AI Technical Summary
In fan-out packaging, the conductive vias of the chip and the redistribution layer are not fully aligned, resulting in low product yield and possible electrical interference.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor packaging technology, and more particularly to a semiconductor packaging device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the fan-out package (Fan-Out Package), according to the order of the redistribution process, it is mainly divided into two types: chip first (ChipFirst) and chip last (ChipLast). In the chip first process, the conductive pillar (Pillar) is first formed at the chip bonding pad (Diepad) and then the bonding (Recon) operation is performed to bond the redistribution layer to the chip. Due to the limitation of Recon accuracy, the chip will be offset (Dieshift), resulting in the conductive holes (Via) of the redistribution layer to be formed on the conductive pillars to be unable to be fully aligned with the conductive pillars. This may result in a lack of connection between the chip's bonding pads and the conductive holes of the redistribution layer, resulting in failure of the fan-out package and low product yield. In addition, since the conductive holes of the redistribution layer are not fully aligned with the conductive pillars, the size of the conductive holes may exceed the docking part, and the current channel formed beyond the docking part may affect the adjacent conductive pillars and generate electrical interference, which will further reduce the product yield.

[0083] In addition, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other without conflict. The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0084] refer to Figure 1A , Figure 1A FIG2 shows a schematic longitudinal cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a semiconductor packaging device 1 a according to the present disclosure.
[0085] like Figure 1A As shown, the semiconductor package device 1 a may include a chip assembly 2 , an adhesive layer 3 and a redistribution layer 4 .
[0086] in:
[0087] The chip assembly 2 includes at least one chip 21 . The active surface of the chip 21 may be provided with a chip electrical connector 211 for connecting the chip 21 to the outside.
[0088] The adhesive layer 3 may be disposed on the chip component 2 and cover the chip component 2. The adhesive layer 3 is used to bond the chip component 2 and the redistribution layer 4.
[0089] The redistribution layer 4 can be provided on the chip component and fixed to the chip component 2 via the adhesive layer 3 .
[0090] The redistribution layer 4 may include a first conductive pillar 41, which passes through the adhesive layer 3 to electrically connect the redistribution layer 4 and the chip electrical connector 211. The perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41 is smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the chip electrical connector 211. Because the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41 is smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the chip electrical connector 211, even if the chip 21 is slightly offset during the bonding process between the first conductive pillar 41 and the chip electrical connector 211, the first conductive pillar 41 can still be bonded to the chip electrical connector 211. This avoids the problem of the packaged device product failing due to the lack of contact between the two, which may occur in existing fan-out packages, and also avoids electrical interference problems that may arise due to the first conductive pillar 41 being offset and closer to adjacent conductive pillars.
[0091] In addition, according to actual needs, various wires, through holes, buried holes or blind holes can be provided in the redistribution layer 4 to achieve circuit connection. It should be noted that the size or direction of the through holes, buried holes or blind holes is not specifically limited here. If through holes, buried holes or blind holes are provided, the through holes, buried holes or blind holes can be filled with conductive materials such as metals or metal alloys, or contain conductive materials such as metals or metal alloys. Here, the metal can be, for example, gold (Au), silver (Ag), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu) or their alloys.
[0092] The chip assembly 2 may include one chip 21 , or may include two or more chips 21 .
[0093] Here, the chip 21 may be a bare die or chip including various semiconductors and / or circuits. The chip 21 may also have various functions, for example, the chip 21 may be a logic chip for implementing logical operations or a memory chip for implementing data storage.
[0094] The technical effects achieved by the semiconductor package device 1a include, but are not limited to, the following: by designing a first conductive pillar in the redistribution layer, wherein the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the surface of the first conductive pillar contacting the chip is smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the chip electrical connector. This ensures that even if the chip shifts slightly during the bonding process between the first conductive pillar and the chip electrical connector, the first conductive pillar can still bond with the chip electrical connector. This avoids the problem of the package device failing due to lack of contact between the two, which can occur in existing fan-out packages, and also avoids electrical interference that may arise from the first conductive pillar shifting closer to adjacent conductive pillars.
[0095] In some optional embodiments, the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 can be larger than the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41. That is, the first conductive pillar 41 is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41 only needs to be smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the chip electrical connector 211, while the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 does not need to be smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the chip electrical connector 211. This can reduce the difficulty of the manufacturing process. Moreover, since the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 is larger, it is also convenient to connect the chip 21 to the outside world through the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 of the redistribution layer 4.
