[0005] The present invention relates to capacitor bank structures and semiconductor package structures comprising at least one capacitor, as well as methods for manufacturing the same. Background Technology

[0006] With advancements in microelectronics technology, semiconductor devices are becoming increasingly smaller, leading to lower operating voltages for overall electronic systems. This makes voltage stability a critical issue. To achieve voltage stability, more electronic components (such as decoupling capacitors) should be integrated at the power supply of the electronic system. Besides providing a more stable power output, decoupling capacitors effectively reduce noise from electronic components coupled to the power supply, indirectly reducing the impact of noise on other electronic devices and suppressing unwanted radiation. In other words, they effectively suppress voltage surges when the electronic system is powered off and suppress voltage drops when the system is powered on. Summary of the Invention

[0068] Common reference numerals are used throughout the drawings and detailed description to indicate the same or similar components. Embodiments of the invention will be readily understood from the detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0069] The following discloses numerous different embodiments or instances providing various features for implementing the provided subject matter. Specific examples of components and arrangements are described below to illustrate certain aspects of the invention. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to be limiting. For example, in the following description, references to the formation of a first feature on or on a second feature may include embodiments in which the first and second features are formed or disposed in direct contact, and may also include embodiments in which additional features are formed or disposed between the first and second features such that the first and second features do not directly contact each other. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in various instances of the invention. This repetition is for simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or configurations discussed.

[0070] In comparative packaging structures, capacitors, such as decoupling capacitors, can be positioned as close as possible to the semiconductor die or hot spot to increase their effectiveness. That is, the capacitor can be mounted on one side of the semiconductor die, on a substrate pad, or embedded in the substrate. These three types are described below. In the first type, the capacitor mounted on the side of the semiconductor die is called a "Die Side Capacitor (DSC)". The capacitor and semiconductor die are mounted side-by-side to the substrate. While DSCs are easy to package, the disadvantages are long current paths and excessive area wastage. In the second type, the capacitor embedded within the substrate is called an "Embedded Capacitor (ECC)". While ECCs offer better performance than DSCs, the substrate housing an ECC is relatively thick. Furthermore, the assembly cost of ECCs can be relatively high. In the third type, the capacitor mounted on a land pad on the bottom surface of the substrate is called a "Land Side Capacitor (LSC)". While LSCs do not have the thickness and cost issues compared to ECCs, LSCs reduce the number of solder balls. In addition, LSC increases the size of the solder balls.

[0071] At least some embodiments of the present invention provide a semiconductor package structure comprising at least one capacitor disposed between a semiconductor device and a conductive structure. This shortens the decoupling loop and increases the ball-mount area on the bottom surface of the conductive structure.

[0072] Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of a capacitor bank structure 1 according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. The capacitor bank structure 1 may include one or more capacitors 12, protective material 13 (e.g., including a first protective material 13a and a second protective material 13b), a first dielectric layer 14, a plurality of first pillars 15, a plurality of conductive pads 16, a second dielectric layer 17, a third dielectric layer 18, a plurality of second pillars 19, and a plurality of conductive pillars 11.

[0073] Capacitors 12 are arranged side-by-side. Capacitors 12 can be either double-sided decoupling capacitors or single-sided decoupling capacitors. For example... Figure 1As shown, each of the capacitors 12 is a two-sided decoupling capacitor and has a first surface 121 and a second surface 122 opposite to the first surface 121, and includes a plurality of first electrodes 123 and a plurality of second electrodes 124. The first electrodes 123 are disposed adjacent to the first surface 121 of the capacitor 12 for external connection, and the second electrodes 124 are disposed adjacent to the second surface 122 of the capacitor 12 for external connection. That is, both sides of the capacitor 12 (e.g., the first surface 121 and the second surface 122) can be used for electrical connection. Furthermore, the first surface 121 is electrically connected to the second surface 122. Therefore, the first electrodes 123 on the first surface 121 can be electrically connected to the second electrodes 124 on the second surface 122. It should be noted that the number of first electrodes 123 may be equal to or different from the number of second electrodes 124. Additionally, each of the first electrodes 123 has a first surface 1231 and a sidewall 1233, and each of the second electrodes 124 has a sidewall 1243. The thickness of each of the capacitors 12 may be less than 50 μm or less than 30 μm.

