Description

circuit board

[0001] This embodiment relates to a circuit board.

[0002]

[0003] Electronic components employed in electronic devices include various active and passive circuit elements, and these circuit elements may be integrated into semiconductor chips or dies. Furthermore, the semiconductor chips or dies may be provided in the form of electronic packages mounted on a substrate including circuit wiring, such as a printed circuit board (PCB).

[0004] Meanwhile, flip-chip connection structures, which utilize connection structures to mount and electrically connect semiconductor chips on printed circuit boards, are widely used in electronic packages. For example, flip-chip connection structures utilizing bumps are advantageous for implementing stacked structures of various semiconductor chips. Furthermore, flip-chip connection structures facilitate the use of multiple connection structures to secure a large number of input / output (I / O) terminals.

[0005] Among the methods for forming such connection structures, there is the Solder-On-Pad (SOP) method. The SOP method manufactures connection structures by printing metallic paste or mounting ball-shaped solder on the connection pads on the upper surface of a printed circuit board exposed by a solder mask pattern, and then reflowing to form a spherical solder portion through the surface tension effect. However, as the integration level of semiconductor chips increases and their size decreases, there is a problem that the SOP method has limitations in implementing connection members with fine pitches.

[0006] Recently, a method of introducing a post-shaped bump as a connecting member has been proposed, but as the spacing between multiple pads is increasingly reduced for integration, the short-circuit defect rate between adjacent pads is increasing.

[0007]

[0008] The present invention provides a circuit board in which fine pitch implementation is easy in a plurality of bonding portion arrangement structures in which electrical connections are made.

[0009]

[0010] A circuit board according to the present embodiment includes a build-up structure in which a plurality of insulating layers are laminated; and a bonding portion arranged on one surface of the build-up structure, wherein the bonding portion includes a first portion, a second portion arranged on one surface of the first portion, and a third portion arranged on one surface of the second portion, and a horizontal width of the second portion is smaller than a horizontal width of the first portion and a horizontal width of the third portion.

[0011] A groove is arranged on the side of the above bonding portion, and the groove can overlap with the second portion in a horizontal direction.

[0012] The horizontal width of the first part may be greater than the horizontal width of the third part.

[0013] The horizontal width of the first part may be the same as the horizontal width of the third part.

[0014] The surface of the third part may be a curved surface with an outwardly protruding shape.

[0015] The surface of the third section may be a curved surface with a concave shape toward the second section.

[0016] The vertical length of the second part may be longer than the vertical length of the first part and the vertical length of the third part.

[0017] The vertical length of the third part may be shorter than the vertical length of the first part and the vertical length of the second part.

[0018] The second part and the third part are each provided in multiples and can be spaced apart horizontally from the surface of the first part.

[0019] The second part and the third part may have an area that overlaps in the horizontal direction.

[0020]

[0021] This embodiment has the advantage of easily implementing a plurality of fine pitch bonding portions on the surface of a build-up structure through a plurality of regions having different horizontal widths of the bonding portions.

[0036] Furthermore, when a component is described as being "exposed," it should not only mean that it is exposed to the exterior of the invention as defined in the present invention, but also that it is exposed to another component other than that component. That is, when it is described that B contained in A is exposed from A, it should not only mean that B is exposed to the exterior of the invention as defined in the present invention, but also that it is covered by another component, C, unless there are special circumstances.

[0037] Additionally, when it is described as being formed or arranged "above or below" each component, "above" or "below" includes not only cases where the two components are in direct contact with each other, but also cases where one or more other components are formed or arranged between the two components.

Furthermore, when "one side" refers to a side surface, unless otherwise specified, it should be understood that there are multiple sides. For example, if a rectangular solid has four sides between the upper and lower surfaces, for convenience of explanation, "one side" and / or "the other side" should be understood to refer to one of the four sides.

[0041] FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the bonding structure of a build-up structure and a bonding portion according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a circuit board (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a build-up structure (100) and a bonding portion (200).

