APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INTER-CHIP OR CHIP-TO-SUBSTRATE CONNECTION WITH A SUB-CARRIER

摘要

The present invention is directed to a method and an apparatus where the standard wire bonding of TBGA's is replaced using a solid intermediate subcarrier on which the die may be flip chipped and which may then be flip chipped onto the substrate. The subcarrier has a number of conductors replacing the wire bond. In this manner, a better reflection suppression, better impedance matching, smaller conductor pitch and other advantages are achieved. The subcarrier may also be used for mounting multiple dies in a single substrate.