[0074] The conductive pad 16 is electrically connected to the second electrode 124 of the capacitor 12. In some embodiments, the conductive pad 16 may be a copper layer and may further include at least one surface-trimmed layer (e.g., a nickel (Ni) layer 161 and a gold (Au) layer 162). The Au layer 162 of the surface-trimmed layer of the conductive pad 16 is connected or bonded to the second electrode 124 of the capacitor 12 via a solder layer 125. Figure 1 As shown, each of the conductive pads 16 has a second surface 164 and a sidewall 163.

[0075] Protective material 13 covers capacitor 12, the sidewall 1233 of the first electrode 123, the sidewall 1243 of the second electrode 124, and the sidewall 163 of the conductive pad 16. For example... Figure 1 As shown, protective material 13 may be located between the first dielectric layer 14 and the second dielectric layer 17. Protective material 13 also has a first surface 131 corresponding to a first surface 121 of capacitor 12 and a second surface 132 corresponding to a second surface 122 of capacitor 12. The first surface 131 of protective material 13 may contact the first dielectric layer 14, and the second surface 132 of protective material 13 may contact the second dielectric layer 17. In some embodiments, protective material 13 may include an underfill and / or a molding compound. Figure 1As shown, the protective material 13 may comprise a first protective material 13a and a second protective material 13b. The first protective material 13a covers the sidewalls 1243 of the capacitor 12 and the second electrode 124, as well as the sidewalls 163 of the conductive pad 16. The second protective material 13b covers the sidewalls 1233 of the first protective material 13b and the first electrode 123. The material of the first protective material 13a may be the same as or different from the material of the second protective material 13b. In some embodiments, the material of the first protective material 13a may be an underfill, and the material of the second protective material 13b may be a molding compound 13b. The first protective material 13a may have a first surface 131a and a second surface 132a opposite to the first surface 131a. The first surface 131a of the first protective material 13a may be substantially coplanar with the first surface 121 of the capacitor 12. The second protective material 13b may have a first surface 131b and a second surface 132b opposite to the first surface 131b. A portion of the second protective material 13b is disposed between the first surface 131a of the first protective material 13a and the first dielectric layer 14. The first surface 131b of the second protective material 13b is the first surface 131 of the protective material 13. The second surface 132b of the second protective material 13b and the second surface 132a of the first protective material 13a constitute the second surface 132 of the protective material 13.

[0076] Conductive supports 11 are positioned around the capacitor 12 and extend through the protective material 13. For example... Figure 1 As shown, conductive struts 11 are disposed around the capacitor 12 and the first protective material 13a of the protective material 13, and extend through the second protective material 13b of the protective material 13. Conductive struts 11 may be disposed between the first dielectric layer 14 and the third dielectric layer 18, and extend through the second dielectric layer 17. Each of the conductive struts 11 has a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 opposite to the first surface 111. Figure 1 As shown, the first surface 1231 of the first electrode 123, the first surface 111 of the conductive pillar 11 and the first surface 131 of the protective material 13 are substantially coplanar with each other.

[0077] A first dielectric layer 14 (e.g., a passivation layer) is disposed on a first surface 131 of the protective material 13 and defines a plurality of openings 141 to expose the first electrode 123 and the conductive pillar 11. The first dielectric layer 14 may comprise or be formed of a photoresist layer, a cured photosensitive material, a cured photoimageable dielectric (PID) material, such as an epoxy resin or polyimide (PI) containing a photoinitiator, or a combination of two or more of these. A first pillar 15 is disposed in the openings 141 of the first dielectric layer 14 and protrudes from the first dielectric layer 14. Therefore, the first pillar 15 contacts the first surface 1231 of the first electrode 123 and the first surface 111 of the conductive pillar 11.

[0078] A second dielectric layer 17 (e.g., a passivation layer) is disposed on the second surface 132 of the protective material 13 and covers the sidewalls 163 of the conductive pad 16 and the sidewalls of the conductive pillar 11. The second dielectric layer 17 has a first surface 171 and a second surface 172 opposite to the first surface 171. Figure 1 As shown, the second surface 164 of the conductive pad 16, the second surface 112 of the conductive pillar 11, and the second surface 172 of the second dielectric layer 17 are substantially coplanar with each other. The second dielectric layer 17 may comprise or be formed of a photoresist layer, a cured photosensitive material, a cured photoimageable dielectric (PID) material, such as an epoxy resin or polyimide (PI) containing a photoinitiator, or a combination of two or more of these.

