[0068] This embodiment provides a wafer-level packaging method for a MEMS device, such as Figure 1-Figure 24 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0069] S1: A silicon oxide layer 101 is provided on the end surface of the silicon body 102, a first preset area is provided on the end surface of the silicon oxide layer 101, a first metal layer 103 is provided on the first preset area, and a first resin layer 105 is provided around the first metal layer 103;
[0070] S2: The first resin layer 105 is disposed on the carrier 106;
[0071] S3: a second preset area is provided on the end surface of the silicon body 102 which is away from the silicon oxide layer 101, and materials of the silicon body 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 are removed along the periphery of the second preset area, so that the end surface of the first metal layer 103 which is away from the carrier 106 is exposed; a third preset area is provided on the surface of the second preset area of the silicon body 102 and the end surface of the exposed first metal layer 103, and a second metal layer 109 is provided in the third preset area, and the second metal layer 109 is in contact with and connected to the first metal layer 103; a welding bump 111 is provided in a fourth preset area on the second metal layer 109, so as to form a transfer body with the carrier 106;
[0072] S4: The MEMS wafer 2 is bonded to the second metal layer 109 , and the welding bumps 111 are arranged one-to-one correspondingly to the first conductive pillars on the MEMS wafer 2 ;
[0073] S5: removing the carrier 106, bonding the ASIC chip 3 to the first metal layer 103, disposing the first resin layer 105 at the periphery of the fifth preset area and the sixth preset area, and connecting the second conductive pillar 301 on the ASIC chip 3 to the fifth preset area on the first metal layer 103;
[0074] S6: soldering the sixth preset area on the first metal layer 103 to form a wafer-level packaging structure 1000 of the MEMS device.
[0075] A transfer body is manufactured by a wafer-level method, and the ASIC chip 3 and the MEMS wafer 2 are stacked and connected in the longitudinal direction through the transfer body to form a wafer-level packaging structure 1000 of the MEMS device, thereby reducing the volume of the MEMS device; optionally, the wafer-level packaging structure 1000 of the MEMS device is cut to form a packaging structure of a single MEMS device, and as many as tens of thousands of chips are on a single wafer, and packaging is performed at the same time, thereby improving production efficiency; the MEMS wafer 2 and the ASIC chip 3 are respectively connected to the transfer body by a combination of metal bonding and organic material bonding, thereby improving the reliability of the structural connection, and having low manufacturing cost and good sealing; the processing feasibility is high, and the manufacturing method of this embodiment can be applied to the wafer-level packaging structure manufacturing of various MEMS devices such as silicon microphones and pressure sensors. The carrier 106 plays an auxiliary role as an intermediate carrier. When the first metal layer 103 is exposed from the end face of the carrier 106, the silicon body 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 are divided into small units one by one. The carrier 106 is used to connect the small units one by one, so that all the divided silicon body 102 and silicon oxide layer 101 small units can be bonded to the MEMS wafer 2 at the same time to achieve wafer-level packaging.
[0076] Specifically, the production of the adapter includes the following steps:
[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, a silicon body 102 containing a silicon oxide layer 101 is selected. Optionally, the thickness of the silicon body 102 is the original thickness, which is between 600 microns and 800 microns. Afterwards, a first metal layer 103 is arranged on the end surface of the silicon oxide layer 101. The main function of the first metal layer 103 is to prepare for the subsequent circuit. The first metal layer 103 can be an aluminum layer, an aluminum-copper layer, or a titanium-copper layer, etc. The preferred thickness is within 5 microns to avoid excessive thickness that makes the thickness of the packaging structure too large.
[0078] In this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, according to the circuit routing design requirements, a photoresist layer 104 is coated on the first metal layer 103, and then exposed and developed to produce a photoresist pattern matching the circuit routing, and the position corresponding to the photoresist pattern is the first preset area.
[0079] In this embodiment, Figure 3As shown, the first metal layer 103 with the photoresist pattern is etched, and its function is that the area without photoresist shielding can remove the first metal layer 103 at the corresponding position through the chemical reaction of the liquid medicine. The first metal layer 103 in the area shielded by the photoresist is retained, that is, the first metal layer 103 is retained in the first preset area, and this part is the circuit wiring area; through the above steps, the first metal layer 103 is set in the first preset area, which is convenient for setting the first metal layer 103, and can ensure the position and size accuracy of the setting, thereby improving reliability.
