13769 results about "Semiconductor package" patented technology

A semiconductor package is a metal, plastic, glass, or ceramic casing containing one or more discrete semiconductor devices or integrated circuits. Individual components are fabricated on semiconductor wafers (commonly silicon) before being diced into die, tested, and packaged. The package provides a means for connecting the package to the external environment, such as printed circuit board, via leads such as lands, balls, or pins; and protection against threats such as mechanical impact, chemical contamination, and light exposure. Additionally, it helps dissipate heat produced by the device, with or without the aid of a heat spreader. There are thousands of package types in use. Some are defined by international, national, or industry standards, while others are particular to an individual manufacturer.

Resilient contact structures formed and then attached to a substrate

Contact structures exhibiting resilience or compliance for a variety of electronic components are formed by bonding a free end of a wire to a substrate, configuring the wire into a wire stem having a springable shape, severing the wire stem, and overcoating the wire stem with at least one layer of a material chosen primarily for its structural (resiliency, compliance) characteristics. A variety of techniques for configuring, severing, and overcoating the wire stem are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a free end of a wire stem is bonded to a contact area on a substrate, the wire stem is configured to have a springable shape, the wire stem is severed to be free-standing by an electrical discharge, and the free-standing wire stem is overcoated by plating. A variety of materials for the wire stem (which serves as a falsework) and for the overcoat (which serves as a superstructure over the falsework) are disclosed. Various techniques are described for mounting the contact structures to a variety of electronic components (e.g., semiconductor wafers and dies, semiconductor packages, interposers, interconnect substrates, etc.), and various process sequences are described. The resilient contact structures described herein are ideal for making a "temporary" (probe) connections to an electronic component such as a semiconductor die, for burn-in and functional testing. The self-same resilient contact structures can be used for subsequent permanent mounting of the electronic component, such as by soldering to a printed circuit board (PCB). An irregular topography can be created on or imparted to the tip of the contact structure to enhance its ability to interconnect resiliently with another electronic component. Among the numerous advantages of the present invention is the great facility with which the tips of a plurality of contact structures can be made to be coplanar with one another. Other techniques and embodiments, such as wherein the falsework wirestem protrudes beyond an end of the superstructure, or is melted down, and wherein multiple free-standing resilient contact structures can be fabricated from loops, are described.

Package having very thin semiconductor chip, multichip module assembled by the package, and method for manufacturing the same

A semiconductor package of this invention has an insulating substrates, wiring layers disposed on the surface of the insulating substrate, a semiconductor chip disposed in a device hole provided in the insulating substrate, inner-joint-conductors for connecting at least part of the bonding pads on the surface of the semiconductor chip to the corresponding inner-joint-conductors and connection lands connected to the wiring layers. The device hole is provided so that it goes through the center of the insulating substrate. The semiconductor chip is thinner than the insulating substrate. Then, this semiconductor chip is disposed in the device hole such that a bottom thereof is flush with a bottom plane of the insulating substrate. Further, this invention provides a MCM in which plural pieces of the thin semiconductor packages are laminated. In the MCM, the semiconductor packages are laminated such that top and bottom faces of the thin silicon chip are inverted. Predetermined connection lands are electrically connected to each other through a connecting conductor. This MCM has a high mechanical strength in its stacked structure and there is a low possibility that crack may occur in the package due to stress in the bending direction.
