A method of making a plurality of sealed assemblies is provided which includes a) assembling a first element to a second element so that a bottom surface of the first element faces downwardly toward a front surface of the second element and a top surface of the first element faces upwardly away from the second element; and (b) forming ring seals surrounding regions of the front surface of the second element by introducing flowable material between the first element and the second element from the top surface of the first element through openings in the first element. A chip is provided which includes: (a) a body defining a front surface and one or more circuit elements on or within the body; (b) one or more bond pads exposed at the front surface in a bond pad region; and (c) a metallic ring exposed at the front surface, the ring substantially surrounding the bond pad region. Sealed chip assemblies are formed by sealing an array of the chips, e.g., in wafer form, to a cap element.

Capped chips and methods of forming a capped chip are provided in which electrical interconnects are made by conductive elements which extend from bond pads of a chip at least partially through a plurality of through holes of a cap. The electrical interconnects may be solid, so as to form seals extending across the through holes. In some cases, stud bumps extend from the bond pads, forming parts of the electrical interconnects. In some cases, a fusible conductive medium forms a part of the electrical interconnects.

As disclosed herein, structures and methods are provided for forming capped chips. As provided by the disclosed method, a metal base pattern is formed on a chip insulated from wiring of the chip, and a cap is formed including a metal. The cap is joined to the metal base pattern on the chip to form the capped chip. In one embodiment, a front surface of the chip is exposed which extends from a contact of the chip to an edge of the chip. In another embodiment, a conductive connection is formed to the contact, the conductive connection extending from the contact to a terminal at an exposed plane above the front surface of the chip.
摘要:
A microelectronic package includes a microelectronic element having faces and contacts, and a flexible substrate spaced from and overlying a first face of the microelectronic element, the flexible substrate having conductive pads facing away from the first face of the microelectronic element. The package includes a plurality of spheres attached to the conductive pads of the flexible substrate and projecting away from the first face of the microelectronic element, each sphere having a contact surface remote from the conductive pads, the contact surfaces of the spheres including a contact metal devoid of solder. The package also includes a plurality of support elements disposed between the microelectronic element and the substrate for supporting the flexible substrate over the microelectronic element, the spheres being offset from the support elements.