[0043] The build-up structure (100) may include a plurality of insulating layers. The plurality of insulating layers may be arranged in a vertical direction. For example, the plurality of insulating layers may include a first insulating layer (101), a second insulating layer (102) arranged on an upper surface of the first insulating layer (101), a third insulating layer (103) arranged on an upper surface of the second insulating layer (102), a fourth insulating layer (104) arranged on an upper surface of the third insulating layer (103), a fifth insulating layer (105) arranged on an upper surface of the fourth insulating layer (104), a sixth insulating layer (106) arranged on an upper surface of the fifth insulating layer (105), a seventh insulating layer (107) arranged on an upper surface of the sixth insulating layer (106), and an eighth insulating layer (108) arranged on an upper surface of the seventh insulating layer (107). The first to eighth insulating layers (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108) can be laminated along the vertical direction.

[0044] The first to eighth insulating layers (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108) may each be any insulator, such as photocurable and / or thermosetting. As the thermosetting insulator, an insulator in which inorganic and / or organic fillers are dispersed in a resin, such as ABF (Ajinomoto Build-up Film), a product released by Ajinomoto Co., Ltd., may be used, and a prepreg (PPG) including glass fibers in a resin may be used. In addition, the resin described above may be, for example, an epoxy resin, a bismaleimide triazine resin (BT resin), a phenol resin, etc., and the inorganic and / or organic fillers may be provided with a material such as silica or plastic. When an insulating resin is used as a core, a reinforcing material provided with glass fibers or aramid fibers may be included. When the first to eighth insulating layers (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108) are photocurable insulators, the first to eighth insulating layers (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108) may each be a PID (Photo Imageable Dielectric).

[0045] The plurality of insulating layers may be formed of the same material, but alternatively, the material of at least one insulating layer among the plurality of insulating layers may be different from the material of the other insulating layers. Here, the meaning of the material being different includes the meaning of the composition or the content of a specific material being different. In addition, although not illustrated, a core layer (not illustrated) may be provided at the vertical center of the plurality of insulating layers to form the basis of the circuit board (10). The core layer may be omitted.

[0046] A circuit board (10) may include a circuit pattern for transmitting electrical signals and / or power to electronic devices such as semiconductor devices. The circuit pattern may include a plurality of wiring portions and a plurality of via portions.

[0047] A plurality of wiring portions may be respectively arranged on the surfaces of the plurality of insulating layers. Here, "arranged on the surface" may not only mean that the plurality of wiring portions are respectively arranged on the surfaces of the plurality of insulating layers, but may also mean that at least a portion of the plurality of wiring portions are buried within the plurality of insulating layers or protective layers and exposed to the outside from the surface. Since the wiring portions have the function of transmitting electrical signals or power, they may also be called conductive layers. "Arranged on the surface" means that the wiring portions are respectively arranged on at least one of one surface, the other surface, and the side surfaces of the plurality of insulating layers. The structure may have wiring portions arranged on one surface and the other surface of some of the plurality of insulating layers, and the structure may have wiring portions arranged on only one surface or the other surface of other portion of the plurality of insulating layers.

[0048] The plurality of wiring portions may include a first wiring portion (111) disposed on the upper surface of the first insulating layer (101), a second wiring portion (112) disposed on the upper surface of the second insulating layer (102), a third wiring portion (113) disposed on the upper surface of the third insulating layer (103), a fourth wiring portion (114) disposed on the upper surface of the fourth insulating layer (104), a fifth wiring portion (115) disposed on the upper surface of the fifth insulating layer (105), a sixth wiring portion (116) disposed on the upper surface of the sixth insulating layer (106), a seventh wiring portion (117) disposed on the upper surface of the seventh insulating layer (107), and an eighth wiring portion (118) disposed on the upper surface of the eighth insulating layer (108). The first to eighth wiring sections (111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118) may each be arranged to vertically overlap at least one other wiring section. The eighth wiring section (118) arranged on the upper surface of the build-up structure (100) may be referred to as a pad section. The eighth wiring section (118) may be provided in multiple numbers and may be arranged to be spaced apart from each other in the horizontal direction on the upper surface of the build-up structure (100).

