[0002] Package on package (POP) is an integrated circuit packaging method, generally used to combine vertically discrete system-on-chip (SOC) and memory chips. For example, two or more chips are installed on top of each other, that is, stacked, to form a POP packaged device. At this time, signal interconnection can be provided between chips through a standard interface, which has the advantages of high bandwidth and short signal transmission path. POP packaged devices are often used in electronic devices such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and digital cameras to achieve higher density device layout. However, as the performance of electronic devices improves generation by generation, the thermal power consumption of the chip itself is also increasing.

At this time, a filling adhesive can also be filled in the gaps between the plurality of first solder balls to further improve the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip and the heat transfer plate.

[0016] In some embodiments, the electronic component further includes a filling adhesive filled between the heat transfer plate and the first chip. In this embodiment, the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip and the heat transfer plate can be further improved.
[0017] In some embodiments, the electronic component further includes a filling adhesive filled between the heat transfer plate and the second chip. In this embodiment, the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip and the heat transfer plate can be further improved.
[0018] In some embodiments, the first chip includes a first die and a first protection part; the heat transfer plate is stacked on the side of the first die facing away from the circuit board; the surface of the heat transfer plate facing away from the circuit board includes a heat dissipation surface and a plurality of third contacts, and the heat dissipation surface is electrically insulated from the plurality of third contacts; the first protection part surrounds the first die and the heat transfer plate, and the first protection part exposes the heat dissipation surface and the third contacts; the plurality of third contacts are connected to the second chip. With such an arrangement, the heat in the first chip is more easily conducted out from the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation effect of the first chip.
[0019] In some embodiments, the first protection part includes a first packaging substrate and a first encapsulation part; the surface of the first die facing away from the heat transfer plate is connected to the first packaging substrate; the first encapsulation part is connected to the first packaging substrate and at least surrounds the side surface of the first die, all or part of the surface of the heat transfer plate close to the first die. The first chip further includes a heat conduction part located within the first encapsulation part, and the heat conduction part is connected to the first packaging substrate and the heat transfer plate. In this embodiment, by providing the heat conduction part to connect the first packaging substrate and the heat transfer plate, the heat in the first chip is more easily transferred to the heat transfer plate, so as to be conducted to the above-mentioned first heat conduction structure and first heat dissipation heat sink through the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0020] In some embodiments, the first chip further includes a connection board stacked between the first die and the heat transfer plate, and the connection board is in contact with both the first die and the heat transfer plate at the same time. In this embodiment, by adding the connection board, the heat of the first die can be better conducted into the heat transfer plate, with higher heat transfer efficiency, so as to be conducted to the above-mentioned first heat conduction structure and first heat dissipation heat sink through the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0021] In some embodiments, the surface of the heat transfer plate facing away from the circuit board includes a heat dissipation surface and a plurality of third contacts. The heat dissipation surface is electrically insulated from the plurality of third contacts, and the plurality of third contacts are connected to the second chip. In this embodiment, the third contacts can be used for heat conduction and signal conduction simultaneously. The heat dissipation surface can be used to conduct heat to an external heat dissipation structure. Exemplarily, the heat dissipation surface includes a metal surface, and the metal surface has a high heat dissipation efficiency.
[0022] In some embodiments, the plurality of third contacts form at least one third contact group; the heat dissipation surface includes a first heat dissipation surface, and the first heat dissipation surface surrounds at least one side of the third contact group. One third contact group here can be used to electrically connect one second chip. At this time, the heat dissipation surface includes a first heat dissipation surface, and the first heat dissipation surface surrounds at least one side of the third contact group. For example, for a rectangular third contact group, the first heat dissipation surface can surround one side, two sides, three sides or four sides of the third contact group.
[0023] In some embodiments, the area of the first heat dissipation surface is larger than the area of each of the third contacts. In this way, it is beneficial to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the first heat dissipation surface.
[0024] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation surface further includes a second heat dissipation surface; a heat transfer portion adapted to the second heat dissipation surface is specifically provided inside the heat transfer plate. Such a setting can effectively reduce the thermal resistance on the transfer path. The thermal resistance refers to the heat transferred from the first chip passing through the heat transfer portion inside the heat transfer plate to the heat dissipation surface, so as to be transferred to the first heat sink through the first heat conduction structure outside the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, vias can be drilled inside the PCB board and filled with a material having a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating dielectric layer (i.e., the heat transfer portion), such as copper metal, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0025] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation surface includes a metal surface. Such a setting is conducive to improving the heat transfer efficiency of the heat transfer plate. In some embodiments, the electronic component also includes a first heat sink and a first heat conductive structure. The first heat sink is located on the side of the second chip away from the heat transfer plate; the first heat conductive structure connects the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate and the first heat sink. Among them, the first heat sink can be an air-cooled radiator, a liquid cooling plate, a temperature equalizing plate, etc., and the first heat sink can be directly used to dissipate heat for the second chip. In this embodiment, since the first heat conductive structure is further provided to connect the heat dissipation surface (such as the first heat dissipation surface) of the heat transfer plate and the first heat sink, the heat of the first chip can be transferred to the first heat sink through the heat transfer plate and the second chip (the thermal resistance of this path is large), and can also be transferred to the first heat sink through the heat transfer plate and the first heat conductive structure (the thermal resistance of this path is small), and the heat dissipation efficiency is greatly improved. In some embodiments, the first heat conductive structure includes at least one of metal, alloy, graphite, pure silicon, cobalt and electronic components. Among them, metals include but are not limited to one of the elements such as copper, silver, and aluminum, and alloys include but are not limited to a combination of multiple elements such as copper, silver, and aluminum. Metals, alloys, graphite, and pure silicon all have high heat transfer efficiency. Diamond copper can also be called diamond copper. It is a composite material of metallic copper and diamond, which has a higher heat transfer efficiency than copper. In addition, it should be noted that the electronic components can be devices with certain functions such as capacitors, inductors, and resistors. When the first heat-conducting structure includes electronic components, while having a heat transfer function, it can also meet some functional requirements in electrical aspects, and is more practical.
