Abstract
Provided are a semiconductor flip chip package with warpage control and fabrication methods for such packages. The packages of the present invention include heat spreader lids that are rigidly attached to the die or packaging substrate with a bond that can withstand the considerable bowing pressures caused by the CTE mismatch between the die and substrate. The result is a package with less bowing and so improved co-planarity (in compliance with industry specifications) with the PCB board to which it is ultimately bound. Package reliability is thereby also enhanced, particularly for large die sizes.
