ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit chip package (10) including a high aspect ratio integrated circuit chip (12) is disclosed. The chip (12) has a length (L1) than is greater than three times its width (L2). The chip includes a plurality of circuit functional blocks (14), each having a plurality of integrated circuit components and bond pads (16) for the input and output of signals. In one embodiment, the circuit functional blocks (14) are aligned in parallel to form a row of circuit functional blocks. The high aspect ratio integrated circuit chip (12) requires less wafer area than a comparable low aspect ratio chip, thus allowing more chips to be made from a single semiconductor wafer at a lower cost per chip. Moreover, the disclosed method for producing a high aspect ratio integrated circuit chip package (10) minimizes the risk of cracking the high aspect ratio integrated circuit chip (12) during the packaging process.