[0026] In some embodiments, the first heat-conducting structure is welded to the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate or a thermal interface material (TIM) is added. For example, the first heat-conducting structure can be welded to the first heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate, so that the thermal resistance between the first heat-conducting structure and the heat transfer plate can be reduced, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency.
[0027] In some embodiments, a thermal interface material is filled between the first heat sink and the first heat conductive structure. The thermal interface material has the characteristics of bridging the micro gap of the contact interface and reducing the interface contact thermal resistance, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the first heat conductive structure and the first heat sink and improve the heat dissipation effect of the first chip.
[0028] The first heat sink and the first heat conducting structure may be an integrated structure, which can further reduce the contact thermal resistance and lower the thermal resistance on the heat transfer path (the thermal resistance from the first chip to the first heat sink).
[0029] In some embodiments, the heat transfer plate and the first heat conducting structure may be an integral structure. Such an arrangement can reduce the contact thermal resistance between the first heat conducting structure and the heat transfer plate and lower the thermal resistance on the heat transfer path (the thermal resistance from the first chip to the first heat sink). A heat transfer portion adapted to the second heat dissipation surface may be specifically formed inside the heat transfer plate. Such an arrangement can effectively reduce the thermal resistance on the transfer path. The thermal resistance refers to the heat transferred from the first chip being transferred to the second heat dissipation surface through the heat transfer portion inside the heat transfer plate, so as to be transferred to the first heat sink through the first heat conducting structure outside the heat transfer plate, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, vias may be drilled inside the PCB board, especially at the positions corresponding to the first heat conducting structure, and materials with a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating dielectric layer (i.e., the heat transfer portion), such as copper, may be filled to improve the heat dissipation efficiency. Exemplarily, taking the PCB board as an example, the "integral structure" here may be that after forming a relatively thick PCB board, other positions except the area of the first heat conducting structure are milled thinner, thereby forming an integral heat transfer plate and the first heat conducting structure. At this time, the first heat conducting structure may simultaneously include conductive posts and the insulating materials around them.
[0030] In some embodiments, a thermal interface material (TIM) is filled between the first heat sink and the second chip. The thermal interface material has the characteristics of bridging the micro gaps at the contact interface and reducing the interface contact thermal resistance, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip and the first heat sink and improve the heat dissipation effect of the second chip.
[0031] In some embodiments, the first heat conducting structure is located between the heat transfer plate and the first heat sink, and the first heat conducting structure is located on at least one side of the second chip. In this embodiment, the first heat conducting structure may be located on one side or multiple sides of the second chip. For example, when the second chip is rectangular, the first heat conducting structure may be arranged around the second chip.
[0032] In some embodiments, the first heat conducting structure includes a first heat conducting portion that extends along a first direction, and the first direction is parallel to the plane where the heat transfer plate is located. The number of the second chips is multiple; the multiple second chips are arranged along the first direction, and the multiple second chips are located on the same side of the first heat conducting portion.
[0033] Based on the above embodiments, the first heat conducting structure may further include a second heat conducting portion that extends along the first direction. In the second direction, the multiple second chips are located between the first heat conducting portion and the second heat conducting portion; the second direction intersects with the first direction;
[0034] In some embodiments, the number of the second chips is multiple; the first heat conducting structure is located between at least two of the second chips.
[0035] On the basis of the above embodiment, the heat transfer plate further includes an opening. The first heat-conducting structure is connected to the first chip through the opening. In this example, the first heat-conducting structure can be directly connected to the first chip, which is beneficial to further reduce the thermal resistance between the first chip and the first heat sink and improve the heat dissipation efficiency. At least one first heat-conducting structure is added between the heat transfer plate and the circuit board to increase the reliability of the electronic components, and also increase the thermal interaction characteristics between the heat transfer plate and the circuit board, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation; the supporting structure is not limited to metal, non-metallic materials, and some functional devices, and the connection with the heat transfer plate is not limited to adhesive bonding, welding and direct physical contact; the connection between the first heat-conducting structure and the circuit board is not limited to adhesive bonding, welding and direct physical contact.
[0036] In some embodiments, a thermal interface material is filled between the first heat-conducting structure and the first chip. The thermal interface material has the characteristic of reducing the interface contact thermal resistance, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip and the first heat-conducting structure and improve the heat dissipation effect of the first chip.
[0037] In some embodiments, the heat transfer plate includes a first contact surface and a second contact surface. The first contact surface is the inner wall surface of the opening, the second contact surface is located on the side of the heat transfer plate away from the first chip, and the second contact surface surrounds the opening. The first heat conductive structure is connected to at least one of the first contact surface and the second contact surface. In this embodiment, when the first heat conductive structure is connected to the first contact surface and / or the second contact surface, the thermal resistance between the first heat conductive structure and the heat transfer plate can be reduced, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency.
