Abstract:
A system and method for packaging semiconductor dies is provided. An embodiment comprises a first package with a first contact and a second contact. A post-contact material is formed on the first contact in order to adjust the height of a joint between the contact pad a conductive bump. In another embodiment a conductive pillar is utilized to control the height of the joint between the contact pad and external connections.
Abstract:
Packaging process tools and packaging methods for semiconductor devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a packaging process tool for semiconductor devices includes a mechanical structure including a frame. The frame includes a plurality of apertures adapted to retain a plurality of integrated circuit dies therein. The frame includes at least one hollow region.
Abstract:
Packaging process tools and systems, and packaging methods for semiconductor devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a packaging process tool for semiconductor devices includes a mechanical structure for supporting package substrates or integrated circuit die during a packaging process for the integrated circuit die. The mechanical structure includes a low thermal conductivity material disposed thereon.
Abstract:
A system and method for forming contacts is provided. An embodiment comprises forming the contacts on a substrate and then coining the contacts by physically shaping them using, e.g., a molding chamber. The physical shaping of the contacts may be performed using a patterned portion of the molding chamber or else by placing a patterned stencil around the contacts prior before a force is applied to physically reshape the contacts. The contacts may be reshaped into a cylindrical, oval, cuboid, or rectangular shape, for example.
Abstract:
Packaging methods and structures for semiconductor devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a packaged semiconductor device includes a redistribution layer (RDL) having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. At least one integrated circuit is coupled to the first surface of the RDL, and a plurality of metal bumps is coupled to the second surface of the RDL. A molding compound is disposed over the at least one integrated circuit and the first surface of the RDL.
Abstract:
A method includes providing a substrate carrier including work piece holders, and placing a first plurality of work pieces into the work piece holders. A second plurality of work pieces is picked up and placed, with each of the second plurality of work pieces being placed on one of the first plurality of work pieces. Solder bumps between the first and the second plurality of work pieces are then reflowed to simultaneously bond the first and the second plurality of work pieces together.
Abstract:
The invention provides a warpage-proof circuit board structure, including: an inner layer circuit board; at least one dielectric layer formed on at least one surface of the inner layer circuit board; at least one first groove formed in the at least one dielectric layer corresponding in position thereto; a solder mask formed on the surface of the dielectric layer, a second groove formed in the solder mask and corresponding in position to the first groove formed in the dielectric layer; and a metal frame formed in the first and second grooves and protruding from the surface of the solder mask, thereby strengthening the circuit board to prevent it from warping in thermal processing and further using the metal frame as a heat-dissipating means for the package structure.
Abstract:
A flash memory disk includes a holder, a plug, a housing and a pulling ring. The plug is joined with the holder and exposed out of the holder. The housing has a containing space for accommodating the holder and the plug, wherein two sides opposite to each other respectively have a through sliding groove and the third side of the housing there has an opening. The two arms of the pulling ring have sliding blocks, and the sliding blocks are moveable and matched with the through sliding grooves, wherein the pulling ring is rotated about the axis connecting both the sliding blocks, and when the sliding blocks of the pulling ring is moved, the holder would be located between a first position where the plug is entirely accommodated in the containing space and a second position where the plug is entirely protruded out of the opening.
Abstract:
A wire core of a coaxial cable is tightly bonded with a terminal. A pressing member is used to press the wire core toward the terminal. By doing so, better electrical characteristics are acquired.
