[0075] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0076] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0077] An embodiment of the present invention provides a fan-out packaging structure. Figure 1 This is an exploded diagram of a fan-out packaging structure provided by an embodiment of the present invention, refer to Figure 1 , the fan-out packaging structure includes:

[0078] Power supply substrate 10;

[0079] The adapter plate 20 is located on one side of the power supply substrate 10 and is electrically connected to the power supply substrate 10;

[0080] The redistribution layer 30 is located on a side of the adapter board 20 away from the power supply substrate 10 and is electrically connected to the adapter board 20;

[0081] The functional chip layer 40 is located on a side of the redistribution layer 30 away from the power supply substrate 10 and is electrically connected to the redistribution layer 30;

[0082] Among them, the adapter board 20 includes an organic plastic sealing layer 22 and multiple conductive capacitor chips encapsulated in the organic plastic sealing layer; a through silicon via (TSV) is provided in the conductive capacitor chip, and a first conductive column 01 is provided in the through silicon via silicon of the conductive capacitor chip. The first conductive column 01 is used to provide the power signal of the power supply substrate 10 to the functional chip in the functional chip layer 40 through the redistribution layer 30.

[0083] Specifically, the power supply substrate 10 serves as a packaging substrate, which is used to provide a stable power supply signal for the functional chips in the functional chip layer 40 to ensure the normal operation of the functional chips in the functional chip layer 40. The functional chip layer 40 and the power supply substrate 10 are electrically connected through an interposer 20 and a redistribution layer 30 (RDL). In packaging technology, the interposer 20 and the redistribution layer 30 are two key structures, which respectively assume different functions and work together to achieve efficient interconnection between the functional chip and the power supply substrate 10. The interposer 20 is an intermediary layer located between the functional chip and the power supply substrate 10. It plays the role of a "bridge" in 2.5D / 3D packaging, connecting the power supply substrate 10 and the functional chip. Among them, the interposer 20 realizes vertical power signal transmission through silicon vias (TSV); the interposer 20 is also used to provide stable physical support for the stacked chips. The redistribution layer 30 is a wiring layer that redistributes the positions of the chip I / O (input and output) pins, and is used to rearrange the pads of the functional chip to an area suitable for package connection; the redistribution layer 30 is also used to optimize the wiring paths of power, ground and signals, and reduce signal crosstalk.

[0084] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention divides a large-size silicon interposer into multiple small-size conductive capacitor chips with TSV, and then integrates the multiple small-size conductive capacitor chips into an organic and inorganic hybrid interposer 20 by plastic encapsulation of organic materials. A redistribution layer 30 is distributed on this interposer 20 to achieve signal interconnection, replacing the silicon interposer in the current mainstream 2.5D package. Since the organic material used to plastic encapsulate multiple conductive capacitor chips is softer than the silicon material, it can improve the force buffering effect and reduce the stress burden, thereby improving the package warping and internal stress concentration problems; moreover, the interposer 20 is formed by plastic encapsulating multiple conductive capacitor chips with organic materials. The size of the interposer 20 can be set as needed without being restricted by the size of the mask, which is conducive to the development of large-size AI chips. In addition, the interposer 20 is formed by plastic encapsulating multiple conductive capacitor chips with organic materials. Compared with the large-size silicon interposer in the prior art, the yield of deep trench capacitors can be improved, and the problem of too low density of effective DTC contained in the silicon interposer is improved.

[0085] On the basis of the above embodiments, optionally, the conductive capacitor chip in the adapter plate 20 includes a deep trench capacitor chip (Deep Trench Capacitor DIE, DTC DIE) provided with a through silicon via, and / or an integrated silicon capacitor chip (Integrated Silicon Cap DIE, ISC DIE) provided with a through silicon via. A plurality of conductive capacitor chips are distributed in the same layer in the organic plastic layer 22, so that the power supply signal on the power supply substrate 10 is provided to the chips at different positions above the adapter plate 20 through the through silicon vias in the conductive capacitor chips at different positions. Among them, a plurality of micro conductive bumps C4 Bump are provided on the surface of the adapter plate 20 close to the side of the power supply substrate 10. The micro conductive bumps C4 Bump can achieve high-density and high-performance interconnection between the conductive capacitor chip and the power supply substrate 10.

[0086] Optional, Figure 2 This is a partial structural cross-sectional view of a conductive capacitor chip provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 A partial enlarged diagram of the middle area Q1, see Figure 2 , the conductive capacitor chip 21 includes:

[0087] The silicon substrate 201 includes a first surface and a second surface relative to each other, wherein the second surface is the surface of the silicon substrate 201 on the side close to the power supply substrate 10. The silicon substrate 201 is provided with a through-silicon via (TSV) penetrating the silicon substrate 201, and a first conductive pillar 01 is provided in the TSV. The second surface of the silicon substrate 201 is provided with a backside redistribution layer 204. The first conductive pillar 01 provided in the TSV is electrically connected to a micro-conductive bump C4 in the backside redistribution layer 204. The conductive capacitor chip 21 is electrically connected to the power supply substrate 10 via the micro-conductive bump C4.

