Cavity down ball grid array packaging structure
First Claim
1. A cavity down ball grid array packaging structure, comprising:
- a heat spreader including a chip-mounting region at a central portion and a substrate-mounting region located around the chip-mounting region;
a substrate bonded to the heat spreader in the substrate-mounting region, wherein the substrate comprises at least an insulating layer, a patterned wiring layer, and a via electrically connected to the heat spreader, and the patterned wiring layer comprises at least a ball pad, a first contact pad, and a first ground pad spaced apart from and electrically connected to the via;
a chip having an active surface and a corresponding back surface, the chip being bonded in the chip-mounting region of the heat spreader, wherein the active surface of the chip includes at least a second contact pad electrically connected to the first contact pad and a second ground pad electrically connected to the heat spreader;
an encapsulant material encapsulating the chip, the first and second contact pads; and
a plurality of solder balls attached to the ball pad and first ground pad.

Abstract
In a cavity down BGA packaging structure, a circuit substrate is bonded onto a heat spreader. A cavity formed is formed in the circuit substrate into which a chip is bonded onto the heat spreader. The circuit substrate has at least an insulating layer, a patterned wiring layer, and a via electrically connected to the heat spreader. A first ground pad, ball pad, and first contact pad are defined on the patterned wiring layer, wherein the first ground pad is spaced apart from and electrically connected to the via. The chip comprises at least a second contact pad and a second ground pad respectively connected to the first contact pad and the heat spreader. An encapsulant material encapsulates the cavity, the chip, and the first and second contact pads. A plurality of solder balls are attached to the first ground pad and ball pad.
