Abstract:
Over-molded IC package assemblies including an embedded voltage reference plane and/or heat spreader. In some embodiments, an over-molded package assembly includes a IC chip or die coupled to one or more metal distribution layer or package substrate. A molding compound encapsulates at least the IC chip and one or more conductive layers are embedded within the molding compound. The conductive layers may include an interior portion located over the IC chip and a peripheral portion located over the redistribution layers or package substrate. The interior portion may comprise one or more heat conductive features, which may physically contact a surface of the IC chip. In some further embodiments, the peripheral portion comprises one or more electrically conductive features, which may physically contact a surface of the package redistribution layers or package substrate to convey a reference voltage. One or more conductive traces may connect the conductive features in the interior with conductive features in the periphery.

Claim (Index 15):
A microelectronic device, comprising:\n a microprocessor; a memory; and a battery, wherein:\n at least the microprocessor is embedded within an interior portion of a package material; \n one or more first metal-filled vias or trenches pass through a thickness of a peripheral portion of the package material and contacts a metal distribution layer or a package substrate; \n a continuous metal sheet is coupled to the first metal-filled vias or trenches and occupies a first area over the peripheral portion of the package material; and \n a metal mesh is coupled to the metal sheet, the metal mesh comprising one or more second metal-filled vias or trenches passing through a thickness of the interior portion of the package material and contacting the metal sheet.
