ABSTRACT:
An arrangement reduces stress in substrate-based chip packages, in particular of Ball Grid Arrays (BGA) with rear-side and/or edge protection. The chip is firmly connected to a substrate, which is provided on the side that is opposite from the chip with conducting tracks and micro-balls for making electrical contact with the next-higher wiring level. Regular trench-shaped structures are introduced into the substrate on the chip side thereof and at least enclosing the chip, in order to interrupt or shift the thermally induced mechanical stress in the substrate, indicated by the chip.
