Abstract

A stacked chip package structure includes a first chip, stud bumps, a second chip, pillar bumps, an encapsulant and conductive vias. The first stud bumps are respectively disposed on a plurality of first pads of the first chip, wherein each first stud bump includes a rough surface, and the rough surface of each first stud bump is rougher than a top surface of each first pad. The second chip is disposed on the first chip and exposes the first pads. The pillar bumps are respectively disposed on a plurality of second pads of the second chips. The encapsulant encapsulates the first chip and the second chip and exposes a top surface of each second stud bump. The first conductive vias penetrate the encapsulant and connect the first stud bumps. Each first conductive via covers the rough surface of each first stud bump.
