摘要:
A method of forming a low profile semiconductor package, and a semiconductor package formed thereby, is disclosed. The semiconductor die is formed with one or more sloped edges on which electrically conductive traces may be deposited to allow the semiconductor die to be coupled to another die and/or a substrate on which the die is mounted. Depositing the electrical traces directly on the surface and sloped edge of the die allows the die to be electrically coupled without bond wires, thereby allowing a reduction in the overall thickness of the package.

A flash memory card and methods of manufacturing same are disclosed. The card includes a semiconductor package fabricated to receive a single-sided or double-sided lid. A surface of the semiconductor package may be formed with holes, trenches and/or pockmarks. After the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks are formed, a lid may be attached to the package surface in an injection molding process. During the injection molding process, the molten plastic flows into the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks to interconnect with the surface of the semiconductor package. Thus, when the molten plastic hardens, the holes, trenches and/or pockmarks ensure that the lid remains firmly attached to semiconductor package.

Methods of forming a semiconductor package including a single-sided substrate are disclosed. In a first embodiment of the present invention, a substrate may include a conductive layer on a top surface of the substrate, i.e., on the same side of the substrate as where the die are mounted. In a second embodiment of the present invention, a substrate may include a conductive layer on a bottom of the substrate, i.e., on the opposite side of the substrate as where the die are mounted.
摘要:
A semiconductor die substrate is disclosed for preventing delamination of the die and/or die cracking due to air bubbles trapped beneath the die, and a semiconductor package incorporating the substrate. A solder mask may be laminated on a surface of the substrate which is patterned with one or more passageways, or canals, allowing air bubbles to be expelled from beneath the semiconductor die during the semiconductor package fabrication. The canals may have a variety of shapes, including for example a wavy, undulating shape.

An electronic component is disclosed including a plurality of semiconductor packages soldered together in a side-by-side configuration. The packages are batch processed on a substrate panel. The panel includes a plurality of through-holes drilled through the panel and subsequently filled with metal such as copper or gold. These filled through-holes lie along the cut line between adjacent packages so that, upon singulation, the filled through holes are cut and a portion of the filled through-holes are exposed at the side edges of the singulated packages. These exposed portions of the filled through-holes form vertical surface mount technology (SMT) pads. After the semiconductor packages are singulated and the SMT pads are defined in the side edges, SMT is used to solder the SMT pads of a first semiconductor package to the respective SMT pads of a second semiconductor package to structurally and electrically couple the two packages together side-by-side.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor die and a low profile semiconductor package are disclosed. The semiconductor package may include at least first and second stacked semiconductor die mounted to a substrate. The first and/or second semiconductor die may be fabricated with localized cavities through a bottom surface of the semiconductor die, along a side edge of the semiconductor die. The one or more localized cavities in a side take up less than the entire side. Thus, the localized cavities allow low height stacking of semiconductor die while providing each die with a high degree of structural integrity to prevent cracking or breaking of the die edge during fabrication.
摘要:
A semiconductor package is disclosed including a plurality semiconductor die mounted on stacked and bonded layers of substrate, for example polyimide tape used in tape automated bonding processes. The tape may have a plurality of repeating patterns of traces and contact pads formed thereon. The traces each include aligned interconnect pads on the respective top and bottom surfaces of the substrate for bonding the traces of one pattern to the traces of another pattern after the patterns have been singulated from the substrate, aligned and stacked. Semiconductor die such as flash memory and a controller die are mounted on the traces of the respective patterns on the substrate. In order for the controller die to uniquely address a specific flash memory die in the stack, a group of traces on each substrate supporting the memory die are used as address pins and punched in a unique layout relative to the layout of the traces other substrates. By providing each flash memory semiconductor die on a substrate with a unique layout of address traces, each memory die may be selectively addressed by the controller die.
摘要:
A leadframe for a semiconductor package is disclosed including electrical leads which extend from one side of the leadframe to an opposite side of the leadframe, where electrical connection may be made with the semiconductor die at the second side of the leadframe. The semiconductor die may be supported on the leads extending across the leadframe. The package may further include a spacer layer affixed to the electrical leads to fortify the semiconductor package and to prevent exposure of the electrical leads during the molding of the package.
