摘要:
A method and structure for providing top-to-bottom repair of a defective I/O net in a thin film transfer and join process. At least one C4 location and at least one capture pad are provided on a thin film substrate. The substrate is preferably ceramic. The C4 location of the defective net is severed by removal of a delete strap. The corresponding solder connection of the associated capture pad is also removed. A spare C4 location and capture pad are connected to provide a Z-repair line imbedded in the TF wiring structure. The Z-repair line is wired to the defective net.

A process is described for semiconductor device integration at chip level or wafer level, in which vertical connections are formed through a substrate. A metallized feature is formed in the top surface of a substrate, and a handling plate is attached to the substrate. The substrate is then thinned at the bottom surface thereof to expose the bottom of the feature, to form a conducting through-via. The substrate may comprise a chip having a device (e.g. DRAM) fabricated therein. The process therefore permits vertical integration with a second chip (e.g. a PE chip). The plate may be a wafer attached to the substrate using a vertical stud/via interconnection. The substrate and plate may each have devices fabricated therein, so that the process provides vertical wafer-level integration of the devices.

A semiconductor device structure including fine-pitch connections between chips is fabricated using stud/via matching structures. The stud and via are aligned and connected, thereby permitting fine-pitch chip placement and electrical interconnections. A chip support is then attached to the device. A temporary chip alignment structure includes a transparent plate exposed to ablating radiation; the plate is then detached and removed. This method permits interconnection of multiple chips (generally with different sizes, architectures and functions) at close proximity and with very high wiring density. The device may include passive components located on separate chips, so that the device includes chips with and without active devices.

An apparatus for use in manufacturing a semiconductor device having input-output (IO) lands arranged in an IO array on an IO face includes a body having a plurality of cavities extending from an operating face into the body; the cavities are arranged in a cavity loci array which is in registeration with the IO lands when the apparatus is in a manufacturing position with the operating face generally adjacent the IO face. Each cavity has a depth and a lateral expanse which cooperate to establish a volume defined by a cavity bottom and at least one cavity wall. The volume accommodates an appropriate amount of solder material to establish a measure of the solder material on a facing IO land when the apparatus is in the manufacturing position. The depth is appropriate to facilitate wettingly attracting the solder material to the facing IO land when the apparatus is in the manufacturing position and the semiconductor device and the apparatus are exposed to appropriate ambient conditions to effect reflow of the solder material. The invention also includes a method for using the apparatus in manufacturing a semiconductor device.

A multiple plane pair thin-film structure and a process for the manufacture of that structure. The multiple plane pair thin-film structure is of modular design and manufacture, such that each module comprising the structure is manufactured and tested individually before assembly. The thin film wiring structure is comprised of a plurality of true plane pair thin-film structures. Each such plane pair thin-film structure is manufactured as a module, the functionality of which can be tested for conformity to applicable specifications. Each module is designed and fabricated as a plane pair thin-film structure.

A method is described for forming an integrated structure, including a semiconductor device and connectors for connecting to a motherboard. A first layer is formed on a plate transparent to ablating radiation, and a second layer on the semiconductor device. The first layer has a first set of conductors connecting to bonding pads, which are spaced with a first spacing distance in accordance with a required spacing of connections to the motherboard. The second layer has a second set of conductors connecting to the semiconductor device. The first layer and second layer are connected using a stud/via connectors having spacing less than that of the bonding pads. The semiconductor device is thus attached to the first layer, and the first set and second set of conductors are connected through the studs. The interface between the first layer and the plate is ablated by ablating radiation transmitted through the plate, thereby detaching the plate. The connector structures are then attached to the bonding pads. This method permits fabrication of a high-density packaged device with reduced cost.
