Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to packaging, and particularly to a fan-out wafer level packaging (FOWLP) unit and a packaging constituted by stacking thereof.

Background Art

[0002] In FOWLP, which is an advanced packaging technology, the redistribution layer (RDL) is considered the most important because each conductive wire in the RDL serves to electrically extend and interconnect multiple die pads on the die in the XY plane direction, and can form a plurality of solder pads dispersed around the die, thereby more effectively improving the design space and reliability of each conductive wire. However, in order to maintain or achieve a certain degree of light weight, thinness, and miniaturization of the RDL at the same time, the fabrication of each conductive wire in the RDL becomes the most important.

[0003] However, in the RDL technology applied in the conventional FOWLP packaging technology, as a method for forming each conductive wire, a chemical plating technology or an electroplating formation process is adopted. In such a method, not only the material cost and manufacturing cost become relatively high, but also the process in the conventional technology does not meet the environmental requirements.

[0004] Also, in the FOWLP unit, when packaging constituted by stacking is required to improve performance or computing power, how to enable the FOWLP unit to easily perform stacked packaging and achieve mass production is an important issue to be improved.
