Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of chip packaging, specifically relating to a chip packaging structure and a chip packaging method. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread application and rapid development of mobile terminals and consumer electronics products, chip size is gradually decreasing, while better heat dissipation is required to meet the demands of fast charging. This necessitates smaller, thinner, lighter circuit chips, higher current handling, lower on-resistance, and better heat dissipation.

[0003] However, since external electrical connections are provided using leadframe pins, additional pin space is required, increasing the original chip area by at least 20%. Internal electrical connections using metal wires within the packaged chip are difficult to guarantee high current handling, low on-resistance, and also limit heat dissipation. In other circuit chips, flip-chip bonding to leadframes provides high current capability, but the leadframes still require additional pin space, resulting in a larger package area.

[0004] The inventors discovered that existing packaging solutions still have at least the following drawbacks: before the IC chip is bonded to the circuit board, the adhesive between the two is prone to displacement, affecting the chip packaging effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] One of the objectives of this invention is to provide a chip packaging structure that addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies, thereby fixing the position of the solid adhesive and preventing it from shifting before the IC chip is bonded to the circuit board, thus improving the chip packaging effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A chip packaging structure includes a circuit board and an IC chip mounted on the circuit board. A first solder paste is disposed on the surface of the circuit board, surrounding or below the IC chip. A solid adhesive is disposed on the first solder paste for bonding the IC chip to the circuit board.

[0008] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, the circuit board and the surface corresponding to the IC chip are uniformly provided with a plurality of grooves, and the grooves are provided with a second solder paste.

[0009] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, at least a portion of the grooves form a matrix.

[0010] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, the circuit board is further provided with a plurality of wires, and at least a portion of the grooves are electrically connected to the wires.

[0011] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, the solid adhesive is spaced around the circuit board and the IC chip.

[0012] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, a portion of the solid adhesive extends to the inner and / or outer side of the IC chip.

[0013] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, the solid adhesive located at or below the corner of the IC chip forms a strip structure.

[0014] As an improvement to the chip packaging structure described in this invention, the first solder paste is in the shape of dots or strips, and the solid adhesive is in the shape of strips or sheets.

[0015] The second objective of this invention is to provide a chip packaging method, comprising:

[0016] The first solder paste is printed on the circuit board such that it surrounds or is placed under the IC chip.

[0017] Place the solid adhesive on top of the first solder paste;

[0018] During reflow soldering, the solid adhesive is heated, melted, and cured, causing a portion of the solid adhesive to extend to the inside of the IC chip and another portion to extend to the outside of the IC chip.

[0019] It should be noted that in the packaging method of the present invention, a printing press is used to print the first solder paste on the circuit board, surrounding the surface of the circuit board corresponding to the IC chip or located below the IC chip. The first solder paste can be printed in dots and is used to fix the solid adhesive. A pick-and-place machine is used to fix the strip of solid adhesive onto the first solder paste. Finally, reflow soldering is performed, heating the solid adhesive to melt it, with some flowing into the bottom of the IC chip. The solid adhesive solidifies, with some extending to the inner side of the IC chip and another part extending to the outer side of the IC chip, filling the gap between the IC chip and the circuit board, enabling the IC chip to bond to the circuit board, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the IC chip and the circuit board, and helping to improve the quality of the finished product. The first solder paste and the second solder paste can be pre-printed on the circuit board. An optical inspection device is used to determine whether the positions of the first solder paste and the second solder paste are accurate. Then, solid adhesive is placed on top of the first solder paste, and finally the IC chip is soldered onto the circuit board. The first solder paste serves to fix the solid adhesive, and the second solder paste is used to solder the IC chip onto the circuit board.

[0020] As an improvement to the chip packaging method described in this invention, the maximum temperature of the reflow soldering is 180℃~270℃.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention includes a circuit board and an IC chip mounted on the circuit board. A first solder paste is disposed on the surface of the circuit board, surrounding or below the IC chip. A solid adhesive is disposed on the first solder paste, used to bond the IC chip to the circuit board. Since the adhesive between the IC chip and the circuit board is prone to displacement before bonding, affecting the chip packaging effect, the circuit board surface is provided with a first solder paste, on which a solid adhesive is disposed. The first solder paste can be printed on the surface of the circuit board using a printer, surrounding the surface of the circuit board corresponding to the IC chip, or disposed below the IC chip. During reflow soldering, the solid adhesive melts upon heating, partially flowing into the IC chip to bond the IC chip to the circuit board, reducing the probability of poor soldering between the IC chip and the circuit board. The solid adhesive is solid and has a multi-layered structure. Since the solid adhesive itself is not adhesive, it is placed on the first solder paste, which acts as a fixative for the solid adhesive. During chip packaging, the heated and melted solid adhesive... The adhesive material bonds the IC chip to the circuit board and fills the gap between the IC chip and the circuit board, improving the mechanical properties of the packaging structure, firmly fixing the IC chip, and preventing displacement due to mechanical vibration during use. This contributes to improving the battery cell packaging effect and extending the lifespan of electronic products. The gap between the IC chip and the circuit board is not limited to the edge of the IC chip; since some IC chips are not soldered to the circuit board in the center, a gap also exists. Therefore, the surfaces of the circuit board corresponding to the center of the IC chip can be coated with a first solder paste and a solid adhesive. The first solder paste can be printed in dots, and its size can be adjusted according to the actual size of the circuit board to fix the solid adhesive. This invention can fix the position of the solid adhesive, preventing displacement before the IC chip is bonded to the circuit board, thus improving the chip packaging effect.

