摘要:
A technique for enabling sufficient flow of flux cleaning fluids and an underfill material in the relatively low-profile gap between a flip-chip bonded IC chip and a substrate, such as a printed circuit board, is to provide at least one aperture in the substrate under the IC chip. The use of such an aperture enables, for example, flux cleaning fluid to flow through the aperture into the low-profile gap between the IC chip and the substrate surface, such as by the application of pressure or by gravity, which then exits through openings between formed interconnect bonds at a sufficient flow rate to adequately remove flux residues. An epoxy underfill to the IC chip can be formed in a similar manner. For example, a relatively thick bead of epoxy, such as on the order of the thickness of the IC chip, is deposited or stencil printed on the substrate surface around the edges of the IC chip and capillary action is then relied upon to draw the epoxy into the low-profile gap. Undesirable air pockets which otherwise would develop form the displaced air as the epoxy flows into the low-profile gap can advantageously escape through the aperture of the invention.
摘要:
An integrated circuit package including a die housing an integrated circuit and having a plurality of electrical contact pads on a surface of the die. The electrical contact pads include energizing contact pads for connecting power and ground lines to the integrated circuit, and include data contact pads. The energizing contact pads lie along the path of intersecting first and second directional lines. The intersecting directional lines define four quadrants on the surface of the die, each quadrant containing at least one data contact pad.

Disclosed is a semiconductor package which permits coupling of semiconductor bond pads to I/O leads where a high density of connections is needed. Conductive fingers backed by an insulating tape are bonded to the ends of the ringers on a lead frame. The tape fingers are electrically coupled to the bond pads on one major surface of the semiconductor chip by wire bonding. In one embodiment, the opposite major surface of the chip is bonded to a paddle on the lead frame through an aperture in the tape for maximum heat dissipation.
