摘要:
A semiconductor device comprises a substrate comprising a major surface and a plurality of metal bumps on the major surface. Each of the plurality of metal bumps comprises a metal via on the major surface and a metal pillar on the metal via having an overlay offset between the metal pillar and metal via. A first metal bump of the metal bumps has a first overlay offset and a second metal bump of the metal bumps farther than the first metal bump to a centroid of the substrate has a second overlay offset greater than the first overlay offset.
摘要:
A method includes heating a package structure including a first work piece and a second work piece to melt a plurality of solder bumps between the first and the second work pieces; and after the step of heating, allowing the plurality of solder bumps to solidify. During the step of solidifying, a first side of the package structure is maintained at a first temperature higher than a melting temperature of the plurality of solder bumps by using a heating source. During the step of solidifying, a second side of the package structure is maintained at a second temperature lower than the melting temperature by using a cooling source, wherein the second side is opposite the first side.

A method includes forming an electrical connector over a substrate of a wafer, and molding a polymer layer, with at least a portion of the electrical connector molded in the polymer layer. A first sawing step is performed to form a trench in the polymer layer. After the first sawing step, a second sawing step is performed to saw the wafer into a plurality of dies.
摘要:
A die has a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and sidewalls includes a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is closer to the first surface than the second portion. A fillet contacts the first portion of sidewalls of the die and encircles the die. A work piece is bonded to the die through solder bumps, with the second surface facing the work piece. A first underfill is filled a gap between the die and the work piece, wherein the first underfill contacts the fillet, and wherein the first underfill and the fillet are formed of different materials.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses for wafer level packaging (WLP) semiconductor devices are disclosed. A redistribution layer (RDL) is formed on a first passivation layer in contact with a conductive pad over a surface of a die. The RDL layer is on top of a first region of the first passivation layer. A second passivation layer is formed on the RDL layer with an opening to expose the RDL layer, and over the first passivation layer. An under bump metallization (UBM) layer is formed over the second passivation layer in contact with the exposed RDL layer. A second region of the first passivation layer disjoint from the first region is determined by projecting an outer periphery of a solder ball or other connector onto the surface.