[0028] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figures 1-2As shown, a chip packaging structure includes a circuit board 1 and an IC chip 2 mounted on the circuit board 1. A first solder paste 31 is provided on the surface of the circuit board 1. The first solder paste 31 is disposed around the IC chip 2 or below the IC chip 2. A solid adhesive 4 is disposed on the first solder paste 31. The solid adhesive 4 is used to bond the IC chip 2 to the circuit board 1. Because the adhesive between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1 is prone to displacement before bonding, affecting the chip packaging effect, a first solder paste 31 is applied to the surface of circuit board 1, and a solid adhesive 4 is applied to the first solder paste 31. The first solder paste 31 can be printed on the surface of circuit board 1 using a printer, surrounding the surface of circuit board 1 corresponding to IC chip 2, or placed below IC chip 2. During reflow soldering, the solid adhesive 4 melts upon heating, and some flows into IC chip 2 to bond IC chip 2 to circuit board 1, reducing the probability of poor soldering between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1. The solid adhesive 4 is solid and has a multi-layered structure. Since the solid adhesive 4 itself is not adhesive, it is placed on the first solder paste 31, which serves to fix the solid adhesive 4. During chip packaging, the solid adhesive 4 melts upon heating. The adhesive 4 has adhesive properties, bonding the IC chip 2 to the circuit board 1. It also fills the gap between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1, which helps improve the mechanical performance of the packaging structure, firmly fixes the IC chip 2, and prevents the IC chip 2 from shifting due to mechanical vibration during use. This helps improve the effect of cell packaging and extend the service life of electronic products. The gap between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1 is not limited to the edge of the IC chip 2. Since some IC chips 2 are not soldered to the center of the circuit board 1, there is also a certain gap. Therefore, the surfaces of the circuit board 1 and the center of the IC chip 2 can also be provided with the first solder paste 31 and the solid adhesive 4. The first solder paste 31 can be printed in the form of dots, and the size of the first solder paste 31 can be adjusted according to the actual size of the circuit board 1 to achieve the effect of fixing the solid adhesive 4.

[0031] Preferably, the surfaces of the circuit board 1 and the IC chip 2 are uniformly provided with a plurality of grooves 21, and the grooves 21 are provided with second solder paste 32. During the reflow soldering process, the second solder paste 32 in the grooves 21 on the surface of the circuit board 1 melts to form pads, allowing the IC chip 2 to be electrically connected to the circuit board 1 through the pads, thereby soldering the IC chip 2 to the circuit board 1. This simplifies the production process and improves the installation efficiency of the circuit board 1 and the IC chip 2. The grooves 21 are circular in shape, but are not limited thereto. The shape and depth of the grooves 21 can be adjusted according to the actual production process requirements.

[0032] Preferably, at least a portion of the grooves 21 form a matrix. The central groove 21 forms a square matrix, and the grooves 21 surrounding this square matrix also form another square matrix, and so on. The size of each square matrix can be adjusted according to the actual circuit of the IC chip 2, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The grooves 21 can also form a circular, elliptical matrix or a hollow rectangle.

[0033] Preferably, the circuit board 1 is further provided with a plurality of wires, and at least a portion of the grooves 21 are electrically connected to the wires. The grooves 21 are electrically connected to the wires, and the grooves 21 are electrically connected to the IC chip 2 through reflow soldering, thereby realizing the connection between the IC chip 2 and the corresponding wires, and thus realizing the function of the circuit.

[0034] Preferably, the solid adhesive 4 is spaced around the circuit board 1 and the IC chip 2. This spaced arrangement of the solid adhesive 4 around the circuit board 1 and the IC chip 2 reduces the cost of the solid adhesive 4 and ensures the reliability of the connection between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1.

[0035] Preferably, a portion of the solid adhesive 4 extends to the inner and / or outer side of the IC chip 2. The solid adhesive 4 softens and flows along the IC chip 2, with some of it flowing into the inner side of the IC chip 2 but not contacting the pads of the circuit board 1. This does not hinder the IC chip 2 from being soldered to the circuit board 1, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1. It also fills the gap between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1, acting as a buffer.

[0036] Preferably, the solid adhesive 4 located at or below the corners of the IC chip 2 forms a strip structure. Using several strip-shaped solid adhesive 4s placed at or below the corners of the IC chip 2 can reduce the amount of solid adhesive 4 used, thereby reducing the cost of solid adhesive 4 and ensuring the reliability of the connection between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1. The several strip-shaped solid adhesive 4s can be arranged in a circle or rectangle according to process requirements, and adjacent solid adhesive 4s are spaced apart.

