Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor chip packaging, and in particular to a packaging method suitable for vehicle-mounted high-reliability chips. The present invention also provides a packaging structure obtained by the packaging method. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous progress of the semiconductor industry, application requirements are getting higher and higher, and the structure is becoming more and more complex. This has led to a series of technical problems. Among them, improving the reliability of automotive products is a very difficult problem. In the automotive image sensor chip industry, in order to improve the imaging quality of photosensitive chips and eliminate defects such as poor imaging and ghosting of photosensitive chips, the relatively new process method on the market is to use black photosensitive glue as a surface solder mask and a cofferdam on the glass to block stray light on the back and sides of the chip's photosensitive area. However, in the actual process, due to the characteristics of black photosensitive glue, the undercut at the bottom of the black glue is large after development, and there will be a risk of cofferdam & surface solder mask delamination during the reliability process.

[0003] The black glue currently used in the market has similar characteristics to traditional green glue, and is also coated on the surface of the product using a coating process. Although it solves the photosensitivity problem caused by stray light to a certain extent, it still has the same problem of uniformity across the entire surface as traditional green glue, and also introduces defects in the characteristics of the black glue itself. The black photosensitive glue used as a solder mask and cofferdam has a certain thickness. Due to poor light transmittance, the light cannot completely illuminate the bottom of the black glue. During the exposure process of the photolithography process, part of the bottom of the black glue is not fully illuminated, and the undercut of the bottom of the black glue is very large after development. In addition to the uneven thickness of the glue, cracking of the solder mask and the passivation layer may occur during reliability. In the reliability process, the risk of delamination of the cofferdam & surface solder mask is also very high. Therefore, improving this problem by exploring and researching new processes is a key factor in improving reliability. Summary of the invention
