[0111] Afterwards, please also refer to Figure 2Y as well as Figure 2Z , a plurality of solder balls 180 are formed on the surface treatment layer E2 of the solder ball pads SP to electrically connect the solder ball pads SP. Finally, if a temporary carrier 20 is provided, the temporary carrier 20 can be removed to expose the encapsulation colloid 170, wherein the method of removing the temporary carrier 20 is, for example, peeling off the release film 24 to expose the encapsulation colloid 170. At this point, the production of the package structure 100a has been completed.
[0112] In terms of structure, please refer to Figure 2Z, the packaging structure 100a of this embodiment includes a reconfiguration circuit layer RDL, a chip component, a solder ball 180 and a packaging colloid 170. The reconfiguration circuit layer RDL includes a plurality of reconfiguration circuits, a plurality of photosensitive dielectric layers, a plurality of conductive vias and a plurality of chip pads 118, wherein the reconfiguration circuits and the photosensitive dielectric layers are alternately arranged, and the conductive vias penetrate the photosensitive dielectric layers and are electrically connected to the reconfiguration circuits.

The first photosensitive dielectric layer 114 has an upper surface 117, and the chip pad 118 is electrically connected to the first reconfiguration circuit 112 through the first conductive via 116. The second reconfiguration circuit layer 120 includes a second reconfiguration circuit 122, a second photosensitive dielectric layer 124, and a second conductive via 126 penetrating the second photosensitive dielectric layer 124. The second conductive via 126 electrically connects the first reconfiguration circuit 112 and the second reconfiguration circuit 122. The third reconfiguration circuit layer 130 includes a third reconfiguration circuit 132, a third photosensitive dielectric layer 134, a fourth photosensitive dielectric layer 138, and a third conductive via 136 penetrating the third photosensitive dielectric layer 134. The third conductive via 136 electrically connects the second reconfiguration circuit 122 and the third reconfiguration circuit 132. The fourth photosensitive dielectric layer 138 covers the third photosensitive dielectric layer 134 and the third reconfiguration circuit 132 and has an opening 139. The opening 139 exposes a portion of the third reconfiguration circuit 132 to define a solder ball pad SP. Here, the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL is located at the two outermost photosensitive dielectric layers, which are the first photosensitive dielectric layer 114 and the fourth photosensitive dielectric layer 138, respectively, wherein the first photosensitive dielectric layer 114 has an upper surface 117, and the fourth photosensitive dielectric layer 138 has an opening 139.
[0113] In particular, in the present embodiment, the line width and line spacing of the reconfiguration circuit decrease from the solder ball pad SP to the chip pad 118. That is, the line width and line spacing of the third reconfiguration circuit 132 are greater than the line width and line spacing of the second reconfiguration circuit 122, and the line width and line spacing of the second reconfiguration circuit 122 are greater than the line width and line spacing of the first reconfiguration circuit 112. Preferably, the line width and line spacing of the first reconfiguration circuit 112 are, for example, 2 microns, respectively, while the line width and line spacing of the second reconfiguration circuit 122 are, for example, 5 microns, respectively, and the line width and line spacing of the third reconfiguration circuit are, for example, 10 microns, respectively. Furthermore, the thickness T1 of the first reconfiguration circuit 112 is equal to the thickness T2 of the second reconfiguration circuit 122, and the thickness T2 of the second reconfiguration circuit 122 is less than the thickness T3 of the third reconfiguration circuit 132. In addition, the depth D2 of the second conductive via 126 is equal to the depth D3 of the third conductive via 136 , and the depth D1 of the first conductive via 116 is less than the depth D2 of the second conductive via 126 .
[0114] Please refer to Figure 2Z , the chip component is disposed on the chip pad 118 and electrically connected to the chip pad 118, wherein the chip component includes a processor 140 and a memory 150, and the size of the processor 140 is larger than the size of each memory 150. In order to prevent oxidation of the chip pad 118, the package structure 100a of the present embodiment further includes a surface treatment layer E1, which is disposed on the chip pad 118. Furthermore, the package structure 100a of the present embodiment further includes a copper pillar C and a solder S, wherein the copper pillar C is disposed on the chip component and is located between the chip component and the chip pad 118, and the solder S is disposed on the copper pillar C and is located between the copper pillar C and the chip pad 118. The processor 140 and the memory 150 are electrically connected to the chip pad 118 through the copper pillar C, the solder S and the surface treatment layer E1. In order to protect the copper pillars C, the solder S, the surface treatment layer E1 and the chip pads 118, the package structure 100a of the present embodiment may further include an underfill 160 to cover the copper pillars C, the solder S, the surface treatment layer E1 and the chip pads 118. The packaging colloid 170 covers the processor 140, the memory 150 and the underfill 160, wherein the underfill 160 is arranged between the packaging colloid 170 and the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL, and the periphery of the underfill 160 is aligned with the periphery of the packaging colloid 170. Here, the periphery of the packaging colloid 170 is aligned with the periphery of the first reconfiguration circuit layer 110, the periphery of the second reconfiguration circuit layer 120 and the periphery of the third reconfiguration circuit layer 130. In addition, the solder balls 180 are respectively arranged on the solder ball pads SP and electrically connected to the solder ball pads SP.
[0115] In short, in this embodiment, the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL is first formed on the temporary carrier 10, and this temporary carrier 10 is removed after the chip component is configured on the chip pad 118. In other words, the third reconfiguration circuit 132 for subsequently forming the solder ball pad SP is first made, and then the chip pad 118 is formed. Therefore, this embodiment does not require board transfer, and the packaging structure 100a can have better structural reliability. Furthermore, because the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL is formed on the temporary carrier 10, the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL can be very hard and flat, so that the solder S between the chip component and the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL can be reflowed, which can have a higher throughput. In addition, compared to the existing package-on-package (POP), the package structure 100a formed by the chip components and the reconfiguration circuit layer RDL of this embodiment does not require stacking (that is, the processor 140 and the memory 150 can be placed on the same substrate), so it can have a lower production cost, a small package size, and the overall signal transmission path is shortened, resulting in better performance.
[0116] It must be noted that the following embodiments use the same component numbers and some contents of the previous embodiments, wherein the same number is used to represent the same or similar components, and the description of the same technical contents is omitted. The description of the omitted parts can refer to the previous embodiments, and the following embodiments will not be repeated.
[0117] Figure 3 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a packaging structure according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2Z and Figure 3 The packaging structure 100a of this embodiment is similar to the above-mentioned packaging structure 100b, and the difference between the two is that: in this embodiment, a circuit board 190 is also provided below the reconfiguration line layer RDL, wherein the processor 140 and the memory 150 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 190 through the solder balls 180.
[0118] In summary, the present invention first forms the reconfiguration circuit layer on a temporary carrier, and the temporary carrier is removed after the chip component is configured on the chip pad. In other words, the third reconfiguration circuit for subsequently forming the solder ball pad is first made, and then the chip pad is made. Therefore, the present invention does not require a transfer board, and the packaging structure can have better structural reliability. In addition, because the reconfiguration circuit layer is formed on a temporary carrier, the reconfiguration circuit layer can be very hard and flat, so that the solder between the chip component and the reconfiguration circuit layer can be reflowed, which can have a higher throughput.
