Attached Figure Description

[0022] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the LED packaging structure provided in this embodiment of the utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, the utility model will be described in further detail below.

[0024] See Figure 1This invention provides an LED packaging structure, including a substrate 1, a chip stacking structure 2, and an encapsulating colloid 3. The chip stacking structure 2 includes at least a first chip 21, a second chip 22, and a third chip 23 stacked sequentially in a vertical direction, all of which are electrically connected to the substrate 1. The first chip 21 and the second chip 22 are both flip chips, with the first chip 21 at least partially disposed between the second chip 22 and the substrate 1. The encapsulating colloid 3 at least covers the chip stacking structure 2.

[0025] This invention avoids problems such as image offset and low display accuracy caused by flat chip arrangements by vertically stacking a first chip 21, a second chip 22, and a third chip 23 with overlapping light-emitting centers, making it suitable for high-definition image display. Furthermore, the first chip 21 and the second chip 22 are flip-chips, while the third chip 23 is a standard-mount chip. This allows for further reduction of the substrate size while maintaining chip-substrate connection performance, meeting the miniaturization requirements of display devices. It is understood that when multiple chips are of either a standard-mount or flip-chip structure, they are generally arranged in a stepped configuration. A standard-mount structure requires electrical connection between the chip and the substrate via wires; correspondingly, the pads on the substrate for conductive connection need to be located outside the vertical projection area of ​​the chip. A flip-chip structure electrically connects the chip to the substrate via soldering; the solder pads on the substrate for soldering the chip need to be located within the vertical projection area of ​​the chip. Therefore, the chip with the largest area among the stacked chips needs to be sufficiently large to ensure overall light-emitting effect. This invention stacks upright and flip-chips. It only requires that the first chip 21 be at least partially placed between the second chip 22 and the substrate 1, without limiting the size of the second chip 22 and the third chip 23. This can achieve a good connection between the first chip 21, the second chip 22 and the third chip 23 and the substrate 1, and the area of ​​the substrate 1 can be further reduced, thereby realizing high-density display of the display device.

[0026] It is understandable that the chip stacking structure 2 may also include a fourth chip stacked on the surface of the third chip 23. The fourth chip is a standard chip, and the color purity and color gamut saturation are further improved by setting up four color chips.

[0027] In one embodiment, a first pad 11, a second pad 12, and a third pad 13 are provided on a substrate 1. It is understood that each of the first pad 11, second pad 12, and third pad 13 includes a pair of positive and negative pads. The electrode of the first chip 21 is soldered to the first pad 11; the electrode of the second chip 22 is soldered to the second pad 12 via a soldering post 4, and light emitted from inside the second chip can be emitted through the gap between the top of the chip and the soldering post; the electrode of the third chip 23 is electrically connected to the third pad 13 via a wire 5.

[0028] Specifically, in one embodiment, the length of the first chip 21 is less than the distance between the two opposite electrodes of the second chip 22, thereby ensuring that the first chip 21 is at least partially disposed between the second chip 22 and the substrate 1. Correspondingly, the width relationship between the first chip 21 and the second chip 22 is not specifically limited. Specifically, the width of the first chip 21 can be less than or equal to the width of the second chip 22, meaning the first chip 21 is completely disposed within the vertical projection area of ​​the second chip 22. Alternatively, the width of the first chip 21 can be greater than the width of the second chip 22, meaning that in the width direction, the edge of the first chip 21 is disposed outside the vertical projection area of ​​the second chip 22, ensuring that the soldering of the second chip 22 to the substrate 1 is not affected by the first chip 21.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, both the first chip 21 and the third chip 23 are disposed in the projection area of ​​the second chip 22 in the vertical direction, thereby miniaturizing the packaging structure while ensuring light efficiency and improving the display density of the display device.

[0030] To achieve high-quality soldering between the second chip 22 and the substrate 1, the soldering post 4 has a preset height so that the lower surface of the soldered second chip 22 contacts the upper surface of the first chip 21. In a preferred embodiment, to improve the connection stability of the first chip 21 and the second chip 22, a second adhesive layer is provided between the upper surface of the first chip 21 and the lower surface of the second chip 22, and the first chip 21 and the second chip 22 are connected through the second adhesive layer. The material of the second adhesive layer can be a transparent, highly thermally conductive insulating adhesive layer, an insulating film, or an insulating and heat-dissipating adhesive, etc., but is not limited to these.

[0031] Specifically, the welding posts 4 are disposed between the electrodes of the second chip 22 and the substrate 1. The number of welding posts 4 is the same as the number of electrodes of the second chip 22, that is, the welding posts 4 correspond one-to-one with the electrodes of the second chip 22.

[0032] Specifically, the second chip 22 has at least two sets of heterogeneous electrodes, each set including an N-electrode and a P-electrode along the length of the second chip 22. In a preferred embodiment, the second chip 22 has four electrodes, namely two N-electrodes and two P-electrodes, and the lines connecting the four electrodes form a rectangle similar in shape to the second chip 22. Light emitted from the first chip 21 can exit from the top and sides of the chip. Four rectangularly distributed solder pillars are provided at the bottom of the second chip 22 to ensure that the light from the first chip 21 exits through the gaps between the solder pillars. The arrangement of the four electrodes ensures soldering stability and improves the light efficiency of the packaged chip.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the first chip 21 is also provided with four electrodes, namely two N electrodes and two P electrodes, and the connection of the four electrodes forms a rectangle similar in shape to the first chip 21.

[0034] To prevent the third chip 23 from moving during the packaging process, in a preferred embodiment, a first adhesive layer is provided between the upper surface of the second chip 22 and the lower surface of the third chip 23, and the second chip 22 and the third chip 23 are connected by the first adhesive layer. The material of the first adhesive layer can be a transparent, highly thermally conductive insulating layer, an insulating film, or an insulating and heat-dissipating adhesive, but is not limited to these.

[0035] It is understood that the emitted light colors of the first chip 21, the second chip 22, and the third chip 23 are different. Specifically, the first chip 21, the second chip 22, and the third chip 23 are respectively one of a blue light chip, a green light chip, and a red light chip. The vertical arrangement of the three colors of chips can be adjusted according to LED design requirements, and different light-emitting effects can be achieved by individually controlling the light emitted by the first chip 21, the second chip 22, and the third chip 23. In a preferred embodiment, the centers of the first chip 21, the second chip 22, and the third chip 23 are located on the same vertical line, thereby further improving the display effect after the three colors are mixed.

[0036] Accordingly, the LED packaging structure of this utility model can be obtained by the following LED packaging method, which includes the following steps:

[0044] Specifically, a soldering material is coated onto the second pad of the substrate, and a soldering post is placed on the soldering material so that it contacts the soldering material on the second pad.

Optionally, the soldering material can be solder paste or silver paste, but is not limited to these.

[0045] S32. Place a second chip on the welding post and weld the electrodes of the second chip to the welding post.

[0046] Specifically, a welding material is coated onto a welding pillar, and a second chip is placed on the welding material, so that the electrodes of the second chip come into contact with the welding material on the welding pillar.

The heating temperature is 230℃~260℃, and the heating time is 25s~35s, so that the electrodes of the second chip and the welding pillar are welded together.

The adhesive is then heated to solidify at a temperature of 150°C to 170°C for 1.5 to 2 hours. Wires are then soldered between the electrodes of the third chip and the third pads of the substrate to form a conductive connection.
