Wafer level packages and methods of fabricating the same are provided. In one embodiment, one of the methods comprises forming semiconductor chips having a connection pad on a wafer, patterning a bottom surface of the wafer to form a trench under the connection pad, patterning a bottom surface of the trench to form a via hole exposing the bottom surface of the connection pad, and forming a connecting device connected to the connection pad through the via hole. The invention provides a wafer level package having reduced thickness, lower fabrication costs, and increased reliability compared to conventional packages.

Provided are a wafer level chip scale package in which a redistribution process is applied at a wafer level, a manufacturing method thereof, and a semiconductor chip module including the wafer level chip scale package. The wafer level chip scale package includes a semiconductor chip having a bonding pad, a first insulating layer disposed on the semiconductor chip so as to expose the bonding pad, a redistribution line disposed on the exposed bonding pad and the first insulating layer, a sacrificial layer disposed below a redistribution pad of the redistribution line, a second insulating layer disposed on the redistribution line so as to expose the redistribution pad and including a crack inducement hole disposed beside the sacrificial layer, and an external connection terminal attached to the redistribution pad.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device having a through electrode and a method of fabricating the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a first insulating layer formed on a semiconductor substrate. A wiring layer having a first aperture to expose a portion of the first insulating layer is formed on the first insulating layer. A second insulating layer is formed on an upper portion of the wiring layer and in the first aperture. A conductive pad having a second aperture to expose a portion of the second insulating layer is formed on the second insulating layer. A through hole with a width narrower than widths of the first and second apertures is formed through the first and second insulating layers and an upper portion of the semiconductor substrate. A through electrode is formed in the through hole.
Abstract:
A bottle cap is disclosed, which displays an opened state and cannot contain contents again once it is opened. The bottle cap includes a cap having a screw formed on its inner surface to be engaged with a screw formed on an outer surface of a nozzle of a bottle, a reverse moving means connected to the cap and ascending in a direction opposite to a descending direction of the cap as the cap is rotated downwardly, a rod shaped nut having a screw engaged with the reverse moving means and moving up and down in a screw direction without rotation, and a display installed in the lower portion of the nut, displaying an opened state of the cap by hanging a part of the cap in the nozzle as the cap is moved downwardly by being pushed by the nut if the cap is opened.
