Abstract:
A method of bonding components is disclosed. One embodiment of such a method includes applying both heat and pressure to a stack of components that includes an interposer with a reduced degree of warpage. Reducing the distance between the interposer and a first component of the stack of the components until a spacer prevents further reduction of that space. Then, cooling the stack of components while the pressure is maintained such that the degree of warpage of the interposer remains reduced.
Abstract:
An interposer sandwich structure includes a top interposer and a bottom interposer enclosing an integrated circuit electronic device that includes an attachment for attaching the device to the bottom interposer, and an interconnection structure connecting the top interposer to the bottom interposer. The top interposer may also be directly connected to a chip carrier in addition to the bottom interposer. The structure provides shielding and protection of the device against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), and Electromagnetic Conductivity (EMC) in miniaturized 3D packaging.
Abstract:
A method of forming a 3D package. The method may include joining an interposer to a laminate chip carrier with the solid state diffusion of a first plurality of solder bumps by applying a first selective non-uniform heat and first uniform pressure; joining a top chip to the interposer with the solid state diffusion of a second plurality of solder bumps by applying a second selective non-uniform heat and second uniform pressure; heating the 3D package, the first and second pluralities of solder bumps to a temperature greater than the reflow temperature of the first and second pluralities of solder bumps, where the second plurality of solder bumps achieves the reflow temperature before the first plurality of solder bumps, where the first and second selective non-uniform heats being less that the reflow temperature of the first and second pluralities of solder bumps, respectively.

Abstract:
An interposer structure containing a first set of solder balls is placed in proximity to a vacuum distribution plate which has a planar contact surface and a plurality of openings located therein. A vacuum is then applied through the openings within the vacuum distribution plate such that the first set of solder balls are suspended within the plurality of openings and the interposer structure conforms to the planar contact surface of the vacuum distribution plate. A semiconductor chip containing a second set of solder balls is tacked to a surface of the interposer structure. A substrate is then brought into contact with a surface of the interposer structure containing the first set of solder balls, and then a solder reflow and underfill processes can be performed. Warping of the interposer structure is substantially eliminated using the vacuum distribution plate mentioned above.