[0079] A third dielectric layer 18 (e.g., a passivation layer) is disposed on the second dielectric layer 17 and defines a plurality of openings 181 to expose the conductive pad 16 and the conductive pillar 11. The third dielectric layer 18 may comprise or be formed of a photoresist layer, a cured photosensitive material, a cured photoimageable dielectric (PID) material, such as an epoxy resin or polyimide (PI) containing a photoinitiator, or a combination of two or more of these. A second pillar 19 is disposed in the openings 181 of the third dielectric layer 18 and protrudes from the third dielectric layer 18. Therefore, the second pillar 19 contacts the second surface 164 of the conductive pad 16 and the second surface 112 of the conductive pillar 11. Figure 1 As shown, some of the second pillars 19 can be electrically connected to some of the first pillars 15 via the conductive pad 16, Ni layer 161, Au layer 162, solder layer 125, second electrode 124, capacitor 12, and first electrode 123. Additionally, some of the second pillars 19 can be electrically connected to some of the first pillars 15 via the conductive pillar 11.

[0080] Figure 2A cross-sectional view of a capacitor bank structure 1a according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Figure 2 The capacitor bank structure 1a can be similar to Figure 1 The capacitor bank structure 1 differs in that the conductive strut 11 is omitted and the protective material 13 can consist of either a first protective material 13a or a second protective material 13b. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the first surface 131a of the first protective material 13a is the first surface 131 of the protective material 13, and the second surface 132a of the first protective material 13a is the second surface 132 of the protective material 13.

[0081] Figure 3 A cross-sectional view of a capacitor bank structure 1b according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Figure 3 The capacitor bank structure 1b can be similar to Figure 1 The capacitor bank structure 1 differs in that the conductive support 11 is omitted. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the second surface 132b of the second protective material 13b is disposed on the first surface 131a of the first protective material 13a. The first surface 131b of the second protective material 13b is the first surface 131 of the protective material 13, and the second surface 132a of the first protective material 13a is the second surface 132 of the protective material 13.

[0082] Figure 4 A cross-sectional view of a semiconductor package structure 2 according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. The semiconductor package structure 2 includes a conductive structure 24, a semiconductor device 25, one or more capacitors 12, an encapsulant 26, multiple outer pillars 27, a top package 3, multiple inner pillars 28, a redistribution circuit structure 29, a wiring structure 4, and multiple solder bumps 37.

[0083] The conductive structure 24 may be a substrate or an interposer, and may have a top surface 241 and a bottom surface 242 opposite to the top surface 241. In some embodiments, the conductive structure 24 may include four dielectric layers 243 (e.g., four passivation layers) and four metal circuit layers 244 electrically connected to each other. The semiconductor device 25 may be a semiconductor logic die, such as a central processing unit (CPU), graphics processing unit (GPU), or application processor (AP), and may be electrically connected to the top surface 241 of the conductive structure 24. Figure 4 As shown, the semiconductor device 25 has a first surface 251 and a second surface 252 opposite to the first surface 241. The first surface 251 of the semiconductor device 25 is electrically connected to the top surface 241 of the conductive structure 24 via a redistribution circuit structure 29, a capacitor bank structure 1a, and an internal support 28. The second surface 252 of the semiconductor device 25 is adhered to the wiring structure 4. The capacitor bank structure 1a may be the same as... Figure 2 The capacitor bank structure 1a may include one or more capacitors 12. Therefore, the capacitor 12 is disposed between the first surface 251 of the semiconductor device 25 and the top surface 241 of the conductive structure 24. A first electrode 123 is electrically connected to the conductive structure 24. A second electrode 124 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device 25 via a solder layer 125, a Ni layer 161, an Au layer 162, a conductive pad 16, a second pillar 19, a conductive pad 281, and a redistribution circuit structure 29. The capacitor 12 is not embedded in the conductive structure 24. The area of ​​the capacitor bank structure 1a, viewed from a top view, is smaller than the area of ​​the semiconductor device 25, viewed from a top view. An internal pillar 28 is disposed outside the capacitor bank structure 1a and electrically connected to the semiconductor device 25 and the conductive structure 24.

