技术领域
本发明大体上涉及一种具有垂直连接器的集成电路(IC)芯片,且更具体来说,涉及一种具有由垂直导线形成的垂直连接器的IC芯片。
背景技术
电子封装(或简称“封装”)可指内建到电子产品(例如集成电路(IC)芯片)中的外壳及保护性特征。电子封装适用于终端产品及组件两者。电子系统的封装必须考虑防止机械损坏、冷却、射频噪音发射、静电放电保护、维护、操作员便利性及成本。半导体封装可为含有一或多个半导体电子组件的金属、塑料、玻璃或陶瓷壳体。在封装中切割及组装之前,通常在硅晶片中蚀刻个别离散组件。封装防止碰撞及腐蚀且耗散装置中产生的热量。

具体实施方式
集成电路(IC)芯片可包含结合膜辅助模具以在IC芯片(或封装)(包含扁平无引线封装,例如四边扁平无引线(QFN)封装或双边扁平无引线(DFN)封装)中形成垂直连接器(例如,垂直连接点)的垂直导线。垂直导线可经由标准导线结合平台(包含带结合技术)而放置且可从IC芯片的裸片表面或从引线框引线延伸,穿过模制化合物,且暴露在与IC芯片的引线框相对的表面处,所述表面可简称为相对表面(或“顶部”表面)。
此外,可将焊球或焊膏施加到暴露导线,从而使更大面积能够用于表面安装技术(SMT)。而且,在一些实例中,这个焊膏或焊球可为无铅(Pb)的(例如导电环氧树脂),由此降低二次回流过程的影响。在形成垂直连接器之后,可通过在制造IC芯片时或在另一装置中安装IC芯片时使用表面安装技术(SMT)技术而将所要组件(或多个组件)粘附到IC芯片的相对侧。
图1说明IC芯片50的实例,其可用以实施垂直连接器52(例如,垂直连接点)以将外部组件连接到IC芯片50。垂直连接器52可为垂直导线54的组件,所述垂直导线54沿远离引线框56的方向延伸且从IC芯片50的囊封材料57的相对表面突出以形成垂直连接器52。如本文中所使用,术语“垂直导线”(包含垂直导线54)表示沿相对于形成IC芯片50的表面(例如,IC芯片50的“底部”表面)的引线框56的表面正交(例如,垂直)的方向延伸的导线。
IC芯片50的引线框56可将来自裸片58上的互连件上的点的信号载送到在IC芯片50外部的组件。引线框56可由金属(例如铜或金)形成。裸片58可形成为制造IC芯片50的给定功能电路的半导体材料块(例如,硅)。在一些实例中,垂直导线54可直接导电连接到裸片58。在其它实例中,垂直导线54可经由导线结合或引线框56上的引线导电耦合到裸片58。
图2说明可用以实施图1的IC芯片50的IC芯片100的实例。IC芯片100包含具有垂直连接器104的垂直导线102,所述垂直连接器104延伸超出IC芯片100的囊封材料106的边界。
举例来说,囊封材料106可为塑料或类似的惰性且非导电材料。IC芯片100的给定表面105(例如,“底部”)可包含引线框108。因此,引线框108可形成给定表面105或其某个部分。在图2中所说明的实例中,引线框108是由多个部分形成。在图2中所说明的实例中,引线框108包含暴露裸片焊盘110及引线112。引线框108可具有许多引线(例如,高达约100个),所述引线在将IC芯片100安装于电路中之后通过给定表面105耦合到其它装置。举例来说,暴露裸片焊盘110可耦合到散热器。裸片114可经由裸片结合材料116安装在暴露裸片焊盘110上。裸片结合材料116可为导热但电绝缘的材料,例如热膏。引线112(及引线框108的其它部分)可由导电材料(例如铜或金)形成。
导线结合118在有源表面115上的互连件、裸片114与引线112之间形成导电路径。在图2所说明的实例中,裸片114具有背对引线框108的有源表面(互连件上具有点的表面)。垂直导线102可安装在引线框108的引线112上。在一些实例中,垂直导线102可经定位以使用标准导线结合平台(包含带结合技术)终止在引线112上。此外,可形成垂直导线102以补偿由囊封材料106的固化引起的导线偏移。此外,可使用模制过程(例如,膜辅助模制)形成垂直导线102的垂直连接器104,所述模制过程可避免蚀刻及/或磨去囊封材料106的部分的需要。垂直导线102可从引线112的给定表面105垂直延伸(例如,沿基本上垂直的方向),穿过囊封材料106,使得垂直连接器104暴露在与引线框108的表面相对的表面处,所述表面可称为相对表面120(或“顶部”表面)。可通过处理技术(例如膜辅助模制)形成垂直导线102。外部组件(例如离散无源电路组件(例如,相对大电感器或电容器)或另一IC芯片100(例如,数字电路组件))可按本文中所描述的方式耦合到垂直连接器104。
