Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a substrate with a plurality of conductive vias formed through the substrate and conductive layer formed over the substrate. A first encapsulant is deposited over the substrate outside a die attach area of the substrate. The first encapsulant surrounds each die attach area over the substrate and the die attach area is devoid of the first encapsulant. A channel connecting adjacent die attach areas is also devoid of the first encapsulant. A first semiconductor die is mounted over the substrate within the die attach area after forming the first encapsulant. A second semiconductor die is mounted over the first die within the die attach area. An underfill material can be deposited under the first and second die. A second encapsulant is deposited over the first and second die and first encapsulant. The first encapsulant reduces warpage of the substrate during die mounting.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a vertically offset BOT interconnect structure. The vertical offset is achieved with a leadframe having a plurality of lead fingers around a die paddle. A first conductive layer is formed over the lead fingers. A second conductive layer is formed over the lead fingers. Each second conductive layer is positioned adjacent to the first conductive layer and each first conductive layer is positioned adjacent to the second conductive layer. The second conductive layer has a height greater than a height of the first conductive layer. The first and second conductive layers can have a side-by-side arrangement or staggered arrangement. Bumps are formed over the first and second conductive layers. Bond wires are electrically connected to the bumps. A semiconductor die is mounted over the die paddle of the leadframe and electrically connected to the bond wires and BOT interconnect structure.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a flipchip or PoP semiconductor die mounted to a die attach area interior to a substrate. The substrate has a contact pad area around the die attach area and flow control area between the die attach area and contact pad area. A first channel is formed in a surface of the substrate within the flow control area. The first channel extends around a periphery of the die attach area. A first dam material is formed adjacent to the first channel within the flow control area. An underfill material is deposited between the die and substrate. The first channel and first dam material control outward flow of the underfill material to prevent excess underfill material from covering the contact pad area. A second channel can be formed adjacent to the first dam material. A second dam material can be formed adjacent to the first channel.
Abstract:
In a semiconductor device, a first semiconductor die is mounted with its active surface oriented to a temporary carrier. An encapsulant is deposited over the first semiconductor die and temporary carrier. The temporary carrier is removed to expose a first side of the encapsulant and active surface of the first semiconductor die. A masking layer is formed over the active surface of the first semiconductor die. A first interconnect structure is formed over the first side of the encapsulant. The masking layer blocks formation of the first interconnect structure over the active surface of the first semiconductor die. The masking layer is removed to form a cavity over the active surface of the first semiconductor die. A second semiconductor die is mounted in the cavity. The second semiconductor die is electrically connected to the active surface of the first semiconductor die with a short signal path.
