Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a die having an active face and a non-active face; signal output pads located on the die's active face; a thermally conductive heat dissipater having a first surface and an opposed second surface, the first surface of the thermally conductive heat dissipater being positioned in close proximity to the die's non-active face and oriented to receive heat from the die, the thermally conductive heat dissipater extending laterally past the surface of the die; an encapsulation material located on the entire second surface of the thermally conductive heat dissipater, the encapsulation material having a surface that extends approximately coincident from the die's active face; package fan-out pads located over the surface of the encapsulation material and supported by the encapsulation material; and electrically conductive traces that electrically connect the signal output pads with the package fan-out pads.
