Abstract:
1. A chip stack package comprising: a printed circuit board having a bond finger on its upper surface and a ball land on its lower surface; at least two face-up type semiconductor chips stacked on the printed circuit board, wherein each semiconductor chip comprises a plurality of bonding pads; one or more dummy pattern dies, each of which is attached to an upper surface of each semiconductor chip, and each of which has a circuit pattern on its lower surface and has a via pattern on its upper surface, wherein the circuit pattern on its lower surface is electrically connected to the semiconductor chip, and the via pattern on its upper surface is connected to the circuit pattern on its lower surface; a plurality of first solder balls for electrically connecting the bond finger of the printed circuit board with the circuit pattern of the lowest one of the stacked dummy pattern dies on the printed circuit board, while each of the other solder balls electrically connecting the via pattern of the lower stacked dummy pattern die to the circuit pattern of the upper stacked dummy pattern die; and second solder balls attached to the ball land of the printed circuit board.
