AI Technical Summary
Existing chip packaging structures are prone to instability when temperatures change, especially due to the thermal expansion of the filler, which can cause the connection between the chip and the substrate to detach or become unstable, and may even lead to chip deformation.
By creating a cavity structure between the chip and the substrate, and using filler to cover the area between the chip device and the substrate, a cavity is formed to prevent the filler from expanding due to heat, thereby improving the stability of the chip packaging structure.
This effectively avoids the instability of the chip packaging structure caused by the thermal expansion of the filler, and improves the thermal stability and reliability of the chip packaging.

[0064] For a thorough understanding of the present application, reference should be made to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
[0065] The present application relates to chip packaging technical field, specifically relates to a chip packaging structure and chip module. The inventor finds that when there are multiple chip devices in the current chip packaging structure, some chip devices (such as chip devices with filtering function) need cavities, and other chip devices do not need cavities, and the filling material often fills the area between the chip devices and the substrate, but during chip aging test or working process, the temperature rise will cause the filling material to expand due to heat, so that the connection between the chip and the substrate falls off or the contact is unstable, and even causes the chip to deform. In order to solve the above problems, therefore, the present application has the inventive concept, which will be illustrated by the following embodiments:
[0066] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application can be applied to the packaging structure of multiple non-filtering function chip devices, and can also be applied to the packaging structure of the chip module, which includes chip devices with filtering function and non-filtering function.
[0067] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a chip packaging structure provided by the embodiments of the present application. The chip packaging structure shown in the figure includes a substrate 1, a first chip device 2, a second chip device 3 and a filling material 4.
[0068] Among them, the substrate 1 can adopt resin, ceramic, quartz or other types of substrate, and the present embodiment is not limited. One side of the substrate 1 is provided with a first bearing structure 11 and a plurality of pads 12. The bearing structure 11 has at least two windows, and the pads 12 are located in the at least two windows. The opening direction of the window can be perpendicular to the substrate 1, or can have a certain angle with the substrate 1, and the present embodiment is not limited. The pads 12 can be embedded in the substrate 1, or can be arranged on the surface of the substrate 1, and the present embodiment is not limited. The pads 12 can be metal or alloy, and the metal can be nickel, palladium, molybdenum, tungsten, ruthenium, gold, magnesium, aluminum, copper, chromium, titanium, osmium, iridium, etc. The pads 12 are connected to external or internal lines through the wiring (not shown in the figure) on the substrate 1.
[0069] Specifically, the first bearing structure 11 can be a structure formed on the substrate 1 by a material with good formability and good solder resistance, or it can be a solder mask layer structure of the substrate 1, such as resin, solder mask green paint, dry film, etc., and the present embodiment is not limited.
[0070] In the embodiment, the first chip device 2 includes a first chip and a plurality of first bumps 21, the first chip device 2 is flip-chip mounted in the first opening, and the connection between the first chip device 2 and the substrate 1 is achieved by connecting the plurality of first bumps 21 with the pads 12 in the opening. The first opening is any one of the at least two openings, and the first bump 21 can be tin, gold, or other common bump types such as metal bumps, which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0071] In the embodiment, the second chip device 3 includes a second chip and a plurality of second bumps 31, the second chip device 3 is flip-chip mounted in the second opening, and the connection between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 is achieved by connecting the plurality of second bumps 31 with the pads 12 in the opening. The second opening is any one of the at least two openings, and the second bump 31 can be tin, gold, or other common bump types such as metal bumps, which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0072] In one embodiment, the distance h1 between the first chip device 2 and the first supporting structure 11 is less than the distance h2 between the second chip device 3 and the first supporting structure 11.
[0073] Optionally, the distance h1 between the first chip device 2 and the first supporting structure 11 is less than 5 um, and h1 can be 4 um, 3 um, 1 um, or the like, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0074] It should be noted that h1 can be the minimum distance, for example, the vertical distance, between the first chip device 2 and the first supporting structure 11. h2 can be the minimum distance between the second chip device 3 and the first supporting structure 11.
