Abstract:
A chip carrier, comprising:a chip carrier substrate which includes a first surface, a second surface opposed to said first surface, and at least first and second layers of organic material, each being from about 2 mils to about 20 mils thick, at least said first layer of organic material being positioned immediately adjacent said first surface, and being photoimageable and bearing a first layer of electrical circuitry, including contact pads;a single-tiered photoformed cavity having a depth extending from said first surface toward said second surface, said depth extending at least through a thickness of said first, photoimageable layer; anda semiconductor chip, positioned face-up within said cavity entirely on said organic material, including chip contact pads and wire bonds extending from said chip contact pads to contact pads on said first, photoimageable layer.
