Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Various packages and methods of forming packages are disclosed. In an embodiment, a package includes a hybrid encapsulant encapsulating a chip attached to a substrate. The hybrid encapsulant comprises a first molding compound and a second molding compound that has a different composition than the first molding compound. In another embodiment, a package includes an encapsulant encapsulating a chip attached to a substrate. A surface of the chip is exposed through the encapsulant. The encapsulant comprises a recess in a surface of a first molding compound proximate the surface of the chip. A thermal interface material is on the surface of the chip and in the recess, and a lid is attached to the thermal interface material.
