High reliability, high density, low cost packaging systems for matrix systems for matrix BGA and CSP by vacuum printing encapsulation systems (VPES)

Ball grid array (BGA) and chip scale package (CSP) packaging markets are increasing. In general, transfer molding systems are used for these packaging processes. However, transfer molding systems are difficult to change the model for high expensive metal die. This paper describes a unique vacuum printing encapsulation system (VPES) we developed to solve such problems with lower cost than transfer molding. We used matrix type BGA and CSP for this test. Matrix type BGA and CSP make it easy to use printing technology for die-bonding, packaging, marking, and flux coating process. The total cost of this packaging is cheaper than the transfer molding process. We developed very low warpage and high reliability epoxy resin for matrix BGA and CSP. We succeeded in achieving high reliability and low cost packaging systems with this technology.
