Abstract:
A grid array-type integrated circuit package comprising:a non-conductive substrate including a top surface and a bottom surface, the top surface having a center point, the substrate further including a plurality of conductive bond fingers, each bond finger being electrically connected to an associated contact landing via conductive traces, the contact landings having contacts formed thereon; and an integrated circuit die attached to the substrate and offset relative to the center point, the die having a plurality of bond pads that are electrically connected to associated ones of the bond fingers, the bond pads serving as input/output contacts for circuit components of the die, wherein the die including opposing first and second sides, and third and fourth sides has a greater number of bond pads being located on the first side than on the second side, and the die is offset relative to the center point away from the first side; and wherein at least some of the contacts on the substrate are positioned outward from each of the first, second, third, and fourth sides of the die.
