Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing process and equipment technology, and in particular to a hot pressing carrier platform device for semiconductor flip chip packaging process. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the COF process is mainly used to fabricate hot-pressing carriers for flexible circuit boards and chips in the following ways: After processing aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramic sintered bodies into components for hot-pressing carrier surfaces, they are bonded to a metal base using high-temperature resistant adhesive, and the working surface of the pressing head is polished to obtain the hot-pressing carrier.
[0003] However, due to the significant difference in thermal expansion coefficients between aluminum nitride or silicon carbide and the metal substrate, the processing temperature is typically 120–180 degrees Celsius. Upon heating, this difference in expansion causes the adhesive bonding surface to peel off, further leading to the detachment or displacement of the silicon carbide support platform assembly. Some have attempted to use screws to assist in securing the bonded metal substrate and support platform assembly, but the screws can crack the aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramic upon heating, causing vacuum leakage between them and preventing the support platform from effectively securing the flexible circuit board.
[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model, and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is an exploded structural diagram of a hot-pressing support platform device according to an embodiment of the present invention. To achieve at least one or more of the aforementioned advantages, an embodiment of the present invention provides a hot-pressing support platform device, which includes a planar base 20, a raised base 21, a platform assembly 10, and a plurality of metal uprights 30.
[0027] The raised base 21 is disposed on the flat base 20. The flat base 20 and the raised base 21 can be made of metal.
[0028] The tabletop assembly 10 is disposed on the raised base 21. The tabletop assembly 10 has a polished surface 11. A vacuum groove 12 is provided on the polished surface 11 of the tabletop assembly 10. A first vacuum suction hole 13 is provided in the vacuum groove 12. The first vacuum suction hole 13 is used to hold the flexible circuit board 60.
[0029] Multiple metal uprights 30 are screwed together and mounted around the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10. Each metal upright 30 connects the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10, thus assisting in securing the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10. Using multiple metal uprights 30 as auxiliary fixation on all four sides effectively increases the mechanical rigidity and fixing strength of the assembled hot-pressing support platform.
[0030] Regarding the screw fastening method, taking one side of the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10 as an example, as shown in the figure, the tabletop assembly 10 has a first through hole 15 around its perimeter, the raised base 21 has a second through hole 26 around its perimeter, and the metal upright plate 30 has a third through hole 31 and a fourth through hole 32. The third through hole 31 corresponds to the first through hole 15, and the fourth through hole 32 corresponds to the second through hole 26. The first screw 51 passes through the third through hole 31 and the first through hole 15, and the second screw 52 passes through the fourth through hole 32 and the second through hole 26, so that the metal upright plate 30 simultaneously connects the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10, thereby fixing the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10. Similarly, the other three sides can also use the same through holes and screws.
[0031] In some embodiments, the upper surface of the raised base 21 is provided with a first through hole 23, and the lower surface of the tabletop assembly 10 is provided with a second through hole (not shown in the figure). Screws are used to pass through the first through hole 23 and the second through hole to fix the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10.
[0032] In some embodiments, the surface of the raised base 21 is provided with a second vacuum suction hole 24, which is connected to a vacuum suction hole to form a vacuum channel for easy vacuum adsorption.
[0033] In some embodiments, the sidewall of the tabletop assembly 10 is provided with a first cooling through hole 16, and the surface of the raised base 21 is provided with a second cooling through hole 25. The first cooling through hole 16 communicates with the second cooling through hole 25 to form a cooling channel for rapid cooling after heating during production.
[0034] In some embodiments, the raised base 21 is provided with a temperature sensing hole 22 for placing a temperature sensing rod to monitor the temperature of the hot-pressed joint.
