A semiconductor package includes a molding compound, a chip and a conductive pad, wherein the chip is electrically connected to the conductive pad and both are encapsulated in the molding compound. An anchor flange is formed around a top surface of the conductive pad by over plating. When the conductive pad is embedded in the molding compound, the anchor flange engages the molding compound to prevent the conductive pad from separation. Bottoms of a chip and the conductive pad are exposed from the molding compound for electrically soldering to a circuit board.

Disclosed herein are integrated circuit (IC) structures that may be included in package substrates. For example, disclosed herein are passive components in package substrate, wherein the passive components include at least one non-circular via and at least one pad in contact with the at least one non-circular via, and the passive components include an inductor or a capacitor. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

A first side of a tapeless leadframe package is etched to form a ring shaped protrusion and a lead protrusion extending from a base layer. An integrated circuit die is mounted to tapeless leadframe package in flip chip orientation with a front side facing the first side. An electrical and mechanical attachment is made between a bonding pad of the integrated circuit die and the lead protrusion. A mechanical attachment is made between the front side of the integrated circuit die and the ring shaped protrusion. The integrated circuit die and the protrusions from the tapeless leadframe package are encapsulated within an encapsulating block. The second side of the tapeless leadframe package is then etched to remove portions of the base layer and define a lead for a leadframe from the lead protrusion and further define a die support for the leadframe from the ring shaped protrusion.

A method of manufacturing a die package structure includes steps described below. A conductive substrate with a plurality of trenches is provided. A die is disposed in each of the trenches. A conductive layer is formed covering the dies and the conductive substrate. A patterned photoresist layer with a plurality of openings is formed exposing a plurality of areas of the conductive layer. A mask is formed on each of the areas of the conductive layer. The patterned photoresist layer is removed after forming the masks. By using the masks, the conductive layer and the conductive substrate under thereof are selectively etched to a predetermined depth to form a plurality of conductive bumps and a plurality of electrodes, in which a remaining of the conductive substrate includes a bottom substrate, the electrodes and the conductive bumps. An upper sealing layer is formed covering the bottom substrate and the dies.

A semiconductor integrated circuit chip is arranged on a first surface of a substrate that includes electrically conductive lead formations in an array, wherein the electrically conductive lead formations are covered by a masking layer at a second surface opposite the first surface. The semiconductor integrated circuit chip is electrically coupled to electrically conductive lead formations and an insulating encapsulation is molded on the semiconductor integrated circuit chip. The masking layer is then selectively removed, for example, via laser ablation, from one or more of the electrically conductive lead formations. The electrically conductive lead formations that are left uncovered by the masking layer are then removed by an etching process applied to the second surface of the substrate. The selective removal of the unmasked electrically conductive lead formations serves to increase a creepage distance between those conductive lead formations that are left in place.
