Abstract
Abstract A chip substrate providing registration features for chip components on the opposite to the circuit side with interconnecting through holes and method and means for simultanuously trimming these registration features for dimentional and location accuracy, drilling the interconnecting through holes for perfect registration with the registration features, and photoetching the high density portion of the circuit in and around the chip area.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly comprising: a molded chip carrier substrate including a cavity portion molded-in chip registration elements in the cavity portion molded on said substrate and on one first side of said cavity portion; at least one chip comprising terminal pads and positioned within said registration elements with the side containing terminal pads facing said substrate; said molded substrate containing interconnecting through-holes corresponding to said terminal pads on said chip; a printed circuit on the second opposite side of said molded chip carrier substrate and printed through said through-holes and in electrical contact with said terminal pads on said chip.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly comprising: a molded chip carrier substrate including a cavity portion molded-in chip registration elements in the cavity portion molded on said substrate and on one first side of said cavity portion; at least one chip comprising terminal pads and positioned within said registration elements with the side containing terminal pads facing said substrate; said molded substrate containing interconnecting through-holes corresponding to said terminal pads on said chip; a printed circuit on the second opposite side of said molded chip carrier substrate and printed through said through-holes and in electrical contact with said terminal pads on said chip.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
45 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 1, also comprising precision trimmed sections within said molded registration elements to provide a perfect fit on said chips and precision drilled said interconnecting through-holes for perfect registration between said holes and said registration elements.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 1, also comprising high density photoetched circuits in the chip area.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein said registration elements comprise at least two corner posts for each chip.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein said registration elements consists of cavities shaped to fit said chip accurately.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
25 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 5, wherein said cavities have reentrent corners to fit said chips at the corners only.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 1, and including laser fused powder metal interconnections between said printed circuit and said terminal pads.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
54 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 5, wherein said substrate comprises an upper layer containing the cavity portion of said molded chip carrier substrate, and a second layer forming the bottom portion of said molded chip carrier substrate, and means for permanently bonding said two layers into a solid structure.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
39 words
An integrated circuit chip carrier assembly as claimed in claim 2 or 6 also comprising high energy beam trimmed sections within said molded registration elements, and high energy beam drilled through-holes in precise dimensional relationship with said registration elements.
