[0016] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0017] This invention provides an epoxy encapsulation structure for flip chips. The heat generated by the flip chip is first transferred to a first thermally conductive layer coated on the flip chip surface. This graphene-based first thermally conductive layer quickly transfers the heat generated by the flip chip to the epoxy resin layer via a transition layer. The silicon nitride transition layer reduces the thermal resistance at the interface, allowing heat to be smoothly transferred from the first thermally conductive layer to the epoxy resin layer. Upon receiving the heat from the first thermally conductive layer through the transition layer, the epoxy resin layer begins to diffuse the heat internally. Simultaneously, the epoxy resin layer... Multiple heat dissipation grooves are provided, which increase the contact area between the epoxy resin layer and the external environment. Heat is dissipated to the external environment through the surface of the heat dissipation grooves via thermal convection and thermal radiation. In addition, heat is efficiently conducted from the epoxy resin layer to the heat sink through the second thermally conductive layer made of graphene. The copper heat sink can quickly conduct heat downwards and dissipate heat into the surrounding air through thermal convection. This effectively improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the epoxy resin layer, reduces heat accumulation inside the chip, effectively maintains the stability of the chip, and increases its service life.
[0018] By uniformly filling the interior of the snap-fit groove with epoxy resin, the snap-fit groove on the substrate and the integrally molded epoxy resin connecting clip are sealed and snapped together, which can achieve a stable connection between the epoxy resin layer and the substrate, enhance the overall stability of the packaging structure, and prevent the epoxy resin layer from shifting or falling off.

[0026] Example
[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an epoxy encapsulation structure for flip chips, including: a substrate 1, a flip chip 2 connected to the top of the substrate 1, the flip chip 2 being sealed on the substrate 1 by an epoxy resin layer 3; wherein, a first thermally conductive layer 5 is provided between the flip chip 2 and the epoxy resin layer 3, and a transition layer 6 is provided between the first thermally conductive layer 5 and the epoxy resin layer 3; a snap-fit portion is provided on the substrate 1, and the epoxy resin layer 3 is connected to the snap-fit portion; multiple heat dissipation grooves 7 are formed on the epoxy resin layer 3, which can effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the epoxy resin layer, reduce heat accumulation inside the chip, effectively maintain the stability of the chip, and increase its service life.
[0028] The first thermally conductive layer 5 is a graphene thermally conductive coating. The first thermally conductive layer 5 is coated on the surface of the flip chip 2. The thickness of the first thermally conductive layer 5 is 20~30nm, preferably 25nm. By setting the graphene thermally conductive coating as the first thermally conductive layer 5 between the flip chip 2 and the epoxy resin layer 3, the high thermal conductivity of graphene is used to quickly dissipate the heat of the flip chip 2, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the flip chip 2, effectively reducing the operating temperature of the flip chip 2, avoiding problems such as performance degradation, unstable operation or even damage caused by overheating, and improving the reliability and service life of the flip chip 2.
[0029] The transition layer 6 is a silicon nitride coating. The transition layer 6 is coated on the surface of the first thermally conductive layer 5 and is in direct contact with the epoxy resin layer 3. The thickness of the transition layer 6 is 15~30nm, and the thickness of the transition layer 6 is preferably 20nm. By setting the transition layer 6 between the first thermally conductive layer 5 and the epoxy resin layer 3, the interfacial thermal resistance can be effectively reduced, and heat can be efficiently transferred to the epoxy resin layer 3.
[0030] The substrate 1 has a solder pad 101 fixedly mounted on its top, and the flip chip 2 has a bump 4 fixedly mounted on its bottom. The bump 4 is soldered to the solder pad 101. By soldering the solder pad 101 on the top of the substrate 1 to the bump 4 on the bottom of the flip chip 2, the electrical and mechanical connection between the flip chip 2 and the substrate 1 can be ensured to be stable and reliable.
[0031] The snap-fit portion includes a snap-fit groove 103 formed on the substrate 1, and a connecting snap-fit foot 301 integrally formed on the epoxy resin layer 3. The connecting snap-fit foot 301 is fitted into the inside of the snap-fit groove 103. By setting the snap-fit groove 103 on the substrate 1 and fitting the connecting snap-fit foot 301 of the epoxy resin layer 3, a stable connection between the epoxy resin layer 3 and the substrate 1 can be achieved, enhancing the overall stability of the packaging structure and preventing the epoxy resin layer 3 from shifting or falling off.
[0032] The substrate 1 has multiple mounting holes 102, and heat sinks 8 are fixedly installed inside the mounting holes 102. The upper end of the heat sink 8 is in contact with the epoxy resin layer 3. By having the heat sink 8 in contact with the epoxy resin layer 3, the heat dissipation efficiency of the flip chip 2 can be further improved.
[0033] A second thermally conductive layer 801 is provided between the upper end face of the heat dissipation column 8 and the epoxy resin layer 3. The second thermally conductive layer 801 is a graphene thermally conductive coating. The thickness of the second thermally conductive layer 801 is 20~30nm, preferably 25nm, which can effectively enhance the heat conduction between the heat dissipation column 8 and the epoxy resin layer 3.
[0034] Among them, the heat dissipation column 8 has a structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the heat dissipation column 8 is made of copper. By adopting the design of copper material that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, the heat dissipation column 8 can accelerate heat conduction, and the structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom increases the contact area with the air and improves heat dissipation efficiency.
[0035] The bottom of the substrate 1 is integrally formed with a protrusion 104, and a heat dissipation channel is formed between the protrusion 104 and the bottom of the substrate 1. By forming a heat dissipation channel between the protrusion 104 and the bottom of the substrate 1, air convection heat dissipation is promoted.
[0036] The substrate 1 has injection holes 9. By opening injection holes 9 on the substrate 1, it is convenient to inject epoxy resin during the packaging process, ensuring uniform filling of epoxy resin, and improving packaging quality and production efficiency.
[0037] Working principle:
[0038] When the flip chip 2 is working, the heat generated is first transferred to the first thermally conductive layer 5 coated on the surface of the flip chip 2. The graphene-based first thermally conductive layer 5 can quickly transfer the heat generated by the flip chip 2 to the epoxy resin layer 3 via the transition layer 6. The silicon nitride-based transition layer 6 can reduce the thermal resistance at the interface, allowing the heat to be smoothly transferred from the first thermally conductive layer 5 to the epoxy resin layer 3. After receiving the heat from the first thermally conductive layer 5 through the transition layer 6, the epoxy resin layer 3 begins to diffuse the heat within itself. At the same time, multiple heat dissipation grooves 7 are formed on the epoxy resin layer 3. These heat dissipation grooves 7 increase the contact area between the epoxy resin layer 3 and the external environment. The heat will be dissipated to the external environment through the surface of the heat dissipation grooves 7 in the form of thermal convection and thermal radiation. In addition, the heat is efficiently conducted from the epoxy resin layer 3 to the heat dissipation column 8 through the graphene-based second thermally conductive layer 801. The copper-based heat dissipation column 8 can quickly conduct the heat downward and dissipate the heat into the surrounding air through thermal convection.
[0039] During the flip chip 2 packaging process, epoxy resin is injected through the injection hole 9, so that the injected epoxy resin is evenly filled into the interior of the snap-fit groove 103, so that the snap-fit groove 103 on the substrate 1 and the integrally molded epoxy resin connecting clip 301 are sealed and snapped together, which can realize the stable connection between the epoxy resin layer 3 and the substrate 1, enhance the overall stability of the packaging structure, and prevent the epoxy resin layer 3 from shifting or falling off.
