Description

この発明は、配線基板への実装効率を高め、高密度実装を可能にし、信頼性の高い基板実装を実現できるチップ状の半導体装置に関するものであり、特に半導体チップ上で外部端子用の電極パッドが再配線され、外部端子が2次元エリア配置された半導体装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a chip-like semiconductor device capable of improving mounting efficiency on a wiring board, enabling high-density mounting, and realizing highly reliable board mounting, and more particularly, electrode pads for external terminals on a semiconductor chip. Relates to a semiconductor device in which the wiring is rewired and the external terminals are arranged in a two-dimensional area.

近年、携帯機器の軽量小型化、高密度化にともない、リード端子を外部端子として有した半導体パッケージの高密度実装化が進む中、より高密度実装を図るため、チップ状の半導体装置を電子機器の配線基板等に実装する技術が開発されている。   In recent years, with the reduction in weight and size and the increase in density of portable devices, semiconductor packages having lead terminals as external terminals are being mounted with higher density. A technology for mounting on a wiring board or the like has been developed.

以下、従来の配線基板への基板実装における半導体装置と、その半導体装置の実装方法について図面を参照しながら説明する。   Hereinafter, a semiconductor device in a conventional substrate mounting on a wiring board and a method for mounting the semiconductor device will be described with reference to the drawings.

図5は従来の半導体装置を示す断面図である。   FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a conventional semiconductor device.

図5に示す従来の半導体装置は、ベアチップ実装に用いられるチップ状の半導体装置であり、その上面内に半導体集積回路が形成された半導体チップ1上に半導体チップの電極2が形成され、かつ電極2が形成された同一配線層に半導体チップ1の半導体集積回路と電気的に接続された内部配線3が形成されている。また、この半導体チップ1の表面は電極2の部分を開口した絶縁性の保護膜4で覆われている。そして、この半導体チップ2の保護膜4表面には半導体チップ1の電極2と外部接続用電極5の部分を開口した感光性の有機樹脂である第1の有機絶縁膜6が形成されている。この第1の有機絶縁膜6上には半導体チップ1の電極2と外部接続用電極5とを電気的に接続する配線パターン7が形成され、外部接続用電極5上にははんだバンプ8とUBM9(アンダー・バリア・メタル)が形成されている。さらに、外部接続用電極5の周辺部と第1の有機絶縁膜6と配線パターン7上には第2の有機絶縁膜14が形成されている。   The conventional semiconductor device shown in FIG. 5 is a chip-like semiconductor device used for bare chip mounting. A semiconductor chip electrode 2 is formed on a semiconductor chip 1 having a semiconductor integrated circuit formed on the upper surface thereof. The internal wiring 3 electrically connected to the semiconductor integrated circuit of the semiconductor chip 1 is formed in the same wiring layer in which 2 is formed. The surface of the semiconductor chip 1 is covered with an insulating protective film 4 having an opening in the electrode 2 portion. On the surface of the protective film 4 of the semiconductor chip 2, a first organic insulating film 6, which is a photosensitive organic resin having openings in the electrodes 2 and the external connection electrodes 5 of the semiconductor chip 1, is formed. A wiring pattern 7 for electrically connecting the electrode 2 of the semiconductor chip 1 and the external connection electrode 5 is formed on the first organic insulating film 6. The solder bump 8 and the UBM 9 are formed on the external connection electrode 5. (Under barrier metal) is formed. Further, a second organic insulating film 14 is formed on the periphery of the external connection electrode 5, the first organic insulating film 6 and the wiring pattern 7.

次に従来の半導体装置の実装方法について図6を参照しながら説明する。   Next, a conventional method for mounting a semiconductor device will be described with reference to FIG.

図5に示したような半導体装置をプリント配線基板上に実装する場合、まず図6(a)に示すように、電子機器に組み込むプリント配線基板10の接続用配線電極11と半導体チップ1に形成したはんだバンプ8とを位置合わせする。   When a semiconductor device as shown in FIG. 5 is mounted on a printed wiring board, first, as shown in FIG. 6A, it is formed on the connecting wiring electrode 11 and the semiconductor chip 1 of the printed wiring board 10 incorporated in the electronic device. The solder bumps 8 are aligned.

そして図6(b)に示すように、プリント配線基板10の接続用配線電極11と半導体チップ1のはんだバンプ8とを接続する。この際、はんだボール8を溶融させた状態でプリント配線基板10の接続用配線電極11とを接合する。   Then, as shown in FIG. 6B, the connection wiring electrodes 11 of the printed wiring board 10 and the solder bumps 8 of the semiconductor chip 1 are connected. At this time, the connection wiring electrode 11 of the printed wiring board 10 is joined in a state where the solder ball 8 is melted.

そして図6(c)に示すように、プリント配線基板10に半導体チップ1をはんだボール8が接続された状態で、半導体チップ1とプリント配線基板10との間隙に絶縁性樹脂等のアンダーフィル材12を充填封止し、アンダーフィル材12を硬化させて基板実装を完了する。   Then, as shown in FIG. 6C, an underfill material such as an insulating resin is provided in the gap between the semiconductor chip 1 and the printed wiring board 10 in a state where the solder balls 8 are connected to the printed wiring board 10. 12 is filled and sealed, and the underfill material 12 is cured to complete the substrate mounting.

