Abstract
BGA packages with a LGA package extension. First lands on a substrate are populated with solder balls, while only solder paste is dispensed on second lands that are surrounded by the first lands. Differences in solder stand-off may accommodate non-planarity in a package or the insertion of an LGA extension component, such as an IC or one or more discrete devices. Where an LGA extension component is attached to the second lands, solder paste may be further dispensed on third lands located on a package-side of the extension component. A BGA package is then attached to the first lands and third lands. The larger volume BGA solder connections maintaining mechanical reliability, particularly where the solder ball interconnects form a perimeter surrounding the low-volume solder interconnects.
