The introduction of BGAs, with an array of solder balls underneath
the package, has allowed package pin count and density to increase.
A similar migration, from perimeter pads to an area array format is
necessary at the silicon to package interconnect level to achieve
reasonable die sizes and meet silicon/package electrical performance
requirements for high end designs now requiring 600 - 2400 pins.
Flip chip, placing an array of solder bumps underneath the die,
offers the shortest interconnect path (i.e., low inductance) and
highest I/O density available. (Note: Die is “flipped over” with
active silicon side and solder bumps facing down). Using build-up
technology organic substrates designed with multiple power, ground
and signal layers while providing an efficient heat transfer path
directly from the back side of the die to a heat sink, the PBGA[FC]
can handle the most serious high performance design challenges.
