Abstract

A non-leaded semiconductor package and method of fabricating the same is proposed, which can be used for the fabrication of a non-leaded type of semiconductor package, such as a CQFN (Carrierless Quad Flat No-lead) package. The proposed semiconductor packaging technology is characterized by the use of a metal plate as provisional chip carrier during fabrication and by the use of RDL (Redistribution Layer) technology to provide internal electrical interconnections between the I/O pads of the packaged chip and the non-leaded external electrical contacts. These features allow the fabrication of the CQFN package to be implemented without the use of bonding wires for internal electrical connections and without the use of substrate as a permanent chip carrier.
