摘要:
An arrangement for protecting fuses/anti-fuses on chips which serve to activate redundant circuits or chip functions includes a passivation layer (e.g., hard passivation) arranged on a fully processed chip with the exception of metal contacts of a metallization level and the fuses. The chip is provided with a redistribution layer that is electrically contact-connected to the metallization level, and to a process for protecting such fuses/anti-fuses. The invention is now based on the object of ensuring sufficient protection of fuses/anti-fuses on integrated circuits. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that a dielectric (3.1, 3.2), which covers at least the region of the fuses/anti-fuses (4) and to which the redistribution layer (2) comprising the combination of materials Cu/Ni/Au is applied, is arranged on the passivation layer (5).

Structures for signal distribution are produced by applying a metallic seed layer over a semiconductor body. An insulating layer is applied over the metallic seed layer and openings in the insulating layer are produced by photolithographic patterning of the insulating layer. Each opening in the insulating layer is trapezoidal in cross section such that an upper portion of the insulating layer is wider than a lower portion of the insulating layer. A conductor is selectively formed over exposed portions of the metallic seed layer. After selectively forming the conductor, the insulating layer is anisotropically etched such that portions of the insulating layer abutting sidewalls of the conductor remain. Alternatively, a second insulating layer can be formed and anisotropically etched.

The invention, which relates to a method for fabricating metallic interconnects with copper-nickel-gold layer construction on electronic components, is based on the object of specifying a method by means of which it is possible to fabricate such metallic interconnects on different electronic components cost-effectively by means of the known and tried and tested methods which have a comprehensive corrosion protection. According to the invention, the object is achieved by virtue of the fact that the interconnects are embodied such that they are completely encapsulated by being deposited in a manner buried in a patterned dielectric layer in the lower region and being covered in the upper region by a nickel-gold layer adjoining the lower encapsulation without any gaps.

摘要:
A conductive connection is made between a semiconductor chip and an external conductor structure. An elevation element is applied on the surface of the semiconductor chip and a soldering island is arranged on the elevation element. An interconnect is produced below the soldering island as far as a bonding island or an I/O pad. Increased reliability of conductive connections of the bonding island or the I/O pad to an external conductive structure can be achieved by preventing the flowing-away of the solder and the oxidation or corrosion of the conductive layer.

An arrangement reduces the electrical crosstalk on a chip, in particular between adjacent conductors of the redistribution routing and/or between the redistribution routing on the first passivation on the chip and the metallization of the chip. In one aspect, the arrangement reduces the crosstalk between the redistribution wiring on a chip and its metallization and can be realized simply and independently at the front end. This is achieved by at least an additional conductor (10) being respectively arranged between adjacent conductors of the redistribution routing (1) and/or at least a second passivation (7) with a lower dielectric constant of a preferred “cold dielectric” being arranged between the redistribution routing (1) and the first passivation (2) on the active region of the chip (3).

The invention relates to a method for producing a rewiring printed circuit board with a substrate wafer having passage connections between a first and a second surface. One embodiment of the method comprises applying and patterning masking layers on the first and the second surfaces, thereby uncovering a first contact location on the first surface and a second contact location on the second surface; applying a protective layer to the second surface in order to protect the corresponding masking layer and the second contact location during subsequent method steps; applying a first conductor structure to the first surface, the first conductor structure on the first surface covering the first contact location; removing the protective layer on the second surface; and applying a second conductor structure to the second surface, the second conductor structure on the second surface covering the second contact location.
摘要:
An electronic component includes compliant elevations having electrical contact areas for contact-connecting the component to an electronic circuit. The compliant elevations are arranged on a surface of the component and the electrical contact areas are arranged on the tip of the compliant elevations. The electrical contact with the electronic circuit is embodied by means of electrical conductive tracks arranged on the surface of the component. The conductive tracks ascend on the outer surfaces of the compliant elevations to the electrical contact areas.
