[0027] The wiring 130 may be formed to penetrate one or more of the insulating layers 110 from the upper surface to the lower surface of the first substrate 100, and the insulating layers 110 surrounding the wiring 130 may be stacked on each other in the vertical direction Z. In this case, the wiring 130 may serve as an electrical connection path that penetrates the first substrate 100 from the upper surface to the lower surface of the first substrate 100. The first semiconductor chip 200, the conductive pillars 380, and the external connection terminals 160 may be electrically connected to each other via the wiring 130 of the first substrate 100.
[0028] In some embodiments, the first substrate 100 may include a ceramic substrate, a printed circuit board (PCB), or an organic substrate.

[0029] In some embodiments, the first substrate 100 may include a rewiring structure formed by using a rewiring process. In this case, the wiring 130 of the first substrate 100 may be understood as a rewiring pattern, and the insulating layer 110 of the first substrate 100 may be understood as a rewiring insulating layer. In this case, the wiring 130 may include a metal (such as copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), tungsten (W), titanium (Ti), tantalum (Ta), indium (In), molybdenum (Mo), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), tin (Sn), nickel (Ni), magnesium (Mg), rhenium (Re), beryllium (Be), gallium (Ga), ruthenium (Ru) or a combination thereof), but is not limited thereto, and in some embodiments, the wiring 130 may be formed by stacking a metal or a metal alloy on a seed layer including Cu, Ti, titanium nitride or titanium tungsten. In addition, the insulating layer 110 may be formed of, for example, a photoimageable dielectric (PID) or a photosensitive polyimide (PSPI).
[0030] The wiring 130 may include a line pattern 133 and a via pattern 131. The line pattern 133 may have a shape extending in a horizontal direction along at least one of an upper surface and a lower surface of each of a plurality of insulating layers 110 stacked in a vertical direction Z. The via pattern 131 may have a shape extending in the vertical direction Z and penetrating the insulating layer 110. The via pattern 131 may electrically connect the line patterns 133 at different vertical levels. In some embodiments, at least some of the line patterns 133 may be formed as one body with some of the via patterns 131.
[0031] The first semiconductor chip 200 may be arranged on the upper surface of the first substrate 100. According to some embodiments, the first semiconductor chip 200 may include a memory chip. The memory chip may include, for example, a volatile memory chip (such as a dynamic random access memory (RAM) (DRAM) and a static RAM (SRAM)) or a non-volatile memory chip (such as a phase change RAM (PRAM), a magnetoresistive RAM (MRAM), a ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM), and a resistive RAM (RRAM)). In addition, the first semiconductor chip 200 may include a logic chip. The logic chip may include, for example, a microprocessor (such as a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), and an application processor (AP)), an analog device, or a digital signal processor. However, the first semiconductor chip 200 is not limited to a memory chip or a logic chip, and the first semiconductor chip 200 may also have a chip structure including both a memory chip and a logic chip.
[0032] The first semiconductor chip 200 may be mounted on the first substrate 100 in a flip-chip manner by using the first bumps 250. The first semiconductor chip 200 may be electrically connected to the first substrate 100 via the first bumps 250. The first bumps 250 may physically contact each of pads formed on the upper surface of the first substrate 100 and pads formed under the lower surface of the first semiconductor chip 200, and may be electrically connected to the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200.
[0033] According to some embodiments, the first bump 250 may have a column structure or a ball structure, or include a solder layer. According to some embodiments, the first bump 250 may include a micro bump. In this case, the micro bump may be understood as a bump having a critical dimension of less than about 20 μm. For example, when the first bump 250 has a spherical shape, the diameter of the first bump 250 may be less than about 20 μm.
[0034] The first bump 250 may be provided in plurality. The plurality of first bumps 250 may be provided separately from each other in the first horizontal direction X. According to some embodiments, the distance from the center of any one first bump 250 to the center of another first bump 250 directly adjacent thereto may be less than about 50 μm. According to some embodiments, the distance from the center of any one first bump 250 to the center of another first bump 250 directly adjacent thereto may be in the range of about 10 μm to about 50 μm.
[0035] The first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 may be arranged to be separated from each other in the vertical direction Z by the first bumps 250. A distance D1 between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z may be equal to or less than about 10 μm. A thickness of the first bumps 250 in the vertical direction Z may be equal to or less than about 10 μm.
[0036] Since the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 are separated from each other in the vertical direction Z by the first bumps 250 , a space may be formed between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 .
[0037] The first underfill layer 270 and the first molding member 390 may be arranged in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. According to some embodiments, each of the first underfill layer 270 and the first molding member 390 may include epoxy resin. Each of the first underfill layer 270 and the first molding member 390 may include a filler, and the filler content of the first underfill layer 270 may be in the range of about 70% to about 95%, and the filler content of the first molding member 390 may be in the range of about 5% to about 40%. In this case, the filler content may be understood as a mass ratio.
[0038] According to some embodiments, the first underfill layer 270 may be arranged to overlap with a central portion of the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z. The first underfill layer 270 may be formed to fill a region corresponding to a central portion of a space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. In this case, the first underfill layer 270 may be formed only in a central portion of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, and may not be formed in a region corresponding to a peripheral portion of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200.
