Abstract
An electronic package which includes a rigid support member, e.g., copper sheet, to which is bonded both the package's semiconductor chip and circuitized substrate members. The chip is bonded using a thermally conductive adhesive while the circuitized substrate, preferably a flexible circuit, is bonded using an electrically insulative adhesive. The chip is electrically coupled to designated parts of the circuitry of the substrate, preferably by wire, thermocompression or thermosonic bonding. An encapsulant may be used to cover and protect the connections between the chip and substrate. This package may in turn be electrically coupled to a separate, second substrate such as a PCB.
