Abstract:
A process of forming a semiconductor integrated circuit that includes the steps of: forming at least a first element having a first pattern of conductive material and including a polymer layer surrounding the conductive material, forming at least a second element having a second pattern of conductive material and including a polymer layer surrounding the conductive material, positioning the first element relative to the second element, and bonding the polymer layer of the first and second elements at a temperature below a melting temperature of the conductive materials of the first and second elements wherein the conductive material of the first element contacts the conductive material of the second element and is maintained in position by the bonded polymer layers.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a semiconductor die. The semiconductor die has a contact pad. A first conductive layer is formed over the contact pad. A conductive shell having a hollow core is formed over the first conductive layer. A compliant material is deposited in the hollow core. The semiconductor die is mounted over a substrate with the conductive shell electrically connected to a conductive trace on the substrate. A second conductive layer is formed over the conductive shell. The compliant material is an insulating material. A bump material is deposited around the conductive shell. A pre-solder material is deposited over the conductive trace. The conductive shell has a cross-sectional width less than 7 micrometers. The second conductive layer is a conductive lip. Mounting the semiconductor die over the substrate further includes mounting the semiconductor die over the substrate in a bump on lead (BOL) configuration.

Abstract:
A semiconductor module having one or more integrated antennas in a single package is provided herein to comprise a bonding interconnect structure having a plurality of individual bonding elements that are confined to a relatively small area of the bottom of a package. In particular, the semiconductor module comprises a bonding interconnect structure configured to connect an integrated package to a printed circuit board (PCB), wherein the integrated antenna structures are located at greater center-to-center distance from the IC device than the three dimensional interconnect structures. Therefore, the bonding interconnect structures are confined to a connection area that causes a part of the package containing the one or more antenna structures to extend beyond the bonding interconnect structure as a cantilevered structure. Such a bonding interconnect structure result in a package that is in contact with a PCB at a relatively small area that supports the load of the package.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving the thermal conductivity of a circuit board (CB) assembly comprising an integrated circuit (IC) die mounted on a CB. A high thermal conductivity device is attached on a first end to a surface of the die. When the die is mounted on the CB, a void formed in the CB receives a second end of the HTC device, and the second end of the HTC device comes into contact with a portion of the CB. During operation of the die, heat produced by the die is dissipated through the HTC device and into the CB.