图3及4描绘在不同电路中实施的图2的IC芯片100的特定实例。出于简化解释的目的,在图2到4中使用相同参考数字来表示相同结构。IC芯片100耦合到安装在(例如粘附到)IC芯片100上的外部SMT组件122。SMT组件122可为相对高功率的无源组件,例如电感器。SMT组件122可包含耦合到IC芯片100的垂直连接器104的连接器124。此外,焊膏126可施加到垂直连接器104以经由垂直导线102、引线框108的引线112及导线结合118将SMT组件122导电耦合到裸片114。在图3中,仅说明SMT组件122的部分。在一些实例中,可包含SMT组件122的另一连接器,其可连接到IC芯片100上的另一裸片(例如,从图3中所说明的视角隐去的裸片)。
图4说明与图3类似的配置。然而,使用预沉积焊球128来代替焊膏126。而且,在图4中,第二导线结合130可通向引线框108的第二引线132。第二引线132可使用第二垂直连接器136耦合到第二垂直导线134。第二焊球138可粘附到第二垂直连接器136。此外,第二垂直连接器136可耦合到SMT组件122的第二连接器140。因此,在图4中所说明的IC芯片100的配置中,可通过SMT组件122在裸片114的互连件上的不同点(连接到导线结合118及130)之间形成全电流路径。
图5说明图2的IC芯片100的另一特定实例。出于简化解释的目的,在图2到5中使用相同参考数字来表示相同结构。在图5中,IC芯片100耦合到外部高功率组件142。举例来说,高功率组件142可为变压器。高功率组件142可包含大表面连接器144,例如通向变压器的引线。如本文中所使用,大表面连接器可传导高功率信号(例如,高达约100瓦(W))。
在图5中所说明的实例中,垂直连接器104可连接到横杆145以形成高功率连接件147。高功率连接件147还可包含后退部分146,所述后退部分146可在一些实例中导回到引线框108的第二引线132。在其它实例中,后退部分146可终止在未到达第二引线132处。以这种方式,高功率连接件147(包含垂直导线102、横杆145及后退部分146)可形成'U'或“钉”形状以增大表面积(与垂直连接器104自身相比)以对高功率组件142提供足够电流及电压。高功率连接件147的横杆145、垂直连接器104及后退部分146(或其一些部分)可为支持高功率(例如,高达约100W)的带结合导线。与图3类似,在图5中,仅说明高功率组件142的部分。在一些实例中,可包含高功率组件142的另一连接器,其可连接到IC芯片100上的另一裸片(例如,从图5中所说明的视角隐去的裸片)。或者,高功率组件142的另一连接器可按与关于图4所说明的配置类似的方式连接到裸片114的互连件上的另一点。
在IC芯片100的一些实例中,可包含多个平行(或偏移)垂直导线。举例来说,在图5中,可包含高功率连接器147的额外个例,所述额外个例从图5的说明隐去。另外或替代地,还可包含IC芯片100的其它组件的多个个例,例如裸片114。图6从相对表面120(无高功率组件)的视角说明图5的IC芯片100的实例,其可称为“俯视”图。
在图6中,在IC芯片100上包含给定裸片180及另一裸片182。而且,介入裸片183可经定位于给定裸片与另一裸片182之间。给定裸片180及另一裸片182中的每一者可实施为裸片114的个例。给定裸片180及另一裸片182可分别连接到引线184及186(其可为引线112的个例)。而且,每一引线184及186可分别连接到一组两(2)个电源连接器188及190。在图6中所说明的实例中,交错裸片183未连接到电源连接器。所述组电源连接器188及190中的每一电源连接器可为图5的电源连接器147的个例。包含所述组电源连接器188及190可进一步增大由IC芯片100支持的功率。在其它实例中,更多或更少电源连接器可包含在每一组电源连接器188及190中。
在一些实例中,组件(例如高功率组件142)可耦合在所述组电源连接器188与190之间。以这种方式,给定裸片180及另一裸片182可经由高功率组件通信地耦合。
图7说明实施垂直连接器152的替代配置的图2中所说明的IC芯片100的另一实例。出于简化解释的目的,在图2及6中使用相同参考数字来表示相同结构。在图7中,垂直导线154直接连接到裸片114的有源表面115上的互连件上的点。而且,垂直导线154从囊封材料106突出以形成垂直连接器152。以这种方式,引线112经释放以连接到另一组件(或连接到另一垂直连接器)。例如在IC芯片100连接到具有相对小表面积(例如小占用面积)的外部组件的情况下,可使用图7中所说明的配置。因此,在外部组件适配(或接近适配)在由假想线A-A界定的边界(暴露裸片焊盘110的边界)内的情况下,可使用图7的IC芯片100。