[0096] In some optional embodiments, the ratio of the circumference of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 to the circumference of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41 is between 1 and 25. That is, the circumference of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41 is significantly reduced relative to the circumference of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41, thereby further improving the contact possibility between the first conductive pillar 41 and the chip electrical connector 211, thereby preventing possible deviation of the chip 21 during the bonding process.
[0097] In some optional embodiments, the first conductive column 41 includes a cylindrical conductive column 411 and an inverted frustum conductive column 412 respectively arranged at the upper and lower parts of the first conductive column 41, the diameter of the cylindrical conductive column is larger than the upper surface diameter of the inverted frustum conductive column, and the inverted frustum conductive column is partially embedded in the redistribution layer 4, while the other part is embedded in the adhesive layer 3.
[0098] In some optional implementations, the ratio of the height of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 to the height of the portion of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 embedded in the redistribution layer 4 is between 2 and 20.
[0099] Please refer to Figure 2A , Figure 2A According to some embodiments of the present disclosure Figure 1A An enlarged view of a portion of the dotted circle C1 shown in FIG. Figure 2A As shown, the height of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 is T, and the height of the portion of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 embedded in the redistribution layer 4 is t. The ratio of T to t, T / t, is between 2 and 20. When the first conductive pillar 41 includes a cylindrical conductive pillar 411 and an inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 disposed at the upper and lower portions of the first conductive pillar 41, respectively, the ratio of the circumference of the upper surface of the first conductive pillar 41 to the circumference of the lower surface of the first conductive pillar 41, i.e., the ratio of the diameter D of the cylindrical conductive pillar 411 to the diameter d of the lower surface of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412, is between 1 and 25.
[0100] In some optional embodiments, the diameter D of the cylindrical conductive pillar 411 (eg Figure 2Aand / or, the diameter d of the lower surface of the inverted frustum conductive column 412 (as shown) is 10 microns to 50 microns; Figure 2A shown) is 2 microns to 10 microns.
[0101] In some optional embodiments, the height T of the inverted frustum conductive pillar 412 (eg Figure 2A and / or, the height t of the inverted frustum conductive column 412 embedded in the redistribution layer 4 portion (as shown) is 10 to 40 microns; Figure 2A shown) is 2 to 20 microns.
[0102] In some optional embodiments, the thickness A of the adhesive layer 3 (eg Figure 1A shown) is 40 microns to 150 microns.
[0103] In some optional embodiments, the upper surface of the chip electrical connector 211 has a diameter P (eg Figure 1A For example, the chip electrical connection member 211 may be a circular pad or bonding pad.
[0104] In some optional embodiments, the upper surface diameter P of the chip electrical connector 211 (eg Figure 1A As shown) and the diameter d of the lower surface of the inverted frustum conductive column (as shown Figure 2A The ratio is 5 to 50.
[0105] In some optional embodiments, the exposure angle α (e.g. Figure 2A ) is between 30° and 80°. Here, the exposure angle α is the angle between the busbar of the inverted frustum conductive pillar 412 and the cross-sectional line of the chip electrical connector 211, obtained by sectioning the busbar of the inverted frustum conductive pillar 412 and the chip electrical connector 211. If the exposure angle α is less than 30°, the aperture of the inverted frustum conductive pillar 412 will be too large, resulting in a reduced contact rate between the first conductive pillar 41 and the chip electrical connector 211; if the exposure angle α is greater than 80°, the aperture of the inverted frustum conductive pillar 412 will be too small, and the process difficulty will be very high. An exposure angle α between 30° and 80° can achieve a balance between the two.
[0106] In some optional embodiments, the first conductive pillar 41 has a metal layer 413 and a seed layer 414 surrounding the metal layer 413 . The seed layer 414 may include a copper layer with a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 microns and a titanium layer with a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 microns.
[0107] In some optional embodiments, the semiconductor packaging device 1a may further include: a substrate 1. The adhesive layer 3 and the chip assembly 2 are provided on the substrate 1. Here, the substrate 1 may include circuits therein and / or thereon. The substrate 1 may also include conductive traces. The substrate 1 may also include conductive pads. The substrate 1 may include semiconductor materials. The substrate 1 may also include conductive materials. The substrate 1 may also include insulating materials (such as dielectric materials). The substrate 1 may also include ceramics, bismaleimidetriazine (BT), FR4, prepreg (PP) or other suitable materials. The substrate 1 may also include opaque materials.