[0075] In the embodiment, the filler 4 covers the first chip device 2, the second chip device 3, and the first supporting structure 11, so that the first chip device 2 forms a first cavity 5 with the substrate 1 in the first opening, and the filler 4 fills the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, so that a second cavity 6 is formed between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1.
[0076] It can be understood that the second cavity 6 is formed between the second chip device 3 and the substrate in the second opening, which can be between the fillers 4 as shown in Figure 1 It can be understood that the second cavity 6 is formed between the second chip device 3 and the substrate in the second opening, which can be between the fillers 4 as shown in
[0077] In the embodiment, the second cavity 6 can be formed by controlling the pressure of the process, the amount of the filling material 4, the size of the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, and other ways, which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0078] In an embodiment, the filling material 4 at least partially covers at least one of the plurality of second bumps 31. The thermal stability of the second chip device 3 can be further improved while increasing the connection stability of the second bump 31 and the pad 12.
[0079] Specifically, the filling material 4 is used to isolate the chip device from the external environment, avoid the humidity, temperature, particles and other factors of the external environment from affecting the chip device, so as to protect the chip device. The filling material 4 can be plastic sealing material, which can be sealing resin or other insulating materials with weak fluidity.
[0080] In an embodiment, the area of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 is smaller than the area of the first cavity 5 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1.
[0081] In another embodiment, the volume of the second cavity 6 is smaller than the volume of the first cavity 5.
[0082] In yet another embodiment, the area of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 is s, the area of the second chip device 3 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 is S, and the relationship between the area s of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 and the area S of the second chip device 3 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 can be 0.2S≤s≤0.8S.
[0083] Further, the relationship between the area s of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 and the area S of the second chip device 3 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 can also be 0.25S≤s≤0.75S.
[0084] Further, the relationship between the area s of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 and the area S of the second chip device 3 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 can also be 1 / 3S≤s≤2 / 3S.
[0085] For example, the relationship between the area s of the second cavity 6 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 and the area S of the second chip device 3 in the orthographic projection towards the substrate 1 can be s=0.2S, s=0.25S, s=0.3S, s=0.4S, s=0.5S, s=0.6S, s=0.7S, s=0.75S, s=0.8S, etc., which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0086] In the embodiment, the second cavity 6 is generally formed in the middle area close to the second chip device 3, and can also be formed in other areas, which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0087] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the orthographic projection towards the substrate can be understood as the projection perpendicular to the substrate, and the following will not be described in detail.
[0088] The chip module is generally arranged with a plurality of chip devices, and the density is large. If each chip device has a large cavity, the cavity area of the chip module will be too large, thereby reducing the structural strength. In the embodiments, the orthographic projection area of the second cavity 6 towards the substrate 1 is smaller than the orthographic projection area of the first cavity 5 towards the substrate 1, or the volume of the second cavity 6 is smaller than the volume of the first cavity 5, or the relationship between the orthographic projection area s of the second cavity 6 towards the substrate 1 and the orthographic projection area S of the second chip device 3 towards the substrate 1 satisfies 0.2S≤s≤0.8S. In this way, the influence of the thermal expansion of the filler 4 on the stability of the second chip device can be avoided, and the structural strength of the entire chip module can be improved, thereby improving the reliability of the chip packaging structure.
[0089] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a schematic view of another chip packaging structure provided by the embodiments of the present application. In Figure 2 , the first chip device 2 has a first orthographic projection towards the substrate 1, wherein the middle region is located in the first window, and the edge region is located on the first bearing structure 11; the second chip device 3 has a second orthographic projection towards the substrate 1, wherein the middle region is located in the second window, and the edge region is located on the first bearing structure 11.
[0090] That is, a part of the first bearing structure 11 extends to the region between the first chip device 2 and the substrate 1 and extends to the region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, and is arranged opposite to the edge of the first chip device 2 and the second chip device 3. The area of the first window on the substrate 1 is smaller than the projection area of the first chip device 2 on the substrate 1, and the area of the second window on the substrate 1 is also smaller than the projection area of the second chip device 3 on the substrate 1.
