Abstract:
A semiconductor device has integrated passive circuit elements. A first substrate is formed on a backside of the semiconductor device. The passive circuit element is formed over the insulating layer. The passive circuit element can be an inductor, capacitor, or resistor. A passivation layer is formed over the passive circuit element. A carrier is attached to the passivation layer. The first substrate is removed. A non-silicon substrate is formed over the insulating layer on the backside of the semiconductor device. The non-silicon substrate is made with glass, molding compound, epoxy, polymer, or polymer composite. An adhesive layer is formed between the non-silicon substrate and insulating layer. A via is formed between the insulating layer and first passivation layer. The carrier is removed. An under bump metallization is formed over the passivation layer in electrical contact with the passive circuit element. A solder bump is formed on the under bump metallization.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a substrate with an inductor formed on its surface. First and second contact pads are formed on the substrate. A passivation layer is formed over the substrate and first and second contact pads. A protective layer is formed over the passivation layer. The protective layer is removed over the first contact pad, but not from the second contact pad. A conductive layer is formed over the first contact pad. The conductive layer is coiled on the surface of the substrate to produce inductive properties. The formation of the conductive layer involves use of a wet etchant. The second contact pad is protected from the wet etchant by the protective layer. The protective layer is removed from the second contact pad after forming the conductive layer over the first contact pad. An external connection is formed on the second contact pad.

A semiconductor device has a first conductive layer formed over a substrate. A first insulating layer is formed over the substrate and first conductive layer. A second conductive layer is formed over the first conductive layer and first insulating layer. A second insulating layer is formed over the first insulating layer and second conductive layer. The second insulating layer has a sidewall between a surface of the second insulating material and surface of the second conductive layer. A protective layer is formed over the second insulating layer and surface of the second conductive layer. The protective layer follows a contour of the surface and sidewall of the second insulating layer and second conductive layer. A bump is formed over the surface of the second conductive layer and a portion of the protective layer adjacent to the second insulating layer. The protective layer protects the second insulating layer.
