ABSTRACT:
A ball grid array housing, a semiconductor device having a ball grid array housing and an electronic circuit are disclosed. In one embodiment, a ball grid array housing includes a substrate with solder ball connections pointing out from a housing and at least one semiconductor chip. For better heat dissipation from the housing, the ball grid includes a metallic cooling foil, or a metallic cooling plate. A method of making a ball grid array is also disclosed.
