A molding method in which a control plate having a size which is equal to or larger than the width of the outlet port of a supply passage are disposed in a cavity adjacent to the resin supply passage of a mold and thereby, the resin molding can be effected substantially equally at upper and lower sides of the insert comprising a semiconductor device and a lead.

An easily reworkable circuit module is provided that allows unusable electronic components that have been encapsulated to be removed from a printed circuit board. A chip or MCM attached to a carrier using direct chip attach methods (DCA), such as C4 or SBC techniques that leave a space between the chip/MCM and carrier, due to the height of the solder balls, connection pads and the like. The presen...

A multi-layer package for semiconductor dies using two different types of dielectric materials improves the performance of a semiconductor package. The first material having a high dielectric constant is placed between the power and ground planes to form a decoupling capacitor and the second material having a low dielectric constant is used to contact the signal traces. Silicon carbide is preferre...

The use of a conductive reactive braze material, loaded in via holes of a diamond substrate and heated in a suitable temperature range, results in conductive vias with excellent adherence to the via hole in the diamond material. Cracking of the diamond substrate, and loose or lost via elements, are minimized. A form of the disclosure is directed to a method for producing a circuit board having a m...

A resin molded type semiconductor device has a metallic guard ring that is formed to cover the peripheral edge of the surface of a tetragonal semiconductor substrate. In order to prevent a passivation film on the guard ring from being cracked by stresses due to a resin mold package concentrating in the four corners of the semiconductor substrate, slits or rows of small holes are formed in the corn...
