摘要:
A method for circuit fabrication includes inspecting an array of solder bumps on a circuit substrate so as to identify a solder bump having a height above the substrate that is greater than a predefined maximum. A first laser beam is directed toward the identified solder bump so as to ablate a selected amount of a solder material from the identified solder bump. Alternatively or additionally, a further solder bump having a height above the substrate that is less than a predefined minimum is identified, and one or more molten droplets of the solder material are deposited on the further solder bump. After ablating or depositing the solder material, a second laser beam is directed toward the identified solder bump with sufficient energy to cause the solder material in the identified solder bump to melt and reflow.

Many aspects of an improved IC package are disclosed herein. The improved IC package exhibits low-impedance and high power and signal integrity. The improved IC package comprises an IC die mounted on a multilayer coreless substrate. The thicknesses of prepreg layers of the coreless substrate are specific chosen to minimize warpage and to provide good mechanical performance. Each of the prepreg layers may have different coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and/or thickness to enable better control of the coreless substrate mechanical properties. The improved IC package also includes a vertically mounted die side capacitor and a conductive layer formed on the solder resist layer of the substrate. The conductive layer is formed such that it also encapsulates the vertically mounted capacitor while being electrically coupled to one of the capacitor's electrode.

A semiconductor device having a semiconductor substrate is provided. The semiconductor device has a metal structure over the semiconductor substrate. The metal structure is configured to receive a bump. The semiconductor device further has a conductive trace between the semiconductor substrate and the metal structure. The conductive trace is configured to connect to a power source. When an electric current from the power source passes through the conductive trace, an electromagnetic field is generated at the conductive trace. The position of the bump is adjusted in response to the electromagnetic field.

Techniques are described herein for a dip soldering process which provides a low-profile, low-cost solder bump formation process which may be implemented to promote package thickness scaling (e.g., reduce the overall package thickness). For example, the dip soldering process disclosed herein may enable ultra-thin wafer-level packages (WLP), ultra-thin wafer level quad-flat no-leads (WQFN) packages, or the like.