[0080] like Figure 4 As shown, after etching, the auxiliary photoresist layer 104 is removed to avoid affecting subsequent manufacturing. To protect the first metal layer 103 and prevent it from being oxidized, optionally, after the first metal layer 103 is set in the first preset area, a first protective layer is set on the first metal layer 103. Specifically, a protective metal layer is further plated on the surface of the first metal layer 103. The protective metal can be nickel-gold or nickel-palladium.
[0081] like Figure 5 As shown, in order to protect the circuit layer from being exposed to the air and to facilitate the operation of the silicon body, the carrier 106 may be provided before the carrier 106 is provided, and a first resin glue layer 105 may be provided at the periphery of the fifth preset area and the periphery of the sixth preset area; specifically, a layer of resin glue having photoresistance is coated on the surface of the first metal layer 103, and the color of the resin glue layer is generally green or black, etc., and then the positions of the fifth preset area and the sixth preset area are opened by exposure and development, so as to facilitate subsequent welding connection and other operations.
[0082] Optionally, after the carrier 106 is arranged near one end of the first metal layer 103, the method further includes removing the material on the end surface of the silicon body 102 away from the silicon oxide layer 101 to reduce the thickness of the silicon body 102 and the thickness of the packaging structure to meet the use requirements.
[0083] Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, temporary bonding of the silicon body 102: In order to reduce the thickness of the silicon body 102 and meet the use requirements, its thickness is generally between 0.05mm-0.2mm. However, this thickness cannot operate normally in the process, so a supporting carrier 106 is added before the silicon body 102 is thinned, and an easily removable glue layer 107 is used to bond the carrier 106 to the silicon body 102.
[0084] like Figure 7 As shown, after the support carrier 106 is provided, the silicon body 102 is thinned. The carrier 106 supports the silicon body 102 to facilitate thinning operations.
[0085] like Figure 8As shown, optionally, a layer of photoresist layer 104 is coated on the surface of the thinned silicon body 102 to form a photoresist layer 104, and the photoresist layer 104 at the peripheral position of the second preset area is removed by exposure and development. The position corresponding to the second preset area is the position where the groove needs to be opened later. After that, after the etching process, the silicon body 102 at the groove position is removed to expose the end face of the silicon oxide layer 101 for subsequent use. Optionally, the angle between the groove wall of the groove and the end face of the silicon oxide layer 101 is 80°-90°, that is, the angle of the silicon body 102 at the removal position is close to 90°, so that the end face of the silicon oxide layer 101 is exposed and convenient for subsequent use. Finally, after the groove process is completed, the auxiliary photoresist layer 104 is removed.
[0086] like Fig. 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the silicon body 102 uses an ordinary silicon wafer, that is, a silicon wafer containing silicon oxide, which has a certain conductivity. After the silicon body 102 is grooved, it also includes setting an insulating layer 108 on the surface of the silicon body 102, that is, laying a layer of insulating material on the surface of the silicon body 102 with a groove structure to prevent direct conduction between the silicon body 102 and the subsequent metal, and the subsequent metal refers to the second metal layer 109, that is, setting the insulating layer 108 between the silicon body 102 and the second metal layer 109. In other embodiments, the silicon body 102 can also use a high-resistance silicon wafer, which has insulation, and the above-mentioned step of setting the insulating layer 108 on the silicon body 102 for passivation can be omitted.
[0087] like Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to transfer the function of the first metal layer 103 to the grooved surface, the insulating layer 108 and the silicon oxide layer 101 at the grooved position are removed in sequence, and this step is completed using a dedicated silicon oxide etching device.
[0088] like Fig.11 As shown, after the silicon oxide layer 101 at the groove position is removed to expose the first metal layer 103 on the back side, a second metal layer 109 is laid on the surface along the groove structure, and the first metal layer 103 and the second metal layer 109 are in contact and connected.