[0037] Preferably, the first solder paste 31 is in the shape of dots, and the solid adhesive 4 is in the shape of strips. By designing the first solder paste 31 to be in the shape of dots and the solid adhesive 4 to be in the shape of strips, the solid adhesive 4 is placed on the dots formed by the first solder paste 31. It is only necessary to ensure that the solid adhesive 4 is fixed on 2 to 3 dots formed by the first solder paste 31. The solid adhesive 4 can be pre-formed and then attached to the dots formed by the first solder paste 31 by a pick and place machine.

[0038] The working principle of this invention is:

[0039] Because the adhesive between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1 is prone to displacement before bonding, affecting the chip packaging effect, a first solder paste 31 is applied to the surface of circuit board 1, and a solid adhesive 4 is applied to the first solder paste 31. The first solder paste 31 can be printed on the surface of circuit board 1 using a printer, surrounding the surface of circuit board 1 corresponding to IC chip 2, or placed below IC chip 2. During reflow soldering, the solid adhesive 4 melts upon heating, and some flows into IC chip 2 to bond IC chip 2 to circuit board 1, reducing the probability of poor soldering between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1. The solid adhesive 4 is solid and has a multi-layered structure. Since the solid adhesive 4 itself is not adhesive, it is placed on the first solder paste 31, which serves to fix the solid adhesive 4. During chip packaging, the solid adhesive 4 melts upon heating. The adhesive 4 has adhesive properties, bonding the IC chip 2 to the circuit board 1. It also fills the gap between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1, which helps improve the mechanical performance of the packaging structure, firmly fixes the IC chip 2, and prevents the IC chip 2 from shifting due to mechanical vibration during use. This helps improve the effect of cell packaging and extend the service life of electronic products. The gap between the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1 is not limited to the edge of the IC chip 2. Since some IC chips 2 are not soldered to the center of the circuit board 1, there is also a certain gap. Therefore, the surfaces of the circuit board 1 and the center of the IC chip 2 can also be provided with the first solder paste 31 and the solid adhesive 4. The first solder paste 31 can be printed in the form of dots, and the size of the first solder paste 31 can be adjusted according to the actual size of the circuit board 1 to achieve the effect of fixing the solid adhesive 4.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Unlike Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, a portion of the solid adhesive 4 extends to the inner or outer side of the IC chip 2. The first solder paste 31 is strip-shaped, and the solid adhesive 4 is sheet-shaped. Depending on actual production needs, the first solder paste 31 can be designed as a strip to increase the contact area between the first solder paste 31 and the solid adhesive 4, thus achieving better fixation of the solid adhesive 4. The solid adhesive 4 can be designed as a sheet to increase the contact area between the first solder paste 31 and the solid adhesive 4, thereby improving the reliability between them.

[0042] The other structures are the same as in Example 1, and will not be described again here.

[0043] Example 3

[0044] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a chip packaging method includes:

[0045] The first solder paste 31 is printed on the circuit board 1, such that the first solder paste 31 surrounds or is below the IC chip 2;

[0046] Place solid adhesive 4 on top of the first solder paste 31;

[0047] Through reflow soldering, the solid adhesive 4 is heated, melted, and cured, so that a portion of the solid adhesive 4 extends to the inside of the IC chip 2, and another portion of the solid adhesive 4 extends to the outside of the IC chip 2.

[0048] It should be noted that in the packaging method of the present invention, a printing press is used to print the first solder paste 31 onto the circuit board 1, surrounding the surface of the circuit board 1 corresponding to the IC chip 2 or located below the IC chip 2. The first solder paste 31 can be printed in dots, and the first solder paste 31 is used to fix the solid adhesive 4. A pick-and-place machine is used to fix the strip-shaped solid adhesive 4 onto the first solder paste 31. Finally, reflow soldering is performed, heating the solid adhesive 4 to melt it, with some flowing into the bottom of the IC chip 2. The solid adhesive 4 solidifies, with some extending to the inner side of the IC chip 2 and another part extending to the outer side of the IC chip 2, thus serving to... Filling the gap between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1 allows IC chip 2 to be bonded to circuit board 1, ensuring the reliability of the connection between IC chip 2 and circuit board 1 and helping to improve the quality of the finished product. The first solder paste 31 and the second solder paste 32 can be pre-printed on circuit board 1. The position of the first solder paste 31 and the second solder paste 32 is judged by an optical detection device to determine whether they are accurate. Then, solid adhesive 4 is placed on top of the first solder paste 31. Finally, IC chip 2 is soldered onto circuit board 1. The first solder paste 31 serves to fix the solid adhesive 4, and the second solder paste 32 is used to solder IC chip 2 onto circuit board 1.

[0049] Preferably, the maximum reflow soldering temperature is 180℃~270℃. Limiting the maximum reflow soldering temperature prevents excessively high temperatures from increasing production costs and affecting the physical properties of the second solder paste 32 and solid adhesive 4. At the same time, it prevents excessively low temperatures from causing some of the second solder paste 32 to remain solid, which is not conducive to the soldering of the second solder paste 32 to the IC chip 2 and the circuit board 1.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and any obvious improvements, substitutions, or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of explanation and do not constitute any limitation on the present invention.
