the temporary substrate 22 is removed and the resulting structure is shown in fig. 15.
The invention adopts plastic package technology (molding) to wrap the external chip and the SMT element in the packaging structure, and the MUF (molded Underfill) technology replaces the traditional Underfill technology to be applied to wafer level (wafer level) advanced integrated packaging, thereby not only meeting the plastic package requirements of different components, but also reducing the manufacturing procedures and the manufacturing cost, reducing the bonding surfaces of different materials in the chip, reducing the risk of component failure and improving the reliability of the component, and effectively reducing the size of the packaging structure through a multilayer bonding structure, improving the heat dissipation performance of the component and reducing the power consumption of the component.

The structure packaged by the method of the invention has better electric heating performance and high-efficiency transmission performance.
As an example, the first wiring layer is formed by first forming a first dielectric layer 13 on the carrier 11 by using a vapor deposition process, and then forming a first metal material layer on the surface of the first dielectric layer 13 by using one or more methods, including but not limited to a sputtering method, an electroplating method, an electroless plating method, and the like, and then performing photolithography etching on the first metal material layer to form a plurality of independent first metal bumps 14. The material of the first dielectric layer 13 includes but is not limited to one or a combination of epoxy resin, silica gel, PI, PBO, BCB, silicon oxide, phosphosilicate glass, fluorine-containing glass, and may also be other high-K dielectric materials; the material of the first metal bump 14 includes, but is not limited to, a combination (preferably a copper layer) of one or more of gold, silver, copper, aluminum, and the like. The first dielectric layer 13 and the first metal bump 14 may be of a single-layer or multi-layer structure, but it is necessary to ensure that the first metal bumps 14 of different layers are electrically connected to each other. The material and the manufacturing process of the second wiring layer may be the same as those of the first wiring layer, and a detailed description thereof is omitted.
The carrier 11 mainly plays a supporting role, and avoids the defects of bending deformation and the like in the device preparation process. By way of example, the carrier 11 includes, but is not limited to, a glass, a silicon substrate, a sapphire substrate, a ceramic substrate, a metal substrate, and the like, which have a certain hardness and are not easily bent. In this embodiment, a transparent substrate such as a glass substrate is preferable, which facilitates that UV light irradiation can be performed from the back surface of the carrier 11 to peel the carrier 11 from the separation layer 12 later when peeling the separation layer 12. Before the separation layer 12 is prepared, the carrier 11 may be washed and dried.
The separation layer 12 may be a single-layer or multi-layer structure, and may include, for example, a release layer and a protective layer on the surface of the release layer. Specifically, the release layer includes, but is not limited to, a combination of one or more of a carbon material layer, a resin material layer, and an organic material layer, and the protective layer includes, but is not limited to, a polyimide layer. For example, the carrier 11 is a transparent substrate such as glass, and the separation layer 12 is a UV resin layer, and the separation layer 12 may be peeled off by irradiating the separation layer 12 from the back surface of the carrier 11 at the time of subsequent peeling. The separation layer 12 may also be an LTHC light-to-heat conversion layer, and the subsequent step may be heating the LTHC light-to-heat conversion layer based on a method such as laser, so as to separate the carrier 11 from the LTHC light-to-heat conversion layer, thereby reducing the difficulty of the stripping process and preventing the device from being damaged. The method for forming the separation layer 12 may be determined according to the material thereof, and may be one or more selected from spin coating, spray coating, direct attachment, and the like.
The temporary substrate 22 may be made of the same material as the carrier 11, and includes, but is not limited to, a substrate that has a certain hardness and is not easily bent and deformed, such as a glass substrate, a silicon substrate, a sapphire substrate, a ceramic substrate, a metal substrate, etc., and a separation material layer may also be formed on the surface of the substrate to facilitate subsequent peeling.
As an example, the first molding compound layer 17 and/or the second molding compound layer 21 may be formed by a combination of one or more methods including, but not limited to, compression molding, transfer molding, liquid sealing, vacuum lamination, spin coating, and the like, and the materials of the first molding compound layer 17 and the second molding compound layer 21 include, but not limited to, a combination of one or more of polyimide, silicone, and epoxy. In order to simplify the manufacturing process, the material and the forming process of the first molding layer 17 and the second molding layer 21 are preferably the same.
The invention can package a plurality of chips at the same time, for example, package a wafer formed with a plurality of chips. Thus, after removing the temporary substrate 22, a step of cutting the resulting structure to separate into a plurality of individual devices is also required. Specifically, as shown in fig. 16, after the temporary substrate 22 is peeled, the resulting structure is transferred to a dicing station and then diced using techniques including, but not limited to, laser dicing to separate individual devices comprising the foregoing structures.
