Abstract:
A semiconductor package substrate structure and a manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. The structure includes a substrate having a plurality of electrical connecting pads formed on at least one surface thereof; a plurality of electroplated conductive posts each covering a corresponding one of the electrical connecting pads and an insulating protective layer formed on the surface of the substrate and having a revealing portion for exposing the electroplated conductive posts therefrom. The invention allows the interval between the electroplated conductive posts to be minimized, the generation of concentrated stresses and the overflow of underfill to be avoided, as well as the reduction of the overall height of the fabricated package.
Abstract:
Various semiconductor chip packages with undermounted passive devices and methods of making the same are disclosed. In one aspect, a method of manufacturing is provided that includes coupling a semiconductor chip to a first side of a carrier substrate where the carrier substrate includes a second side opposite the first side. At least one passive device is coupled to the second side of the carrier substrate. The at least one passive device includes at least one first terminal electrically coupled to the semiconductor chip and at least one second terminal adapted to couple to a printed circuit board.

Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a main pad part and a sub pad part formed in a peripheral area of at least one side of the main pad part. The sub pad part is spaced apart from the main pad part. The sub pad part operates in a first state in which the sub pad part is short-circuited with the main pad part or in a second state in which the sub pad part is open from the main pad part.
Abstract:
Provided is a semiconductor device having a high-reliability solder joint. The semiconductor device includes a high-temperature solder formed on a conductive pad. A low-temperature solder having a lower melting point than the high-temperature solder is formed on the high-temperature solder. A barrier layer is formed between the high-temperature solder and the low-temperature solder. An Sn content of the high-temperature solder is higher than that of the low-temperature solder.
Abstract:
A solder joint comprising a solder capture pad on a substrate having a circuit; and a lead free solder selected from the group comprising Sn—Ag—Cu solder and Sn—Ag solder adhered to the solder capture pad; the solder selected from the group comprising between 0.1 to 2.0% by weight Sb or Bi, and 0.5 to 3.0% Ag. Formation of voids at an interface between the solder and the solder capture pad is suppressed, by including Zn. Interlayer dielectric delamination is suppressed, and electromigration characteristics are greatly improved. Methods for forming solder joints using the solders.
