[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of a COWOS chip packaging module disclosed in this application. The chip packaging module includes multiple dies 10, a silicon interposer 11, a packaging substrate 12, and a printed circuit board 13. The multiple dies 10 are electrically connected to the silicon interposer 11 via second solder balls 100, the silicon interposer 11 is electrically connected to the packaging substrate 12 via third solder balls 111, and the packaging substrate 12 is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 13 via fourth solder balls 120. The silicon interposer 11 is used to realize the electrical connection between the multiple dies 10 and the electrical connection between the multiple dies 10 and the packaging substrate 12, and the packaging substrate 12 is used to realize the electrical connection between the silicon interposer 11 and the printed circuit board 13.

[0035] In the process of manufacturing chip packaging modules, multiple reflow soldering processes are required to melt the second solder ball 100 between the bare die 10 and the silicon interposer 11, the third solder ball 111 between the silicon interposer 11 and the packaging substrate 12, and the fourth solder ball 120 between the packaging substrate 12 and the printed circuit board 13, so as to achieve electrical connection between the bare die 10 and the silicon interposer 11, the silicon interposer 11 and the packaging substrate 12, and the packaging substrate 12 and the printed circuit board 13.

[0036] However, because the thermal expansion coefficients of the bare die 10, silicon interposer 11, packaging substrate 12, and printed circuit board 13 are different, warping of the chip packaging module after reflow soldering can occur. Furthermore, while the COWOS chip packaging module can improve the integration and computing power of the chip packaging module, it also leads to a dramatic increase in the size of the chip packaging module, and larger chip packaging modules experience greater warping. Excessive warping results in poor coplanarity of the fourth solder ball 120 between the packaging substrate 12 and the printed circuit board 13, frequently causing soldering defects in the COWOS chip packaging module and resulting in a low yield rate.

[0037] Based on this, this application discloses a chip packaging structure that improves the coplanarity of the solder balls between the adapter board and the printed circuit board by making the bare die electrically connected to the printed circuit board through an adapter board and by making the diameter of the solder balls between the adapter board and the printed circuit board greater than or equal to 200μm, thereby reducing the probability of soldering defects in the chip packaging module and improving the yield of the chip packaging module.

[0038] As an optional implementation of the disclosure in this application, an embodiment of this application discloses a chip packaging structure, such as... Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a chip packaging structure disclosed in an embodiment of this application. The chip packaging structure includes multiple dies 10 and an adapter board 20. The multiple dies 10 are located on one side of the adapter board 20. Specifically, the multiple dies 10 are located on the same side of the adapter board 20. All the multiple dies 10 are electrically connected to the adapter board 20, which is used to realize the electrical connection between the multiple dies 10.

[0039] And, as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of a chip packaging module disclosed in an embodiment of this application. The chip packaging module includes... Figure 2 The chip packaging structure and printed circuit board 13 are shown. The adapter board 20 is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 13, and the adapter board 20 is also used to realize the electrical connection between multiple bare dies 10 and the printed circuit board 13.

[0040] In addition, such as Figure 2and Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the side of the adapter plate 20 away from the plurality of dies 10 has a plurality of first solder balls 200 for realizing the electrical connection between the adapter plate 20 and the printed circuit board 13. The diameter D of the first solder ball 200 is greater than or equal to 200 μm.

[0041] In the embodiments of the present application, by making the die 10 electrically connected to the printed circuit board 13 through the adapter plate 20, the packaging substrate 12 can be cancelled and at least one reflow process can be reduced, so that the warpage of the chip packaging structure can be reduced, and the coplanarity of the solder balls between the adapter plate 20 and the printed circuit board 13 can be improved, and the probability of poor welding of the chip packaging module assembled by the chip packaging structure can be reduced, and the yield of the chip packaging module can be improved.

[0042] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, by making the diameter D of the first solder ball 200 between the adapter plate 20 and the printed circuit board 13 greater than or equal to 200 μm, the coplanarity, consistency and weldability of the first solder ball 200 between the adapter plate 20 and the printed circuit board 13 can be improved, and the probability of poor welding of the chip packaging module can be further reduced, and the yield of the chip packaging module can be further improved. It should be noted that, as shown in FIG. 1, the diameter of the fourth solder ball 120 between the conventional chip packaging structure and the printed circuit board 13 is about 80 μm. Figure 1

[0043] On this basis, in some embodiments of the present application, the pitch L of the first solder ball 200 is greater than or equal to 300 μm. Based on this, not only the diameter of the first solder ball 200 can be increased, but also the short circuit between the first solder ball 200 can be avoided, which is beneficial to reduce the probability of poor welding of the chip packaging module and improve the yield of the chip packaging module.
