Dual laminate package structure with embedded elements
First Claim
1. A semiconductor package comprising:
- a bottom substrate including;
opposed top and bottom substrate surfaces;
a plurality of top contacts disposed on the top substrate surface; and
a plurality of bottom contacts disposed on the bottom substrate surface, each of the bottom contacts being electrically connected to at least one of the top contacts;
at least one electronic component attached to the top substrate surface of the bottom substrate and electrically connected to at least one the top contacts;
an interposer electrically connected to at least some of the top contacts of the bottom substrate;
a top substrate including;
opposed top and bottom substrate surfaces;
a plurality of top contacts disposed on the top substrate surface; and
a plurality of bottom contacts disposed on the bottom substrate surface, each of the top contacts being electrically connected to at least one of the bottom contacts, with at least some of the bottom contacts being electrically connected to the interposer; and
a package body defining a side surface, the package body at least partially encapsulating the top and bottom substrates, the interposer and the electronic component such that at least the bottom substrate surface of the bottom substrate and the top substrate surface of the top substrate are not covered by the package body.

Abstract
An interconnect structure (i.e., an interposer) which is mounted and electrically connected to a bottom semiconductor package substrate either prior or subsequent to such bottom substrate being populate with one or more electronic components. Subsequently, a top semiconductor package substrate which may also be populated with one or more electronic components is mounted to the interposer, such that all of the electronic components are disposed between the top and bottom interposers. Thereafter, a suitable mold compound is injected between the top and bottom substrates, the mold compound flowing about the electronic components, between the BGA joints, and at least partially about the interposer, thus helping to lock the interposer in place in the completed semiconductor package.
