Abstract

An adhesive system and a method of adhesion for a ball grid array semi-conductor device package facilitate the encapsulation of a die attached to a circuit board. A material is added between a die and a circuit board tape, and is oriented perpendicular to a conventional two-piece tape system used to attach the die to the circuit board. The material, which is located across from a gate through which an encapsulation compound is injected to form a package, acts as a diversion dam. The material thereby enables the injected encapsulation compound to fill a wirebond slot last and avoid an overflow which might otherwise damage the ball grid array.
