Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] It should be noted that: similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in the subsequent drawings.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] It should be noted that the different features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0026] The inventor has found that, at present, referring to Figure 1a and Figure 1b , the width L1' of the sealing assembly on the board-level electroplating clamp 100' is usually 4.29 mm, and the opening width L2' of the photoresist 210' is usually 5.2 mm. The width of the sealing assembly on the board-level electroplating clamp 100' is less than the opening width of the photoresist 210', which can cause the sealing assembly to not completely cover the opening area of the photoresist 210', so that the seed layer 220' located on both sides of the sealing assembly is exposed to the electroplating solution, forming additional metal deposition, which can affect the flatness of the circuit and cause defects such as short circuit or open circuit, thereby reducing the yield of the chip.

[0027] In addition, the sealing assembly and the conductive contact of the board-level electroplating clamp 100' are designed in an integrated structure. If there is an uneven area of the seed layer 220' of the product, the conductive contact can not be in good contact with the seed layer 220', or the seed layer 220' can be damaged.

[0028] Therefore, the embodiment provides a solution to solve the above problems. The solution provided by the embodiment is described in detail as follows.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 A structure diagram of the board-level electroplating clamp 100 provided by the example embodiment is shown in FIG. 1. The board-level electroplating clamp 100 can include a sealing assembly 110 and a plurality of conductive contact pieces 120. The sealing assembly 110 can be used to seal the opening area of the photoresist 210 at the edge of the product. The plurality of conductive contact pieces 120 can be used to contact the seed layer 220 at the edge of the product to achieve current conduction.

[0030] The board-level electroplating clamp 100 can further include a clamp body 140 made of conductive material. The clamp body 140 is electrically connected to the plurality of conductive contact pieces 120, so that the current is conducted to the conductive contact pieces 120 through the clamp body 140, and then transmitted to the seed layer 220, achieving stable power supply. In addition, the clamp body 140 and the plurality of conductive contact pieces 120 can be an integral structure.

[0031] The sealing assembly 110 covers the clamp body 140, which is used to prevent the clamp body 140 from being damaged and to isolate the electroplating solution from corroding the clamp body 140, ensuring the stability and reliability of current conduction. The side of the sealing assembly 110 facing the product is provided with a protruding structure 130. The protruding structure 130 can cooperate with the photoresist 210 provided on one side of the product to form a sealed area at the edge of the product. The shape of the sealed area can be rectangular, and the protruding structure 130 can be in contact with the four sides of the sealed area.

[0032] Before electroplating, the photoresist 210 can be coated on the surface of the product, and the target pattern area to be electroplated and the opening area at the edge of the product can be formed on the surface of the product by a photolithography process. The opening area can be used to cooperate with the board-level electroplating clamp 100 to achieve electrical contact and sealing of the seed layer 220 at the edge of the product.

[0033] In the embodiment, the side of the sealing assembly 110 facing the product is provided with two protruding structures 130. The two protruding structures 130 have a gap corresponding to the opening area of the photoresist 210 at the edge of the product. The two protruding structures 130 can cooperate with the photoresist 210 on both sides of the opening area, respectively, so as to completely cover and seal the opening area of the photoresist 210, preventing the electroplating solution from seeping into the seed layer 220 in the area to cause metal deposition.

[0034] The plurality of conductive contacts 120 are evenly distributed along the extension direction of the sealing area, and gaps are formed between the conductive contacts 120 and the protruding structures 130. The orthographic projection of the conductive contacts 120 on the product is located in the clamping area of the product, and the conductive contacts 120 are in contact with the seed layer 220 of the product, for providing current to the product during electroplating. The clamping area can be located at the edge of the product.

[0035] In the embodiment, the plurality of conductive contacts 120 can be located in the gaps between the two protruding structures 130, and are evenly arranged along the extension direction of the sealing area. The distance between the plurality of conductive contacts 120 and the two protruding structures 130 is equal. The plurality of conductive contacts 120 can be in contact with the seed layer 220 exposed by the photoresist 210, so as to ensure uniform current conduction to the seed layer 220. The plurality of conductive contacts 120 can have the same shape and size.

[0036] In some examples, the conductive contacts 120 can be conductive pins, and the material of the conductive contacts 120 can be a metal material, for example, copper.

[0037] Based on the above design, in the board-level electroplating clamp 100 provided in the embodiment, by arranging the protruding structures 130 on the side of the sealing assembly 110 facing the product, and making the protruding structures 130 cooperate with the photoresist 210 arranged on one side of the product, a sealing area is formed in the clamping area of the product. The seed layer 220 in this area can be completely sealed, effectively preventing the problem of metal deposition in the non-electroplating area caused by the invasion of the electroplating solution. Meanwhile, by making the plurality of evenly distributed conductive contacts 120 in contact with the seed layer 220, uniform current conduction can be ensured, and the thickness consistency and surface quality of the electroplating layer can be improved, so as to improve the uniformity of electroplating.

