Abstract:
Provided are a semiconductor chip package, a semiconductor package, and a method of fabricating the same. In some embodiments, the semiconductor chip packages includes a semiconductor chip including an active surface, a rear surface, and side surfaces, bump solder balls provided on bonding pads formed on the active surface, and a molding layer provided to cover the active surface and expose portions of the bump solder balls. The molding layer between adjacent bump solder balls may have a meniscus concave surface, where a height from the active surface to an edge of the meniscus concave surface contacting the bump solder ball is about a 1/7 length of the maximum diameter of a respective bump solder ball at below or above a section of the bump solder ball having the maximum diameter.
Abstract:
Wires included in integrated circuit devices can have separate insulating structures formed thereon. The separate insulating structures on the wires can surround respective cross sectional portions of the wires, which can function as “stand-offs” to prevent immediately neighboring wires (or other neighboring components) from shorting together to thereby allow a reduction in defects associated with devices having reduced pitch between the wires (or other components).
Abstract:
A stacked BGA package and a method for manufacturing the stacked BGA package, with reduced size and/or height of a unit package, which may also reduce an electrical connection length. The stacked BGA package may include a base BGA package having at least one semiconductor chip, and a plurality of BGA packages which are stacked on the base BGA package. A plurality of solder balls may electrically connect the base BGA package and the plurality of BGA packages and may then be sealed to reduce the likelihood of damage.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for picking up a semiconductor chip, a method and apparatus for removing a semiconductor chip from a dicing tape, and a method of forming a perforated dicing tape are provided. Air may be blown through air holes in a dicing tape to at least partially separate the semiconductor chip from the dicing tape and/or create a space between the semiconductor chip to weaken the adhesion of the dicing tape to the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip may then be picked up by a removal member and completely removed from the dicing tape. Semiconductor chips that are not to be removed may be vacuum-suctioned to the dicing tape. UV radiation or heat may be applied to weaken the adhesion of the dicing tape. The semiconductor chip may be detected by an optical detector. Removing the semiconductor chips by air reduces stress and damage to the semiconductor chips.

Provided are a molding apparatus and a molding method. The molding apparatus a mold including a cavity and a runner. The molding apparatus may further include a pot connected to the runner of the mold, wherein a fluid resin is contained in the pot The molding apparatus may further include a compression gas injection unit configured to inject a compression gas into the pot such that the fluid resin contained in the pot is transferred to the cavity and the runner.
Abstract:
A package substrate may include an insulating substrate, a circuit pattern and a mold gate pattern. The insulating pattern may have a mold gate region through which a molding member may pass. The circuit pattern may be formed on the insulating substrate. The mold gate pattern may be formed on the mold gate region of the insulating substrate. The mold gate pattern may include a polymer having relatively strong adhesion strength with respect to the insulating substrate and relatively weak adhesion strength with respect to the molding member. Thus, costs of the package substrate and the semiconductor package may be decreased.
Abstract:
In a method of molding a substrate, a molding structure including a release film and flat plate-shaped epoxy molding compound (EMC) is placed on an upper face of a lower die. The substrate is held by a lower face of an upper die facing the lower die. The molding structure and the substrate are compressed using the lower die and the upper die to form a preliminarily molded substrate. The lower die is then downwardly moved from the upper die to form a molded substrate.

Embodiments of the invention provide a semiconductor-chip mounting body, a semiconductor device including the mounting body, and a method of packaging the semiconductor device. According to some embodiments, when a semiconductor chip is mounted on the mounting body as a flip-chip type, an encapsulation process using an encapsulation resin is not required. In some embodiments, the mounting body includes a substrate formed of a polyimide film, a conductive pattern formed of copper, a protection layer pattern formed of PSR, and an adhesive pattern formed on the protection layer pattern. The adhesive pattern can be formed of an insulating material. A plurality of holes, into which a plurality of bumps formed on the semiconductor chip are inserted to be connected to the conductive pattern, are formed in the protection layer pattern and the adhesive pattern.