[0088] The first metal layer M1 is located on the first surface of the silicon substrate 201 ; wherein the first metal layer M1 includes a first connection layer S1 , and the first conductive pillars O1 are integrally provided with the first connection layer S1 ;

[0089] A first insulating layer 202 is located on a surface of the first metal layer M1 away from the silicon substrate 201 and on a first surface not covered by the first metal layer M1. A through hole is provided in the first insulating layer 202, and a second conductive pillar 02 is provided in the through hole. An end of the second conductive pillar 02 that is close to the power supply substrate 10 is electrically connected to the first connection layer S1.

[0090] The second metal layer M2 is located on the surface of the first insulating layer 202 away from the silicon substrate 201; the second metal layer M2 includes a second connection layer S2, and the second connection layer S2 is integrally provided with the second conductive pillar O2;

[0091] A second insulating layer 203 is located on a surface of the second metal layer M2 away from the silicon substrate 201 and a surface of the first insulating layer 202 not covered by the second metal layer M2; wherein the second insulating layer 203 is provided with an opening exposing the second connecting layer S2;

[0092] The third metal layer M3 is located in the opening; the third metal layer M3 located in the opening is used as a pad PAD connected to the second connection layer S2.

[0093] Specifically, the integrated arrangement of the first conductive pillar 01 and the first connection layer S1 can be understood as meaning that the first conductive pillar 01 and the first connection layer S1 are formed in the same fabrication process. The first conductive pillar 01 is formed by filling the through-silicon via with the material of the first metal layer M1, and the first connection layer S1 is formed by depositing the material of the first metal layer M1 on the first surface of the silicon substrate 201. The first insulating layer 202 is located on the surface of the first metal layer M1 facing away from the silicon substrate 201 and on the first surface not covered by the first metal layer M1. The first insulating layer 202 can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. The first insulating layer 202 can be an inorganic material layer, an organic material layer, or a stack of organic and inorganic material layers. A through hole is provided in the first insulating layer 202, and the second conductive pillar 02 is disposed in the through hole. The end of the second conductive pillar 02 proximal to the power supply substrate 10 is electrically connected to the first connection layer S1, thereby establishing an electrical connection between the first conductive pillar 01 and the second conductive pillar 02.

[0094] The vertical projection of the through-silicon via on the silicon substrate 201 is located within the vertical projection of the first connection layer S1 on the silicon substrate 201, so that the first conductive pillar 01 is in direct contact with the first connection layer S1. The vertical projection of the through-hole penetrating the first insulating layer 202 on the silicon substrate 201 is located within the vertical projection of the first connection layer S1 on the silicon substrate 201, so that the second conductive pillar 02 is in direct contact with the first connection layer S1. The vertical projection of the through-silicon via on the silicon substrate 201 and the vertical projection of the through-hole penetrating the first insulating layer 202 on the silicon substrate 201 at least partially do not overlap, that is, the first conductive pillar 01 and the second conductive pillar 02 can be staggered in the thickness direction of the silicon substrate 201. The first conductive pillar 01 and the second conductive pillar 02 are electrically connected through the first connection layer S1, which reduces the difficulty of electrical connection between the first conductive pillar 01 and the second conductive pillar 02 compared to a method in which the first conductive pillar 01 and the second conductive pillar 02 are in direct contact.

[0095] The second metal layer M2 is located on the surface of the first insulating layer 202 away from the silicon substrate 201. The material of the second metal layer M2 and the first metal layer M1 can be the same or different. The second metal layer M2 includes a second connection layer S2, which is integrally provided with the second conductive pillars 02. It can be understood that the second conductive pillars 02 and the second connection layer S2 are formed in the same preparation process. The second conductive pillars 02 are formed by filling the through holes penetrating the first insulating layer 202 with the material of the second metal layer M2. The second connection layer S2 is formed by depositing the material of the second metal layer M2 on the surface of the first insulating layer 202 away from the silicon substrate 201.

[0096] The second insulating layer 203 is located on the surface of the second metal layer M2 away from the silicon substrate 201 and the surface of the first insulating layer 202 not covered by the second metal layer M2. The second insulating layer 203 can be an inorganic material layer or an organic material layer, or can be formed by stacking an organic material layer and an inorganic material layer. The second insulating layer 203 has an opening that exposes the second connection layer S2. The third metal layer M3 located in the opening is used as a pad PAD connecting the second connection layer S2. The pad PAD is electrically connected to the redistribution layer 30 on the side away from the second connection layer S2, thereby realizing an electrical connection between the conductive capacitor chip and the redistribution layer 30. Optionally, the distance from the surface of the third metal layer M3 located in the opening away from the silicon substrate 201 to the silicon substrate 201 is less than or equal to the distance from the surface of the second insulating layer 203 away from the silicon substrate 201 to the silicon substrate 201, which can prevent the pad PAD located in the opening from protruding from the surface of the second insulating layer 203 and being subjected to external wear.

