Abstract

A multichip module includes a substrate having two padding strips, a first chip, and a second chip mounted thereon. The padding strips are mounted to two sides of the first chip. The second chip is disposed above the first chip in a manner that the bonding pads of the first chip are exposed outside the lateral edges of the second chip. In another embodiment of the invention, the substrate includes a recess, a first chip, and a second chip. The first chip is received in the first chip, and the second chip is disposed above the first chip in a manner that the bonding pads of the first chip are exposed outside the lateral edges of the second chip. A method is provided to manufacture a multichip module by placing a first chip on a substrate and then placing a second chip above the first chip in a manner that the bonding pads of the first chip are exposed outside the lateral edges of the second chip.
