Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、一般的に半導体装置に関し、特に、パッケージ内に複数の半導体基板(以下、「チップ」ともいう)が実装されたシステムインパッケージ(Systemin Package)と呼ばれる半導体装置に関する。さらに、本発明は、そのような半導体装置の製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
パッケージ内に複数のチップが実装されたシステムインパッケージと呼ばれる半導体装置においては、例えば、1つのメイン基板上に複数のチップを実装し、これらのチップに設けられたパッド間を配線することにより、システムが構成される。その際に用いられる配線技術としては、ワイアボンディングが主流であるが、半導体装置を小型化するために、メタルスパッタ及びエッチング処理によって配線をパターン形成することにより10μm程度の線幅の配線で結線する方法(マイクロコネクト)も考えられる。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、メタルスパッタ及びエッチング処理を行う場合には、高価な装置やクリーンルームが必要になると共に、製造工程も複雑になってしまう。また、試作段階において少数のシステムインパッケージを製造する際にも、量産する場合と同様の高価な装置やクリーンルームが必要になってしまう。
【0004】
そこで、上記の点に鑑み、本発明は、1つのメイン基板上に複数のチップを実装することによって構成される半導体装置において、メタルスパッタやエッチング処理を行わずに複数のチップ間を10μm程度の線幅の配線で結線することにより、半導体装置を小型化すると共に、製造工程を簡素化して製造コストを削減することを目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の課題を解決するために、本発明の第1の観点に係る半導体装置は、複数の溝が形成された絶縁性を有するチップアダプタと、入出力パッド及び所定の回路が形成され、チップアダプタの複数の溝にそれぞれ挿入された複数の半導体基板と、複数の半導体基板及びチップアダプタ上に形成され、複数の半導体基板間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続する配線とを具備する。
【0006】
ここで、配線が、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて導電性材料を含むインクを複数の半導体基板及びチップアダプタ上に塗布することによって形成されたものであっても良い。
【0007】
また、本発明の第2の観点に係る半導体装置は、メイン基板と、入出力パッド及び所定の回路が形成され、メイン基板上に固定された複数の半導体基板と、メイン基板の所定の領域に形成された絶縁体と、複数の半導体基板及び絶縁体又はメイン基板上に形成され、複数の半導体基板間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続する配線とを具備する。
【0008】
ここで、配線が、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて導電性材料を含むインクを複数の半導体基板及び絶縁体又はメイン基板上に塗布することによって形成されたものであっても良い。
【0009】
本発明の第1の観点に係る半導体装置の製造方法は、入出力パッド及び所定の回路が形成された複数の半導体基板を、絶縁性を有するチップアダプタに形成された複数の溝にそれぞれ挿入するステップ(a)と、複数の半導体基板及びチップアダプタ上に配線を形成し、複数の半導体基板間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続するステップ(b)とを具備する。
【0010】
ここで、ステップ(b)が、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて導電性材料を含むインクを複数の半導体基板及びチップアダプタ上に塗布することによって配線を形成することを含んでも良い。
【0011】
また、本発明の第2の観点に係る半導体装置の製造方法は、入出力パッド及び所定の回路が形成された複数の半導体基板をメイン基板上に固定するステップ(a)と、メイン基板の所定の領域に絶縁体を形成するステップ(b)と、複数の半導体基板及び絶縁体又はメイン基板上に配線を形成し、複数の半導体基板間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続するステップ(c)とを具備する。
【0012】
ここで、ステップ(c)が、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて導電性材料を含むインクを複数の半導体基板及び絶縁体又はメイン基板上に塗布することによって配線を形成することを含んでも良い。
【0013】
本発明によれば、複数の溝が形成された絶縁性を有するチップアダプタを用いるか、あるいは、メイン基板上に絶縁体を形成することにより、チップアダプタ又は絶縁体の高さと複数の半導体基板の高さとを揃え、インクジェット方式のプリンタ等を用いて、複数のチップ間に10μm程度の線幅の配線を容易に形成することができる。これにより、半導体装置を小型化すると共に、製造工程を短縮して製造コストを削減することが可能となる。