[0038] In some embodiments, the electronic component further comprises: a support structure, which is located between the heat transfer plate and the circuit board, and simultaneously connects the heat transfer plate and the circuit board. In this embodiment, the support structure can be used to support the heat transfer plate to increase the reliability of the electronic component. The support structure here is not limited to metal, non-metallic materials, and certain functional devices. The connection between the support structure and the heat transfer plate is not limited to adhesive bonding, welding, and direct physical contact. The connection between the support structure and the circuit board is not limited to adhesive bonding, welding, and direct physical contact.
[0039] In some embodiments, the support structure is configured as a second heat-conducting structure. In this way, the heat transfer plate and the circuit board can be increased at the same time.
[0040] In some embodiments, the support structure is arranged around the first chip, so that the support effect of the support structure on the heat transfer plate can be improved, and the stability and reliability are high.
[0041] In some embodiments, the heat transfer plate and the second heat-conducting structure can be an integrated structure. Such an arrangement can reduce the contact thermal resistance between the second heat-conducting structure and the heat transfer plate, and reduce the thermal resistance on the heat transfer path (the thermal resistance from the first chip to the second heat-conducting structure). The heat transfer plate is specially provided with a heat transfer portion adapted to the heat dissipation surface in contact with the second heat-conducting structure. Such an arrangement can effectively reduce the thermal resistance on the transfer path. The thermal resistance refers to the heat transferred from the first chip to the heat dissipation surface through the heat transfer portion inside the heat transfer plate, so as to be transferred to the circuit board or other heat dissipation structures through the second heat-conducting structure outside the heat transfer plate, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, a hole can be drilled inside the PCB board, especially at the position corresponding to the first heat-conducting structure, and filled with a material (i.e., a heat transfer portion) with a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating medium layer, such as metal copper, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, taking the PCB board as an example, the "integrated structure" here can be that after forming a thicker PCB board, other positions except the second heat-conducting structure area are milled thin to form an integrated heat transfer plate and the second heat-conducting structure. At this time, the second heat-conducting structure can also include a conductive column and the insulating material around it.
[0042] In some embodiments, the electronic component further includes: a third heat-conducting structure and a second heat sink; the second heat sink is located on the side of the circuit board away from the heat transfer plate; the third heat-conducting structure is located between the heat transfer plate and the second heat sink, the third heat-conducting structure passes through the opening on the circuit board, one end of the third heat-conducting structure is connected to the heat transfer plate, and the other end is connected to the second heat sink. In this embodiment, the third heat-conducting structure can pass through the circuit board and directly achieve thermal connection with the second heat sink on the side of the circuit board away from the first chip, so as to achieve efficient heat transfer from the heat transfer plate to the second heat sink on the side of the circuit board away from the first chip, so as to achieve a heat dissipation effect. The third heat-conducting structure here is not limited to metals, non-metals, and alloys.
[0043] In some embodiments, the third heat-conducting structure is disposed around the first chip. Here, the third heat-conducting structure can also play a good role in supporting the heat transfer plate.
[0044] In some embodiments, the third heat conduction structure and the heat transfer plate are thermally connected by a thermal interface material or welding. In this way, the heat transfer plate and the third heat conduction structure have a high heat transfer efficiency. One side of the heat transfer plate close to the third heat conduction structure includes a third heat dissipation surface, and a heat transfer portion adapted to the third heat dissipation surface is specifically made inside. Such a setting can effectively reduce the thermal resistance on the transfer path. The thermal resistance refers to the heat transferred from the first chip being transferred to the heat dissipation surface through the heat transfer portion inside the heat transfer plate, so as to be transferred to the first heat dissipation heat sink through the first heat conduction structure outside the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, vias can be drilled inside the PCB board and filled with a material (i.e., the heat transfer portion) with a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating dielectric layer, such as copper, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0045] In some embodiments, the third heat conduction structure and the second heat dissipation heat sink are connected by welding or through a thermal interface material. In this way, the third heat conduction structure and the second heat dissipation heat sink have a high heat transfer efficiency.
[0046] In some embodiments, the third heat conduction structure and the second heat dissipation heat sink are of an integral structure. In this way, the third heat conduction structure and the second heat dissipation heat sink have a higher heat transfer efficiency.
[0047] In some embodiments, the heat transfer plate and the third heat conduction structure can be of an integral structure. Such a setting can reduce the contact thermal resistance between the third heat conduction structure and the heat transfer plate and lower the thermal resistance on the heat transfer path (the thermal resistance from the first chip to the first heat dissipation heat sink). A heat transfer portion adapted to the heat dissipation surface in contact with the third heat conduction structure is specifically made inside the heat transfer plate. Such a setting can effectively reduce the thermal resistance on the transfer path. The thermal resistance refers to the heat transferred from the first chip being transferred to the heat dissipation surface through the heat transfer portion inside the heat transfer plate, so as to be transferred to the first heat dissipation heat sink through the first heat conduction structure outside the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For example, vias can be drilled inside the PCB board, especially at the position corresponding to the first heat conduction structure, and filled with a material (i.e., the heat transfer portion) with a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating dielectric layer, such as copper, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency. Exemplarily, taking the PCB board as an example, the "integral structure" here can be that after forming a relatively thick PCB board, other positions except the area of the third heat conduction structure are milled thin to form an integral heat transfer plate and third heat conduction structure. At this time, the third heat conduction structure can include both the conductive column and the insulating material around it.
