摘要:
A power semiconductor package is disclosed with high inductance rating while exhibiting a reduced foot print. It has a bonded stack of power IC die at bottom, a power inductor at top and a circuit substrate, made of leadframe or printed circuit board, in the middle. The power inductor has a inductor core of closed magnetic loop. The circuit substrate has a first number of bottom half-coil forming conductive elements beneath the inductor core. A second number of top half-coil forming conductive elements, made of bond wires, three dimensionally formed interconnection plates or upper leadframe leads, are located atop the inductor core with both ends of each element connected to respective bottom half-coil forming conductive elements to jointly form an inductive coil enclosing the inductor core. A top encapsulant protectively encases the inductor core, the top half-coil forming conductive elements, the bottom half-coil forming conductive elements and the circuit substrate.

A method for making back-to-front electrical connections in a wafer level chip scale packaging process is disclosed. A wafer containing a plurality of semiconductor chips is mounted on a package substrate. Each semiconductor chip in the plurality includes one or more electrodes on an exposed back side. Scribe lines between two or more adjacent chips on the wafer are removed to form relatively wide gaps. A conductive material is applied to the back side of the semiconductor chips and in the gaps. The conductive material in the gaps between two or more of the chips is then cut through leaving conductive material on the back side and on side walls of the two or more chips. As a result, the conductive material provides an electrical connection from the electrode on the back side of the chip to the front side of the chip.

A method for making thin semiconductor devices is disclosed. Starting from wafer with pre-fabricated front-side devices, the method includes: Thinning wafer central portion from its back-side to produce a thin region while preserving original wafer thickness in the wafer periphery for structural strength. Forming ohmic contact at wafer back-side. Separating and collecting pre-fabricated devices. This further includes: Releasably bonding wafer back-side onto single-sided dicing tape, in turn supported by a dicing frame. Providing a backing plate to match the thinned out wafer central portion. Sandwiching the dicing tape between wafer and backing plate then pressing the dicing tape to bond with the wafer. With a step-profiled chuck to support wafer back-side, the pre-fabricated devices are separated from each other and from the wafer periphery in one dicing operation with dicing depth slightly thicker than the wafer central portion. The separated thin semiconductor devices are then picked up and collected.

A circuit package assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a conductive substrate; a high-side n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (NMOSFET) having a source on a side facing a surface of the conductive substrate and in electrical contact therewith and a low-side standard n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (NMOSFET) having a drain on a side facing the conductive substrate and in electrical contact therewith. Co-packaging of high-side and low-side NMOSFETs in this manner may reduce package size and parasitic inductance and capacitance compared to conventional packaging.

A solder-top enhanced semiconductor device is proposed for packaging. The solder-top device includes a device die with a top metal layer patterned into contact zones and contact enhancement zones. At least one contact zone is electrically connected to at least one contact enhancement zone. Atop each contact enhancement zone is a solder layer for an increased composite thickness thus lowered parasitic impedance. Where the top metal material can not form a uniform good electrical bond with the solder material, the device die further includes an intermediary layer sandwiched between and forming a uniform electrical bond with the top metal layer and the solder layer. A method for making the solder-top device includes: a) Lithographically patterning the top metal layer into the contact zones and the contact enhancement zones. b) Forming a solder layer atop each of the contact enhancement zones using a stencil process for an increased composite thickness.
