Abstract

A method of forming an integrated circuit package with a downward-facing chip cavity. A substrate comprising an insulating core layer and a conductive layer is provided. A through-hole is formed in the substrate and an adhesive tape is attached to the surface of the conductive layer. A silicon chip is attached to the exposed adhesive tape surface at the bottom of the first opening. The chip has an active surface and a back surface. The chip further includes a plurality of bonding pads on the active surface. The back surface of the chip is attached to the adhesive tape. A patterned dielectric layer is formed filling the first opening and covering a portion of the adhesive tape, the active surface, the bonding pad and the insulating core layer. The patterned dielectric layer has a plurality of openings that exposes the bonding pads and some through holes. A metallic layer is formed over the exposed surface of the openings and the upper surface of the patterned dielectric layer by electroplating. The adhesive tape is removed. The metallic layer and the conductive layer are patterned. A patterned solder resistant layer is formed over the metallic layer and the conductive layer. The pat…
