摘要:
The mechanisms of forming a semiconductor device package described above provide a low-cost manufacturing process due to the relative simple process flow. By forming an interconnecting structure with a redistribution layer(s) to enable bonding of one or more dies underneath a package structure, the warpage of the overall package is greatly reduced. In addition, interconnecting structure is formed without using a molding compound, which reduces particle contamination. The reduction of warpage and particle contamination improves yield. Further, the semiconductor device package formed has low form factor with one or more dies fit underneath a space between a package structure and an interconnecting structure.

The embodiments of mechanisms of wafer-level packaging (WLP) described above utilize a planarization stop layer to determine an end-point of the removal of excess molding compound prior to formation of redistribution lines (RDLs). Such mechanisms of WLP are used to implement fan-out and multi-chip packaging. The mechanisms are also usable to manufacture a package including chips (or dies) with different types of external connections. For example, a die with pre-formed bumps can be packaged with a die without pre-formed bumps.

摘要:
The mechanisms of forming a molding compound on a semiconductor device substrate to enable fan-out structures in wafer-level packaging (WLP) are provided. The mechanisms involve covering portions of surfaces of an insulating layer surrounding a contact pad. The mechanisms improve reliability of the package and process control of the packaging process. The mechanisms also reduce the risk of interfacial delamination, and excessive outgassing of the insulating layer during subsequent processing. The mechanisms further improve planarization end-point. By utilizing a protective layer between the contact pad and the insulating layer, copper out-diffusion can be reduced and the adhesion between the contact pad and the insulating layer may also be improved.

The mechanisms for forming bump structures reduce variation of standoffs between chips and package substrates. By planarizing the solder layer on bump structures on chips and/or substrates after plating, the heights of bump structures are controlled to minimize variation due to within die and within wafer locations, pattern density, die size, and process variation. As a result, the standoffs between chips and substrates are controlled to be more uniform. Consequently, underfill quality is improved.
摘要:
The embodiments described provide apparatus and methods for bonding wafers to carriers with the surface contours of plates facing the substrates or carriers are modified either by re-shaping, by using height adjusters, by adding shim(s), or by zoned temperature control. The modified surface contours of such plates compensate the effects that may cause the non-planarity of bonded substrates.
摘要:
The mechanisms for forming bump structures enable forming bump structures between a chip and a substrate eliminating or reducing the risk of solder shorting, flux residue and voids in underfill. A lower limit can be established for a cc ratio, defined by dividing the total height of copper posts in a bonded bump structure divided by the standoff of the bonded bump structure, to avoid shorting. A lower limit may also be established for standoff the chip package to avoid flux residue and underfill void formation. Further, aspect ratio of a copper post bump has a lower limit to avoid insufficient standoff and a higher limit due to manufacturing process limitation. By following proper bump design and process guidelines, yield and reliability of chip packages may be increases.

A method and structure for good adhesion of Intermetallic Compounds (IMC) on Cu pillar bumps are provided. The method includes depositing Cu to form a Cu pillar layer, depositing a diffusion barrier layer on top of the Cu pillar layer, and depositing a Cu cap layer on top of the diffusion barrier layer, where an intermetallic compound (IMC) is formed among the diffusion barrier layer, the Cu cap layer, and a solder layer placed on top of the Cu cap layer. The IMC has good adhesion on the Cu pillar structure, the thickness of the IMC is controllable by the thickness of the Cu cap layer, and the diffusion barrier layer limits diffusion of Cu from the Cu pillar layer to the solder layer. The method can further include depositing a thin layer for wettability on top of the diffusion barrier layer prior to depositing the Cu cap layer.
摘要:
The mechanisms for forming bumps on packaged dies and package substrates reduce variation of bump heights across the packaged dies and packaged substrates. Bumps are designed to have different widths to counter the higher plating current near edge(s) of dies or substrates. Bump sizes can be divided into different zones depending on the bump patterns and densities across the packaged die and/or substrates. Smaller bumps near edges reduce the thickness of plated film(s), which would have been thicker due to being near the edges. As a result, the bump heights across the packaged dies and/or substrates can be kept significantly constant and chip package can be properly formed.
