at least one collapsible spacer and the heat spreader into the molding compound to provide a molded package. A ball grid array is formed on a second surface of the substrate, bumps of the ball grid array being electrically connected to the conductive traces and the integrated circuit package is singulated.

Ball grid array package and process for manufacturing same

A process for fabricating an integrated circuit package includes: providing a substrate having conductive traces therein, the substrate including a cavity therein; mounting a semiconductor die to a first surface of the substrate, in a flip-chip orientation such that a sensor portion of the semiconductor die is aligned with the cavity and conductive interconnects connect pads of the semiconductor die to the conductive traces of the substrate; filling an area surrounding the interconnects with an underfill material; and mounting a plurality of conductive balls on the first surface of the substrate and in electrical connection with the conductive traces such that ones of the conductive balls are connected to ones of the pads of the semiconductor die via the conductive traces.

Sensor semiconductor package and method of manufacturing the same

A ball grid array package is manufactured by mounting a semiconductor die to a first surface of a substrate array. Wires are bonded between the semiconductor die and ones of conductive traces of the substrate array. The heat spreader is disposed in a mold and the substrate array is releasably clamped to a top die of the mold. The semiconductor die, the substrate array, the wire bonds and the heat spreader are molded into a molding material to provide a molded package. Next, the molded package is removed from the mold and a plurality of solder balls are added in the form of a ball grid array on a second surface of the substrate array such that bumps of the ball grid array are electrically connected to the conductive traces. The integrated circuit package is then singulated from a remainder of the substrate array.