[0049] The via portion may be a metal material arranged in a via hole formed in each of a plurality of insulating layers to connect a plurality of wiring portions or wiring portions and a bonding portion (200) facing each other in a vertical direction. Here, the via hole may vertically penetrate at least a portion of each of the plurality of insulating layers, and the via portion may be arranged within the via hole.

[0050] The via portion may include a first via portion (121) penetrating at least a portion of the first insulating layer (101), a second via portion (122) penetrating at least a portion of the second insulating layer (102), a third via portion (123) penetrating at least a portion of the third insulating layer (103), a fourth via portion (124) penetrating at least a portion of the fourth insulating layer (104), a fifth via portion (125) penetrating at least a portion of the fifth insulating layer (105), a sixth via portion (126) penetrating at least a portion of the sixth insulating layer (106), a seventh via portion (127) penetrating at least a portion of the seventh insulating layer (107), and an eighth via portion (128) penetrating at least a portion of the eighth insulating layer (108).

[0051] The first via portion (121) can electrically connect the first wiring portion (111) and the bonding portion (200). The second via portion (122) can electrically connect the first wiring portion (111) and the second wiring portion (112). The third via portion (123) can electrically connect the second wiring portion (112) and the third wiring portion (113). The fourth via portion (124) can electrically connect the third wiring portion (113) and the fourth wiring portion (114). The fifth via portion (125) can electrically connect the fourth wiring portion (114) and the fifth wiring portion (115). The sixth via portion (126) can electrically connect the fifth wiring portion (115) and the sixth wiring portion (116). The seventh via section (127) can electrically connect the sixth wiring section (116) and the seventh wiring section (117). The eighth via section (128) can electrically connect the seventh wiring section (117) and the eighth wiring section (118).

[0052] The first to fourth via sections (121, 122, 123, 124) may each have a shape in which the horizontal width increases as they go downward. The fifth to eighth via sections (125, 126, 127, 128) may each have a shape in which the horizontal width decreases as they go downward.

[0053] The circuit board (10) may include a bonding portion (200). The bonding portion (200) may be arranged on one surface of the build-up structure (100). For example, the bonding portion (200) may be arranged on the lower surface of the build-up structure (100), but is not limited thereto, and the bonding portion (200) may also be arranged on the upper surface of the build-up structure (100). The bonding portion (200) may be coupled to a semiconductor element. The bonding portion (200) may be electrically connected to the first wiring portion (111) through the first via portion (121).

[0054] As illustrated in Fig. 2, a plurality of bonding portions (200) may be provided and spaced apart horizontally. In this case, a pattern portion (290) may be arranged between a plurality of adjacent bonding portions (200). When the plurality of bonding portions (200) arranged on both sides of the pattern portion (290) are respectively named a first bonding portion and a second bonding portion, the horizontal separation distance between the first bonding portion and the pattern portion (290) may be the same as the horizontal separation distance between the second bonding portion and the pattern portion (290). Accordingly, the separation distance between the pattern portion (290) and the plurality of bonding portions is secured, thereby preventing an electrical short circuit from occurring.

[0055] The bonding portion (200) may include a first portion (210), a second portion (220) arranged on one side of the first portion (210), and a third portion (230) arranged on one side of the second portion (220). The first to third portions (210, 220, 230) may be arranged sequentially along the vertical direction. The second portion (220) may be arranged between the first portion (210) and the third portion (230).

[0056] The first part (210) can be arranged to overlap the pattern part (290) in a horizontal direction.

[0057] In this case, the horizontal width (d2) of the second part (220) may be smaller than the horizontal width (d1) of the first part (210) or the horizontal width (d3) of the third part (230).

[0058] In a circuit board according to the prior art, a single bonding portion having a certain width is provided on a pad placed on the surface of a build-up structure, and since a certain width of the pad is required for forming the bonding portion, there was a problem in that it was difficult to secure a pitch between adjacent pads.