以上のように従来においては、配線基板の配線電極とベアチップ実装に用いるチップ状の半導体装置とを突起電極を介して接続し、両者の間隙にアンダーフィル材を形成して実装するものであり、アンダーフィル材は両者の接続後または、接続前に予め供給して形成するものであった。近年、LSIの小型・高密度化に伴い外部接続用端子の多ピン化が進んでいる。このためLSIパッケージには、パッケージの裏面に半田ボールをエリア配置したBGA(Ball Grid Array)タイプが多用されるようになっている。   As described above, in the past, the wiring electrode of the wiring board and the chip-like semiconductor device used for bare chip mounting are connected via the protruding electrode, and the underfill material is formed in the gap between the two and mounted. The underfill material was formed by supplying in advance after the connection between the two or before the connection. In recent years, with the miniaturization and high density of LSI, the number of pins for external connection has been increased. Therefore, BGA (Ball Grid Array) type in which solder balls are arranged on the back surface of the package is often used for LSI packages.

また、半導体装置に適応した例として、特許文献1,2に示されるように、半導体チップの周辺部に形成された電極より再配線をして、半導体チップ全面にはんだバンプ等の突起電極を用いてプリント基板等と接続するための電極形成構造および電極形成方法が提案されている。

Further, as an example adapted to a semiconductor device, as shown in Patent Documents 1 and 2, rewiring is performed from an electrode formed on the periphery of a semiconductor chip, and a protruding electrode such as a solder bump is used on the entire surface of the semiconductor chip. An electrode forming structure and an electrode forming method for connecting to a printed board or the like have been proposed.

しかし、上述した構造の半導体装置においては下記に示すような課題があった。   However, the semiconductor device having the above-described structure has the following problems.

第1の課題は、半導体装置の回路素子が形成された面上に再配線パターンを形成する構造の半導体装置において、プリント回路基板に接続するためのはんだバンプ等の突起電極を形成するための再配線パターンの外部接続用電極を半導体チップの表面の保護膜に直接形成する際に、外部接続用電極の直下に半導体チップの配線パターンルールの再配線が存在すると、図7に示すように半導体チップ1の保護膜4上に形成された再配線の膜応力により半導体チップ1の保護膜4にクラックAが入り、半導体チップ1の最上層の配線3が断線してしまう課題が出てきた。   A first problem is that in a semiconductor device having a structure in which a rewiring pattern is formed on a surface on which circuit elements of the semiconductor device are formed, re-generation for forming protruding electrodes such as solder bumps for connection to a printed circuit board is performed. When the external connection electrode of the wiring pattern is formed directly on the protective film on the surface of the semiconductor chip, if there is a rewiring of the wiring pattern rule of the semiconductor chip directly under the external connection electrode, the semiconductor chip as shown in FIG. The problem is that the crack A enters the protective film 4 of the semiconductor chip 1 due to the film stress of the rewiring formed on the protective film 4, and the uppermost wiring 3 of the semiconductor chip 1 is disconnected.

第2の課題は、半導体チップの最上層に半導体チップの電極をエリア状に半導体チップ表面全面に配置した半導体装置において、半導体チップの電極の直下の配線層に配線が存在すると、電極上に外部接続用電極を形成する際に、外部接続用電極を形成する金属膜の膜応力により、半導体チップの電極の直下の配線層にダメージを与えてしまう課題があった。   A second problem is that, in a semiconductor device in which the semiconductor chip electrodes are arranged in an area on the entire surface of the semiconductor chip on the uppermost layer of the semiconductor chip, if wiring exists in the wiring layer immediately below the electrodes of the semiconductor chip, When the connection electrode is formed, there is a problem that the wiring layer immediately below the electrode of the semiconductor chip is damaged by the film stress of the metal film forming the external connection electrode.

第3の課題は、第2の課題を改善するために、現状半導体チップの配線層の形成時に半導体チップの電極を形成する配線層より下の配線層を上部配線層の応力によるダメージを無くすために平坦化プロセスを導入していたが、平坦化プロセスを導入することで、半導体チップのコストが上昇してしまう課題があった。   The third problem is to eliminate the damage caused by the stress of the upper wiring layer in the wiring layer below the wiring layer forming the electrode of the semiconductor chip when forming the wiring layer of the current semiconductor chip in order to improve the second problem. However, there has been a problem that the cost of the semiconductor chip increases due to the introduction of the planarization process.

したがって、この発明の目的は、上記問題点に鑑み、半導体チップの表面に形成された再配線パターンの外部接続用電極下の半導体チップ内の最上層の配線において、外部接続用電極の金属膜の膜応力により、最上層配線が断線してしまうことを防止する半導体装置を提供することである。   Therefore, in view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to form the metal film of the external connection electrode in the uppermost layer wiring in the semiconductor chip under the external connection electrode of the rewiring pattern formed on the surface of the semiconductor chip. It is an object of the present invention to provide a semiconductor device that prevents the uppermost layer wiring from being disconnected due to film stress.
