First, in step 310, as shown in fig. 2A, the chip 201 is subjected to plastic molding to form a first molding layer 202 covering the chip 201. In an embodiment of the present invention, the step may be completed by attaching the chip 201 to a temporary carrier plate that can be detachably bonded, and after the step of molding, removing the temporary carrier plate by detaching the bonding, which is a conventional wafer reconfiguration process in a fan-out process.

Then, in step 330, as shown in fig. 2C, a first molding layer conductive via 204 is formed inside the first molding layer 202, and a first metal layer 205 is formed on the upper surface of the first molding layer 202, wherein a waveguide signal feed 205-1 is formed at a position corresponding to the first molding layer conductive via 204. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first plastic package layer conductive via 204 is a metal via formed by a via, electroplating, or the like, and plays a role in transmitting a waveguide signal after being fed.
Next, in step 340, as shown in fig. 2D, a second molding layer 206 is formed on the first metal layer 205.
Then, at step 350, as shown in fig. 2E, waveguide sidewalls 207 are formed through the second molding layer 206. In one embodiment of the present invention, the waveguide sidewalls 207 are densely packed conductive copper pillars formed by electroplating; in yet another embodiment of the present invention, the waveguide sidewalls 207 are formed by hollowing out a cavity filled with a conductive paste.
Next, in step 360, as shown in fig. 2F, a second metal layer 208 is formed on the upper surface of the second molding layer 206, and a slot 209 is formed at a corresponding position, thereby forming a slot antenna. In one embodiment of the present invention, the second metal layer 208 is formed by sputtering, electroplating, or the like, and the slit 209 is formed by patterned etching. In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the second metal layer 208 and the slit 209 are formed in one step by patterned electroplating or deposition.

In an embodiment of the invention, the external solder balls 210 may be formed on the external pads (not shown) of the first redistribution routing layer 203 by ball-planting or electroplating, in combination with a reflow process.
A multi-channel AiP slot antenna package structure according to yet another embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to fig. 4.

The multi-channel AiP slot antenna package 400 differs from the AiP slot antenna package 100 in that the first molding layer 401 is divided into a plurality of cells by metal cell walls 404 inside the first molding layer 401. Thus each separate cavity, the slot antenna above the separate cavity, the side wall and the bottom are grounded to form a rectangular waveguide with the slot antenna; on the other hand, a plurality of waveguide signal feeding ports 405-1, 405-2 are formed on the second metal layer 405, however, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that more waveguide signal feeding ports may be provided to realize signal feeding of the antenna array. In one embodiment of the present invention, the metal compartment walls 405 are filled with conductive glue by laser grooving, preferably the compartment is completely filled, or the compartment is implemented with a relatively dense mega pilar.

The multi-channel AiP slot antenna package structure 500 is different from the multi-channel AiP slot antenna package structure 400 only in that in order to improve the coupling efficiency of the waveguide signal feed ports 505-1 and 505-2 to the rectangular waveguide cavity formed by the first plastic package layer 501, the signal path needs to be extended deep into the waveguide cavity, so that the waveguide signal feed ports 505-1 and 505-2 are extended deep into the first plastic package layer 501, or the waveguide signal feed ports 505-1 and 505-2 are extended upward from the plane of the second metal layer 505 and extended deep into the waveguide cavity. In an embodiment of the invention, the front surface of the second plastic package layer can be used for manufacturing two layers of RDLs, and the RDL of the first layer (adjacent to the second plastic package layer) is a metal layer which is basically covered completely, so that grounding is realized; the second layer of RDL extends a distance up from the surface of the first layer of RDL to reach deep into the waveguide cavity. The specific penetration distance is determined according to design requirements. In one embodiment of the invention, the second RDL may be implemented by a short Copper Pillar (Copper pilar).
Based on the AiP slot antenna packaging structure and the preparation method thereof provided by the invention, a multi-layer plastic packaging layer structure (such as a fan-out structure, Fanout) is adopted, after metal covering is formed on the upper surface of a top layer plastic packaging layer, a slot antenna is formed at a proper position, a waveguide signal feed-in port is formed on the bottom surface of the top layer plastic packaging layer, and full-metallization grounding is formed on the bottom surface and the side surface of the top layer plastic packaging layer except the waveguide signal feed-in port, so that a rectangular waveguide with the slot antenna is formed on the top layer plastic packaging layer structure; and forming a chip fan-out structure on the bottom plastic package layer, and forming a waveguide signal feed-in structure through the giant copper pillar, thereby forming an AiP slot antenna packaging structure. Meanwhile, a multi-channel AiP slot antenna packaging structure can be formed in a metal separation cavity mode on the top plastic package layer, and single-side multi-channel radiation is achieved. The AiP slot antenna packaging structure and the preparation method thereof can realize wafer-level packaging by combining a double-layer fan-out process with the processing of a plastic packaging layer conductive copper Pillar (Mega Pillar), and have the advantages of small thickness, multiple channels, multiple directions and low cost.
