Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuit packaging, in particular to a high-bandwidth differential wire bonding structure for a chip high-speed port. Background Art

[0002] Wire bonding is an important process in integrated circuit packaging. It connects the pads on the die to the pads on the substrate through metal bonding wires, so that the circuits in the die can be connected to the outside and powered. A differential signal is a signal transmitted through two wires, where the positive end transmits a positive polarity signal and the negative end transmits a negative polarity signal. The receiving end identifies the signal by comparing the difference between the two signals, and has a strong anti-interference ability.

The four chip bare die pads (103) are respectively recorded as the first, second, third, and fourth chip bare die pads from left to right, and the four substrate pads (105) are respectively recorded as the first, second, third, and fourth substrate pads from left to right. Among them, the first and fourth chip bare die pads are the ground of the chip (GND, marked as G in the figure), the second chip bare die pad is the differential signal positive terminal of the chip (marked as SP in the figure), and the third chip bare die pad is the differential signal negative terminal of the chip (marked as SN in the figure). The first, second, third, and fourth chip bare die pads are respectively connected to the first, second, third, and fourth substrate pads through bonding wires, and the four ports on the chip bare die can be led out to the outside. However, the bonding wire is not an ideal wire and has a certain parasitic inductance. As the frequency increases, the impedance mismatch caused by parasitic inductance becomes more serious, deteriorating signal integrity and becoming one of the bottlenecks limiting the improvement of chip port bandwidth. Therefore, reducing the parasitic inductance of the bonding wire is the key to improving the chip port bandwidth.

[0004] In summary, the wire bonding structure in the prior art has serious impedance mismatch, the parasitic inductance of the bonding wire reduces the chip port bandwidth, seriously deteriorates the signal integrity, and greatly limits the bandwidth improvement of the chip port.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects and significant technical progress: 1) The bonding wires at the positive and negative ends of the differential signal overlap, which reduces the mutual inductance of the bonding wires and improves the chip port bandwidth; 2) The bonding wires at the positive and negative ends of the differential signal overlap, increasing the parasitic capacitance between the bonding wires, compensating for the parasitic inductance in the high frequency band, and improving the chip port bandwidth;.
