A method and device comprising an easily reworkable alpha particle barrier is provided. The easily reworkable alpha particle barrier is applied in the space between the surface of the chip and the surface of the substrate, and reduces soft error rate (SER). Further, the easily reworkable alpha particle barrier material is chosen from the group of an organic material, a hydrocarbon, more specifically a polyalphaolefin (PAO) oil, and a polymer or filled polymer; wherein the polyalphaolefin oil has a viscosity below 1000 cSt (at 100° C.). The easily reworkable alpha particle barrier material can be used with multichip modules (MCM's) allowing easy device rework of one or more dies without affecting other dies on the same substrate.

A tamper resistant, integrated circuit (IC) module includes a ceramic-based chip carrier, one or more integrated circuit chips attached to the chip carrier, and a cap structure attached to the chip carrier, covering the one or more integrated circuit chips. A conductive grid structure is formed in the chip carrier and cap structure, the conductive structure having a plurality of meandering lines disposed in an x-direction, a y-direction, and a z-direction. The conductive grid structure is configured so as to detect an attempt to penetrate the IC module.

An integrated circuit structure and a method of manufacturing, wherein the method comprises forming a first via in an interconnect layer of the substrate, wherein the first via comprises a first size diameter; and forming a second via in the interconnect layer, wherein the second via comprises a second size diameter, the second size diameter being dimensioned larger than the first size diameter, wherein the second via comprises a non-uniform circumference, and wherein the substrate is configured in an approximately 1:1 ratio (i.e., approximately equal number) of the first and second vias. The first and second vias are laser formed or are formed by any of mechanical punching and photolithography. The second via is formed by sequentially forming multiple partially overlapping vias dimensioned and configured with the first size diameter. The first and second vias are arranged in a grid to allow for wiring of electronic devices.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method for producing a temporary chip carrier for semiconductor chip burn-in test and speed sorting. A multi-layered substrate or card, usually comprised of one of various materials is made by offsetting the conductor-filled vias or holes in the outer few layers with the outer most layer not being filled with a conductor, such that a partially filled via or hole is produced. This effectively produces a smaller surface conductor feature, on which the semiconductor chip is temporarily attached, electrically tested, and subsequently removed using various methods, at forces much lower than normal chip removal processes require.

摘要:
A chip package including a chip extension for containing thermal interface material (TIM) and improves chip cooling, and a related method, are disclosed. In particular, the chip package includes a chip, a cooling structure coupled to the chip via a TIM, and a chip extension may be thermally coupled to an outer edge of the chip. A TIM placed between the chip and the cooling structure is contained during thermal cycling by the chip extension such that void formation at the edge of the chip, which can move between the chip and cooling structure, is suppressed. The chip extension also improves lateral heat dissipation by providing a greater thermal contact area between the cooling structure and the chip and, if needed, the substrate at a much lower cost than using larger die with lower production unit output from a wafer.