[0038] In a possible implementation, referring again to Figure 2 , the protruding structure 130 can include a first protruding part and a second protruding part arranged in sequence in the direction close to the conductive contact 120. In the direction perpendicular to the product, the height of the second protruding part can be greater than the height of the first protruding part. The height difference L3 between the second protruding part and the first protruding part can be 130 microns to 150 microns.

[0039] In the embodiment, the protruding structure 130 on both sides of the conductive contact 120 can include a first protruding part and a second protruding part arranged in sequence towards the conductive contact 120, and the first protruding part and the second protruding part can form a stepped sealing structure, and the protruding height of the second protruding part can be greater than the protruding height of the first protruding part. For different photoresist 210 opening areas, the first protruding part 131 or the second protruding part 132 can be selected according to the width to cooperate with the photoresist 210, so that the seed layer 220 can be prevented from being damaged due to excessive pressure when the conductive contact 120 contacts the seed layer 220, and the conductive contact 120 can also be prevented from being in poor contact with the seed layer 220.

[0040] In some examples, the height difference L3 between the second protruding part and the first protruding part can be 130 microns, 132 microns, 135 microns, 138 microns, 140 microns, 143 microns, 144 microns, 145 microns, 146 microns, and 150 microns, etc. Preferably, the height difference L3 between the second protruding part and the first protruding part is 140 microns.

[0041] In the above design, by setting the protruding structure 130 to include the first protruding part and the second protruding part to form a stepped structure, different widths of the photoresist 210 opening area can be effectively adapted, the compatibility of the board-level electroplating clamp 100 is improved, the seed layer 220 is prevented from being damaged or in poor contact, and stable and reliable electrical connection between the conductive contact 120 and the seed layer 220 is ensured.

[0042] In a possible implementation, please refer to Figure 3 The shape of the surface of the first protruding part 131 towards the product side can include a sawtooth shape, that is, the surface of the first protruding part 131 towards the product side can be composed of a plurality of continuously distributed arc surfaces, and the curvature radius of each arc surface is consistent.

[0043] In the embodiment, the shape of the surface of the second protruding part 132 towards the product side can be arc-shaped, and the shape of the surface of the first protruding part 131 towards the product side can be sawtooth-shaped, with the tips of the sawteeth towards the product surface, which has better toughness when clamping the product and can enhance the sealing effect of the fitting with the edge of the photoresist 210.

[0044] In other examples, please refer again to Figure 2 The shape of the surface of the second protruding part 132 towards the product side can be arc-shaped, and the surface of the first protruding part 131 towards the product side can also be planar, which can be designed according to actual needs and is not specifically limited here.

[0045] In a possible implementation, please refer to Figure 4The first protruding part 131 and the second protruding part 132 are in at least partial overlap with the photoresist 210 on the product.

[0046] In some examples, for a thinner photoresist 210, the width of the photoresist 210 opening area is smaller, which can be 3.5 microns. In this case, the second protruding part 132 can be selected to be in contact with the edge of the photoresist 210, while the first protruding part 131 has a gap with the photoresist 210. The second protruding part 132 and the first protruding part 131 are both in the projection of the photoresist 210 on the product. Through the cooperation of the second protruding part 132 and the photoresist 210, the sealing and contact stability can be ensured.

[0047] In a possible implementation, please refer to Figure 5 The first protruding part 131 is in at least partial overlap with the photoresist 210 on the product. The second protruding part 132 is not in overlap with the photoresist 210 on the product.

[0048] In some examples, for a thicker photoresist 210, the width of the photoresist 210 opening area is larger, which can be 8.5 microns. In this case, the first protruding part 131 can be selected to be in contact with the edge of the photoresist 210. The first protruding part 131 is in at least partial overlap with the photoresist 210 on the product. The second protruding part 132 is not in overlap with the photoresist 210 on the product. The second protruding part 132 is in the projection of the photoresist 210 opening area on the product. The second protruding part 132 has a gap with the seed layer 220 exposed by the photoresist 210. Through the cooperation of the first protruding part 121 and the photoresist 210, the sealing and contact stability can be ensured.

[0049] In the above structure, by setting the first protruding part 131 or the second protruding part 132 in contact with the edge of the photoresist 210, the contact mode can be flexibly adjusted according to the thickness of the photoresist 210, thereby effectively improving the sealing adaptation ability of the product edge under different process conditions and ensuring the stable conduction between the conductive contact 120 and the seed layer 220. At the same time, it can also avoid poor contact between the conductive contact 120 and the seed layer 220, or damage to the seed layer 220.

