摘要:
A lead on chip (LOC) semiconductor leadframe package provides notched lead-fingers to eliminate mechanical shear-stress at the peripheral edge of a semiconductor chip. Opposite rows of substantially flat cantilevered lead-fingers are attached by double-sided adhesive tape in thermal contact with the active face of a chip. The lead-fingers are routed in personalized paths over the face of the chip to cover a large surface area to aid heat dissipation. All wirebond connections between the lead-fingers and the chip are made at a centerline connection strip running down the center of the chip. Each of the cantilevered lead-fingers has a notched portion positioned directly over the vulnerable peripheral chip edge to reduce thermal, mechanical shear-stress. Additionally, since corrosion typically follows a lead path, the notch provides increasing path length to prevent corrosive ingress over the chip face.

The fuse link includes a first and second interconnect, with interconnects each being substantially longer than deep. The interconnects are disposed toward each other with a insulator region between them. A fusible conductor, spanning the insulator region, is attached at the top of the interconnects. The present device allows the length of the fusible conductor to be shortened, and results in a fuse link that can be consistently blown with a single laser pulse. Additionally, the fuse link can be used in a staggered layout. The staggered layout of parallel fuse links allows a high number of links in a relatively small area, with or without the use of tungsten barriers, and allows accessing all fuse links through a single fuse blow window.

The present disclosure sets forth an improved integrated circuit in which circuit elements, adjacent to a fuse, are protected by barriers positioned adjacent the fuse. In the improved integrated circuit the barriers are non-frangible, high melting point structures buried in the passivating layer, covering a wiring layer containing a fuse, and are between the fuse and adjacent circuit elements in the wiring layer structures.Also taught is a method of protecting circuit elements adjacent a fuse comprising the steps of depositing an insulating layer on the surface of a semiconductor device having active regions therein, forming a plurality of fuses and circuit elements in said layer, coating said fuses and elements with a second insulating layer, patterning said second insulating layer to form grooves between each of said fuses and any adjacent fuse or circuit element, and depositing a high melting point and non-frangible material in said grooves.

摘要:
An improved insulation layer is formed by first preparing a solution by reacting water with an aminoalkoxysilane monomer in a solvent, using a critical mole ratio of water/monomer. After a sufficient aging period, the solution is coated onto a suitable surface, e.g. the surface of a semiconductor device, and then cured, in an essentially oxygen-free atmosphere, to a ladder-type silsesquioxane polymer. The insulation layer demonstrates excellent planarizing characteristics, while also exhibiting enhanced crack-resistance.

摘要:
An insulator for covering an interconnection wiring level in a surface thereof on a semiconductor substrate containing semiconductor devices formed by curing a flowable oxide layer and annealing is provided. The annealing is carried out in the presence of hydrogen and aluminum to obtain a dielectric constant of the oxide layer to a value below 3.2. Also provided is electrical insulation between neighboring devices using the flowable oxide which is cured and annealed. In this case, the annealing can be carried out in hydrogen with or without the presence of aluminum.