[0048] On the other hand, a chip structure is provided, including a first die, a heat transfer plate, and a first protection part; the heat transfer plate is stacked on one side of the first die; the surface of the heat transfer plate facing away from the first die includes a heat dissipation surface and a plurality of third contacts, and the heat dissipation surface is electrically insulated from the plurality of third contacts; the first protection part surrounds all or part of the first die and the surface of the heat transfer plate close to the first die (for example, in the direction parallel to the circuit board, the relative size of the first protection part and the heat transfer plate can be larger, smaller, or equal, or larger or smaller in a certain direction, which is not limited here), and the first protection part exposes the heat dissipation surface and the third contacts. With such a setting, the heat in the first chip is more easily conducted out from the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate, improving the heat dissipation effect of the first chip.
[0049] In some embodiments, the first protection part includes a first encapsulation substrate and a first plastic encapsulation part; the surface of the first die facing away from the heat transfer plate is connected to the first encapsulation substrate; the first plastic encapsulation part is connected to the first encapsulation substrate and at least surrounds the side surface of the first die and all or part of the surface of the heat transfer plate close to the first die. The first chip further includes a heat conduction part, which is located in the first plastic encapsulation part, and the heat conduction part is connected to the first encapsulation substrate and the heat transfer plate. In this embodiment, by providing the heat conduction part to connect the first encapsulation substrate and the heat transfer plate, the heat in the first chip is more easily transferred to the heat transfer plate, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The number of the heat conduction parts here can be one or more, and among them, it is not limited that some or all of the heat conduction parts have both the functions of transmitting signals and transferring heat at the same time.
[0050] In some embodiments, the first chip further includes a connection board, which is stacked between the first die and the heat transfer plate, and the connection board is connected to both the first die and the heat transfer plate at the same time. In this embodiment, by adding the connection board, the heat of the first die can be better conducted into the heat transfer plate, with higher heat transfer efficiency and more conducive to reducing the junction temperature of the first chip.
[0051] In some embodiments, the first die in the first chip is directly connected to the heat transfer plate. In this embodiment, the heat of the first die can be better conducted into the heat transfer plate, with higher heat transfer efficiency and more conducive to reducing the junction temperature of the first chip.

The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a digital camera, a personal computer, a notebook computer, a smart watch, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, augmented reality (AR) glasses, an AR helmet, virtual reality (VR) glasses, a VR helmet, a server, a switch, a bridge (also known as a bridge), a repeater, a router or a gateway (also known as a protocol converter), etc. It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application do not impose special restrictions on the specific form of the electronic device 1000.
[0080] Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of an electronic device 1000 provided by the embodiments of the present application. As Figure 1As shown, the electronic device 1000 may include a housing 1001 and an electronic component 100. Here, the specific shape and material of the housing 1001 are not limited. That is, for different types of electronic devices 1000, the housing 1001 with different shapes and different materials can be used according to their own needs. The electronic component 100 is located inside the housing 1001. For example, the electronic component 100 may be connected to the inner wall structure of the housing 1001, and the connection methods here include but are not limited to at least one of snap connection, screw connection, bonding, etc. The electronic component 100 here may also be referred to as a POP package device.
[0081] Figure 2 This is a structural diagram of an electronic component 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the electronic component 100 includes a circuit board 110, a first chip 10, a second chip 20, and a heat transfer plate 120.
[0082] The circuit board 110 may be a printed circuit board (PCB). The circuit board 110 may be the main board of the electronic device 1000. In some examples, the circuit board 110 includes a conductive layer and an insulating layer arranged in a stacked manner. The front and / or back of the circuit board 110 can be used to connect chips or other electronic components, such as capacitors, resistors, inductors, etc.
[0083] The heat transfer plate 120 is located on one side of the circuit board 110. For example, in the thickness direction Z of the circuit board 110, the heat transfer plate 120 may be arranged face to face with the circuit board 110. The face-to-face arrangement can be understood as: in the thickness direction Z, the orthographic projection of the heat transfer plate 120 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the circuit board 110.
[0084] The first chip 10 is located between the heat transfer plate 120 and the circuit board 110. The first chip 10 is connected to the circuit board 110 and the first chip 10 is connected to the heat transfer plate 120. In some examples, the first chip 10 may be a system on chip (SOC). Exemplarily, the first chip 10 and the circuit board 110 may be connected by a Ball Grid Array (BGA) or a Land Grid Array (LGA) method. Among them, the BGA packaging method mainly uses solder balls for connection, and the LGA packaging method mainly uses solder joints for connection. Here, the solder joints are flat, and the volume of the solder joints is smaller than the volume of the solder balls. On this basis, an underfill may also be filled in the remaining gap between the first chip 10 and the circuit board 110. The materials of the underfill include but are not limited to silicone, etc. In this way, electrical signals can be transmitted between the first chip 10 and the circuit board 110.
