Abstract

An improved heat dissipation module for BGA IC's is a thin metal module used for heat dissipation in an encapsulated IC device. It has an annular base with several supports extending from its inner rim upwards to support a top plate. At least one protruding annular ring is provided on the top surface of the top plate. This design can ensure the top plate and a mold match during the capsulation process, avoid the glue overflow problem, and increase its total dissipation area to facilitate heat dissipation.
