摘要:
A copper nanorod thermal interface material (TIM) is described. The copper nanorod TIM includes a plurality of copper nanorods having a first end thermally coupled with a first surface, and a second end extending toward a second surface. A plurality of copper nanorod branches are formed on the second end. The copper nanorod branches are metallurgically bonded to a second surface. The first surface may be the back side of a die. The second surface may be a heat spread or a second die. The TIM may include a matrix material surrounding the copper nanorods. In an embodiment, the copper nanorods are formed in clusters.

A system and method for forming metal bumps is provided. An embodiment comprises attaching conductive material to a carrier medium and then contacting the conductive material to conductive regions of a substrate. Portions of the conductive material are then bonded to the conductive regions using a bonding process to form conductive caps on the conductive regions, and residual conductive material and the carrier medium are removed. A reflow process is used to reflow the conductive caps into conductive bumps.

A semiconductor device has a semiconductor die with a first conductive layer formed over an active surface of the semiconductor die. An insulation layer is formed over the active surface of the semiconductor die. A second conductive layer is conformally applied over the insulating layer and first conductive layer. Conductive pillars are formed over the first conductive layer. Conductive rings are formed around a perimeter of the conductive pillars. A conductive material is deposited over the surface of the conductive pillars within the conductive rings. A substrate has a third conductive layer formed over a surface of the substrate. The semiconductor die is mounted to a substrate with the third conductive layer electrically connected to the conductive material within the conductive rings. The conductive rings inhibit outward flow of the conductive material from under the conductive pillars to prevent electrical bridging between adjacent conductive pillars.

A semiconductor device and method of manufacture is provided. A reflowable material is placed in electrical connection with a through via, wherein the through via extends through an encapsulant. A protective layer is formed over the reflowable material. In an embodiment an opening is formed within the protective layer to expose the reflowable material. In another embodiment the protective layer is formed such that the reflowable material is extending away from the protective layer.

A self-assembled nanometer conductive bump and a method for fabricating the bump. In the method, a multiplicity of carbon nanotubes that are coated at two ends with chemically functional groups is first provided. A substrate that is equipped with at least one bond pad on a surface is then positioned juxtaposed to the carbon nanotubes for forming a bond between the carbon nanotubes and the metal pads facilitated by a chemical affinity existed between the functional groups and the metal pad.

A method of manufacture of an integrated circuit packaging system includes: forming a connection carrier having base device pads and base interconnect pads on a carrier top side of the connection carrier; connecting a base integrated circuit to the base device pads and mounted over the carrier top side; mounting base vertical interconnects directly on the base interconnect pads; attaching a base package substrate to the base integrated circuit and directly on the base vertical interconnects; forming a base encapsulation on the base package substrate, the base device pads, and the base interconnect pads; and removing a portion of the connection carrier with the base device pads and the base interconnect pads partially exposed opposite the base package substrate.
摘要:
A method of attaching a solder ball to a bonding pad includes disposing flux on the bonding pad, attaching a conductive metal ring to the pad using the flux, and placing the solder ball in the ring. A reflow operation is performed that secures the ring to the pad and melts the solder ball into and around the ring. A solder joint is formed between solder ball and the pad, with the ring secured within the ball. Use of the ring allows for higher stand-off height to be achieved with similar solder ball size, without having to use bigger ball size as in the conventional method, which causes solder ball bridging. With higher stand-off height, better board level reliability performance can be obtained.
