A method of fabricating a micro-array IC package is recited. A wafer has a B-stageable adhesive applied, and the wafer is diced. The individual dice are applied to a lead-frame via their adhesive, and wirebonded to associated leads. The lead-frame is then encapsulated, and solder connectors are applied. The lead-frame is then singulated to produce a plurality of lead-frame based micro-array packages. The process thus allows lead-frame based manufacturing methods to be employed in the production of BGA-type packages, allowing such packages to be produced faster and more efficiently. |
