    Abstract: An anisotropic conductive film (ACF) is formed with an ordered array of discrete regions that include a conductive carbon-based material. The discrete regions, which may be formed at small pitch, are embedded in at least one adhesive dielectric material. The ACF may be used to mechanically and electrically interconnect conductive elements of initially-separate semiconductor dice in semiconductor device assemblies. Methods of forming the ACF include forming a precursor structure with the conductive carbon-based material and then joining the precursor structure to a separately-formed structure that includes adhesive dielectric material to be included in the ACF. Sacrificial materials of the precursor structure may be removed and additional adhesive dielectric material formed to embed the discrete regions with the conductive carbon-based material in the adhesive dielectric material of the ACF.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly has a first substrate, a second substrate, and an anisotropic conductive film. The first substrate includes a first plurality of connectors. The second substrate includes a second plurality of connectors. The anisotropic conductive film is positioned between the first plurality of connectors and the second plurality of connectors. The anisotropic conductive film has an electrically insulative material and a plurality of interconnects laterally separated by the electrically insulative material. The plurality of interconnects forms electrically conductive channels extending from the first plurality of connectors to the second plurality of connectors. A method includes connecting the plurality of interconnects to the first plurality of connectors and the second plurality of connectors, such that the electrically conductive channels are operable to conduct electricity from the first substrate to the second substrate. The method may include passing electrical current through the plurality of interconnects.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly including a substrate, a semiconductor device, a stiffener member, and mold compound. The stiffener member is tuned, or configured, to reduce and/or control the shape of warpage of the semiconductor device assembly at an elevated temperature. The stiffener member may be placed on the substrate, on the semiconductor device, and/or on the mold compound. A plurality of stiffener members may be used. The stiffener members may be positioned in a predetermined pattern on a component of the semiconductor device assembly. A stiffener member may be used so that the warpage of a first semiconductor device substantially corresponds to the warpage of a second semiconductor device at an elevated temperature. The stiffener member may be tuned by providing the member with a desired coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). The desired CTE may be based on the individual CTEs of the components of a semiconductor device assembly.
