Abstract:
A thermally conductive protective film or layer is applied to the backside surface of a semiconductor wafer prior to a subsequent dicing operation performed on the wafer to singulate the wafer into diced semiconductor chips, during which the thin thermally conductive film minimizes and prevents chipping and cracking damage to the wafer and diced chips. During subsequent electrical operation of a diced chip, the thin thermally conductive film functions as a thermal conductor to dissipate and conduct away to a heat sink any heat generated during operation of the chip.
