Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor package structure is provided. The structure is configured to include a base substrate, a die placed on the base substrate, the die including a semiconductor device, a solder bump placed on one surface of the die to exhaust heat generated in the die to an outside; and a solder ball placed on other surface of the die facing the one surface to transmit a signal, which is produced by the semiconductor device of the die, to an external device.
