Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an interposer substrate and a semiconductor package. [Background technology]

[0002] As electronic components are required to be more highly functional, lighter, thinner, shorter, and smaller, the circuit boards mounted inside the electronic components are also required to be more highly functional, lighter, thinner, shorter, and smaller. To achieve this, the circuit patterns on circuit boards are designed with fine detail, and semiconductor elements that perform various functions are arranged inside the circuit boards to achieve high functionality.

[0003] Printed circuit boards on which chips are mounted are stacked one on top of the other to form a semiconductor package, such as a stacked package or package-on-package (POP). A stacked package is a structure in which upper and lower packages are stacked with a certain gap maintained between them depending on the thickness of the chips, and structures such as metal posts are used to maintain the gap.

[0004] Meanwhile, the interposer market is growing due to the high specification of sets and the adoption of HBM (High Bandwidth Memory).Currently, organic materials are the mainstream for interposer materials due to the traditional substrate manufacturing method, but methods using glass materials are also being developed.

[0005] For high-speed HBM, it is necessary to be able to form small, dense vias. Glass substrates have better warpage characteristics and flatness than substrates made of organic materials, and are known to have fewer problems during internal processing and are advantageous for reducing L / S (Line and Space). Therefore, there is a need to develop an interposer substrate using glass. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0017] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, specific examples of embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0018] In the drawings, parts unnecessary for the explanation are omitted in order to clearly explain the present invention, and the same reference numerals are used throughout the specification to refer to the same or similar components. In addition, in the drawings, some components are exaggerated, omitted, or shown in a schematic manner, and the size of each component does not entirely reflect the actual size.

[0019] The drawings are intended to facilitate understanding of the embodiments disclosed in this specification, and are not intended to limit the technical ideas disclosed in this specification, but should be understood to include all modifications, equivalents, or alternatives included in the idea and technical scope of the present invention.

[0020] Terms including ordinal numbers such as first, second, etc. are used to describe various components, but the components are not limited by the terms. The terms are used only to distinguish one component from another.

[0021] Furthermore, when a layer, film, region, plate, or other part is said to be "on" or "above" another part, this does not only mean that it is "directly on" that other part, but also includes cases where there is another part in between. Conversely, when a part is said to be "directly on" another part, it means that there is no other part in between. Furthermore, being "on" or "above" a reference part means being located above or below the reference part, and does not necessarily mean being located "on" or "above" in the opposite direction of gravity.

[0022] Throughout the specification, the use of terms such as "comprises" or "having" is intended to specify the presence of a stated feature, number, step, operation, component, part, or combination thereof, but should be understood as not precluding the possible presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof. Thus, when a part is said to "comprise" a certain component, this does not mean that it may further include other components, but does not exclude other components, unless specifically stated to the contrary.

[0023] Also, throughout the specification, "on a plane" means a view of the subject part from above, and "on a cross section" means a view of the subject part cut vertically from the side.

[0024] Throughout this specification, when a part is referred to as being "coupled" to another part, this includes not only "direct or physical coupling" but also "indirect or non-contact coupling" via another element in between.

[0025] Furthermore, throughout the specification, when the term "connected" is used, it does not only mean that two or more components are directly connected, but also that two or more components are indirectly connected via other components, that they are not only physically connected but also electrically connected, or that they are referred to by different names depending on their position or function but are nonetheless one unit.

[0036] If necessary, a conductive film 401 is disposed between the first electronic element 400 and the core portion 101.

A molding material 402 is disposed in the space of the cavity 102 where the first electronic element 400 is not disposed. The molding material 402 fixes the first electronic element 400.

[0037] The interposer substrate 100 will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS.

[0038] 2 and 3, the core unit 101 is a glass substrate. The core unit 101 has a first surface and a second surface facing each other in a first direction. For example, an upper package 200 is disposed on an upper portion of the interposer substrate 100 in the first direction. A lower package 300 is disposed on a lower portion of the interposer substrate 100 in the first direction. The first surface is a surface of the semiconductor package 10 facing the upper package 200.

[0039] The via 110 penetrates from the first surface to the second surface of the core portion 101. A plurality of vias 110 are provided. The cavity 102 is located on the second surface of the core portion 101. The cavity 102 has a shape recessed from the second surface in the first direction. The via 110 is located on one side of the cavity 102. For example, a plurality of vias 110 are arranged along the periphery of the cavity 102. The plurality of vias 110 are arranged along one peripheral region of the cavity 102. The via 110 includes a first portion 111 that penetrates a portion of the core portion 101 from the first surface, and a second portion 112 that penetrates a remaining portion of the core portion 101 from the second surface to be connected to the first portion 111.