[0085] Regarding the connection manner between the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120, exemplarily, it can all be electrical connections capable of transmitting electrical signals, or part can be electrical connections for transmitting electrical signals and part can be heat transfer connections not for transmitting electrical signals. In this embodiment, the connection between the heat transfer plate 120 and the first chip 10 is taken as an example where part is an electrical connection for transmitting electrical signals and part is a heat transfer connection not for transmitting electrical signals. Exemplarily, between the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120, the above BGA packaging method or LGA packaging method can also be adopted, and a filling adhesive is filled to further improve the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120.
[0086] The second chip 20 is located on the side of the heat transfer plate 120 away from the circuit board 110, and the second chip 20 is connected to the heat transfer plate 120. In some examples, the second chip 20 can be a double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR SDRAM). Exemplarily, the above BGA or LGA packaging method can also be adopted between the second chip 20 and the heat transfer plate 120, and a filling adhesive is also filled to further improve the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip 20 and the heat transfer plate 120. Moreover, the connection between the heat transfer plate 120 and the second chip 20 can all be electrical connections capable of transmitting electrical signals, or part can be electrical connections for transmitting electrical signals and part can be heat transfer connections not for transmitting electrical signals. This application does not limit this, and in the embodiments of this application, the connection between the heat transfer plate 120 and the second chip 20 is taken as an example where part is an electrical connection for transmitting electrical signals and part is a heat transfer connection not for transmitting electrical signals. In this way, the second chip 20 can be electrically connected to the first chip 10 through the heat transfer plate 120, and through the heat transfer plate 120, electrical signals can be mutually transmitted between the first chip 10 and the second chip 20, and there is no need to set up redundant external leads to connect the first chip 10 and the second chip 20. And, the heat transfer plate 120 has the functions of both heat conduction and signal conduction at the same time.
[0087] The types of the above first chip 10 and second chip 20 can be the same or different. And, in addition to the above examples, the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 can also be other chips, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), or a low-power double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory, etc. The embodiments of this application do not further limit the types of the first chip 10 and the second chip 20.
[0088] In the electronic component 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application, since a heat transfer plate 120 is provided between the first chip 10 and the second chip 20, the heat of the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 can be conducted outward through the heat transfer plate 120 respectively. For example, it can be conducted outward to an external heat dissipation structure, where the external heat dissipation structure can be, for example, an air-cooled radiator, a liquid-cooled plate, a heat pipe, etc. In this way, the problem of large thermal resistance in the heat dissipation path of the first chip 10 caused by the heat of the first chip 10 needing to pass upward through the second chip 20 before heat dissipation is improved, and / or the problem of large thermal resistance in the heat dissipation path of the second chip 20 caused by the heat of the second chip 20 needing to pass downward through the first chip 10 before heat dissipation is improved. Therefore, for the electronic component 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application, the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 have high heat dissipation efficiency, can be applied to usage scenarios with greater thermal power consumption, and improve the performance of the electronic device 1000 using the electronic component 100.
[0089] One side surface of the first chip 10 close to the heat transfer plate 120 may include a plurality of first contacts. Exemplarily, when the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120 are connected by a BGA packaging method, as Figure 2 shown, the electronic component 100 may further include a plurality of first solder balls 91 located between the heat transfer plate 120 and the first chip 10. The heat transfer plate 120 is connected to the plurality of first contacts through the plurality of first solder balls 91.
[0090] Exemplarily, a plurality of first solder balls 91 between the heat transfer plate 120 and the first chip 10 may all be used to transmit electrical signals, such as data signals, control signals, etc. required during the operation of the first chip 10.
[0091] Exemplarily, there may be at least one first solder ball 91 that is not used to transmit electrical signals, such as data signals, control signals, etc. required during the operation of the first chip 10, but is used to increase heat transfer and reliability to improve the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120. At this time, a filling adhesive may also be filled in the gaps between the first solder balls 91 to further improve the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip 10 and the heat transfer plate 120.
[0092] One side surface of the second chip 20 close to the heat transfer plate 120 may include a plurality of second contacts. Exemplarily, when the second chip 20 and the heat transfer plate 120 are connected by a BGA packaging method, as Figure 2 shown, the electronic component 100 may further include a plurality of second solder balls 92 located between the heat transfer plate 120 and the second chip 20. The heat transfer plate 120 is connected to the plurality of second contacts through the plurality of second solder balls 92.
[0093] Exemplarily, multiple second solder balls 92 between the heat transfer plate 120 and the second chip 20 can all be used to transmit electrical signals, such as data signals, control signals, etc. required during the operation of the second chip 20.
[0094] Exemplarily, there can be at least one second solder ball 92 that is not used to transmit electrical signals, such as not used to transmit data signals, control signals, etc. required during the operation of the second chip 20, but is used to increase heat transfer and reliability to improve the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip 20 and the heat transfer plate 120. At this time, a filling adhesive can also be filled in the gaps between the second solder balls 92 to further improve the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip 20 and the heat transfer plate 120.
[0095] Figure 3 This is a top view of a heat transfer plate 120 provided by an embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 3 , in some embodiments, the surface of the heat transfer plate 120 facing away from the circuit board 110 includes a heat dissipation surface 1210 and a plurality of third contacts 1220. The heat dissipation surface 1210 is electrically insulated from the plurality of third contacts 1220, and the plurality of third contacts 1220 can be connected to the second chip through a plurality of second solder balls 92. In this embodiment, the third contacts 1220 can be used for heat conduction and signal conduction at the same time. The heat dissipation surface 1210 can be used to conduct heat to an external heat dissipation structure. Exemplarily, the heat dissipation surface 1210 includes a metal surface, and the metal surface has a high heat dissipation efficiency.
