The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the utility model proposes a PIP stacking packaging structure, which includes:

[0036] A bottom carrier board 100 and a top carrier board 110, the upper surface of the bottom carrier board 100 contacts the lower surface of the top carrier board 110, the upper surface of the bottom carrier board 100 and the lower surface of the top carrier board 110 are both provided with pads 101, the pads 101 of the bottom carrier board 100 match the pads 101 of the top carrier board 110, a groove 102 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom carrier board 100, a first chip 103 is provided in the groove 102, the first chip 103 is electrically connected to the pads 101 of the bottom carrier board 100, a second chip 111 is provided on the upper surface of the top carrier board 110, and the second chip 111 is electrically connected to the pads 101 of the top carrier board 110;

[0037] The plastic cover 120 is located above the top carrier board 110 and is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the top carrier board 110 .

[0038] Furthermore, the pads 101 of the bottom substrate 100 are electrically connected to the pads 101 of the top substrate 110 via solder balls 104 .

[0039] Furthermore, a sealant 105 is coated between the upper surface of the bottom carrier 100 and the lower surface of the top carrier 110 .

[0040] Furthermore, the bottom carrier 100 and the top carrier 110 include HTG resin carriers.

[0041] It should be specially noted that, in the present embodiment, pads 101 are also provided on the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100 and the upper surface of the top substrate 110, wherein the second chip 111 is electrically connected to the pads 101 on the upper surface of the top substrate 110 by means of gold wire bonding or the like, and the pads 101 on the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100 are used to be electrically connected to an external circuit such as a PCB board, that is, after the packaged product is formed, the pads 101 on the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100 are exposed, and the packaged product is connected to the external circuit via the pads 101 on the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100.

[0042] The pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100 and the lower surface of the top substrate 110 are arranged in the same manner. When the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100 contacts the lower surface of the top substrate 110, the pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100 correspond to the pads 101 on the lower surface and contact each other.

[0043] Applying sealant 105 between the upper surface of the bottom carrier 100 and the lower surface of the top carrier 110 can effectively improve the sealing performance and the connection quality between the bottom carrier 100 and the top carrier 110. In this embodiment, sealant 105 is applied on the upper surface of the bottom carrier 100 and the periphery of the lower surface of the top carrier 110.

[0044] When performing the initial chip design, it is necessary to design the correspondence between the pads 101 on the upper and lower surfaces of the top substrate 110, the correspondence between the pads 101 on the upper and lower surfaces of the bottom substrate 100, the correspondence between the lower surface of the top substrate 110 and the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100, the pins of the second chip 111 and the pads 101 on the upper surface of the top substrate 110, and the correspondence between the first chip 103 and the pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100.

[0045] It should be noted that, according to design requirements, the bottom substrate 100 and the top substrate 110 may be provided with a through hole 107 penetrating the substrate, and the inside of the through hole 107 is tin-plated so as to be conductive. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, some pads 101 on the upper and lower surfaces of the bottom substrate 100 and the top substrate 110 are provided with via holes 107 penetrating the substrates, and electrical connections are made through the via holes 107, thereby realizing the supply of power to the chip or the introduction and extraction of electrical signals. The design of the corresponding relationship of the pads 101 belongs to the conventional process of chip design, and the setting of the via holes 107 belongs to the prior art, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0046] Taking the second chip 111 as a DRAM memory chip and the first chip 103 as a logic chip as an example, the specific use process is described:

[0047] First, the second chip 111 is fixedly set on the upper surface of the top substrate 110, and the pins of the second chip 111 are electrically connected to the pads 101 on the upper surface of the top substrate 110 according to a designed correspondence through gold wire bonding or the like; the first chip 103 is set in the groove 102, and the pins of the first chip 103 are electrically connected to the pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100 according to a designed correspondence through gold wire bonding or the like.

[0048] Afterwards, the top substrate 110 and the bottom substrate 100 are respectively tested for related electrical connections and chip logic functions, and unqualified top substrates 110 and bottom substrates 100 are eliminated, and qualified parts are retained. Through this separate testing method, unqualified parts can be quickly and effectively eliminated, which is beneficial to improving the test efficiency and the yield rate of packaged products.

[0049] Then, solder balls 104 are set on the soldering pads 101 on the lower surface of the top substrate 110 or the soldering pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100, and the upper surface of the top substrate 110 that has passed the test is brought into contact with the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100 that has passed the test. Under the action of the solder balls 104, the electrical connection between the top substrate 110 and the bottom substrate 100 is achieved. The method of using the solder balls 104 for electrical connection belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0050] Finally, the upper surface of the top carrier board 110 is plastic-sealed to form a plastic cover 120 , and then cut to form a single packaged product.

[0051] After the top substrate 110 is electrically connected to the bottom substrate 100, the top substrate 110 covers the groove 102. At this time, the first chip 103 is in a closed space. The top substrate 110 and the groove 102 together protect the first chip 103. In addition, the plastic cover 120 also protects the second chip 111.

[0052] In addition, since the first chip 103 and the second chip 111 are respectively arranged on different carriers, their testing and local upgrades are very convenient. For example, in this embodiment, the combination and supplier of the storage chip corresponding to the first chip 103 and the logic chip corresponding to the second chip 111 can be freely selected, which is also convenient for replacement, thereby facilitating flexible design and upgrade of the product.

