Abstract:
Semiconductor packages with electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and a method of manufacture therefor is disclosed. The semiconductor packages may house single electronic components or may be a system in a package (SiP) implementation. The EMI shielding may be provided on top of and along the periphery of the semiconductor package. The EMI shielding on the periphery may be formed of cured conductive ink or cured conductive paste disposed on sidewalls of molding that encapsulates the electronic component(s) provided on the semiconductor package. The top portion of the EMI shielding may be a laminated metal sheet provided on a top surface of the molding. The semiconductor package may further have vertical portions of the EMI shielding with conductive ink filled trenches in the molding that may separate one or more electronic components from other electronic components of the semiconductor package.

Abstract:
Techniques and mechanisms for determining a level of degradation of flexible circuitry. In an embodiment, a flexible substrate has disposed therein first circuitry and one or more components coupled thereto, the one or more components to monitor a physical property of the first circuitry. Further disposed in or on the flexible substrate are memory resources to store predefined reference information which corresponds amounts of the physical property each with a different respective level of degradation. Evaluation logic accesses the reference information to determine, based on a detected amount of the physical property, a level of degradation of second circuitry. In another embodiment, the second circuitry is more flexible, as compared to the first circuitry.

Abstract:
A microelectronic die may be formed with chamfer corners for reducing stresses which can lead to delamination and/or cracking failures when such a microelectronic die is incorporated into a microelectronic package. In one embodiment, a microelectronic die may include at least one substantially planar chamfering side extending between at least two adjacent sides of a microelectronic die. In another embodiment, a microelectronic die may include at least one substantially curved or arcuate chamfering side extending between at least two adjacent sides of a microelectronic die.
Abstract:
Some embodiments relate to an electronic package. The electronic package includes a substrate and a die attached to the substrate. The electronic package further includes an underfill positioned between the die and the substrate due to capillary action. A support surrounds the die. The support provides the same beneficial fillet geometry on all die edges. Therefore, the support provides similar stress reduction on all die edges. Other embodiments relate to method of fabricating an electronic package. The method includes attaching a die to a substrate and inserting an underfill between the die and the substrate using capillary action. The method further includes placing a support around the die such that the support surrounds the die.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present description include methods for attaching a microelectronic device to a microelectronic substrate with interconnection structures after disposing of an underfill material on the microelectronic device, wherein filler particless within the underfill material may be repelled away from the interconnection structures prior to connecting the microelectronic device to the microelectronic structure. These methods may include inducing a charge on the interconnection structures and may include placing the interconnection structures between opposing plates and producing a bias between the opposing plates after depositing the underfill material on the interconnection structures.

Abstract:
Semiconductor packages and methods of forming semiconductor packages are described. In an example, a semiconductor package includes a shielding layer containing metal particles, e.g., conductive particles or magnetic particles, in a resin matrix to attenuate electromagnetic interference. In an example, the shielding layer is transferred from a molding chase to the semiconductor package during a polymer molding operation.