[0084] A redistribution circuit structure 29 (e.g., including a first passivation layer 291, a second passivation layer 294, and a redistribution layer (RDL) 293) is disposed between the semiconductor device 25 and the capacitor bank structure 1a (including the capacitor 12). The size of the redistribution circuit structure 29 may be substantially equal to the size of the semiconductor device 25. Internal pillars 28 may stand on the redistribution circuit structure 29. Furthermore, the redistribution layer (RDL) 293 may include a fiducial mark 296. However, in some embodiments, the redistribution circuit structure 29 may be omitted.

[0085] Encapsulation 26 is disposed in the space between wiring structure 4 and conductive structure 24 to cover semiconductor device 25, capacitor bank structure 1a (including capacitor 12), conductive structure 24, internal support 28, and redistribution circuit structure 29. The material of encapsulation 26 may be a molding compound.

[0086] An external support 27 is disposed around the semiconductor device 25 and extends through the encapsulation 26 to electrically connect the wiring structure 4 and the conductive structure 24. The wiring structure 4 is disposed between the encapsulation 26 and the top package 3. The wiring structure 4 includes at least one dielectric layer and at least one circuit layer 40. However, in some embodiments, the wiring structure 4 may be omitted.

[0087] The top package 3 is electrically connected to the external pillars 27 and the semiconductor device 25 via internal solder 35 and wiring structure 4. In one embodiment, the top package 3 includes a top substrate 30, one or more memory dies 32, and a top encapsulation 34. The memory dies 32 may be Synchronous Random Access Memory (SRAM), Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), Lower Power DDR (LPDDR), or High Bandwidth Memory (HBM). The memory dies 32 are electrically connected to the top substrate 30 via wire bonding. However, the memory dies 32 may also be electrically connected to the top substrate 30 via flip-chip bonding.

[0143] Unless otherwise stated, spatial descriptions such as "above," "below," "up," "left," "right," "down," "top," "bottom," "vertical," "horizontal," "side," "above," "below," "upper part," "above," "below," etc., indicate relative to the orientation shown in the figures. It should be understood that the spatial descriptions used herein are for illustrative purposes only, and actual embodiments of the structures described herein can be arranged in space in any orientation or manner, the limitation being that the advantages of the embodiments of the invention are that they will not deviate from such arrangements.

[0144] As used herein, the terms “approximately,” “generally,” “substantially,” and “about” are used to describe and explain small variations. When used in conjunction with an event or situation, the terms can refer to a situation in which the event or situation has clearly occurred or is very close to occurring. For example, when used in conjunction with a numerical value, the terms can refer to a range of variation less than or equal to ±10% of the numerical value, such as less than or equal to ±5%, less than or equal to ±4%, less than or equal to ±3%, less than or equal to ±2%, less than or equal to ±1%, less than or equal to ±0.5%, less than or equal to ±0.1%, or less than or equal to ±0.05%. For example, if a first numerical value is within a range of variation less than or equal to ±10% of a second numerical value, such as less than or equal to ±5%, less than or equal to ±4%, less than or equal to ±3%, less than or equal to ±2%, less than or equal to ±1%, less than or equal to ±0.5%, less than or equal to ±0.1%, or less than or equal to ±0.05%, then the first numerical value can be considered “generally” the same as or equal to the second numerical value. For example, "generally" vertical can refer to an angular variation of less than or equal to ±10° relative to 90°, such as less than or equal to ±5°, less than or equal to ±4°, less than or equal to ±3°, less than or equal to ±2°, less than or equal to ±1°, less than or equal to ±0.5°, less than or equal to ±0.1°, or less than or equal to ±0.05°.

[0145] If the displacement between two surfaces does not exceed 5 µm, 2 µm, 1 µm, or 0.5 µm, then the two surfaces are considered to be coplanar or substantially coplanar. If the displacement between the highest and lowest points of a surface is not greater than 5 µm, 2 µm, 1 µm, or 0.5 µm, then the surface is considered to be substantially flat.