[0050] In a possible implementation, please refer again to Figure 2 In the direction perpendicular to the product, the height difference L4 between the conductive contact 120 and the second protruding part can include 150 microns to 170 microns.

[0051] In some examples, the height difference L4 between the conductive contact 120 and the second protrusion can be 150 micrometers, 151 micrometers, 152 micrometers, 155 micrometers, 156 micrometers, 160 micrometers, 162 micrometers, 165 micrometers, 168 micrometers, and 170 micrometers, etc. Preferably, the height difference L4 between the conductive contact 120 and the second protrusion can be 160 micrometers.

[0052] In one possible implementation, please refer again. Figure 2 The distance L5 between the conductive contact 120 and the raised structure 130 can range from 2 mm to 4 mm.

[0053] In this embodiment, the spacing L6 between the protrusions 130 on both sides of the conductive contact 120 can be 4 mm to 8 mm. Preferably, the spacing L6 between the protrusions 130 on both sides of the conductive contact 120 can be 6 mm.

[0054] In some examples, the distance L5 between the conductive contact 120 and the protrusion 130 can be 2 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.7 mm, 3 mm, 3.2 mm, 3.4 mm, 3.6 mm, 3.8 mm, and 4 mm, etc. Preferably, the distance L5 between the conductive contact 120 and the protrusion 130 is 3 mm.

[0055] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 6 In the extending direction of the plate-level electroplating fixture 100, the distance L7 between the orthographic projection edge of the conductive contact 120 on the product and the orthographic projection edge of the photoresist 210 on the product ranges from 5 mm to 15 mm. That is, in the extending direction of the plate-level electroplating fixture 100, the width of the photoresist 210 retention area on both sides of the conductive contact 120 is from 5 mm to 15 mm.

[0056] In some examples, the product is rectangular in shape, which may include a first side 101 and a second side 102 arranged opposite each other, and a third side 103 and a fourth side 104 for connecting the first side 101 and the second side 102. The lengths of the first side 101 and the second side 102 may be 510 mm, and the lengths of the third side 103 and the fourth side 104 may be 515 mm. A plate-level electroplating fixture 100 may be located on both sides near the third side 103 and the fourth side 104 of the product for effective sealing and conductive contact at the edge regions of the third side 103 and the fourth side 104. The extending direction of the plate-level electroplating fixture 100 may be parallel to the extending direction of the third side 103 and the fourth side 104. The width L8 of the plate-level electroplating fixture 100 may be from 7 mm to 19 mm.

[0057] In the extension direction of the board-level electroplating clamp 100, the distance L7 between the edge of the front projection of the conductive contact 120 on the product and the edge of the front projection of the photoresist 210 on the product can be 8.5 mm, 9 mm, 9.5 mm, 10 mm, 10.5 mm, 11 mm, 11.5 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, and 13.5 mm, etc. The distance between the edge of the front projection of the conductive contact 120 on the product and the first edge 101 or the second edge 102 of the product can be 14 mm.

[0058] In the above design, by setting the distance between the edge of the front projection of the conductive contact 120 on the product and the edge of the front projection of the photoresist 210 on the product to be in the range of 5 mm to 15 mm, it can be ensured that the conductive contact 120 only contacts the seed layer 220 exposed by the photoresist 210, thereby effectively preventing short circuit or current leakage problems caused by contacting the photoresist 210 during electroplating, and improving electroplating uniformity and yield.

[0059] In a possible implementation, the material of the protruding structure 130 can include fluororubber, which has a certain elasticity and can be deformed to achieve a sealing effect under pressure.

[0060] It should be noted that the material of the protruding structure 130 is not limited to fluororubber, and high-molecular materials such as silicone and ethylene-propylene-diene rubber having good chemical resistance and elasticity can also be selected to meet the sealing requirements in different process environments, which are not limited here.

[0061] In addition, the material of the sealing assembly 110 used to cover the clamp body 140 can be the same as that of the protruding structure 130, i.e., fluororubber, and the sealing assembly 110 used to cover the clamp body 140 and the protruding structure 130 can be an integrally formed structure.

[0062] The embodiment of the present application also provides an electroplating device, which can include the board-level electroplating clamp 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0063] In summary, the embodiment provides a board-level electroplating clamp and an electroplating device. By arranging a protruding structure on the side of the sealing assembly facing the product and cooperating the protruding structure with the photoresist arranged on one side of the product, a sealing area is formed in the clamping area of the product, the seed layer in this area can be completely sealed, and the problem of metal deposition in the non-electroplating area caused by the invasion of the electroplating solution can be effectively prevented. At the same time, by contacting the seed layer through multiple uniformly distributed conductive contacts, it can be ensured that the current is uniformly introduced, the thickness consistency and surface quality of the electroplating layer are improved, and the uniformity of electroplating is improved.
