Abstract

A packaging method for a ball grid array (BGA) integrated circuit (IC) without utilizing a base plate as a supporting plate, and therefore reducing the thickness of the packaged BGA IC. In the method, a copper sheet is used as a supporting plate first. After resin is applied to coat a chip implanted on the copper sheet and connecting wires thereof has hardened, the hardened resin is sufficiently firm to support the IC, so the copper sheet can be etched. Accordingly, a base plate is not necessary.
