Abstract

A system and method for combining a leaded package IC and a semiconductor die using a flex circuitry. The leaded packaged IC is disposed along an obverse side of a flex circuit. In a preferred embodiment, the lower surface of the body of the leaded packaged IC contacts the surface of the flex circuitry. The semiconductor die is disposed beneath the leaded package IC and, in preferred embodiments, disposed in a window that passes through at least a part of the flex circuitry and is attached to a conductive layer of the flex circuitry. In other embodiments, the semiconductor die is attached to the body of the leaded packaged IC. The flex circuitry preferably employs at least two conductive layers and, in preferred embodiments, the leaded packaged IC is connected to the flex circuitry at one layer while the semiconductor die is connected to the flex circuitry at the other conductive layer. In preferred modules, the leaded packaged IC is preferably a flash memory device and the semiconductor die is preferably a controller.
