摘要:
A semiconductor package having a low profile is disclosed. In embodiments, a surface mounted component may be mounted directly to the core of the semiconductor package substrate, so that there is no conductive layer, plating layers or solder paste between the component and the substrate core. The surface mounted component may be any type of component which may be surface mounted on a substrate according to an SMT process, including for example passive components and various packaged semiconductors.

A method of under-filling semiconductor die in a die stack and a semiconductor device formed thereby are disclosed. Once the semiconductor die are formed, they may be stacked and interconnected. The interconnection may leave a small space between semiconductor die in the die stack. This space is advantageously completely filled using a vapor deposition process where a coating is deposited as a vapor which flows over all surfaces of the die stack, including into the spaces between the die in the stack. The vapor then deposits on the surfaces between and around the die and forms a film which completely fills the spaces between the die in the die stack. The material used in the vapor deposition under-fill process may for example be a member of the parylene family of polymers, and in embodiments, may be parylene-N.

A low profile semiconductor package is disclosed including at least first and second stacked semiconductor die mounted to a substrate. The first and/or second semiconductor die may be fabricated with a plurality of redistribution pads formed over and electrically coupled to a plurality of bond pads. After the semiconductor die are formed and diced from the wafer, the die may be mounted to the substrate using a low profile reverse wire bond according to the present invention. In particular, a wedge bond may be formed between the wire and the redistribution pad without having to use a second wire bond ball on the die bond pad as in conventional reverse ball bonding processes.

Methods for forming leadframe-based semiconductor packages having curvilinear shapes are disclosed. The leadframes may each include one or more curvilinear slots corresponding to curvilinear edges in the finished and singulated semiconductor package. After encapsulation, the integrated circuit packages on the panel may be singulated by cutting the integrated circuits from the leadframe panel into a plurality of individual integrated circuit packages. The slots in the leadframe advantageously allow each leadframe to be singulated using a saw blade making only straight cuts.

A method of making a semiconductor device is disclosed including die bond pads which are heightened to allow wire bonding of offset stacked die even in tight offset configurations. After a first die is affixed to a substrate, one or more layers of an electrical conductor may be provided on some or all of the die bond pads of the first substrate to raise the height of the bond pads. The conductive layers may for example be conductive balls deposited on the die bond pads of the first substrate using a known wire bond capillary. Thereafter, a second die may be added, and wire bonding of the first die may be accomplished using a known wire bond capillary mounting a wire bond ball on a raised surface of a first semiconductor die bond pad.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
A semiconductor package is disclosed including test pads formed of solder bumps affixed to the semiconductor package during fabrication. When the package is encapsulated, due to the pressure exerted on the package during the encapsulation process, portions of the solder bumps get flattened out to be generally flush with and exposed on a surface of the semiconductor package. These exposed portions of the solder bumps form the test pads by which the finished package may be tested.

摘要:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor die and a low profile semiconductor package are disclosed. The semiconductor package may include at least first and second stacked semiconductor die mounted to a substrate. The first and/or second semiconductor die may be fabricated with localized cavities through a bottom surface of the semiconductor die, along a side edge of the semiconductor die. The one or more localized cavities in a side take up less than the entire side. Thus, the localized cavities allow low height stacking of semiconductor die while providing each die with a high degree of structural integrity to prevent cracking or breaking of the die edge during fabrication.
摘要:
A system and method are disclosed for applying a die attach epoxy to substrates on a panel of substrates. The system includes a window clamp having one or more windows through which the epoxy may be applied onto the substrate panel. The size and shape of the one or more windows correspond to the size and shape of the area on the substrate to receive the die attach epoxy. Once the die attach epoxy is sprayed onto the substrate through the windows of the window clamp, the die may be affixed to the substrate and the epoxy cured in one or more curing steps. The system may further include a clean-up follower for cleaning epoxy off of the window clamp, and a window cleaning mechanism for cleaning epoxy off of the sidewalls of the windows of the window clamp.