[0039] According to some embodiments, in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, the volume occupied by the first underfill layer 270 in the region other than the volume occupied by the first bump 250 may be in the range of about 5% to about 50%. In some embodiments, in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, the volume occupied by the first underfill layer 270 in the region other than the volume occupied by the first bump 250 may be in the range of about 10% to about 30%. When the volume ratio occupied by the first underfill layer 270 in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 is in the range of about 10% to about 30%, the first underfill layer 270 may fill the region where the first underfill layer 270 overlaps with the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, but may not fill the region where the first underfill layer 270 does not overlap with the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z.
[0040] The first molding member 390 may be formed to cover the first semiconductor chip 200 and the conductive pillars 380. The first molding member 390 may cover both the upper surface and the side surface of the first semiconductor chip 200. In addition, the first molding member 390 may be formed in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. The first molding member 390 may be formed to fill the area corresponding to the peripheral portion of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. In other words, the first molding member 390 may be formed to fill the area of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 except the portion where the first bottom filling layer 270 is formed. The first molding member 390 arranged between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 may not overlap with the central portion of the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z. The first molding member 390 formed between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 may surround the first bump 250.
[0041] A plurality of first bumps 250 may be disposed between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, and a first bump 250 among the plurality of first bumps 250 that overlaps with a central portion of the first semiconductor chip 200 may be surrounded by the first bottom filling layer 270, while a first bump 250 among the plurality of first bumps 250 that does not overlap with a central portion of the first semiconductor chip 200 may be surrounded by the first molding member 390 instead of being surrounded by the first bottom filling layer 270.
[0042] The volume occupied by the first molding member 390 in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 may be greater than the volume occupied by the first underfill layer 270. According to some embodiments, in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, the volume occupied by the first molding member 390 in the region other than the volume occupied by the first bump 250 may be in the range of about 70% to about 90%. In the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, in addition to the first bump 250, two heterogeneous materials may be provided.
[0043] According to some embodiments, Figure 1B As shown, the first underfill layer 270 may be formed in the central portion of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. When the first underfill layer 270 is viewed in the vertical direction Z, at least a portion of the peripheral region of the first underfill layer 270 may have a shape protruding toward the first molding member 390. However, the shape of the first underfill layer 270 viewed from the vertical direction Z is not limited thereto, and when the first underfill layer 270 is viewed from the vertical direction Z, the peripheral region thereof may also have a circular or elliptical shape.
[0044] The conductive pillar 380 may be arranged on the upper surface of the first substrate 100 in a horizontal direction and separated from the first semiconductor chip 200. The conductive pillar 380 may penetrate the first molding member 390 and extend in the vertical direction Z. The conductive pillar 380 may include, for example, a through-molding via or a conductive straight pillar. The conductive pillar 380 may include, for example, copper. According to some embodiments, the conductive pillar 380 may be provided in plurality. In this case, the plurality of conductive pillars 380 may be arranged in a horizontal direction and separated from each other.
[0045] The external connection terminal 160 may be arranged below the lower surface of the first substrate 100. The external connection terminal 160 may be electrically connected to an external connection device via a pad formed below the lower surface of the first substrate 100. The external connection device may include, for example, a motherboard PCB. According to some embodiments, the external connection terminal 160 may include a solder ball. In addition, in some embodiments, the external connection terminal 160 may also have a structure including a column and a solder. The external connection terminal 160 may include at least one of Cu, silver (Ag), gold (Au), and tin (Sb).
[0046] The semiconductor package 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a first underfill layer 270 and a first molding member 390 disposed between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200. In this case, the first underfill layer 270 may be formed in a region corresponding to a central portion of a space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, and the first molding member 390 may be formed in a region corresponding to a peripheral portion of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200.
[0047] In the comparative embodiment, when the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 is filled by the first molding member 390 during the molding underfill process, and when the distance D1 between the upper surface of the first substrate 100 and the lower surface of the first semiconductor chip 200 in the vertical direction Z is equal to or less than about 10 μm, there may be a problem that the first molding member 390 is unevenly formed and voids are formed between the first molding members 390. In addition, there is a tendency that a large number of voids are generated in a region corresponding to a central portion in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200.
[0048] However, in the semiconductor package 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first underfill layer 270 may be arranged in a region corresponding to a central portion where a large number of voids occur in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, and the first molding member 390 may be arranged to surround the first underfill layer 270 to reduce the occurrence of voids. In other words, both the first underfill layer 270 and the first molding member 390 may be arranged in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 to reduce the defect that the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200 is not completely filled.
[0049] In addition, the reliability of the semiconductor package 10 can be improved by arranging the first bottom filling layer 270 only in areas where gaps frequently appear in the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200, and arranging the first molding member 390 including a material having greater properties (for example, greater thermal conductivity and greater compressive strength) than the first bottom filling layer 270 in other areas of the space between the first substrate 100 and the first semiconductor chip 200.

[0061] The second substrate 300 and the second semiconductor chip 400 may be separated from each other in the vertical direction Z by the second bumps 450 . Since the second substrate 300 and the second semiconductor chip 400 are separated from each other in the vertical direction Z by the second bumps 450 , a space may be formed between the second substrate 300 and the second semiconductor chip 400 .
