摘要:
A semiconductor device includes a barrier layer between a solder bump and a post-passivation interconnect (PPI) layer. The barrier layer is formed of at least one of an electroless nickel (Ni) layer, an electroless palladium (Pd) layer or an immersion gold (Au) layer.

The described embodiments of mechanisms of forming a package on package (PoP) structure involve bonding with connectors with non-solder metal balls to a packaging substrate. The non-solder metal balls may include a solder coating layer. The connectors with non-solder metal balls can maintain substantially the shape of the connectors and control the height of the bonding structures between upper and lower packages. The connectors with non-solder metal balls are also less likely to result in bridging between connectors or disconnection (or cold joint) of bonded connectors. As a result, the pitch of the connectors with non-solder metal balls can be kept small.

A method of forming wafer-level chip scale packaging solder bumps on a wafer substrate involves cleaning the surface of the solder bumps using a laser to remove any residual molding compound from the surface of the solder bumps after the solder bumps are reflowed and a liquid molding compound is applied and cured.
摘要:
A method of forming electrical connections to a semiconductor wafer. A semiconductor wafer comprising an insulation layer is provided. The insulation layer has a surface. A patterned mask layer is formed over the surface of the insulation layer. The patterned mask layer exposes portions of the surface of the insulation layer through a plurality of holes. The portions of the plurality of holes are filled with a metal material comprising copper to form elongated columns of the metal material. The elongated columns of the metal material have a sidewall surface. The patterned mask layer is removed to expose the sidewall surface of the elongated columns of the metal material. A protection layer is formed on the exposed sidewall surface of the elongated columns of the metal material.

A semiconductor device includes a passivation layer overlying a semiconductor substrate, and an interconnect structure overlying the passivation layer. The interconnect structure includes a landing pad region and a dummy region electrically separated from each other. A protective layer overlies the interconnect structure and includes a first opening exposing a portion of the landing pad region and a second opening exposing a portion of the dummy region. A metal layer is formed on the exposed portion of landing pad region and the exposed portion of the dummy region. A bump is formed on the metal layer overlying the landing pad region.

A pad structure in a semiconductor wafer for wafer testing is described. The pad structure includes at least two metal pads connected there-between by a plurality of conductive vias in one or more insulation layers. A plurality of contact bars in contact with the bottom-most metal pad extends substantially vertically from the bottom-most metal pad into the substrate. An isolation structure substantially surrounds the plurality of contact bars to isolate the pad structure.
摘要:
A semiconductor device includes a passivation layer, a first protective layer, an interconnect layer, and a second protective layer successively formed on a semiconductor substrate. The interconnect layer has an exposed portion, on which a barrier layer and a solder bump are formed. At least one of the passivation layer, the first protective layer, the interconnect layer and the second protective layer includes at least one slot formed in a region outside a conductive pad region.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package device. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a package substrate having a first coefficient of thermal expansion and at least one bonding pad on the substrate. The method also includes forming an integrated circuit chip having electrical devices, having at least one coupling structure for electrically coupling the chip to the at least one bonding pad, and having a second coefficient of thermal expansion different than the first coefficient of thermal expansion. The method further includes removing a portion of a thickness of the chip that is free of the electrical devices sufficient to allow the chip to distort substantially with the substrate during temperature changes despite the mismatch in their respective coefficients of thermal expansion. The method also includes bonding the chip to the substrate using the at least one coupling structure and the at least one bonding pad.
