Abstract
An integrated circuit (“IC”) package mold includes an upper mold platen that defines an upper mold cavity for receiving an upper substrate having a die attach side with a plurality of dies mounted thereon and a non-attach side with no dies mounted thereon. The die attach side of the upper substrate faces upwardly. A lower mold platen defines a lower mold cavity for receiving a lower substrate having a die attach side with a plurality dies mounted thereon and a non-attach side with no dies mounted thereon. The die attach side of the lower substrate faces downwardly.
Claims19
A method of making integrated circuit (“IC”) packages comprising:
- placing first and second substrates and a liner between the first and second substrates;
- placing the first and second substrates in a mold having upper and lower cavities with the first substrate positioned in an upper mold platen cavity and the second substrate positioned in a lower mold platen cavity, the lower mold platen cavity aligned with the upper mold platen cavity;
- filling the upper and lower mold cavities with mold compound to create molded structures;
- wherein a first hole and a second hole in the first substrate and the second substrate respectively, align with a hole in the liner;
- and a corner connecting structure connects portions of the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein an opening of the corner connecting structure aligns with the hole in the liner when the liner is positioned between the first and second substrates;
- flowing mold compound through the first hole, the second hole, and the hole in the liner to form connecting structures to hold the molded substrates together;
- curing the mold compound;
- and
- removing connecting structures holding the molded substrates together.
