Abstract

Disclosed is a high temperature, high pressure process of encapsulating electronic devices. The high pressure process is particularly suitable for encapsulating flip-chip devices wherein the collapse of flip-chip solder bumps is prevented. A special mold may be used to prevent the ceramic substrate of the flip-chip device from breaking under the high injection pressure conditions. The encapsulant is a rigid liquid crystal polymer.
