Patent ID: 7081678

Claim:
A multi-chip package combining wire-bonding and flip-chip configuration comprising: a) a substrate having an upper substrate surface and a lower substrate surface, the upper substrate surface having a plurality of contact pads; b) at least one wire bonding chip connected to the upper substrate surface and electrically connected to the substrate by a plurality of bonding wires; c) a molding compound having: i) a body formed on the upper substrate surface encapsulating each of the at least one wire bonding chip and the plurality of bonding wires; ii) two extensions extending from the body and along a horizontal direction on the substrate, the two extensions are substantially orthogonal; and iii) at least one recession having an arch shape and being located between the two extensions, the two extensions being spaced apart from the plurality of contact pads located on the upper substrate; and d) at least one flip-chip electrical device having a plurality of bumps electrically connected to the plurality of contact pads of the substrate.