[0091] In the present embodiment, the first bearing structure 11 exists in the edge region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, which can reduce the channel size of the filler 4 entering the region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, and the filler 4 is more likely to form the second cavity 6 in the region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, thereby avoiding the filler 4 from being expanded by heat to cause the connection between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 to fall off or unstable contact, or even cause the second chip device 3 to deform, thereby improving the stability of the chip packaging structure.
[0092] In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the first chip device 2 is located in the first window in the middle region of the first orthographic projection towards the substrate 1, and the edge region of the first orthographic projection is located on the first bearing structure 11; the second chip device 3 is located in the second window in the second orthographic projection towards the substrate 1.
[0093] That is, a part of the first bearing structure 11 extends to the region between the first chip device 2 and the substrate 1, and is arranged opposite to the edge of the first chip device, the first bearing structure 11 does not extend to the region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, the area of the first window on the substrate 1 is smaller than the projection area of the first chip device 2 on the substrate 1, and the area of the second window on the substrate 1 is greater than the projection area of the second chip device 3 on the substrate 1.
[0094] In the embodiment, the first chip is a filter functional chip, such as a surface acoustic wave filter, a bulk acoustic wave filter and the like, which includes a functional area, and a plurality of first bumps 21 are arranged around the periphery of the functional area; the second chip is a non-filter functional chip, such as a power amplifier, a low-noise amplifier, a radio frequency switch and the like.
[0095] In an embodiment, the filling material 4 includes a sealing resin containing particles. The particles can be silicon dioxide (SiO2) particles, aluminum oxide (Al2O3) particles, or a combination of multiple particles, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0096] Optionally, the distance between the first chip device 2 and the first bearing structure 11 located at the edge of the first window is less than or equal to the maximum particle size of the particles in the filling material 4, which can play a blocking role, so that the filling material 4 does not flow into the first cavity 5 during the process, avoiding contamination of the filter functional chip, thereby improving the reliability of the chip device.
[0097] Optionally, the distance h2 between the second chip device 3 and the first bearing structure 11 located at the edge of the second window is greater than the maximum particle size of the particles in the filling material 4, so that the filling material 4 can smoothly enter the region between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1.
[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, the filling material is filled between the second chip device and the substrate and forms a cavity, which can avoid the instability of the packaging structure due to the thermal expansion of the filling material when the temperature rises, thereby improving the thermal stability of the chip packaging structure.
[0099] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is another schematic diagram of a chip packaging structure provided by the embodiment of the present application. The embodiment can have the same structure as the previous embodiment, and the embodiment will not be described here. The difference between the embodiment and the previous embodiment is that:
[0100] The substrate 1 is further provided with a second bearing structure 13, which is located in the first window, or which is located in the second window, or which is located in the first window and the second window.
[0101] It can be understood that the second bearing structure 13 located in the first window can be located in the range surrounded by the plurality of first bumps 21, and can be continuous or discontinuous relative to the functional area of the first chip. The second bearing structure 13 located in the second window can be located in the area between any two second bumps 31, and can be continuous or discontinuous, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0102] Specifically, the second bearing structure 13 can be a structure formed by a material with good formability and good solder resistance on the substrate 1, or can be a structure of a solder resist layer of the substrate 1, such as resin, solder resist green paint, dry film, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0103] It should be noted that the second bearing structure 13 and the first bearing structure 11 can be prepared in the same process, or can be prepared in different processes, and can use the same material or different materials, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0104] In addition, when the second bearing structure 13 and the first bearing structure 11 are prepared in the same process, a plurality of slots can be provided on the bearing structure, so that the bumps of the chip device can contact the pads on the substrate through the plurality of slots. The size of each slot can be just capable of accommodating the bump, or can be capable of accommodating a plurality of bumps at the same time, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0105] It can be understood that the second bearing structure 13 is located in the second window and is opposite to the second chip device 3, so that the filling material 4 is less likely to enter the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, thereby being more helpful to form the second cavity, and the formed second cavity can be more easily maintained, and the thermal stability of the chip packaging structure is higher.
[0106] In Figure 3 , the second chip device 3 is located in the second window in the second projection toward the substrate 1, and in combination with the second bearing structure 13 in the second window, the filling material 4 can more easily form the second cavity 6 between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 (which can be the second bearing structure 13), thereby avoiding the instability of the second chip device 3 caused by the thermal expansion of the filling material 4.
