## Abstract

A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system includes: providing a lead-frame having a metal connector mounted thereon and having a peripheral mounting region; forming an insulation cover on the lead-frame and on the metal connector; connecting an integrated circuit die over the insulation cover; forming a top encapsulation on the integrated circuit die with the peripheral mounting region exposed from the top encapsulation; forming a routing layer, having a conductive land, from the lead-frame; and forming a bottom encapsulation partially encapsulating the routing layer and the insulation cover.
