摘要:
A bonding tool for bonding inner leads to semiconductor chips is arranged to capture and align elongated lead sections extending in any one of plural directions, and preferably, in any one of two mutually orthogonal directions. Thus, the tool can be applied to align and bond all of the leads to a chip without turning the tool or the chip even where the leads extend in multiple directions.

A semiconductor chip package, and a method of making such a package, including a flexible dielectric element with a plurality of electrically conductive terminals, an expander ring connected to the flexible dielectric element, a semiconductor chip disposed with a central opening in the expander ring, and fan-in and fan-out leads connecting the terminals to contacts on the semiconductor chip. The package also has an elastomer encapsulant disposed in the gap between the expander ring and the semiconductor chip. The size of the gap is controlled to minimize the pressure exerted on the leads by the elastomer as it expands and contracts in response to changes in temperature. The semiconductor chip and expander ring may also be connected to a heat sink or thermal spreader with a compliant adhesive.

A thermally enhanced semiconductor package includes a sheet metal cap having flexible flanges provided with solder contacts for reliable attachment to a circuit board. The package assembly further includes a semiconductor chip with a contact-bearing front surface facing forwardly, and chip bonding contacts overlying the front face of the chip. The flange bonding contacts are coplanar with the chip bonding contacts, or can be brought into coplanar alignment by flexure of the cap. The package can be surface-mounted to a circuit board by placing the package onto pads of solder paste, and then heating the assembly to melt the solder paste in order to join the bonding contacts on the chip and on the flange to corresponding contacts on the circuit board.

Microelectronic assemblies are encapsulated using disposable frames. The microelectronic assemblies are disposed within an aperture defined by a frame. The aperture is covered by top and bottom sealing layers so that the frame and sealing layers define an enclosed space encompassing the assemblies. The encapsulant is injected into this closed space. The frame is then separated from the encapsulation fixture and held in a curing oven. After cure, the frame is cut apart and the individual assemblies are severed from one another. Because the frame need not be held in the encapsulation fixture during curing, the process achieves a high throughput.

An interposer for interconnection between microelectronic circuit panels has contacts at its surfaces. Each contact extends from a central conductor, and has a peripheral portion adapted to contract radially inwardly toward the central conductor response to a force applied by a contact pad defining a central hole on the engaged circuit panel. Thus, when the circuit panels are compressed with the interposers, the contacts contract radially inwardly and wipe across the pads. The wiping action facilitates bonding of the contacts to the pads, as by friction welding, or by a conductive bonding material carried on the contacts themselves.

A method of making a semiconductor chip package by attaching a chip to a dielectric layer; placing the dielectric layer and chip into a mold; disposing a thixotropic composition that has bee sheared to reduced its viscosity into the mold and curing the thixotropic composition after the chip and dielectric layer have been removed from the mold. A method of making a semiconductor chip package without using a mold by disposing a sheared thixotropic composition between a semiconductor chip and a dielectric layer and then curing the thixotropic composition to form a cured encapsulant. A method of making a semiconductor chip package without using a mold during the curing step and without the need to use a thixotropic composition by placing a semiconductor chip attached to a dielectric layer into a mold and disposing a liquid composition between the chip and the dielectric layer, forming a cured skin on the liquid composition, removing the work-piece from the mold and then completely the cure of the liquid composition.
摘要:
A semiconductor chip having contacts on the central region of its top surface is provided with a dielectric element overlying the central portion of the top surface. The dielectric element has a first surface facing toward the chip and a second surface facing away from the chip, a hole encompassing the central contacts and an edge bounding the hole. Central contact leads extend from the central contacts on the chip to central terminals on the dielectric element. The terminals on the dielectric element may be connected to a substrate using techniques commonly employed in surface mounting of electrical devices, such as solder bonding. The leads, and preferably the dielectric element, are flexible so that the terminals are moveable with respect to the contacts on the chip, to compensate for differential thermal expansion of the chip and substrate. The dielectric element may be provided with a compliant layer disposed between the terminals and the chip. The entire assembly is compact.
