7. The mold is provided therein with the support column, the support column abuts against and supports the substrate, and gaps between the two sides of the substrate and the mold are injected with the thermoplastic material.

The circuit patterns 110A and 1108 include, but are not limited to, wirings, interconnection lines, antennas, and pins with electronic functionality, and the materials for fabricating the circuit patterns 110A and 1108 include, but are not limited to, copper, or silver, or iron, or other conductive materials or semiconductor materials. Via holes 120, external connection holes 140 and interconnection holes 130A and 1308 are fabricated on the substrate 100.


As shown in FIG. 2, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are pasted to the substrate 100 by a patch material 220, and the electronic parts 200A and 200B in FIG. 2 are disposed only on a first side of the substrate 100, but it is not limited to the present embodiment, and the electronic parts 200A and 200B also may be disposed on both sides of the substrate 100.

After curing, a part of the packaging layers 300 passes through the via hole 120, and the packaging layers 300 on the two sides of the substrate 100 are connected to each other through the via hole 120, so that the packaging layers 300 on the two sides of the substrate 100 are connected into one piece, and the packaging layers 300 on the two sides of the substrate 100 are pulled by that part of the packaging layers 300 passing through the via hole 120 so as to sandwich the substrate 100, thus the packaging layers 300 on the two sides are fixed on the substrate 100.


Using the thermoplastic material to replace the conventional thermosetting material for fan-out and packaging has low loss of electronic performance, and a higher speed, especially high-frequency devices have low loss, for example, the thermoplastic material is applied to an environment such as 5G, 24 GHz and 77 GHz sensors for vehicle-mounted safety, and 60 GHz high-frequency wireless HDMI. In the present embodiment, the thermoplastic material is LCP.


After the packaging layers 300 are fabricated, the circuit patterns 110A and 1106 and the electronic parts 200A and 200B are blocked by the packaging layers 300, then the external connection hole 140 and the interconnection hole 130 need to be opened again.

As shown in FIG. 6, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are located on the first side of the substrate 100, but when the electronic parts 200A and 200B or the circuit pattern 110A need to be externally connected from the second side of the substrate 100, the circuit pattern 110A or the electronic parts 200A and 200B are blocked by the substrate 100 and the packaging layer 300, then, the external connection hole 140 is fabricated in the packaging layers 300 and the substrate 100, and the external connection hole 140 is provided with an opening in the packaging layer 300 on the second side, to expose part pins 210 of the electronic parts 200A and 200B for external connection. As shown in FIG. 7, the outer pin 400 are fabricated in the external connection hole 140 through the opening of the external connection hole 140, the outer pin 400 is electrically connected to the part pins 210 of the electronic parts 200A and 200B. In the above, the outer pin 400 may be accommodated in a space of the external connection hole 140, or the outer pin 400 extends out of the external connection holes 140.


On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are provided with the part pins 210 for wiring, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are provided on the first side of the substrate 100, the part pins 210 face the substrate 100, the interconnection holes 130A and 130B are fabricated in the substrate 100 and the packaging layers 300, the interconnection holes 130A and 130B are each provided with an opening on a surface of the packaging layer 300 on the second side, the interconnection holes 130A and 130B pass through the packaging layers 300 and the substrate 100 to expose the part pins 210, and the interconnection holes 130A and 130B enable the part pins 210 of the electronic parts 200A and 200B to be butted to the circuit patterns 110A and 1106, and interconnection layers 410A and 410B are fabricated in the interconnection holes 130A and 130B through the openings of the interconnection holes 130A and 130B, so that the electronic part 200A is electrically connected to the circuit pattern 110A on the first side through the interconnection layer 410A, and the electronic part 200B is electrically connected to the circuit pattern 1108 on the second side through the interconnection layer 410B, wherein the interconnection layers 410A and 410B may be made of a conductive material or a semiconductor material through a process such as deposition growth, plating, and soldering.


The conventional thermoplastic material packaging process is used in cooperation with the conventional flip-chip fan-out process, and if it is replaced with the packaging method of the present disclosure, it is quite easy to cause incompatibility of the two processes, and the fan-out and packaging cannot be completed. Therefore, preferably, the interconnection between the electronic parts 200A and 200B and the circuit patterns 110A and 1108 is realized by adopting the manner of providing the interconnection holes 130 in the present disclosure, then the packaging process using the thermoplastic material in the present disclosure may be well compatible.

Embodiment 2

Embodiment 2 differs from Embodiment 1 in that:


the electronic parts 200A and 200B are thinned and then packaging is carried out.


As shown in FIG. 8, the circuit patterns 110A and 1108 are fabricated on the two sides of the substrate 100, and the via hole 120, the external connection hole 140 and the interconnection holes 130A and 130B are fabricated in the substrate 100.


As shown in FIG. 9, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are pasted to the substrate 100 by a patch material 220.


As shown in FIG. 10, after the electronic parts 200A and 200B are mounted on the substrate 100, at this time, positions of the electronic parts 200A and 200B relative to the substrate 100 are fixed, and the thicknesses (the thickness refers to height of the electronic parts protruding relative to the substrate) of the electronic parts 200A and 200B are reduced by grinding, cutting or other methods, and then the packaging layers 300 are fabricated. After the thicknesses of the electronic parts 200A and 200B are reduced, wherein the thicknesses of the electronic parts 200A and 200B may be reduced by grinding, cutting, milling, drilling, chemical etching, physical etching or other methods, the thickness of the packaging layers 300 may be reduced, and the thickness of the packaged entirety constituted by the substrate 100, circuit patterns 110A and 1108, electronic parts 200A and 200B, and packaging layers 300 may be greatly reduced. After the electronic parts 200A and 200B are mounted on the substrate 100, the electronic parts 200A and 200B are thinned, and only that required part of the electronic parts 200A and 200B may be retained, and an excessive part is cut away. The thicknesses of the electronic parts 200A and 200B may be reduced to a minimum degree without considering the mechanical strength required when transferring the electronic parts 200A and 200B.

As a shaping portion 103 occupies a part of space of the packaging layer 300, after the substrate 100 is separated from the mold 101, the space originally occupied by the shaping portion 103 becomes the external connection hole 310 in the packaging layer 300.


As shown in FIG. 13, after the packaging layers 300 are fabricated, the circuit patterns 110A and 110B and the electronic parts 200A and 200B are blocked by the packaging layers 300, then the external connection hole 140 and the interconnection hole 130 need to be opened again.
