Adequate heat dissipation is essential for semiconductor devices. When a device exceeds a specified junction temperature, the device can be damaged, not perform correctly, or can have a reduced operating life. Semiconductor packages must dissipate heat from the chip to the external environment (i.e. to the PCB, air, etc) to keep the semiconductor device below a certain temperature threshold. For most devices, the most efficient way to dissipate the heat is through the package external I/O connections and into the PCB that it is mounted to. For Ball Grid Array (BGA) packages, the external I/Os are solder balls. Variable pitch packages pose advantages in heat dissipation without introducing significant costs.
