Abstract

Abstract of Disclosure A multi-chip stack package having a substrate, a first chip, a second chip, a plurality of bumps, a plurality of junction interface bumps, a plurality of conductive wires, a first filler material, a second filler material and an encapsulating material is provided. The substrate has a substrate surface with a plurality of first contacts and a plurality of second contacts. The first chip has a first active surface with a plurality of bonding pads thereon and a first chip back surface. The first chip is positioned over the substrate surface. The second chip has a second active surface with a plurality of bonding pads thereon and a second chip back surface. The second chip is positioned over the first chip back surface. The bumps are positioned between the first bonding pads and the first contacts. The junction interface bumps are positioned between the first chip back surface and the second chip back surface. The conductive wires electrically connect the second bonding pads and the second contacts. The first filler material encloses the bumps and the second filler material encloses the junction interface bumps. The encapsulating material encloses the first chip, the second chip and the conductive wires.