[0107] In yet another embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4is a schematic view of another chip packaging structure provided by an embodiment of the present application. The embodiment can have the same structure as the above two embodiments, and the embodiment will not be described here again. The difference between the embodiment and the above two embodiments is that:
[0108] The chip packaging structure further comprises a protective layer 7, which is attached to the outer surface of the first chip device 2 and laid on the first bearing structure 11 to isolate the first cavity 5 from the filling material 4.
[0109] It can be understood that the first chip device 2 comprises an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface being the surface opposite to the substrate 1, and the outer surface being other surfaces except the inner surface, such as the side surface and the front surface away from the substrate 1.
[0110] Specifically, the protective layer 7 is used to isolate the first cavity 5 from the filling material 4 or to block the filling material 4 from entering the first cavity 5 to pollute the cavity environment. The protective layer 7 can be an epoxy resin film, or other polymer films such as dry films or other resin materials. The protective layer 7 can be a material that has a certain ductility at high temperature but poor fluidity, and does not present a liquid state at high temperature, so that the protective layer 7 can better cover surfaces of various shapes and can play a better blocking role.
[0111] It should be noted that the protective layer 7 is attached to the outer surface of the first chip device 2 to isolate the first cavity 5 from the filling material 4, so that the filling material 4 cannot enter and pollute the first cavity 5 through the gap between the first chip device 2 and the first bearing structure 11 during the process, thereby causing the chip in the cavity to fail or affecting the working performance of the chip. Through the structure of the embodiment, the reliability of the chip device can be improved.
[0112] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 is a schematic view of another chip packaging structure provided by an embodiment of the present application. The outer surface of the first chip device 2 comprises a first front surface 22 away from the substrate 1 and a side surface 23, and the protective layer 7 attached to the first front surface 22 has an opening 71.
[0113] It can be understood that the opening 71 can penetrate the protective layer 7, so that the first front surface 22 exposed in the area of the opening 71 is in contact with the filling material 4; the opening 71 can also not penetrate the protective layer 7, that is, the bottom of the opening 71 is on the protective layer 7, and the first front surface 22 is thus not exposed and in contact with the filling material 4.
[0114] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 6A to Figure 6F , Figure 6A to Figure 6F is a top view of the first chip device 2. As shown in Figure 6A , the shape of the first opening 71 can be square; as shown in Figure 6B , it can also be multiple circular or elliptical shapes; as shown inFigure 6C As shown, it can also be an irregular shape; such as Figure 6D As shown, it can also be a ring; such as Figure 6E As shown, it can also be a cross-shaped opening; it can also be as shown in the image. Figure 6F The ring shape is shown. In this embodiment, the shape of the first opening 71 can be regular or irregular, and the number of first openings 71 can be one or more. This embodiment does not limit the shape, number, or size of the first openings 71, as long as they allow the protective layer 4 to adhere to the side 23. The first opening 71 does not extend beyond the edge of the first front surface 22. The first opening 71 can be close to the middle area of the first front surface 22 or the edge area of the first front surface 22. This embodiment does not limit this.
[0115] In the manufacturing process, a protective layer is typically first laid on the side of the chip device away from the substrate. Then, pressure is applied to the protective layer between the chip devices, or to the protective layer outside the chip devices, facing the substrate. This causes the protective layer to adhere to the outer surface of the chip device and the substrate, forming a sealed cavity between the chip device and the substrate. A filler is then applied over the protective layer. Due to the limited ductility of the protective layer, this process can easily lead to breakage, allowing the filler to enter the cavity through the break, causing chip failure or affecting chip performance. In this embodiment, the protective layer 7 has an opening on the first front side 22 of the first chip device 2, which reduces the limitation of the protective layer 7's ductility to a certain extent, thereby preventing breakage and improving chip packaging reliability.
[0116] Furthermore, the protective layer 7 has an opening 71 on the front side of the first chip device 2, which allows the filler 4 to contact the first chip device 2 at the opening 71, thereby increasing the bonding force between the first chip device 2 and the protective layer 7 and the filler 4, and improving the reliability of the packaging structure.
