A multi-chip electronic package which utilizes an organic, laminate chip carrier
and a pair of semiconductor chips positioned on an upper surface of the carrier
in a stacked orientation. The organic, laminate chip carrier is comprised of a
plurality of conductive planes and dielectric layers and couples one or both of
the chips to underlying conductors on the bottom surface thereof. The carrier may
include a high-speed portion to assure high-frequency connection between the semiconductor
chips and may also include an internal capacitor and/or thermally conductive member
for enhanced operational capabilities. The first chip, e.g., an ASIC chip, is solder
bonded to the carrier while the second chip, e.g., a memory chip, is secured to
the first chip's upper surface and coupled to the carrier using a plurality of
wirebond connections.
