Abstract
A window-type ball grid array (WBGA) semiconductor package is proposed. A substrate is formed with an opening and a tape attach area around the opening. A polyimide tape having an aperture is applied over the tape attach area, allowing the aperture to be aligned with the opening of the substrate. A chip is mounted over the polyimide tape and electrically connected to the substrate via the opening by bonding wires, wherein the polyimide tape is interposed between the chip and the substrate so as not to leave any gaps between the chip and the substrate. A first encapsulant is formed to fill the opening and encapsulate the bonding wires. A second encapsulant is fabricated to encapsulate the chip. With no gaps between the chip and the substrate, the chip is firmly supported on the substrate during a molding process for fabricating the second encapsulant, thereby preventing chip cracks from occurrence.