[0089] like Fig.12 As shown, according to the circuit routing design requirements, a photoresist layer 104 is coated on the surface of the second metal layer 109, and then exposed and developed to produce a photoresist pattern matching the circuit routing, and the position corresponding to the photoresist pattern is the third preset area. Fig.13As shown, according to the photoresist pattern, the second metal layer 109 is removed from the area without photoresist on the surface through a chemical reaction of a liquid medicine, and the second metal layer 109 in the area blocked by the photoresist is retained, that is, the second metal layer 109 is retained in the third preset area, and this part is the circuit wiring area; through the above steps, the second metal layer 109 is set in the third preset area, which is convenient for setting the second metal layer 109, and can ensure the position and size accuracy of the setting, thereby improving reliability. Afterwards, the auxiliary photoresist layer 104 is removed.
[0090] Optionally, after the second metal layer 109 is provided in the third preset area, a second protective layer is provided on the second metal layer 109, such as Fig.14 As shown, the second metal layer 109 is protected to prevent oxidation. Specifically, a layer of protective metal is plated on the surface of the second metal layer 109. The metal may be nickel-gold or nickel-palladium.
[0091] Optionally, before setting the solder bump 111, the second resin adhesive layer 110 is also set on the periphery of the fourth preset area to protect the circuit wiring structure from being exposed to the air. Specifically, the fourth preset area is set on the second metal layer 109 or the second protective layer, and the fourth preset area is used for later soldering. Fig.14 As shown, in this embodiment, a layer of resin glue with photoresist properties is coated on the second protective layer, and the position for soldering the solder ball 114 later is opened by exposure and development, and the color of the second resin glue is generally green or black, etc.
[0092] like Fig.15 As shown, a solder bump 111 is set in the fourth preset area on the second metal layer 109. Specifically, solder paste is printed at the opening position of the second resin glue by using a high-temperature furnace to form the solder bump 111. Optionally, continue to refer to Fig.15 While setting a welding bump 111 in the fourth preset area on the second metal layer 109, a solder is set on the periphery of the welding bump 111 to form a sealing ring 112. The sealing ring 112 is spaced apart from the welding bump 111. The setting of the sealing ring 112 strengthens the bonding force between the MEMS wafer 2 and the transfer body. Specifically, the sealing ring 112 is formed by printing solder paste.
[0093] like Figure 16-Figure 18 As shown, optionally, before solder is provided on the periphery of the welding bump 111 to form the sealing ring 112, a dry film is provided on the outer ring of the sealing ring 112, and a dry film is provided between each welding bump 111, and the dry film forms a sealing ring 113, and the sealing ring 113 further strengthens the sealing performance when the subsequent adapter is connected to the MEMS wafer 2. The manufacturing of the adapter is realized through the above specific steps.
[0094] Specifically, the bonding of the transfer body with the carrier 106 and the MEMS wafer 2 includes the following specific steps:
[0095] like Fig.19 As shown, after the welding bumps 111 are aligned one by one with the positions of the conductive pillars on the MEMS wafer 2, the MEMS wafer 2 and the transfer body are bonded together by the sealing ring 112 and the sealing ring 113 in a high temperature manner. The MEMS wafer 2 and the transfer body are bonded simultaneously by metal eutectic and organic adhesive. The metal eutectic bonding realizes the interconnection of electrical signals while sealing by the sealing ring 112 and the sealing ring 113. The sealing ring 112 and the sealing ring 113 tightly bond the upper and lower layers of the MEMS wafer 2 and the transfer body together, thereby enhancing the sealing performance and bonding strength and improving the reliability of the packaging structure.
[0096] Specifically, the bonding of the transfer body with the carrier 106 and the ASIC chip 3 includes the following specific steps:
[0097] like Fig. 20 As shown, after the transfer body is bonded to the MEMS wafer 2, the carrier 106 for auxiliary support and the glue layer 107 for bonding the carrier 106 and for bonding the carrier 106 and the silicon body 102 are removed, thereby exposing the first metal layer 103. In this embodiment, the first protective layer provided on the first metal layer 103 and the first resin glue layer 105 on the first protective layer are exposed.
[0098] like Fig.21 As shown, the second conductive column 301 is firstly welded on the ASIC chip 3, and the second conductive column 301 is arranged corresponding to the fifth preset area. The ASIC chip 3 is attached to the adapter by means of patch.
[0099] like Fig. 22 As shown, specifically, soldering the sixth preset area on the first metal layer 103 includes the following specific steps: printing a layer of solder paste on the sixth preset area, forming solder balls 114 by low-temperature re-melting, and pre-setting the solder balls 114 to facilitate soldering connection with external structures.
