Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a bond pad structure includes providing a substrate structure including a substrate, a first metal layer on the substrate, and a passivation layer on the first metal layer, the passivation layer having an opening extending to the first metal layer; and filling the opening of the passivation layer with a second metal layer. The bond pad structure has a significantly increased thickness compared with the thickness of the exposed portion of the first metal layer in the opening, thereby ensuring wire bonding reliability and yield.
Abstract:
The present technology relates to a semiconductor apparatus, a solid state imaging device, an imaging apparatus and electronic equipment which realize a smaller and thinner size and which enable improvement of optical characteristics, and a manufacturing method thereof. A side electrode 16c is formed on a side face of a substrate on which an imaging device 16 is formed. By this side electrode 16c being connected to an electrode pad 15b on the substrate 15 through a chip wiring 17 formed with solder, the imaging device 16 is electrically connected to the substrate 15. By this means, because it is possible to electrically connect the imaging device 16 to the substrate 15 without using wire bonding, space required for wire bonding is not required, so that it is possible to realize a smaller and thinner apparatus. The present technology can be applied to an imaging apparatus.

Abstract:
A conductive structure for a semiconductor chip and a method for forming the conductive structure are provided. The semiconductor chip comprises a semiconductor substrate, a pad, a passivation layer and a patterned insulating layer. The patterned insulating layer is disposed on the passivation layer and partially and directly covers the first opening of the pad to expose a second opening. The conductive structure comprises an under bump metal (UBM) layer and a conductive bump. The UBM layer is disposed in the second opening defined by the patterned insulating layer and is electrically connected to the pad. The conductive bump is disposed on the UBM layer and is electrically connected to the UBM layer. The upper surface of the conductive bump is greater than the upper surface of the patterned insulating layer, while the portion of the conductive bump disposed in the second opening is covered by the UBM layer.
Abstract:
In a semiconductor device, an organic insulation pattern is disposed between first and second rerouting patterns. The organic insulation pattern may absorb the physical stress that occurs when the first and second rerouting patterns expand under heat. Since the organic insulation pattern is disposed between the first and second rerouting patterns, insulating properties can be increased relative to a semiconductor device in which a semiconductor pattern is disposed between rerouting patterns. Also, since a seed layer pattern is disposed between the first and second rerouting patterns and the organic insulation pattern and between the substrate and the organic insulation pattern, the adhesive strength of the first and second rerouting patterns is enhanced. This also reduces any issues with delamination. Also, the seed layer pattern prevents the metal that forms the rerouting pattern from being diffused to the organic insulation pattern. Therefore, a semiconductor device with enhanced reliability may be implemented.
