METHOD FOR FABRICATING EMI SHIELDING PACKAGE STRUCTURE

An EMI shielding package structure includes a substrate unit having a first surface with a die mounting area and a second surfaces opposite to the first surface, metallic pillars formed on the first surface, a chip mounted on and electrically connected to the die-mounting area, an encapsulant covering the chip and the first surface while exposing a portion of each of the metallic pillars from the encapsulant, and a shielding film enclosing the encapsulant and electrically connecting to the metallic pillars. A fabrication method of the above structure by two cutting processes is further provided. The first cutting process forms grooves by cutting the encapsulant. After a shielding film is formed in the grooves and electrically connected to the metallic pillars, the complete package structure is formed by the second cutting process, thereby simplifying the fabrication process while overcoming inferior grounding of the shielding film as encountered in prior techniques.