再次参考图2,通过使用垂直导线102实施IC芯片100,可实现空间节省。举例来说,可使用先前未用空间,即,与相对表面120相邻(例如,在相对表面120上方)的空间。以这种方式,可容易地实施芯片堆叠。电路封装(例如电力供应器及/或系统级封装(SiP))可受益于具有垂直导线102的IC芯片100的架构。
包含垂直导线102及垂直连接器104可减少或消除使用基于衬底的互连件(例如,印刷电路板(PCB))的昂贵衬底中的嵌入式有源装置来存取外部SMT组件的需要。举例来说,组件可直接安装在IC芯片100上(例如,粘附到IC芯片100)(如图3到5中所说明),使得无需中间衬底(例如,PCB)。另外或替代地,可在具有更多空间或更大扁平无引线组件的带引线封装中实施SiP,其中X/Y空间非常有限。
图8说明可用以实施图1的IC芯片50的IC芯片200的另一替代实例。IC芯片200包含具有垂直连接器204的垂直导线202,所述垂直连接器204延伸超出IC芯片200的囊封材料206的边界。
例如,囊封材料206可为塑料或类似的惰性且非导电材料(例如,与图2到6的囊封材料106类似)。IC芯片200的给定表面207(例如,“底部”表面)可包含引线框208(及/或由引线框208组成)。引线框208可包含多个引线210,所述引线210经由连接材料214耦合到IC芯片200的裸片212上的互连件上的多个对应点。举例来说,连接材料214可实施为焊球或铜柱。
裸片212可具有面对引线框208的有源表面216。因此,裸片的有源表面216背对IC芯片200的表面218(称为相对表面218或“顶部”表面),所述表面218与引线框208相对。以这种方式,可通过使用倒装芯片技术或“热棒”技术而安装裸片114。
垂直导线202可从引线框208的给定引线219沿基本上垂直的方向延伸。给定引线219还可连接到裸片212的特定互连件。给定引线219可经由连接材料214导电连接到裸片212及垂直导线202。垂直导线202突出穿过IC芯片200的相对表面218以形成垂直连接器204。
垂直连接器204可用以在外部组件(包含SMT组件220)与耦合到给定引线219的裸片212的互连件上的点之间提供导电耦合。举例来说,垂直连接器204可耦合到SMT组件220的连接器222(例如,引线)。
倒装芯片(或铜柱)技术可用以制造IC芯片200。而且,IC芯片200可实现与关于图2所说明及所描述的IC芯片100相同或类似的优点。此外,IC芯片200可经修改以适应各种应用环境,包含关于图3到5所说明及所描述的应用环境(例如,全电流路径、高功率外部组件及/或高功率连接件)。
而且,与图3及5类似,在图8中,仅说明SMT组件220的部分。然而,在一些实例中,SMT组件的另一连接器可耦合到IC芯片200上的另一裸片,所述裸片可从图8中所说明的视角隐去。或者,SMT组件220的另一连接器可按与关于图4中所说明的配置类似的方式连接到裸片212的互连件上的另一点。
图9说明在制造多个垂直连接器254期间施加到IC芯片252的膜辅助模具250的部分的实例。膜辅助模具250可用以辅助制造图1的IC芯片50、图2到6的IC芯片100及/或图8的IC芯片150。IC芯片252可包含多个焊球256(或其它连接器)。多个焊球256中的每一者连接到IC芯片252上的互连件的个别点。多个垂直导线258可从IC芯片252延伸,穿过IC芯片252的包覆件260以形成垂直连接器254。
模制膜262可在垂直连接器254上流动,且膜辅助模具250的模制工具264可用以“夹紧”在IC芯片252上以将压力施加到模制膜262。在固化模制膜262之后,即可释放/移除模制工具264,这可致使模制膜262也被移除。仅模制膜262的小保护性涂层(膜)留在垂直导线258的尖端上以形成垂直连接器254。
图10说明在移除膜辅助模具250之后的IC芯片的图。在图10中,说明IC芯片的多个垂直连接器300。再次参考图9,通过使用膜辅助模具250,可在生产制造环境中有效地且重复地形成垂直连接器254而无需昂贵的研磨及/或蚀刻技术。
在本描述中,术语“基于”意指至少部分基于。
在所描述实施例中进行修改是可能的,且在权利要求书的范围内的其它实施例是可能的。