[0096] There are various structural forms of the heat transfer plate 120 provided by the embodiments of the present application, for example, including but not limited to the following two examples.
[0097] Heat transfer plate example one: The heat transfer plate 120 includes a PCB board, and the PCB board includes a metal layer and an insulating layer stacked. The heat dissipation surface 1210 and the third contacts 1220 can be metal surfaces exposed at the openings of the insulating layer, such as copper surfaces. Among them, the metal layer where the heat dissipation surface is located and the metal layer where the third contacts are located can be separated by the insulating layer to achieve electrical insulation.
[0098] Heat transfer plate example two, the heat transfer plate 120 is a metal plate, such as a copper plate. By drilling holes in the copper plate, insulating side walls are provided on the inner walls of the holes, and then conductive posts are provided inside the insulating side walls, third contacts with the function of conducting electrical signals can be formed. And other surfaces of the copper plate can be used as heat dissipation surfaces, so that the heat transfer plate 120 can have a higher heat transfer efficiency.
[0099] Among them, the plurality of third contacts 1220 can form at least one third contact group 1230 (that is Figure 3All the third contacts 1220 within the dashed box form a third contact group 1230). Here, a third contact group 1230 can be used to electrically connect a second chip 20. The heat dissipation surface 1210 can include a first heat dissipation surface 1211, and the first heat dissipation surface 1211 can be disposed on at least one side of the third contact group 1230. For example, for a rectangular third contact group 1230, the first heat dissipation surface 1211 can be disposed on one side, two sides, three sides or four sides of the third contact group 1230. Figure 3 Taking the example that the first heat dissipation surface 1211 is arranged in a circle around the third contact group 1230 for illustration.
[0100] Exemplarily, the area of the first heat dissipation surface 1211 is larger than the area of each third contact 1220. In this way, it is beneficial to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the first heat dissipation surface 1211.
[0101] Exemplarily, the heat dissipation surface 1210 can further include a second heat dissipation surface 1212. The heat transfer plate 120 can include vias, and the heat transfer plate 120 can further include a heat transfer portion disposed in the vias. The surface of the heat transfer portion facing away from the circuit board 110 is the second heat dissipation surface 1212. For example, vias can be drilled on the surface of the PCB board, and a heat transfer portion with a higher heat transfer efficiency than the insulating layer, such as copper, can be filled to improve the heat dissipation efficiency. The heat transfer portion here can be located around the third contact group 1230 or between any two third contacts 1220. The size relationship between the area of the second heat dissipation surface 1212 and the area of the third contact 1220 is not restricted here, as long as it does not affect the electrical connection performance between the third contact 1220 and the second chip 20.
[0102] In the embodiments of the present application, there are various ways to set the external heat dissipation structure: For example, the external heat dissipation structure can be independently arranged from the electronic component 100 and directly connected to the heat transfer plate 120 to quickly dissipate heat from the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 simultaneously. Another example is that the external heat dissipation structure can be integrated in the film layer of the circuit board 110 and then connected to the heat transfer plate 120 through a connecting portion. Since the heat can bypass the first chip 10, the thermal resistance of the second chip 20 can be reduced, and heat can be quickly dissipated from the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 simultaneously. Another example is that the external heat dissipation structure can be arranged on the side of the second chip 20 facing away from the first chip 10 and then connected to the heat transfer plate 120 through a connecting portion. Since the heat can bypass the second chip 20, the thermal resistance of the first chip 10 can be reduced, and heat can be quickly dissipated from the first chip 10 and the second chip 20 simultaneously. In the following, an example of an external heat dissipation structure is provided by way of example.
[0103] Please refer back to Figure 2 and in combination with Figure 3, in some embodiments, the external heat dissipation structure may include a first heat sink 130 and a first heat conduction structure 30. The first heat sink 130 is located on the side of the second chip 20 away from the heat transfer plate 120. The first heat conduction structure 30 connects the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat sink 130. Among them, the first heat sink 130 may be an air-cooled radiator, a liquid-cooled plate, a heat pipe, etc., and the first heat sink 130 can be directly used to dissipate heat from the second chip 20. In this embodiment, since the first heat conduction structure 30 is further provided to connect the heat dissipation surface 1210 (such as the first heat dissipation surface 1211) of the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat sink 130, the heat of the first chip 10 can be transferred to the first heat sink 130 through the heat transfer plate 120 and the second chip 20 (the thermal resistance of this path is relatively large), and can also be transferred to the first heat sink 130 through the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat conduction structure 30 (the thermal resistance of this path is relatively small), so the heat dissipation efficiency is greatly improved.
[0104] It should be noted that, in the case where the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat conduction structure 30 are not provided, when the power consumption of the first chip 10 is relatively large, the heat has not been transferred to the first heat sink, and the junction temperature of the first chip 10 has exceeded the temperature, so it is not suitable for high-power consumption scenarios. For example, for a certain type of first chip 10 with a power consumption of 4W, after the heat dissipation solution is determined, the temperature of the upper first heat sink is about 35°C, while the junction temperature of the first chip 10 has exceeded 115°C, indicating that the thermal resistance between the top of the first chip 10 and the first heat sink 130 is relatively large; further reducing the temperature of the first heat sink 130, although the junction temperature of the first chip 10 may be further reduced, the cost performance is not high. In the embodiment of the present application, since the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat conduction structure 30 are provided, the heat of the first chip 10 can be quickly transferred to the first heat sink 130, reducing the junction temperature of the first chip 10, thereby greatly improving the working performance of the first chip 10 and enabling it to meet the usage requirements of larger power consumption scenarios.
