    摘要: An integrated memory cube structure and method of fabrication wherein stacked semiconductor memory chips are integrated by a controlling logic chip such that a more powerful memory architecture is defined with the functional appearance of a single, higher level memory chip. A memory/logic cube is formed having N memory chips and at least one logic chip, with each memory chip of the cube having M memory devices. The controlling logic chip coordinates external communication with the N memory chips such that a single memory chip architecture with N.times.M memory devices appears at the cube's I/O pins. A corresponding fabrication technique includes an approach for facilitating metallization patterning on the side surface of the memory subunit.

    摘要: A fabrication method and resultant three-dimensional multichip package having a densely stacked array of semiconductor chips interconnected at least partially by means of a plurality of metallized trenches are disclosed. The fabrication method includes providing an integrated circuit chip having high aspect ratio metallized trenches therein extending from a first surface to a second surface thereof. An etch stop layer is provided proximate the termination position of the metallized trenches with the semiconductor substrate. Next the integrated circuit device is affixed to a carrier such that the surface of the supporting substrate is exposed and substrate is thinned from the integrated circuit device until exposing at least some of the plurality of metallized trenches therein. Electrical contact can thus be made to the active layer of the integrated circuit chip via the exposed metallized trenches. Specific details of the fabrication method and the resultant multichip package are set forth.

Each of the DRAM devices is paired with a non-volatile EEPROM cell and the EEPROM cells are disposed in a shallow trench in the semiconductor substrate running between the DRAM devices such that each DRAM-EEPROM pair shares a common drain diffusion. The EEPROM cells are arranged in the trench such that there are discontinuous laterally disposed floating gate polysilicon electrodes and continuous horizontally disposed program and recall gate polysilicon electrodes. The floating gate is separated from the program and recall gates by a silicon rich nitride. The array of the invention provides high density shadow RAMs. Also disclosed are methods for the fabrication of devices of the invention.

    摘要: Wafer test and burn-in is accomplished with state machine or programmable test engines located on the wafer being tested. Each test engine requires less than 10 connections and each test engine can be connected to a plurality of chips, such as a row or a column of chips on the wafer. Thus, the number of pads of the wafer that must be connected for test is substantially reduced while a large degree of parallel testing is still provided. The test engines also permit on-wafer allocation of redundancy in parallel so that failing chips can be repaired after burn-in is complete. In addition, the programmable test engines can have their code altered so test programs can be modified to account for new information after the wafer has been fabricated. The test engines are used during burn-in to provide high frequency write signals to DRAM arrays that provide a higher effective voltage to the arrays, lowering the time required for burn-in. Connections to the wafer and between test engines and chips are provided along a membrane attached to the wafer. Membrane connectors can be formed or opened after the membrane is connected to the wafer so shorted chips can be disconnected. Preferably the membrane remains on the wafer after test, burn-in and dicing to provide a chip scale package. Thus, the very high cost of TCE matched materials, such as glass ceramic contactors, for wafer burn-in is avoided while providing benefit beyond test and burn-in for packaging.
