A semiconductor device has a substrate and plurality of first bumps formed over the substrate in an array. An array of second bumps is formed over the substrate on at least two sides of the first bumps. An electrical component is disposed over the first bumps. A package structure is disposed over the substrate and electrical component. The package structure has a horizontal member and legs extending from the horizontal member to form a cavity. The package structure is coupled to the array of second bumps. The package structure includes a material to operate as a heat sink or shielding layer. The shielding layer makes ground connection through the array of second bumps. The first bumps and second bumps have a similar height and width to form in the same manufacturing step. A protective layer, such as conductive epoxy, is disposed over the array of second bumps.

A semiconductor package includes a circuit board, an interposer structure on the circuit board, a first semiconductor chip and a second semiconductor chip on the interposer structure, the first and the second semiconductor chips electrically connected to the interposer structure and spaced apart from each other, and a mold layer between the first and second semiconductor chips, the mold layer separating the first and second semiconductor chips. A slope of a side wall of the mold layer is constant as the side wall extends away from an upper side of the interposer structure, and an angle defined by a bottom side of the mold layer and the side wall of the mold layer is less than or equal to ninety degrees.

A semiconductor package includes a first integrated circuit, a plurality of first through vias and a plurality of fin-shaped through vias. The first through vias surround the first integrated circuit. The fin-shaped through vias are physically connected to the first through vias respectively, wherein the first through vias are disposed between the first integrated circuit and the fin-shaped through vias.

Each of a plurality of terminals has a first portion and a second portion being a connection target for a semiconductor element. A manufacturing method of a housing includes a first step arranging, for a lower mold provided with a plurality of holes each of which is a target into which the first portion is inserted, a nest having a third portion covering at least one of the holes, a second step arranging, for the lower mold with the nest being arranged therein, the plurality of terminals by inserting the first portion into the hole not covered by the third portion, a third step arranging an upper mold on the lower mold with the nest and the plurality of terminals being arranged therein, and a fourth step, which is executed after the third step, obtaining the housing by performing resin molding using the lower mold and the upper mold.

A ring structure on a package substrate is divided into at least four different components, including a plurality of first pieces and a plurality of second pieces. By dividing the ring structure into at least four different components, the ring structure reduces flexibility of the package substrate, which thus reduces stress on a molding compound (e.g., in a range from approximately 1% to approximately 10%). As a result, molding cracking is reduced, which reduces defect rates and increases yield. Accordingly, raw materials, power, and processing resources are conserved that would otherwise be consumed with manufacturing additional packages when defect rates are higher.

A package assembly includes a package substrate, an interposer module on the package substrate, and a package lid on the interposer module and attached to the package substrate. The package lid includes an outer lid including an outer lid material and including an outer lid plate portion. The package lid further includes an inner lid including an inner lid material different than the outer lid material and including an inner lid plate portion attached to a bottom surface of the outer lid plate portion.

Solid metal foam thermal interface materials and their uses in electronics assembly are described. In one implementation, a method includes: applying a thermal interface material (TIM) between a first device and a second device to form an assembly having a first surface of the TIM in in touching relation with a surface of the first device, and a second surface of the TIM opposite the first surface in touching relation with a surface of the second device, the TIM comprising a solid metal foam and a first liquid metal; and compressing the assembly to form an alloy from the TIM that bonds the first device to the second device.

Package structures and methods of forming package structures are discussed. A package structure, in accordance with some embodiments, includes a package component with one or more integrated circuits adhered to a package substrate, a hybrid thermal interface material utilizing a combination of polymer based material with high elongation values and metal based material with high thermal conductivity values. The polymer based thermal interface material placed on the edge of the package component contains the metal based thermal interface material in liquid form.

A semiconductor package structure includes a substrate. The substrate includes a first ground layer. The first ground layer has a body and a first tooth protruding from a side of the body. The first tooth has a first lateral side. The first lateral side of the first tooth is inclined relative to the side of the body in a top view of the first ground layer.

An electronic package is provided, in which a package module and a shielding member are disposed on a carrier structure, such that the shielding member covers a top surface and side surfaces of the package module to block the radiation outward from the package module and prevent problem that other electronic components on the carrier structure cannot be transmitted signals normally due to the electromagnetic interference of the package module.