[0097] The conductive capacitor chip 21 provided in the embodiment of the present invention is only filled with DTC / ISC to maximize the effective capacitor area. Compared with the silicon adapter board with DTC and TSV in CoWoS-L (Local Silicon Interconnect and RDL Interposer) in the related art, which adopts 5 metal layers, the number of metal layers can be reduced, and only three metal layers, namely the first metal layer M1, the second metal layer M2 and the third metal layer M3, are required.

[0098] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 1 Optionally, the adapter board 20 also includes a plurality of through-mold vias (TMVs) penetrating the organic plastic layer 22, and the plastic conductive vias are used to provide the power signal of the power supply substrate 10 to the functional chip in the functional chip layer 40 through the redistribution layer 30; a third conductive column 03 is provided in the plastic conductive via; wherein the power voltage transmitted by the plastic conductive via is greater than the power voltage transmitted by the silicon through via in the conductive capacitor chip.

[0099] TMV is a cost-effective vertical interconnect solution for advanced packaging, achieving high-density electrical connections through conductive channels in the molding compound. Multiple conductive capacitor chips 21, multiple third conductive pillars 03, and a power supply substrate 10 can be integrally encapsulated in organic molding compound. The third conductive pillars 03 penetrate the organic molding compound, automatically forming through-holes to accommodate the third conductive pillars 03 after molding. This eliminates the need for laser drilling to form conductive vias through the organic molding layer 22, simplifying the fabrication of the conductive vias.

[0100] On the basis of the above embodiments, optionally, Figure 3is a partial structural cross-sectional view of a redistribution layer provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is Figure 1 A partial enlarged diagram of the middle area Q2, see Figure 3 The redistribution layer 30 includes multiple layers of organic insulating layers 301 and multiple layers of conductive trace layers 302, which are arranged alternately. The outermost layer of the redistribution layer 300 is the organic insulating layer 301, which is made of polyimide and / or epoxy molding compound. The use of organic materials in the insulating layer of the redistribution layer 300 provides a better force buffering effect, reduces the stress burden on the flip-chip bumps, and provides high design layout freedom and excellent electrical performance.

[0101] Among them, the multi-layer conductive routing layer 302 can be arranged in a manner that alternates ground lines and signal lines. The GSGSG (Ground / Signal / Ground / Signal / Ground) wiring structure is an efficient layout strategy that alternates ground (GND) and signal (Signal) lines to shield noise and optimize signal integrity. Each signal line (S) is wrapped by ground lines (G) on both sides to form a local shield. The ground line acts as a low-impedance return path, absorbing the electric and magnetic fields generated by the signal line, reducing crosstalk between adjacent signal lines; it can also shorten the signal transmission distance to reduce the parasitic RC value.

The six conductive trace layers are respectively RDL1, RDL2, RDL3, RDL4, RDL5, and RDL6. The seven organic insulation layers are respectively PSV1, PSV2, PSV3, PSV4, PSV5, PSV6, and PSV7. The conductive trace layers may be copper layers with a thickness of 4 μm, and the thickness of the organic insulation layers between the metal layers is 5 μm. In the ubbump area, the line width is 2 μm, and the line spacing is 2 μm. In the non-ubbump area, i.e., the interconnection area between the ASIC chip and the HBM chip, the line width is 2 μm, and the line spacing is up to 4.6 μm. All high-speed signals are distributed on the inner layers, and both the same layer and adjacent layers are shielded by ground planes to maximize noise shielding.

A redistribution layer 30 is distributed on this adapter plate 20 to achieve signal interconnection, replacing the silicon adapter plate in the current mainstream 2.5D package. Since the organic material used to encapsulate the multiple conductive capacitor chips 21 is softer than the silicon material, it can improve the force buffering effect and reduce the stress burden, thereby improving the package warping and internal stress concentration problems; moreover, the method of using organic materials to encapsulate multiple conductive capacitor chips 21 can set the size of the adapter plate 20 as required, without being restricted by the size of the mask, which is conducive to the development of large-scale AI chips.

The plastic-encapsulated conductive vias are used to provide the power signal of the power supply substrate 10 to the functional chip in the functional chip layer 40 through the redistribution layer 30. The plastic-encapsulated conductive vias include a third conductive pillar 03 that penetrates the organic plastic layer 22. The power voltage transmitted by the plastic-encapsulated conductive vias is greater than the power voltage transmitted by the silicon-through vias in the conductive capacitor chip.