[0117] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of another chip packaging structure provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The protective layer 7 may also be attached to the outer surface of the second chip device 3 and is discontinuous with the protective layer 7 located on the first support structure 11, so as to form a channel 8 between the second chip device 3 and the first support structure 11 for the filler 4 to enter.
[0118] It is understood that the protective layer 7 is attached to the outer surface of the second chip device 3 and is disconnected from or has a gap with the protective layer 7 located on the first support structure 11, so that there is a channel 8 between the second chip device 3 and the first support structure 11, and the filler 4 can easily enter to fill the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1.
[0119] That is, the channel 8 can have one or multiple, can be disconnected from the protective layer 7 between the second chip device 3 and the first bearing structure 11, forming a larger channel, or can be spaced apart to form multiple channels, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0120] Further, the filling material 4 can at least partially cover at least one of the plurality of second bumps 31, so that the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 is filled with sufficient filling material 4, so that the connection stability of the second bump 31 of the second chip device 3 and the pad 12 is improved, and the structural strength of the second chip device is also improved, and there is a cavity, and the filling material 4 does not cause thermal expansion due to too much filling material 4. The filling material 4 can partially cover the second bump 31, or can completely cover the second bump 31, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0121] In one embodiment, the second projection of the second chip device 3 towards the substrate 1 is located in the second window. The filling material 4 can more easily enter the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1, so that the filling material 4 can at least partially cover at least one of the plurality of second bumps 31. Further, the substrate 1 is also provided with a second bearing structure 13 located in the second window, and the filling material 4 can more easily form a second cavity 6 between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 (or the second bearing structure 13), to avoid the filling material 4 from causing unstable packaging of the second chip device 3 due to thermal expansion. In this way, the connection stability between the second bump 31 and the pad 12 can be better guaranteed, and the overall thermal stability of the chip packaging structure is also improved.
[0122] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 are schematic diagrams of another chip packaging structure provided by the embodiment of the application. The outer surface of the second chip device 3 includes a side surface 33 and a second front surface 32 away from the substrate 1, and the second front surface 32 is attached with a protective layer 7, and at least a part of the side surface 33 is not attached with the protective layer 7.
[0123] That is, the second front surface 32 can be left with the protective layer 7, and at least a part of the side surface 33 is not attached with the protective layer 7, which can be that the side surface 33 is not attached with the protective layer 7, or one side surface is not attached with the protective layer 7, or a part of one side surface is not attached with the protective layer 7, which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0124] It can be understood that the protective layer 7 can be processed by laser (laser) to be disconnected or form a notch between the protective layer 7 attached to the outer surface of the second chip device 3 and the protective layer 7 attached to the first bearing structure 11.
[0125] In yet another embodiment, the thickness of the protective layer 7 is H, the distance between the first chip device 2 and the first bearing structure 11 is h1, and the relationship between the two can satisfy: 0.9H < h1 ≤ 2H. Specifically, h1 = H, h1 = 1.3H, h1 = 1.6H, h1 = 1.8H, and the embodiment is not limited.
[0126] Preferably, 0.9H < h1 ≤ 1.5H.
[0127] It can be understood that the relationship between the distance h1 between the first chip device 2 and the first bearing structure 11 and the thickness H of the protective layer 7 satisfies the above condition, the protective layer 7 is not easy to break, and the filler 4 thus will not enter the first cavity 5 to pollute the cavity environment.
[0128] In yet another embodiment, please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 Another schematic diagram of a chip packaging structure provided by the embodiment of the present application. In Figure 11 , the chip packaging structure comprises: a substrate 1, which is provided with a bearing structure 11 on one side, the bearing structure 11 has at least two windows, and the substrate 1 is also provided with a plurality of pads 12; a first chip device 2, which is flip-chip mounted in a first window of the at least two windows, specifically flip-chip mounted in the window through a first bump 21 and in contact with the pad 12; a second chip device 3, which is flip-chip mounted in a second window of the at least two windows, specifically flip-chip mounted in the window through a first bump 31 and in contact with the pad 12; a first filler 9, which is filled into the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 and forms a second cavity 6; and a second filler 4, which covers the first chip device 2, the second chip device 3, the first filler 9 and the bearing structure 11, so that a first cavity 5 is formed between the first chip device 2 and the substrate 1.
