摘要:
A semiconductor device with a sheet-like insulating substrate (101) integral with two or more patterned layers of conductive lines and vias, a chip attached to an assembly site, and contact pads (103) in pad locations has an encapsulated region on the top surface of the substrate, extending to the edge of the substrate, enclosing the chip, and having contact apertures (703) at the pad locations for external communication with the pad metal surfaces. The apertures may have not-smooth sidewall surfaces and may be filled with solder material (704) to contact the pads. Metal-filled surface grooves (710) in the encapsulated region, with smooth groove bottom and sidewalls, are selected to serve as customized routing interconnections, or redistribution lines, between selected apertures and thus to facilitate the coupling with another semiconductor device to form a package-on-package assembly.
摘要:
A device has a first semiconductor chip (101) with contact pads in an interior first set (102) and a peripheral second set (103). A deformed sphere (104) of non-reflow metal such as gold is placed on each contact pad of the first and second sets. At least one additional deformed sphere (105) is placed on the first set pads, forming column-shaped spacers. The first chip is attached to a substrate (110) with a chip attachment location and a third set of contact pads (112) near the location. Low profile bond wires (130) span between the pads of the third set and the second set. A second semiconductor chip (140) of a size has a fourth set of contact pads (141) at locations matching the first set pads. The second chip is placed over the first chip so that the fourth set pads are aligned with the spacers on the matching first set pads, and at least one edge of the second chip overhangs the sphere on at least one pad of the second set. A reflow metal (142) bonds the spacers to the second chip, while the spacers space the first and second chips by a gap (105a) wide enough for placing the wire spans to the second set pads.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for fabricating a semiconductor device are disclosed. The method attaches semiconductor chips (130) on a sheet-like insulating substrate (101) integral with two or more patterned layers of conductive lines and vias and with contact pads (103) in pad locations. A mold is provided, which has a top portion (210) with metal protrusions (202) at locations matching the pad locations. The protrusions are shaped as truncated cones of a height suitable to approach the pad metal surface in the closed mold cavity. The substrate and the chip are loaded onto the bottom mold portion (310); the mold is closed by clamping the top portion onto the bottom portion so that the protrusions are aligned with the contact pads, approaching the pad surface. After pressuring encapsulation compound into the cavity, the mold is opened; the encapsulated device has apertures to the pad locations. Any residual compound formed on the pads is removed by laser, plasma, or chemical to expose the metal surface.

摘要:
A high density interconnect device which creates a thin, electrically and thermally high performance package for semiconductor devices having a mechanically stable and high thermal conductivity substrate. Cavities in the substrate accommodate semiconductor devices attached directly to the substrate. The semiconductor devices include at least one optical receiver and/or transmitter. A thin film overlay having multiple layers interconnects the semiconductor devices to an array of pads on a surface of the thin film overlay facing away from the substrate. Connectors are attached to the pads to provide direct electrical and mechanical attachment to other system hardware. In one embodiment, the optical receiver and/or transmitter receives and/or transmits light signals through the thin film overlay. In another embodiment, the optical receiver and/or transmitter receives and/or transmits light signals through holes formed through the thin film overlay. The holes may be back filled with an optical quality material.
