Stacked semiconductor package and method of making same

Abstract

In accordance with the present invention, there is provided multiple embodiments of a semiconductor package including two or more semiconductor dies which are electrically connected to an underlying substrate through the use of conductive wires, some of which may be fully or partially encapsulated by an adhesive or insulating layer of the package. In a basic embodiment of the present invention, the semiconductor package comprises a substrate having a conductive pattern disposed thereon. Electrically connected to the conductive pattern of the substrate are first and second semiconductor dies. The first semiconductor die and a portion of the substrate are covered by an adhesive layer. The second semiconductor die, the adhesive layer and a portion of the substrate are in turn covered by a package body of the semiconductor package.
