Solution Overview

Problem

Existing packaging substrates face challenges with undulation when mounting elements of varying heights, which can affect the electrical characteristics and reliability of semiconductor devices.

Innovation Solution

A packaging substrate with a glass core and a cavity structure is developed, featuring cavity portions of different depths to accommodate elements of varying heights, along with a flat insulating layer and upper layer to ensure a flat core layer.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If elements of varying heights are mounted on a glass substrate, then the packaging substrate can accommodate different component designs, but undulation occurs affecting electrical characteristics

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to accommodate elements of varying heightsVSAvoidelectrical characteristics
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by creating cavity portions with different depths at specific locations on the glass substrate corresponding to the heights of mounted elements. This localized variation in cavity depth allows each element to be accommodated at its optimal height, ensuring flat upper surfaces while maintaining the ability to mount diverse components with varying heights.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Manufacturing precision

If cavity portions of different depths are formed in the glass substrate, then undulation is alleviated and a flat upper layer can be formed, but the manufacturing process becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflatness of the upper layerVSAvoidmanufacturing process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by forming the cavity portions of different depths in advance, before mounting the elements. This pre-formed cavity structure prepares the glass substrate to precisely accommodate elements of varying heights, ensuring that when elements are mounted and the upper layer is formed, a flat surface is achieved without requiring complex post-processing or adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