[0129] The embodiment has the same structure compared with the above-mentioned embodiments, and the embodiment will not be described here again. The difference between the embodiment and the above-mentioned two embodiments is that:
[0130] The first filler 9 is first filled into the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 and forms the second cavity 6, so as to ensure that the first filler 9 will not cause unstable connection between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 or deformation of the second chip device 3 when it expands due to heat, thereby improving the stability of the chip packaging structure.
[0131] The first filler 9 and the second filler 4 can be different materials or the same material, such as resin materials containing particles, and the volume of the particles contained in the first filler 9 is smaller than that contained in the second filler 4, so as to facilitate the first filler 9 to enter the area between the second chip device 3 and the substrate 1 from the area between the second chip device 3 and the bearing structure 11.
[0132] In yet another embodiment, the chip package structure comprises: a substrate having a first surface provided with a carrier structure, the carrier structure having at least two windows; a first chip device flip-chip mounted in a first window of the at least two windows; a second chip device flip-chip mounted in a second window of the at least two windows; a first filler filling a region between the second chip device and the substrate; and a second filler covering the first chip device, the second chip device, the first filler, and the carrier structure, so that a first cavity is formed between the first chip device and the substrate; the first filler has a modulus smaller than that of the second filler.
[0133] It can be understood that the embodiment differs from the previous embodiment in that the first filler, after filling the region between the second chip device and the substrate, does not form a cavity, and the modulus (i.e. stress) of the first filler is smaller than that of the second filler, so that even if the first filler expands due to heat, the second chip device and the substrate are not connected unstably or the second chip device is deformed, thereby improving the stability of the chip package structure.
[0134] In yet another embodiment, the chip package structure comprises: a substrate comprising a first surface; a first chip device flip-chip mounted on the first surface of the substrate; a second chip device flip-chip mounted on the first surface of the substrate; a protective layer adhering to an outer surface of the first chip device and an outer surface of the second chip device, and laid on the substrate, so that a first cavity is formed between the first chip device and the substrate; and a filler covering the protective layer and filling a region between the second chip device and the substrate, so that a second cavity is formed between the second chip device and the substrate.
[0135] It can be understood that the first surface of the substrate is the surface provided with pads, and the first chip device and the second chip device are both flip-chip mounted on the first surface through bumps, and the pads are connected. The protective layer adhering to the outer surface of the second chip device is discontinuous, such as having a gap or being completely disconnected, between the protective layer adhering to the outer surface of the second chip device and the protective layer laid on the substrate, and the filler can enter and fill the region between the second chip device and the substrate from the discontinuity.
[0136] Specifically, the first chip device comprises a first chip and a plurality of first bumps, and the first chip device is flip-chip mounted on the first surface of the substrate through the plurality of first bumps; the second chip device comprises a second chip and a plurality of second bumps, and the second chip device is flip-chip mounted on the first surface of the substrate through the plurality of second bumps; and when the filler fills the region between the second chip device and the substrate, the filler at least partially covers at least one of the plurality of second bumps.
[0137] In the embodiment, the protective layer is attached to the outer surface of the first chip device and the outer surface of the second chip device respectively, so that the first chip device and the substrate have a first cavity therebetween, and the filling material covers the protective layer, and the protective layer can prevent the filling material from entering the first cavity, thereby avoiding the pollution of the cavity environment to cause the first chip to fail or affect the working performance. The filling material can pass through the protective layer to fill the area between the second chip device and the substrate, so that the second chip device and the substrate have a second cavity therebetween, which can avoid the filling material from expanding due to heat to cause unstable connection between the second chip device and the substrate or deformation of the second chip device, thereby improving the stability of the chip packaging structure.
[0138] The embodiment of the present application further provides a chip module comprising the chip packaging structure mentioned in the present application. The chip module can comprise a plurality of non-filtering functional chip devices, or a plurality of filtering functional chip devices and a plurality of non-filtering functional chip devices.
