Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor chip packaging technology, and in particular to a packaging method for improving voids and poor solder joints in TSV process. Background Technology

[0002] In 3DS TSV processes, NCF films are typically used to fill the gaps between the chip bumps. In existing technologies, because NCF films cover the chip bump surfaces, different temperatures and soldering times need to be set according to the characteristics of the bumps and the NCF film during thermoforming. This is especially problematic when stacking TCB layers, where optimal temperature settings are difficult to achieve, easily leading to issues such as cold solder joints, voids, and NCF adhesive overflow, resulting in product failure or reliability issues. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention aims to provide a packaging method for improving the problem of voids and poor solder joints in the TSV process. This method has low process difficulty and can effectively improve the problems of poor solder joints, voids, and NCF glue overflow during the product soldering and packaging process, thereby greatly improving product quality and production capacity.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0005] A packaging method for improving voids and poor solder joints in TSV process includes the following steps:

[0006] S1 provides a chip wafer, a film, and a packaging substrate; the chip wafer has through holes, and metal bumps are provided on the front side of the chip wafer corresponding to the positions of the through holes;

[0007] S2, an opening corresponding to the metal bumps on the chip wafer is formed on the adhesive film;

[0008] S3, apply the adhesive film to the front side of the chip wafer, and the openings in the adhesive film cover the metal bumps on the chip wafer;

[0009] S4, the chip wafer after film application is thinned and diced to obtain a single film-coated chip;

[0010] S5, a single film-mounted chip is attached to the packaging substrate through the adhesive film, and then soldered. The adhesive film fills the gap between the metal bumps on the chip.

[0011] Furthermore, the shape of the openings on the adhesive film is adapted to the shape of the metal bumps.

[0012] Furthermore, the metal bump is spherical, and the openings on the adhesive film are spherical holes.

[0013] Furthermore, the aperture of the opening on the adhesive film is larger than the diameter of the metal bump.

[0014] Furthermore, the adhesive film is an NCF film.

[0015] Furthermore, in step S5, the welding process is a reflow welding process.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0017] This invention features a specially designed adhesive film with openings at the locations corresponding to each metal bump on the chip wafer. After the adhesive film is applied to the chip wafer, the openings completely cover the metal bumps. After a single chip is mounted onto the packaging substrate using the FCA process, the chip is connected to the substrate by soldering, with the adhesive film filling the spaces between the metal bumps. This method eliminates the need to set different soldering temperatures and times based on the characteristics of the metal bumps and NCF (Non-Fluorescent Adhesive), enabling the simultaneous soldering of multiple chips to the entire substrate. This improves production efficiency and capacity, and effectively addresses issues such as poor solder joints, voids, or NCF adhesive overflow, thus enhancing product quality.

[0025] In this embodiment, the adhesive film 2 is an NCF film;

[0026] S2, an opening 21 corresponding to the metal bump 12 of the chip wafer 1 is formed on the adhesive film 2, such as... Figure 1As shown;

[0027] The shape of the opening on the adhesive film 2 is adapted to the shape of the metal bump 12; in this embodiment, the metal bump 12 is spherical, and the opening 21 on the adhesive film 2 is a spherical hole. Furthermore, the diameter of the opening 21 on the adhesive film 2 is larger than the diameter of the metal bump 12. In this embodiment, the opening diameter D of the adhesive film 2 = the diameter of the metal bump + 10 μm.

[0028] S3, apply adhesive film 2 to the front side of chip wafer 1; as shown Figure 2 As shown, when applying the adhesive film, ensure that the openings of the adhesive film 2 correspond one-to-one with the metal bumps 12 on the chip wafer 1; after the adhesive film 2 is applied, the openings 21 on the adhesive film 2 will cover the metal bumps 12 on the chip wafer 1, as shown. Figure 3 As shown;

[0029] S4, the chip wafer 1 after film coating is thinned and diced to obtain a single film-coated chip;

[0030] S5, a single film-mounted chip is attached to the packaging substrate through the adhesive film, and then reflow soldering is performed. The adhesive film 2 fills the gap between the metal bumps 12 on the chip.
