摘要:
According to an embodiment, an integrated circuit package comprises a chip, a thermal component, and a molding compound. The chip comprises an active surface and a backside surface opposite the active surface. The thermal component is physically coupled to the backside surface of the chip. The molding compound encapsulates the chip, and an exposed surface of the thermal component is exposed through the molding compound. Another embodiment is a method to form an integrated circuit package.

An enhanced wafer level chip scale packaging (WLCSP) copper electrode post is described having one or more pins that protrude from the top of the electrode post. When the solder ball is soldered onto the post, the pins are encapsulated within the solder material. The pins not only add shear strength to the soldered joint between the solder ball and the electrode post but also create a more reliable electrical connection due to the increased surface area between the electrode post/pin combination and the solder ball. Moreover, creating an irregularly shaped solder joint retards the propagation of cracks that may form in the intermetal compounds (IMC) layer formed at the solder joint.

A method for fabricating a semiconductor package is provided. In one embodiment, a semiconductor chip having a plurality of exposed conductive layers thereon is provided. A first substrate having a first surface and a second surface is provided, the first surface having a plurality of exposed via plugs thereunder. The semiconductor chip is bonded to the first substrate, wherein the plurality of exposed conductor layers are aligned and in contact with the surfaces of the exposed via plugs. A portion of the second surface of the first substrate is then removed to expose the opposite ends of the plurality of via plugs. A plurality of UBM layers is formed on the surfaces of the opposite ends of the plurality of via plugs. A plurality of solder bumps is formed and mounted on the UBM layers. A second substrate having a first surface and a second surface is provided, the solder bumps being mounted to the first surface of the second substrate. A plurality of solder balls is formed and mounted to the second surface of the second substrate. A third substrate is mounted to the solder balls.
摘要:
Protection of a solder ball joint is disclosed in which the solder ball joint is located below the surface level of the encapsulating buffer layer. The buffering layer is etched to expose one or more electrode posts, each of which may be made up of a single column or multiple columns. A top layer resulting either from a top conductive cap or a plating layer around the electrode posts also lies below the buffer layer. When the solder ball is placed onto the posts, the solder/ball joint is protected in a position below the surface of the buffer layer, while still maintaining an electrical connection between the various solder balls and their associated or capping/plating material, electrode posts, wiring layers, and circuit layers. Therefore, the entire ball joint is protected from direct stress.
