摘要:
A semiconductor device having a redistribution layer, and methods of forming same, are disclosed. After fabrication of semiconductor die on a wafer, a tape assembly is applied onto a surface of the wafer, in contact with the surfaces of each semiconductor die on the wafer. The tape assembly includes a backgrind tape as a base layer, and a film assembly adhered to the backgrind tape. The film assembly in turn includes an adhesive film on which is deposited a thin layer of conductive material. The redistribution layer pattern is traced into the tape assembly, using for example a laser. Thereafter, the unheated portions of the tape assembly may be removed, leaving the heated redistribution layer pattern on each semiconductor die.

A flash memory card and methods of manufacturing same are disclosed. The card includes a semiconductor package fabricated to receive a single-sided or double-sided lid. A surface of the semiconductor package may be formed with holes, trenches and/or pockmarks. After the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks are formed, a lid may be attached to the package surface in an injection molding process. During the injection molding process, the molten plastic flows into the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks to interconnect with the surface of the semiconductor package. Thus, when the molten plastic hardens, the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks ensure that the lid remains firmly attached to semiconductor package.

A low profile semiconductor package is disclosed including at least first and second stacked semiconductor die mounted to a substrate. The first and second semiconductor die are separated by a low profile intermediate adhesive layer in which the wire bond loops from the first semiconductor die are embedded. After the intermediate layer is applied, the second semiconductor die may be stacked on top of the intermediate layer. A dielectric layer may be formed on a back surface of the second semiconductor die. As the back side of the second semiconductor die is an electrical insulator, the intermediate layer need not space the wire bond loops from the second semiconductor die as in the prior art, and the apex of bond wires may come into contact with the dielectric layer. The intermediate layer may thus be made thinner in comparison to conventional stacked semiconductor die configurations.

A semiconductor die substrate panel is disclosed including a minimum kerf width between adjoining semiconductor package outlines on the panel, while ensuring electrical isolation of plated electrical terminals. By reducing the width of a boundary between adjoining package outlines, additional space is gained on a substrate panel for semiconductor packages.

Enclosed re-programmable non-volatile memory cards include at least two sets of electrical contacts to which the internal memory is connected. The two sets of contacts have different patterns, preferably in accordance with two different contact standards such as a memory card standard and that of the Universal Serial Bus (USB). One memory card standard that can be followed is that of the Secure Digital (SD) card. The cards can thus be used with different hosts that are compatible with one set of contacts but not the other. A sleeve that is moveable by hand may be included to expose the set of contacts being used.

A dummy circuit pattern is disclosed on a surface of a substrate for a semiconductor package, the dummy circuit pattern including straight line segments having a length controlled so as not to generate stresses within the line segments above a desired stress. The dummy circuit pattern may be formed of lines, or contiguous or spaced polygons, such as hexagons. Portions of the dummy circuit pattern may also be formed with an orientation, size and position that are randomly selected.

Improved techniques for stacking integrated circuit dies within an integrated circuit package are disclosed. These improved techniques allow greater stacking density of integrated circuit dies within an integrated circuit package. Additionally, the improved stacking techniques permit conventional bonding techniques for electrical connection of the various integrated circuit dies to each other or to a substrate. These improved approaches are particularly useful for stacking same size (and often same function) integrated circuit dies within integrated circuit packages. One example of such an integrated circuit package is a non-volatile memory integrated circuit package that contains multiple, like-sized memory storage integrated circuit dies arranged in a stack.

摘要:
The present invention, roughly described, pertains to a small memory card that includes features which allow the memory card to be more easily handled by a user. In various embodiments, the memory card can include a chamfer and/or a raised portion that allows the memory card to be more easily grabbed by a human hand (or mechanical device) and also provides additional room to store passive devices such as capacitors and/or resistors. Because different electronic devices use different types of memory cards, an adaptor is provided that allows the memory cards disclosed herein to be used in ports or connectors on electronic devices that are meant for other types of memory cards.
