Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor packaging, in particular to a method for manufacturing a package substrate with embedded components. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous development of the electronic industry, multifunction and miniaturization of electronic products have become a development trend. In the field of packaging substrates, embedding components into the interior of the substrate can help electronic products achieve the needs of high integration, multifunction and miniaturization.
[0003] In existing embedding technologies for packaging substrates, there are cavity technologies and cavity-free technologies. The cavity technology requires first making a cavity on the substrate, then placing the components into the cavity, and finally packaging and building up layers. The cavity-free technology directly mounts the components on the surface of the substrate or carrier board, and then packages and builds up layers.
[0004] In the cavity technology, the size and position accuracy of the cavity are limited by equipment and process methods, and the cost is relatively high. In existing cavity-free technologies, the common manufacturing method is to first manufacture a substrate, then single-sidedly attach components on the surface of the substrate, and finally compress the resin medium for packaging and manufacture the circuit. Or, first package the components on a carrier board, and then build up layers one by one on the surface thereof.
[0005] Both the cavity technology and the cavity-free technology are asymmetric in structure, and are asymmetrically manufactured. Due to the difference in CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) between materials, especially when the resin medium is cured, stress imbalance occurs, resulting in substrate warping.
[0006] In addition, both the cavity technology and the cavity-free technology build up layers after packaging, and the scrap generated in the post-process directly leads to the loss of embedded components. The more the number of layers and the denser the circuit, the higher the yield loss, and the greater the loss of components. SUMMARY

[0059] With reference to Figures 1(a)-1(u) Fig. 1 shows a cross-sectional schematic view of the intermediate structure of each step of the manufacturing method of the embedded component packaging substrate according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0060] The manufacturing method comprises the following steps: manufacturing a semi-finished substrate and forming a first rivet hole penetrating the semi-finished substrate in the height direction - step a, as shown in Fig. 1(a). The semi-finished substrate comprises a first dielectric layer 101, a second dielectric layer 102 and a third dielectric layer 103 arranged in sequence in the longitudinal direction. The first rivet hole penetrates the first dielectric layer 101, the second dielectric layer 102 and the third dielectric layer 103 in the height direction, which can be drilled by a CCD drilling target machine or an X-Ray drilling target machine.
[0061] It should be noted that since the rivet hole itself is not part of the product, it only plays a role in fixing and positioning the substrate during the processing, and the rivet hole is arranged on the waste edge, so it is not shown in the drawings.
[0062] The first dielectric layer 101 includes a second circuit layer 1011 located in the lower surface of the first dielectric layer 101, a first conductive copper pillar layer 1012 located on the second circuit layer 1011, and a first circuit layer 1013 provided on the upper surface of the first dielectric layer 101, wherein the first circuit layer 1013 and the second circuit layer 1011 are conductively connected through the first conductive copper pillar layer 1012.

[0064] The third dielectric layer 103 includes a third circuit layer 1031 located in the upper surface of the third dielectric layer 103, a third conductive copper pillar layer 1032 located on the third circuit layer 1031, and a fourth circuit layer 1033 provided on the lower surface of the third dielectric layer 103, wherein the second circuit layer 1011 and the third circuit layer 1031 are conductively connected through the second conductive copper pillar layer 1022, and the third circuit layer 1031 and the fourth circuit layer 1033 are conductively connected through the third conductive copper pillar layer 1032.
[0065] Generally, the end of the conductive copper pillar layer can be higher than the dielectric layer or flush with the dielectric layer.
[0066] The substrate mentioned in the present embodiment can be a coreless semi-finished substrate or a core semi-finished substrate, which can be selected as needed. The number of dielectric layers included in the semi-finished substrate is not limited to three layers, and the subsequent process is only demonstrated with a semi-finished substrate including three dielectric layers.
[0067] Optionally, the semi-finished substrate can be made by tenting process, MSAP process or SAP process, and the multi-layer dielectric layer can be prepared by Coreless technology or conventional CCL lamination technology, and the interlayer conductive mode can be copper pillar conductive, laser hole conductive or mechanical hole conductive, etc., which is not limited.
[0068] Next, a temporary support plate is prepared - step b, as shown in FIG. 1(b).
[0069] Optionally, the temporary support plate in the present embodiment can be a copper-clad plate with at least one double-layer copper foil, wherein the copper-clad plate includes a core layer 1041, a first copper layer 1042 on the surface of the core layer 1041, and a second copper layer 1043 on the first copper layer 1042, wherein the first copper layer 1042 and the second copper layer 1043 are attached together by physical pressing, the copper-clad plate can be removed by simply separating the first copper layer 1042 and the second copper layer 1043, and the second copper layer 1043 can be removed by etching. Preferably, the thickness of the first copper layer 1042 is 18 μm, and the thickness of the second copper layer 1043 is 3 μm.
[0070] Optionally, the core layer 1041 can be selected from PP, metal or glass. Preferably, the core layer 1041 is a PP dielectric layer with a thickness greater than or equal to 200 μm.

[0071] Then, a die attach layer 1044 is applied on the upper surface of the second copper layer 1043—step c, as shown in Fig. 1(c). Typically, the die attach layer 1044 has a thickness of 10-40 μm, and can be applied on the upper surface of the second copper layer 1043 by dispensing or by attaching a DAF.

If the copper foil layer 1061 is not formed on the upper surface of the encapsulation layer 106, the encapsulation layer 106 will be severely rolled after the first copper layer 1042 and the second copper layer 1043 are physically separated, which is not conducive to subsequent processing.
[0076] Typically, after the encapsulation layer 106 and the copper foil layer 1061 are formed, they can be pressed and cured on a press.

[0090] After step a, the sacrificial substrate 104 is prepared, and the thermal release adhesive layer 1045 is laminated on the upper surface of the sacrificial substrate 104—step m, as shown in FIG. 1(m).
[0091] Optionally, the sacrificial substrate 104 can be a glass substrate or a metal substrate, such as a copper plate, an aluminum plate, a stainless steel plate, or an aluminum alloy plate, etc.
[0092] Next, the terminal surface of the device 105 is attached to the thermal release adhesive layer 1045—step n, as shown in FIG. 1(n).

[0094] Generally, the packaging layer 106 can be selected from one or a combination of PP, ABF, and PID.
[0095] After the packaging layer 106 is formed, the packaging layer 106 can be heated and cured. Then, a CCD drill target machine or an X-Ray drill target machine is used to drill a riveting alignment hole in the subsequent process, so as to facilitate the alignment of the semi-finished substrate and the embedded device layer.
[0096] When the packaging layer 106 is heated and cured, the thermal release adhesive layer 1045 will also become low-adhesion due to heating, and the peeling between the thermal release adhesive layer 1045 and the packaging layer 106 can be easily achieved.