[0059] According to the present embodiment, by arranging a second portion (220) having a smaller width than the first portion (210) on the first portion (210) and arranging a third portion (230) having a larger width than the second portion (220) on the second portion (220), a wide bonding area with a semiconductor element can be secured through the surface of the third portion (230), and the horizontal width of the first portion (210) can also be reduced compared to the prior art, so there is an advantage in that it is easy to implement fine misalignment of a plurality of first portions (210) arranged on the surface of the build-up structure (100).

[0060] On the side connecting one side and the other side of the bonding portion (200), a groove (229) having a concave shape compared to the other area can be arranged corresponding to the formation area of ​​the second portion (220).

[0061] The surface of the third portion (230) may be flat, but alternatively, a plurality of step surfaces having different vertical lengths from one surface of the build-up structure (100) may be arranged on the surface of the third portion (230). In this case, the bonding portion (200) may have improved bonding strength with the molding portion, which will be described later, due to an increase in the contact area with the molding portion that surrounds the bonding portion (200).

[0062] The vertical length (H2) of the second portion (220) may be longer than the vertical length (H1) of the first portion (210) or the vertical length (H3) of the third portion (230). Accordingly, by adjusting the length of the bonding portion (200) through the second portion (220) having a relatively small horizontal width, a sufficient horizontal separation distance from the adjacent pattern portion (290) or bonding portion (200) can be secured.

[0063] The vertical length (H1) of the first part (210) may be the same as the vertical length (H3) of the third part (230).

[0064] In FIG. 2, a single second part (220) and a single third part (230) are formed on a single first part (210) as an example, but this is not limited thereto, and as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of second parts (220) and third parts (230) spaced apart in the horizontal direction may be arranged on a single first part (210), and in this case, a wider bonding area with a semiconductor element may be secured.

[0065] A seed layer (260) may be disposed between the insulating layer of the build-up structure (100) and the bonding portion (200). The seed layer (260) may be disposed on one surface of the first insulating layer (101) on which the bonding portion (200) is disposed, and within the via hole. The bonding portion (200) and the first via portion (121) may be formed through the seed layer (260). The seed layer (260) may include a surface area (262) disposed on the surface of the first insulating layer (101), and a via area (264) disposed within the via hole of the first insulating layer (101). The surface area (262) and the via area (264) may be connected.

[0066] The surface area (262) may be arranged to overlap vertically with the first portion (210) or the third portion (230). The via area (264) may be arranged to overlap vertically with the second portion (220).

[0067] The horizontal width of the seed layer (260) may be formed to be equal to or smaller than the horizontal width of the first portion (210) of the bonding portion (200). When the horizontal width of the seed layer (260) is smaller than the horizontal width of the first portion (210), a concave groove may be formed on the side surface of the first portion (210). The groove formed on the side surface of the first portion (210) may be arranged to overlap the seed layer (260) in the horizontal direction.

[0068] FIGS. 3 to 9 are drawings illustrating the shapes of bonding portions according to various embodiments of the present invention. For convenience of explanation, various embodiments of the bonding portion (200) will be described by taking as an example a case where the bonding portion (200) is arranged on the upper surface of the build-up structure (100).

[0069] Referring to Fig. 3, the upper surface of the third portion (230) may be a curved surface. For example, the upper surface of the third portion (230) may be a convex surface (232) that is convex upward. In this case, the vertical length of the third portion (230) may be longer than the vertical length of the first portion (210) or the vertical length of the second portion (220). Due to the shape of the convex surface (232) of the third portion (230), the bonding portion (200) may include a plurality of regions having different vertical lengths from the semiconductor element.

[0070] A connecting member such as solder for electrical and physical bonding may be placed between the bonding member (200) and the semiconductor element. In this case, the bonding strength may be improved as the contact area between the connecting member and the bonding member (200) increases due to the shape of the convex surface (232) of the bonding member (200).