【0014】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照しながら詳しく説明する。なお、同一の構成要素には同一の参照番号を付して、説明を省略する。
図1は、本発明の第1の実施形態に係る半導体装置の平面図であり、図2は、図1に示す2−2における断面図である。
【0015】
図1及び図2に示すように、この半導体装置は、複数の溝が形成された絶縁性を有するチップアダプタ10と、入出力パッドP及び所定の回路が形成され、チップアダプタ10の複数の溝にそれぞれ挿入された複数のチップ(LSI)11〜19と、これらのLSI及びチップアダプタ10上に形成され、複数のLSI間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続する配線20とを含んでいる。
【0016】
本発明の第1の実施形態に係る半導体装置の製造方法について説明する。
まず、絶縁基板に、LSI11〜19の厚さとほぼ等しい深さを有する複数の溝をそれぞれ形成することにより、チップアダプタ10を作成する。次に、これらのLSIを、チップアダプタ10に形成された複数の溝にそれぞれ挿入して固定する。各々のLSIには、入出力パッドP及び所定の回路が形成されており、図2に示すように、入出力パッドPが上側を向くように、これらのLSIが配置される。このようにして、各々のLSIの高さとチップアダプタ10の高さとの間に、なるべく段差を与えないようにする。
【0017】
次に、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて、配線20を印刷によって形成する。即ち、導電性材料を含むインクをLSI11〜19及びチップアダプタ10上に塗布することにより、10μm程度の線幅を有する配線20を形成する。導電性材料としては、例えば、導電性ポリマやAg−Pd(銀−パラジウム)合金を用いることができる。なお、Ag−Pd合金を用いる場合には、印刷工程の後に、焼成工程を設けることが望ましい。配線20の形成により、複数のLSI間において、入出力パッド同士が電気的に接続される。
【0018】
本実施形態においては、配置・配線プログラムを用いて設計された半導体装置のパターンデータを、印刷による配線の形成にも利用している。これにより、コンピュータによって自動的にプリンタを操作することが可能となり、配線を形成するためのコストを省き、工程を大幅に短縮することができる。
【0019】
次に、本発明の第2の実施形態に係る半導体装置について説明する。図3は、本発明の第2の実施形態に係る半導体装置の一部を示す断面図である。
図3に示すように、この半導体装置は、メイン基板30と、入出力パッドP及び所定の回路が形成され、メイン基板30上に固定された複数のチップ(LSI)12及び13と、メイン基板30の所定の領域に形成された絶縁体40と、複数のLSI及び絶縁体40上に形成され、複数のLSI間において入出力パッド同士を電気的に接続する配線50とを含んでいる。なお、メイン基板30は、絶縁性を有していても導電性を有していてもかまわない。
【0020】
本発明の第2の実施形態に係る半導体装置の製造方法について説明する。
まず、メイン基板30上において、LSI11〜19の厚さとほぼ等しい厚さを有する絶縁体40を所定の領域に形成する。例えば、LSI12及び13の厚さが400μmである場合には、絶縁体40の厚さも、ほぼ400μmとする。
次に、LSI12及び13を、メイン基板30上において絶縁体40が形成されてない領域に固定する。なお、絶縁体を形成する工程とLSIを固定する工程との順序は、逆にしても良い。各々のLSIには、入出力パッドP及び所定の回路が形成されており、図3に示すように、入出力パッドPが上側を向くように、これらのLSIが配置される。このようにして、各々のLSIの高さと絶縁体40の高さとの間に、なるべく段差を与えないようにする。
【0021】
次に、インクジェット方式のプリンタを用いて、配線50を印刷によって形成する。即ち、導電性材料を含むインクをLSI12及び13と絶縁体40上に塗布することにより、10μm程度の線幅を有する配線50を形成する。配線50の形成により、複数のLSI間において、入出力パッド同士が電気的に接続される。
【0022】
次に、本発明の第3の実施形態に係る半導体装置について説明する。図4は、本発明の第3の実施形態に係る半導体装置の一部を示す断面図である。本発明の第3の実施形態においては、絶縁体に滑らかなスロープを設けている点が、第2の実施形態と異なっている。
【0023】
図4に示すように、本実施形態においては、メイン基板60上において、LSI12及び13の近傍における所定の領域のみに絶縁体70が形成されている。
従って、配線80は、これらのLSI及び絶縁体70上のみならず、メイン基板60上にも形成されることになる。そのため、メイン基板60は、絶縁性を有する必要がある。
【0024】
本発明の第3の実施形態に係る半導体装置の製造方法について説明する。
まず、LSI12及び13を、メイン基板60上の所定の領域に固定する。各々のLSIには、入出力パッドP及び所定の回路が形成されており、図4に示すように、入出力パッドPが上側を向くように、これらのLSIが配置される。次に、メイン基板60上において、これらのLSIの近傍における所定の領域のみに絶縁体70を形成する。