[0035] In some embodiments, the material of the tabletop assembly 10 includes aluminum nitride or silicon carbide. The tabletop assembly 10 made of aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramic sintered material has high hardness (approaching the hardness of diamond), therefore, the surface supporting the flexible circuit board 60 for chip lamination can withstand long-term wear, impact, and pressure, and is not easily deformed. Aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramics have stable chemical and physical properties, do not generate static electricity due to friction, and are excellent electrical insulators, thus solving the problem of static electricity accumulation and its effects. The tabletop assembly 10 made of aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramic sintered material can be mirror-polished using its polishable properties, and has excellent wear resistance. The polished surface 11 can maintain a mirror-like state for a long time, and impurities or residual adhesive from the manufacturing process are not easily adhered to the tabletop assembly 10. If the countertop assembly 10, made of aluminum nitride or silicon carbide ceramic sintered material, is scratched or worn on the polished surface 11, it can be quickly removed from the raised base 21 and repolished multiple times. The service life after repolishing is the same as that of a new product, effectively reducing production costs. The countertop assembly 10 can be processed from a single material, thus preventing uneven expansion during heating. After assembly, the polished surface 11 maintains the same flatness and evenness within a temperature range (e.g., room temperature to 800℃). Therefore, the same hot-pressing support platform can be used for production processes at different temperatures.
[0036] In some embodiments, the planar base 20 and the raised base 21 are made of steel or tungsten carbide steel. Using ultra-hard mold steel or tungsten carbide steel to produce the planar base 20 and the raised base 21 allows for rapid machining processes typically used with metals, such as electrical discharge machining (EDM) and wire cutting. This effectively reduces the machining difficulty and time required for complex details such as deep hole drilling, threading, and micro-hole fabrication on the ceramic sintered body. The all-ceramic hot-pressing support platform has multiple threaded holes for locking and fixing with the equipment base. These holes often crack due to over-tightening or thermal expansion. By replacing the easily cracked parts with metal, and placing the threaded holes on the metal base, the problem of the fragile holes made of ceramic material is solved.
[0037] In some embodiments, the metal plate 30 is made of steel or tungsten carbide steel and is manufactured by machining.
[0038] In some embodiments, the hot-pressing support platform device further includes a gasket 40. The gasket 40 is located between the platform assembly 10 and the raised base 21. The gasket 40 may be a vacuum-proof gasket 40 made of a metal film through processing. Using a soft metal film as a sealing material for the contact surfaces of the raised base 21 and the platform assembly 10 can maintain an airtight seal between the contact surfaces of the raised base 21 and the platform assembly 10, and can also maintain the overall accuracy of the two components after assembly.
[0039] As shown in the figure, a fixing hole 28 is also provided on the planar base 20. The fixing hole 28 is located on the upper surface of the planar base 20 that is not covered by the protruding base 21, and is used to fix the assembled hot pressing carrier device on the fixed base of the packaging equipment to improve the overall structural stability.
[0040] In summary, the hot-pressing support platform device provided by this utility model, through the combination of the raised base 21, the tabletop assembly 10, and multiple metal uprights 30, can effectively solve the problem of the hot-pressing support platform device easily breaking at the screw holes, and prevent the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10 from separating and falling off. Furthermore, this utility model does not use traditional adhesive bonding to fix the raised base 21 and the tabletop assembly 10; instead, it uses screws for locking and fixing the two together. This allows for quick removal of damaged tabletop assembly 10 or replacement of a tabletop assembly 10 of a different size without the need for adhesive, and facilitates rapid replacement with a new tabletop assembly 10.
[0041] Those skilled in the art should understand that, despite the many problems existing in the prior art, each embodiment or technical solution of this utility model can be improved in only one or a few aspects, without necessarily solving all the technical problems listed in the prior art or the background art simultaneously. Those skilled in the art should understand that any content not mentioned in a claim should not be construed as a limitation on that claim.
[0042] Furthermore, the range of values for "~" in the above-mentioned terminology includes the values at both endpoints themselves, all of which fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Although terms such as chip tray, chip placement slot, chip, pressing plate, and cutout slot are frequently used herein, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. The use of these terms is merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this utility model; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this utility model.
