Abstract:
Highly reliable interconnections for microelectronic packaging. In one embodiment, dielectric layers in a build-up interconnect have a gradation in glass transition temperature; and the later applied dielectric layers are laminated at temperatures lower than the glass transition temperatures of the earlier applied dielectric layers. In one embodiment, the glass transition temperatures of earlier applied dielectric films in a build-up interconnect are increased through a thermosetting process to exceed the temperature for laminating the later applied dielectric films. In one embodiment, a polyimide material is formed with embedded catalysts to promote cross-linking after a film of the polyimide material is laminated (e.g., through photo-chemical or thermal degradation of the encapsulant of the catalysts). In one embodiment, the solder resist opening walls have a wettable layer generated through laser assisted seeding so that there is no gap between the solder resist opening walls and no underfill in the solder resist opening.
Abstract:
This specification describes techniques for manufacturing an electronic system module. The module includes flexible multi-layer interconnection circuits with trace widths as narrow as 5 microns or less. A glass panel manufacturing facility, similar to those employed for making liquid crystal display, LCD, panels is preferably used to fabricate the interconnection circuits. A multi-layer interconnection circuit is fabricated on the glass panel using a release layer. A special assembly layer is formed over the interconnection circuit comprising a thick dielectric layer with openings formed at input/output (I/O) pad locations. Solder paste is deposited in the openings using a squeegee to form wells filled with solder. IC chips are provided with gold stud bumps at I/O pad locations, and these bumps are inserted in the wells to form flip chip connections. The IC chips are tested and reworked. The same bump/well connections can be used to attach fine-pitch cables. Module packaging layers are provided for hermetic sealing and for electromagnetic shielding. A blade server or supercomputer embodiment is also described.

Abstract:
A method for forming a plated microvia interconnect. An external dielectric layer (EDL) is mounted on a surface of the substrate and is in direct mechanical contact with a conductive element included in the surface. An opening formed in the EDL exposes the conductive element and creates a microvia in the EDL. A sidewall and bottom wall surface of the microvia is treated to promote copper adhesion to the sidewall and bottom wall surfaces. The sidewall and bottom wall surfaces are plated to form a layer of copper thereon. The layer of copper is in direct mechanical and electrical contact with the conductive element. A wet solder paste deposited on the layer of copper overfills a remaining portion of the microvia. The solder paste is reflowed to form a solder bump in and over the remaining portion of the microvia to form the plated microvia interconnect.
