A method for fabricating a carrier-free semiconductor package includes: half-etching a metal carrier to form a plurality of recess grooves and a plurality of metal studs each serving in position as a solder pad or a die pad; filing each of the recess grooves with a first encapsulant; forming on the metal studs an antioxidant layer such as a silver plating layer or an organic solderable protection layer; and performing die-bonding, wire-bonding and molding processes respectively to form a second encapsulant encapsulating the chip. The recess grooves are filled with the first encapsulant to enhance the adhesion between the first encapsulant and the metal carrier, thereby solving the conventional problem of having a weak and pliable copper plate and avoiding transportation difficulty. The invention eliminates the use of costly metals as an etching resist layer to reduce fabrication cost, and further allows conductive traces to be flexibly disposed on the metal carrier to enhance electrical connection quality.

A third passivation layer is further applied on the semiconductor substrate and has a plurality of openings for exposing a portion of the metallic layer, wherein each of the openings is shifted in position from a corresponding one of the bonding pads by a distance not exceeding a radius of the bonding pad.

摘要:
A method is proposed for forming circuit probing (CP) contact points on fine pitch peripheral bond pads (PBP) on a flip chip for the purpose of facilitating peripheral circuit probing of the internal circuitry of the flip chip. The proposed method is characterized in the forming of a dual-layer NiV/Cu metallization structure, rather than a triple-layer Al/NiV/Cu metallization structure, over each aluminum-based PBP, which includes a bottom layer of nickel-vanadium (NiV) deposited over the aluminum-based PBP and an upper layer of copper (Cu) deposited over the nickel-vanadium layer. When low-resolution photolithographic and etching equipment is used for photoresist mask definition for selective removal of the NiV/Cu metallization structure, the resulted photoresist masking can be misaligned to the PBP. However, since no aluminum layer is included in the metallization structure, a Cu/NiV specific etchant would only etch away the copper layer and the nickel-vanadium layer but not the aluminum-based PBP, thus leaving the unmasked portion of the aluminum-based PBP intact.
