Abstract
A ball grid array (BGA) package for an integrated circuit device includes an integrated circuit device having a plurality of terminals, and two largest dimensions that define a major plane. A package substrate material encloses the integrated circuit device, and is formed, in a plane parallel to the major plane, into a polygon having at least five sides. An array of contacts on an exterior surface of the package substrate material is electrically coupled to the plurality of terminals. Contacts in the array of contacts are distributed in a pattern of contact positions, and the center of each contact position may be separated from the center of each nearest other position by a separation distance that is identical throughout the pattern. Each position may be occupied by a contact, or positions in a sub-pattern may lack a contact and may be available for insertion of at least one via.
