Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a packaging device, and in particular to a packaging device for packaging integrated circuit (IC) components. Background Art
[0002] Taiwan Patent No. I568324, "Heat Sink Implantation Method and Apparatus," discloses a prior art integrated circuit component packaging process, which utilizes a serial production line formed by packaging equipment including a coating device, a wafer implantation device, and a pressing device to perform a coating step, a wafer implantation step, and a pressing and curing step. A composition having a chip already placed on a substrate is subjected to a coating step by a coating device having a glue valve and a glue needle before a heat sink (generally referred to as a top cover) is implanted. A first adhesive having a ∟-shaped frame facing the center is first applied to each of the four corners of the substrate surrounding the chip, for adhesion and attachment of the lower-level frame edge of the heat sink. A second adhesive having a cross-shaped shape is applied to the upper surface of the chip for adhesion and attachment of the inner edge of the central raised surface of the heat sink. The wafer implantation step is then performed by the wafer implantation device. A heat sink is placed on the adhesive-coated substrate and chip. The pressing and curing step is then performed by the pressing device. The heat sink is pressurized, heated, and then subjected to a temperature-returning process to cure the liquid adhesive to complete the packaging.
[0003] In the previous packaging process, liquid adhesive was used as a bonding agent for (1) the adhesion between the periphery of the heat sink and the substrate; (2) heat transfer between the chip and the heat sink. With the rapid development of technology, the process of integrated circuit components is moving towards 2.5D IC and even 3D IC packaging. The chip is no longer directly fixed to the substrate, but has advanced to a chip stacking structure (Chip on Chip) formed through a wire carrier (interposer). The wafer, such as Cow), and there may be multiple chips packaged on the substrate. The heat dissipation requirements generated by them can no longer be met by simply coating the second adhesive in a cross pattern on the surface of a chip. In addition, when the prior art uses a coating device to perform the coating step, it is necessary to use a glue valve and glue needle to apply the first adhesive to the substrate around the chip and the second adhesive to the chip surface. This will consume a lot of work time for the coating device at the same workstation. The glue valve and glue needle of the coating device can only allow liquid adhesive to be coated and cannot adapt to the application of non-liquid adhesive between the chip and the heat sink. In addition, as the precision of integrated circuit components increases, defects that occur after the various operating devices perform preset operations on the integrated circuit components may affect the quality of the integrated circuit components. However, the prior art only performs relevant inspections after the glue coating and pressing and curing steps, which cannot meet today's quality requirements. It can be seen that there is still room for improvement in the prior art. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a packaging device that can improve at least one disadvantage of the prior art.

[0008] In the packaging device of the present invention, the operation of forming the thermal interface material on the integrated circuit element is not performed at the same operation station as the operation of applying the adhesive material to the integrated circuit element by using a glue valve or glue needle, but is arranged in a sequential operation station in the conveying flow path and is independently applied in the pre-process operation station of the adhesive material application operation. Therefore, it can independently apply, for example, thermal interface film (Film Tim), metal thermal interface material (Metal Tim) or liquid metal thermal interface material (Liquid Metal Tim). Tim), and different application mechanisms are used according to the application of different thermal interface materials. For example, the thermal interface film can be applied in a laminating manner, and is not affected by the operation station for coating the adhesive material, which can only apply thermosetting adhesive with adhesive valves and adhesive needles, so that the packaging efficiency is improved and the compatibility with the application of thermal interface materials is improved; in addition, the thermal interface material inspection station is provided after the thermal interface material application station along the conveying flow path, and the cover inspection station is provided after the cover planting station along the conveying flow path, so that the defects of the integrated circuit components after the thermal interface material is applied at the thermal interface material application station or the upper cover is planted at the cover planting station can be discovered immediately.

[0112] After applying pressure to the upper cover 2 toward the integrated circuit element 1 and before the carrier S1 carrying the integrated circuit element 1 is transported to the receiving station K, a visual inspection of the pressed upper cover 2 is performed;
[0113] After the carrier S1 carrying the integrated circuit component 1 has been subjected to predetermined operations in the thermal interface material application station C, the adhesive coating station E, the cover placement station G, and the cover pressing station I, the thermal interface material inspection station D, the adhesive inspection station F, the cover inspection station H, and the pressing station J will subsequently perform inspection operations, respectively, to immediately detect defects in the integrated circuit component 1 that have occurred after the predetermined operations have been performed in the thermal interface material application station C, the adhesive coating station E, the cover placement station G, and the cover pressing station I.
[0114] During the process of executing the preset operation of the carrier S1 carrying the integrated circuit component 1, when a fault occurs or a defect is found during inspection, the work station executing the operation will enter a shutdown state and issue an alarm.

Therefore, it can independently apply thermal interface film (Film Tim), metal thermal interface material (Metal Tim) or liquid metal thermal interface material (Liquid Metal Tim). Tim) and other different thermal interface materials 3, and different application mechanisms are used according to the application of different thermal interface materials 3. For example, the application of thermal interface film can be carried out in a bonding manner, and is not affected by the operation station for coating the adhesive material 4 which can only apply thermosetting adhesive with adhesive valves and adhesive needles, so that the packaging efficiency is improved and the compatibility with the application of thermal interface material 3 is improved; in addition, the thermal interface material inspection station D is provided after the thermal interface material application station C along the conveying flow path A, and the cover inspection station H is provided after the cover planting station G along the conveying flow path A, so that the defects of the integrated circuit element 1 after the thermal interface material 3 is applied at the thermal interface material application station C or the upper cover 2 is planted at the cover planting station G can be discovered immediately.
