摘要:
A solder mask for use on a carrier substrate includes a device-securing region positionable over at least a portion of a die-support location of the carrier substrate. Dams of the solder mask are positionable laterally adjacent to at least portions of the peripheries of corresponding terminals of the carrier substrate. A carrier substrate includes at least one die-attach location and one or more terminals that protrude from a surface of the carrier substrate so as to prevent adhesive material from contaminating connection surfaces thereof. The solder may be positioned or formed on the carrier substrate. The carrier substrate and solder mask may each include one or more recessed areas that laterally surround at least portions of their die-attach location and device-securing region, respectively, to receive excess adhesive.

Apparatus and methods relating to semiconductor assemblies. A semiconductor assembly includes an interposer which may be constructed from a flexible material, such as a polyimide tape. A pattern of conductive traces disposed on a first surface of the interposer is in electrical communication with a semiconductor die attached to the first surface. Interconnect recesses accessible on the opposite second surface expose one or more conductive traces. A conductive element, such as a solder ball, disposed substantially within the interconnect recess allows the assembly to be mounted on a substrate or a similar assembly. By substantially containing the conductive element within the interconnect recess, the height of the completed assembly is reduced. Assemblies may be stacked to form multidie assemblies. Interconnect structures, such as connection pads, or enlarged traces upon the first surface are employed to connect stacked assemblies.
