MULTI-CHIP PACKAGE WITH OFFSET DIE STACKING AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME

摘要

A semiconductor device has a plurality of stacked semiconductor dice mounted on a substrate. Each die has similar dimensions. Each die has a first plurality of bonding pads arranged along a bonding edge of the die. A first group of the dice are mounted to the substrate with the bonding edge oriented in a first direction. A second group of the dice are mounted to the substrate with the bonding edge oriented in a second direction opposite the first direction. Each die is laterally offset in the second direction relative to the remaining dice by a respective lateral offset distance such that the bonding pads of each die are not disposed between the substrate and any portion of the remaining dice in a direction perpendicular to the substrate. A plurality of bonding wires connects the bonding pads to the substrate. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is also disclosed.
