A package-on-package arrangement for maintaining die alignment during a reflow operation is provided. A first top die has a first arrangement of solder bumps. A bottom package has a first electrical arrangement to electrically connect to the first arrangement of solder bumps. A die carrier has a plurality of mounting regions defined on its bottom surface, wherein the first top die is adhered to the die carrier at a first of the plurality of mounting regions.

A chip scale semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor die, a first bump and a second bump. The first bump having a first diameter and a first height is formed on an outer region of the semiconductor die. A second bump having a second diameter and a second height is formed on an inner region of the semiconductor die. The second diameter is greater than the first diameter while the second height is the same as the first height. By changing the shape of the bump, the stress and strain can be redistributed through the bump. As a result, the thermal cycling reliability of the chip scale semiconductor device is improved.

A leadframe-based semiconductor package and a fabrication method thereof are provided. The leadframe-based semiconductor package includes a chip implanted with a plurality of first and second conductive bumps thereon, and a leadframe having a plurality of leads. The first conductive bumps are bonded to the leads to electrically connect the chip to the leadframe. The chip, the first and second conductive bumps, and the leadframe are encapsulated by an encapsulant, with bottom ends of the second conductive bumps and bottom surfaces of the leads being exposed from the encapsulant. This allows the second conductive bumps to provide additional input/output electrical connections for the chip besides the leads.

A flip-ship semiconductor package with a lead frame as a chip carrier is provided, wherein a plurality of leads of the lead frame are each formed with at least a dam member thereon. When a chip is mounted on the lead frame by means of solder bumps, each of the solder bumps is attached to the corresponding one of the leads at a position between the dam member and an inner end of the lead. During a reflow-soldering process for wetting the solder bumps to the leads, the dam members would help control collapse height of the solder bumps, so as to enhance resistance of the solder bumps to thermal stress generated by CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) mismatch between the chip and the leads, thereby preventing incomplete electrical connection between the chip and the leads.

A semiconductor package and a fabrication method thereof are provided in which a chip is mounted on a substrate, and a dielectric layer is applied over the substrate and chip, with bond fingers formed on the substrate and electric contacts formed on the chip being exposed outside. A metal layer is formed over the dielectric layer and the exposed bond fingers and electric contacts, and patterned to form a plurality of conductive traces that electrically connect the electric contacts of the chip to the bond fingers of the substrate. The conductive traces replace conventional wire bonding technology and thus eliminate the occurrence of wire sweep or short circuits in fabrication processes. Therefore, a low profile chip with a reduced pitch between adjacent electric contacts can be used without being limited to feasibility of the wire bonding technology.