[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the PIP stacking packaging structure of the present utility model,

[0054] Furthermore, a via hole 112 is provided on the top carrier board 110 above the groove 102 , and a metal block 113 is passed through and fixedly connected in the via hole 112 , and the metal block 113 matches the groove 102 .

[0055] Furthermore, the second chip 111 is fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the metal block 113 , and an insulating coating 117 is disposed between the second chip 111 and the metal block 113 .

[0056] Furthermore, the thickness of the insulating coating 117 is comprised between 3 and 4 μm.

[0057] In this embodiment, the metal block 113 is a finely machined metal block, and its processing technology belongs to the prior art, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0058] The second chip 111 is arranged on the upper surface of the metal block 113. The metal material has better thermal conductivity and better heat conduction efficiency, which is more conducive to the heat dissipation of the second chip 111. The insulating coating 117 is used to achieve insulation between the second chip 111 and the metal block 113 to ensure the safety of the second chip 111 during operation.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 1 Furthermore, the size of the metal block 113 is larger than the size of the groove 102 .

[0060] In this embodiment, the size of the metal block 113 is larger than the size of the groove 102. When the top carrier 110 is covered on the bottom carrier 100, a portion of the lower surface of the metal block 113 contacts the upper surface of the bottom carrier 100. The bottom carrier 100 also supports the metal block 113, making the connection between the metal block 113 and the groove 102 more stable.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 2 Furthermore, the lower end of the metal block 113 passes through the through hole 112 and is fixedly connected to an extension plate 114 . The size of the extension plate 114 is larger than that of the metal block 113 , and the lower surface of the extension plate 114 contacts the upper surface of the bottom carrier board 100 .

[0062] In this embodiment, since the size of the extension plate 114 is larger than that of the metal block 113, when the top carrier plate 110 is covered on the bottom carrier plate 100, a portion of the lower surface of the extension plate 114 contacts the upper surface of the bottom carrier plate 100, and the bottom carrier plate 100 also supports the metal block 113, making the connection between the metal block 113 and the groove 102 more stable.

[0063] The metal block 113 cooperates with the groove 102 to protect the first chip 103. In addition, the metal material has a better thermal conductivity and a better heat conduction efficiency, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the first chip 103. In addition, it should be specially noted that a thermal grease 106 is also provided in the groove 102. The thermal grease 106 is in contact with the first chip 103 and the metal block 113 respectively. By providing the thermal grease in the groove 102, the heat generated by the first chip 103 is better conducted to the metal block 113, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the first chip; secondly, the metal block 113 seals the first chip 103 in the groove 102, and the thermal grease 106 also has a certain buffering effect, which better protects the first chip 103.

[0064] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the PIP stacking packaging structure of the present utility model,

[0065] Furthermore, a plurality of groups of slots 115 are spaced apart on the inner wall of the via hole 112 , and a matching block 116 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the metal block 113 . The block 116 penetrates the slot 115 , and the block 116 is in close contact with the slot 115 .

[0066] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 Furthermore, the cross-section of the card block 116 and the card slot 115 includes a square.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 Furthermore, the cross-section of the card block 116 and the card slot 115 includes a semicircle.

[0068] In this embodiment, a plurality of groups of card grooves 115 are provided on the inner wall of the via hole 112, and a matching card block 116 is fixedly connected to the side wall where the metal block 113 contacts the via hole 112, thereby effectively improving the roughness of the side wall of the metal block 113 and the inner wall of the via hole 112. When the card block 116 is inserted into the card groove 115, it is also beneficial to improve the roughness of the metal block 113 and the via hole 112. Of course, sealant can also be applied simultaneously between the side wall of the metal block 113 and the inner wall of the via hole 112 and between the card block 116 and the card groove 115, thereby making the connection between the metal block 113 and the via hole 112 more stable.

[0069] In addition, a plurality of groups of card blocks 116 are arranged on the side wall of the metal block 113. When the metal block 113 is deformed by heat, a certain extension space is provided between adjacent card blocks 116 for the metal block 113 to be deformed by heat, thereby avoiding irregular deformation between the metal block 113 and the top carrier board 110 and improving the stability of the packaged product during use.

[0070] When in use, the metal block 113 is first inserted into the through hole 112, and the clamping block 116 on the side wall of the metal block 113 is inserted into the clamping groove 115 on the inner wall of the through hole 112. With the cooperation of the clamping block 116 and the clamping groove 115, the metal block 113 and the through hole 112 are fixed.

[0071] Afterwards, the second chip 111 is fixed on the upper surface of the top substrate 110, and the pins of the second chip 111 are electrically connected to the pads 101 on the upper surface of the top substrate 110; the first chip 103 is set in the groove 102, and the pins of the first chip 103 are electrically connected to the pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100.

[0072] Then, the top substrate 110 and the bottom substrate 100 are respectively tested for related electrical connection and chip logic function, and unqualified top substrates 110 and bottom substrates 100 are eliminated, and the qualified parts are retained. Upper solder balls 104 are set on the solder pads 101 on the lower surface of the top substrate 110 or the solder pads 101 on the upper surface of the bottom substrate 100, and the upper surface of the top substrate 110 that has passed the test is brought into contact with the lower surface of the bottom substrate 100 that has passed the test. Under the action of the solder balls 104, the electrical connection between the top substrate 110 and the bottom substrate 100 is achieved.

[0073] Finally, the upper surface of the top carrier board 110 is plastic-sealed to form a plastic cover 120 , and then cut to form a single packaged product.

[0074] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