[0108] In some optional embodiments, the redistribution layer 4 may further include a second conductive pillar 42. The second conductive pillar 42 may pass through the adhesive layer 3 to electrically connect the redistribution layer 4 and the intra-substrate electrical connector 11 provided on the upper surface of the substrate 1. The perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42 may be smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the intra-substrate electrical connector 11. Since the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the intra-substrate electrical connector 11, even if the substrate 1 is slightly offset during the bonding process between the second conductive pillar 42 and the intra-substrate electrical connector 11, the second conductive pillar 42 can still be bonded to the intra-substrate electrical connector 11. Thus, the problem of the two not being able to contact each other, which may occur in existing fan-out packages, resulting in the failure of the packaged device product, will not occur. Also, the problem of electrical interference that may be caused by the second conductive pillar 42 being offset and close to the adjacent conductive pillars will not occur.
[0109] It should be noted that the second conductive pillar 42 here may also have the various properties and characteristics of the second conductive pillar 42 described above.
[0110] For example, in some optional embodiments, the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42 can be larger than the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42. That is, the second conductive pillar 42 can also be in a shape that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. It is only necessary that the perimeter and / or area of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the electrical connector 11 in the substrate, while the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is not required to be smaller than the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the electrical connector 11 in the substrate. This can reduce the difficulty of the manufacturing process. Moreover, since the perimeter and / or area of the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is larger, it is also convenient to connect the substrate 1 to the outside world through the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42 in the redistribution layer 4.
[0111] In some optional embodiments, the ratio of the circumference of the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42 to the circumference of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is between 1 and 25. That is, the circumference of the lower surface of the second conductive pillar 42 is significantly reduced relative to the circumference of the upper surface of the second conductive pillar 42, thereby further improving the contact possibility between the second conductive pillar 42 and the electrical connector 11 in the substrate, thereby compensating for possible deviation of the substrate 1 during the bonding process.
[0112] In some optional embodiments, the second conductive column 42 may also include a cylindrical conductive column and an inverted frustum conductive column respectively arranged at the upper and lower parts of the second conductive column 42, wherein the diameter of the cylindrical conductive column is larger than the upper surface diameter of the inverted frustum conductive column, and the inverted frustum conductive column is partially embedded in the redistribution layer 4, and the other part is embedded in the adhesive layer 3.
[0113] In some optional embodiments, the ratio of the height of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 of the second conductive pillar 42 to the height of the portion of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar 412 embedded in the redistribution layer 4 is between 2 and 20.
[0114] In some optional embodiments, the ratio of the diameter of the cylindrical conductive pillar in the second conductive pillar 42 to the diameter of the lower surface of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar is between 1 and 25.
[0115] In some optional embodiments, the diameter of the cylindrical conductive pillar in the second conductive pillar 42 is 10 microns to 50 microns; and / or the diameter d of the lower surface of the inverted frustum-shaped conductive pillar in the second conductive pillar 42 is 2 microns to 10 microns.
[0116] In some optional embodiments, the height of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillars in the second conductive pillars 42 is 10 to 40 microns; and / or the height of the portion of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar embedded in the redistribution layer 4 is 2 to 20 microns.
[0117] In some optional embodiments, the upper surface of the intra-substrate electrical connector 11 is circular with a diameter between 10 micrometers and 100 micrometers. For example, the intra-substrate electrical connector 11 can be a circular pad or soldering pad.
[0118] In some optional embodiments, the ratio of the upper surface diameter of the intra-substrate electrical connector 11 to the lower surface diameter of the inverted frustum-shaped conductive pillar in the second conductive pillar 42 is 5 to 50.
[0119] In some optional embodiments, the exposure angle of the second conductive pillar 42 may also be between 30° and 80°. Here, the exposure angle of the second conductive pillar 42 is the angle between the busbar of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar and the cross-section line of the substrate electrical connector 11, obtained by sectioning the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar and the substrate electrical connector 11 along the busbar of the inverted truncated cone conductive pillar of the second conductive pillar 42.
[0120] In some optional embodiments, the second conductive pillar 42 may include a metal layer and a seed layer surrounding the metal layer, wherein the seed layer may include a copper layer with a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 microns and a titanium layer with a thickness of 0.1 to 0.5 microns.
[0121] In some optional embodiments, the semiconductor package device 1a may further include an external substrate electrical connector 12 provided on the lower surface of the substrate 1. The external substrate electrical connector 12 may be, for example, a solder ball, a pad, a bump, or a conductive pillar.
[0122] In some optional embodiments, the semiconductor package device 1a may further include external electrical connectors 5 disposed on the upper surface of the redistribution layer 4. The external electrical connectors 5 may be, for example, various conductive elements such as solder balls, pads, bumps, or conductive pillars.
[0123] In some optional embodiments, the external electrical connector 5 includes a fan-out electrical connector and / or a fan-in electrical connector.