[0105] Exemplarily, the first heat conduction structure 30 may include at least one of metal, alloy, graphite, pure silicon, diamond copper, and electronic components. Among them, the metal includes, but is not limited to, one of elements such as copper, silver, and aluminum, and the alloy includes, but is not limited to, a combination of multiple elements such as copper, silver, and aluminum. Metals, alloys, graphite, and pure silicon all have relatively high heat transfer efficiency. Diamond copper, also known as diamond copper, is a composite material of metal copper and diamond, and has a higher heat transfer efficiency compared to copper. In addition, it should be noted that the electronic components may be devices with certain functions such as capacitors, inductors, and resistors. When the first heat conduction structure 30 includes electronic components, while having a heat transfer function, it can also meet some functional requirements in terms of electricity, and the practicality is higher.
[0106] In some embodiments, the first heat conduction structure 30 may be welded to the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120. For example, the first heat conduction structure 30 may be welded to the first heat dissipation surface 1211 of the heat transfer plate 120, so that the thermal resistance between the first heat conduction structure 30 and the heat transfer plate 120 can be reduced, and the heat transfer efficiency can be improved.
[0107] In some embodiments, the first heat conduction structure 30 may also cover the second heat dissipation surface 1212 of the heat transfer plate 120. For example, the first heat conduction structure 30 may also be welded to the second heat dissipation surface 1212 to further improve the heat transfer efficiency.
[0108] In some embodiments, a thermal interface material (TIM) may be filled between the first heat sink 130 and the first heat conduction structure 30. The thermal interface material has the characteristics of bridging the micro gaps of the contact interface and reducing the interface contact thermal resistance, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the first heat conduction structure 30 and the first heat sink 130 and improve the heat dissipation effect of the first chip 10.
[0109] In some embodiments, a thermal interface material (TIM) may be filled between the first heat sink 130 and the second chip 20. The thermal interface material has the characteristics of bridging the micro gaps of the contact interface and reducing the interface contact thermal resistance, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the second chip 20 and the first heat sink 130 and improve the heat dissipation effect of the second chip.
[0110] Exemplarily, the thermal interface material between the first heat sink 130 and the first heat conduction structure 30 and the thermal interface material between the first heat sink 130 and the second chip 20 may be independent structures or an integrated structure.
[0111] Figure 4 For Figure 2 a top view of the positional relationship among the heat transfer plate 120, the second chip 20, and the first heat conduction structure 30. As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the first heat conduction structure 30 is located between the heat transfer plate 120 and the first heat sink 130, and the first heat conduction structure 30 is located on at least one side of the second chip 20. In this embodiment, the first heat conduction structure 30 may be located on one side or multiple sides of the second chip 20. For example, in Figure 4 the example where, when the second chip 20 is rectangular, the first heat conduction structure 30 may be arranged to surround the second chip 20 for one week.
[0112] In addition to Figure 4 the setting manner of the first heat conduction structure 30 in, the following are also examples of the first heat conduction structure 30, including but not limited to.
[0113] The first heat conduction structure, example one: Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 which is Figure 2 another top view of the positional relationship among the heat transfer plate 120, the second chip 20, and the first heat conduction structure 30 in Figure 5 . The first heat conduction structure 30 includes a first heat conduction portion 301 that extends along a first direction, and the first direction is parallel to the plane where the heat transfer plate 120 is located. The number of the second chips 20 is multiple,
[0114] Based on the first example of the first heat conduction structure 30, exemplarily, continue to refer to Figure 5 , the first heat conduction structure 30 further includes a second heat conduction portion 302 that extends along the first direction. In the second direction, the multiple second chips 20 are located between the first heat conduction portion 301 and the second heat conduction portion 302; the second direction intersects with the first direction.
[0115] Figure 6 is a structural diagram of another electronic component 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 is a structural diagram of yet another electronic component 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 8 which is Figure 6 or Figure 7 a top view of the positional relationship among the heat transfer plate 120, the second chip 20, and the first heat conduction structure 30 in
[0116] The second heat conduction structure, example two: Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 8 , the number of the second chips 20 is multiple; the first heat conduction structure 30 can be located between at least two second chips 20.
[0117] Based on the second example of the first heat conduction structure, exemplarily, please refer to Figure 7 , the heat transfer plate 120 includes an opening; the first heat conduction structure 30 passes through the opening and is connected to the first chip 10. In this example, the first heat conduction structure 30 can be directly connected to the first chip 10, which is beneficial to further reducing the thermal resistance between the first chip 10 and the first heat sink 130 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0118] Exemplarily, a thermal interface material is filled between the first heat conduction structure 30 and the first chip 10. The thermal interface material has a high heat transfer coefficient, which can increase the heat transfer efficiency between the first chip 10 and the first heat conduction structure 30 and improve the heat dissipation effect of the first chip 10.