[0071] As a variation, the upper surface of the third portion (230) may be a concave surface that is concave in the direction toward the build-up structure (100), in which case the concave surface may be arranged at the horizontal center of the upper surface of the third portion (230). Accordingly, a bonding surface with a semiconductor element can be implemented through the edge of the upper surface of the third portion (230), and the bonding strength with the semiconductor element can be improved by securing an area for arranging a connecting member within the concave surface.

[0072] Referring to FIG. 4, the horizontal length (d1) of the first portion (210) may be formed to be longer than the horizontal length (d3) of the third portion (230). Accordingly, the horizontal length (d3) of the third portion (230) may be longer than the horizontal length (d2) of the second portion (220) and shorter than the horizontal length (d1) of the first portion (210). Accordingly, the horizontal distance between the plurality of third portions (230) forming the bonding surface of the semiconductor element may be formed to be long, and a bonding space for forming the second portion (220) and the third portion (230) on the first portion (210) may be secured more widely.

[0073] Referring to FIG. 5, the vertical length (H3) of the third portion (230) may be shorter than the vertical length (H1) of the first portion (210) or the vertical length (H2) of the second portion (220). Accordingly, when viewed from the side, the formation area of ​​the third portion (230) may have a shape that protrudes horizontally from the upper end of the formation area of ​​the second portion (220). Accordingly, compared to the various shapes of the bonding portion (200) described above, when the semiconductor element is bonded to the third portion (230), deformation of the third portion (230) may be minimized, thereby improving bonding strength with the semiconductor element.

[0074] Referring to Fig. 6, the second part (220) and the third part (230) may have an area that overlaps in a horizontal direction. A first protrusion (225) that protrudes upward is disposed on the upper surface of the second part (220), and the first protrusion (225) may be disposed to overlap at least a portion of the third part (230) in a horizontal direction. A first groove (235) to which the first protrusion (225) is coupled may be disposed on the lower surface of the third part (230) facing the first protrusion (225). The upper surface of the first protrusion (225) and the first groove (235) may each have a curved shape.

[0075] Referring to Fig. 7, a second protrusion (236) having a downwardly protruding shape may be arranged on the lower surface of the third portion (230). The second protrusion (236) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of the second portion (220) in a horizontal direction. A second groove (226) to which the second protrusion (236) is coupled may be arranged on the upper surface of the second portion (220) facing the second protrusion (236). The lower surface of the second protrusion (236) and the second groove (226) may each have a curved shape.

[0076] Referring to Fig. 8, the first part (210) and the second part (220) may have an area that overlaps in a horizontal direction. A third protrusion (227) having a shape that protrudes downward is arranged on the lower surface of the second part (220), and the third protrusion (227) may be arranged to overlap horizontally with at least a portion of the first part (210). A third groove (217) to which the third protrusion (227) is coupled may be arranged on the upper surface of the first part (210) facing the third protrusion (227). The lower surface of the third protrusion (227) and the third groove (217) may each have a curved shape.

[0077] Referring to Fig. 9, a fourth protrusion (218) protruding upwardly may be arranged on the upper surface of the first portion (210). The fourth protrusion (218) may be arranged to overlap at least a portion of the second portion (220) in a horizontal direction. A fourth groove (228) to which the fourth protrusion (218) is coupled may be arranged on the lower surface of the second portion (220) facing the fourth protrusion (218). The fourth protrusion (218) and the fourth groove (228) may each have a curved shape.

[0078] Accordingly, as in each of the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 9, the bonding strength between a plurality of regions arranged in the vertical direction can be improved through the horizontal overlapping region between the first part (210) and the second part (220) or the second part (220) and the third part (230).

[0079] FIGS. 10 to 18 are drawings for explaining the process of forming a bonding portion in a circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0080] Referring to FIG. 10, as described above, the build-up structure (100) may include a plurality of insulating layers. For example, the build-up structure (100) includes a first insulating layer (101) and a second insulating layer (102), and the first insulating layer (101) may be formed on the surface of the second insulating layer (102) on which the first wiring portion (111) and the second via portion (122) are formed.
