Abstract

A semiconductor chip assembly includes a semiconductor device, a heat spreader, a substrate and an adhesive. The semiconductor device is electrically connected to the substrate and thermally connected to the heat spreader. The heat spreader includes a post and a base. The post extends upwardly through an opening in the adhesive into an aperture in the substrate, and the base extends laterally and supports the substrate. The adhesive extends between the post and the substrate and between the base and the substrate. The substrate includes first and second conductive layers and a dielectric layer therebetween, and the assembly provides vertical signal routing between a pad at the first conductive layer and a terminal below the adhesive.