[0119] Exemplarily, the heat transfer plate 120 includes a first contact surface a1 and a second contact surface a2. The first contact surface a1 is the inner wall surface of the opening, and the second contact surface a2 is located on the side of the heat transfer plate 120 away from the first chip 10, and the second contact surface a2 can surround the opening. The first heat conductive structure 30 can be connected to at least one of the first contact surface a1 and the second contact surface a2. The connection method here includes but is not limited to direct contact, gluing, welding and the like. In this example, when the first heat conductive structure 30 is connected to the first contact surface a1 and / or the second contact surface a2, the thermal resistance between the first heat conductive structure 30 and the heat transfer plate 120 can be reduced, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency.
[0120] In the above description, the heat transfer plate 120 is designed to be independent of the first chip 10 as an example. In the following description, a solution of integrating the heat transfer plate 120 into the first chip 10 is introduced.
[0121] Figure 9 This is a structural diagram of another electronic component 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 10 A structural diagram of another electronic component 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 11 A structural diagram of another electronic component 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 12 for Figure 9 , Figure 10 or Figure 11 A top view of the positional relationship among the first chip 10, the second chip 20 and the first heat conducting structure 30. Figure 13 A structural diagram of another electronic component 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 14 for Figure 13 A top view of the positional relationship among the first chip 10, the second chip 20 and the first heat conducting structure 30.
[0122] See also Figure 9 and Figure 13 The embodiment of the present application provides a chip structure 200, specifically: the heat transfer plate 120 is integrated into the chip structure 200. The chip structure 200 can be used as the first chip 10 and applied in the electronic component 100. Hereinafter, the chip structure 200 is taken as the first chip 10 for introduction.
[0123] The first chip 10 may expose the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120 (refer to Figure 3 ) and a plurality of third contacts 1230 (refer to Figure 3) That is to say, the surface of the first chip 10 facing away from the circuit board 110 includes the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120 and a plurality of third contacts 1230. Among them, the heat dissipation surface 1210 can be used to connect to the first heat conduction structure 30, and the plurality of third contacts 1230 can be used to connect to the second chip 20. In this embodiment, the heat transfer plate 120 is integrated into the chip structure 200, so that the heat in the first chip 10 can be more easily exported from the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120, improving the heat dissipation effect of the first chip 10.
[0124] Refer to Figure 12 and Figure 14 , for the solution of integrating the above heat transfer plate 120 into the first chip 10, the arrangement manner of the first heat conduction structure 30 can still refer to any of the previous embodiments. For example, as Figure 12 shown, the first heat conduction structure 30 can still be arranged in a circle around the second chip 20. Another example, as Figure 14 shown, the first heat conduction structure 30 can still be arranged on one side of the second chip 20. In other embodiments, the first heat conduction structure 30 can also be arranged on any one side or multiple sides of the second chip 20, and the present application does not limit this.
[0125] Refer to Figure 10 , in some embodiments, the chip structure 200 can include a first die 101, a heat transfer plate 120, and a first protection part 102; the heat transfer plate 120 is arranged on one side of the first die 101. The surface of the heat transfer plate 120 facing away from the first die 101 includes a heat dissipation surface 1210 (which can be referred back to Figure 3 ) and a plurality of third contacts 1230 (which can be referred back to Figure 3 ), the heat dissipation surface 1210 is electrically insulated from the plurality of third contacts 1230; the first protection part 102 surrounds the first die 101 and the heat transfer plate 120, and the first protection part 102 exposes the heat dissipation surface 1210 and the third contacts 1230. With such an arrangement, the heat in the first chip 10 can be more easily exported from the heat dissipation surface 1210 of the heat transfer plate 120, improving the heat dissipation effect of the first chip 10.
[0126] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, the first protection part 102 includes a first encapsulation substrate 1021 and a first plastic encapsulation part 1022; the surface of the first die 101 facing away from the heat transfer plate 120 is connected to the first encapsulation substrate 1021; the first plastic encapsulation part 1022 is connected to the first encapsulation substrate 1021 and at least surrounds all or part of the side surface of the first die 101 and the surface of the heat transfer plate 120 facing away from the first die 101.
[0127] Exemplarily, the heat transfer plate 120 and the first encapsulation substrate 1021 can be connected by the above BGA encapsulation method or LGA encapsulation method.
[0128] Exemplarily, the chip structure 200 further includes a heat conducting part 103, which is located within the first encapsulation part 1022, and the heat conducting part 103 connects the first encapsulation substrate 1021 and the heat transfer plate 120. Among them, the heat conducting part 103 can be the third solder ball 1031, and the number of arranged third solder balls 1031 can be multiple. For example, at least one circle of third solder balls 1031 is arranged around the first die 101, and the third solder balls 1031 in each circle are arranged at intervals.
[0129] In this embodiment, by arranging the heat conducting part 103 to connect the first encapsulation substrate 1021 and the heat transfer plate 120, the heat in the first chip 10 can be more easily transferred to the heat transfer plate 120, so as to be conducted to the first heat conducting structure 30 and the first heat sink 130 through the heat dissipation surface of the heat transfer plate 120, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0130] Exemplarily, as Figure 11 shown, the chip structure 200 further includes a connecting plate 104, which is laminated between the first die 101 and the heat transfer plate 120, and the connecting plate 104 is in contact with both the first die 101 and the heat transfer plate 120 at the same time.
[0131] In this example, by adding the connecting plate 104, the heat of the first die 101 can be better conducted to the heat transfer plate 120, with higher heat transfer efficiency, and the first chip 10 is less likely to have a junction temperature.
