Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tape automated bonding (T)
AB) Tape with adhesive (hereinafter referred to as TA)
B) and a substrate for connecting a semiconductor integrated circuit and a semiconductor device using the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An ordinary TAB tape has a three-layer structure in which a flexible organic insulating film such as a polyimide film is laminated with a releasing polyester film or the like as an adhesive layer and a protective film layer. It is composed of

[0003] TAB tapes include (1) perforation of sprocket and device holes, (2) thermal lamination with copper foil,
It is processed into a TAB tape (pattern tape) through processing steps such as (3) pattern formation (resist coating, etching, resist removal) and (4) tin or gold-plating. FIG. 1 shows the shape of the pattern tape. . An adhesive 2 and a conductor pattern 5 are provided on the organic insulating film 1, a sprocket hole 3 for feeding the film, and a device hole 4 for installing a device. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the semiconductor device of the present invention. The inner lead portion 6 of the pattern tape is thermocompression-bonded (inner lead bonding) to the gold bump 10 of the semiconductor integrated circuit 8 having the protective film 11,
A semiconductor integrated circuit is mounted. Next, a semiconductor device is manufactured through a resin sealing step using a sealing resin 9. In addition, there is also adopted a method in which a conductor of a pattern tape and a gold bump of a semiconductor integrated circuit are connected by wire bonding without having an inner lead portion. Such a semiconductor device is called a tape carrier package (TCP) type semiconductor device. Finally, the TCP type semiconductor device is connected to a circuit board or the like on which other components are mounted via outer leads 7 (outer lead bonding), and is mounted on an electronic device.

On the other hand, as electronic devices have become smaller and lighter in recent years, a semiconductor package has a QFP (quad flat flat) in which conventional connection terminals (outer leads) are arranged on the side of the package for the purpose of high-density mounting. Package), S
Instead of an OP (Small Outline Package), a BGA (Ball Grid Array) in which connection terminals are arranged on the back surface of the package and a CSP (Chip Scale Package) have been used in part.
The BGA and CSP are structurally most different from QFP and SOP in that the former requires a substrate called an interposer, while the latter requires a metal lead frame to use a substrate. And not. As the interposer referred to here, one obtained by bonding a copper foil to an organic insulating film such as a glass epoxy substrate or polyimide is generally used. Therefore, the tape with an adhesive for TAB of the present invention can also be used for semiconductor devices such as BGA and CSP.
A and CSP are also included in the semiconductor device of the present invention. 3 and 4 are cross-sectional views of one embodiment of the semiconductor device (BGA, CSP) of the present invention. In the figure, 12 and 20 are organic insulating films, 13 and 21 are adhesives, 14 and 22 are conductor patterns,
15 and 23 are semiconductor integrated circuits, 16 and 24 are sealing resins,
17 and 25 are gold bumps, 18 and 26 are solder balls, 1
9 indicates a stiffener, and 27 indicates a solder resist.

[0005] In any of the above package forms, the adhesive layer of the TAB tape ultimately remains in the package, so that it is required to have insulation, heat resistance and adhesion. In recent years, as electronic devices have been miniaturized and densified, the conductor width in the TAB method has become extremely narrow, and the need for an adhesive having high adhesive strength and insulating properties has increased.

From such a viewpoint, a mixed composition of an epoxy resin and / or a phenol resin and a polyamide resin has been mainly used for the adhesive layer of the conventional TAB tape. (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2-143447,
No. -217035).

[0007]

However, it is difficult to balance the adhesiveness and the insulating property among the above-mentioned properties, and the conventional TAB tape improves either the adhesiveness or the insulating property. On the other hand, the other decreases, and it cannot be said that the overall characteristics are necessarily sufficient. As for the adhesiveness, as the conductor width becomes narrower, the adhesive strength is reduced, and the conductor may be peeled off in a post-process such as bonding, so that it may not be possible to connect to an integrated circuit or a circuit board. This is mainly due to a shortage of the absolute value of the adhesive strength and a decrease in the effective adhesive area due to the penetration of the plating solution between the conductor and the adhesive.

[0008] In general, it is possible to increase the breaking energy by lowering the elastic modulus of the adhesive, thereby improving the adhesive force.
There is a problem that the adhesive is softened under high humidity and the insulation property is reduced. On the other hand, when the degree of crosslinking of the adhesive is increased in order to improve the insulating property, the adhesive is liable to be brittlely fractured, and the internal stress is increased due to curing shrinkage, and the adhesive strength is reduced.

An object of the present invention is to solve such problems and to provide a novel TAB tape having excellent adhesiveness and a semiconductor device using the same.

[0010]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies on the relationship between the chemical structure of the adhesive component of the TAB tape and the adhesiveness to metal, and as a result, have found that TA with excellent adhesion and insulation properties by skillfully combining with polyamide resin
It has been found that a tape for B can be obtained, which has led to the present invention.

That is, the present invention comprises a laminate having an adhesive layer and a protective film layer on a flexible organic insulating film, wherein the adhesive layer comprises a polyamide resin and at least one kind of general resin. A TAB adhesive tape comprising a phenol derivative having a substituent represented by the formula (1) as an essential component, and a semiconductor device using the same.

[0012]

Embedded image General formula (1) (X represents a group or a bond containing at least one of sulfur and oxygen atoms. Y1 and Y2 each represent a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and Y1 and Y2 may be the same or different. Represents an integer satisfying 0 ≦ m ≦ 3, and n represents an integer satisfying 0 ≦ n ≦ 1.)

[0013]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. The phenol derivative used in the present invention comprises a binuclear compound as shown in the general formula (1), and the presence or absence of an intervening molecule for bonding mononuclear members is not particularly limited.
The structure having no intervening molecule is a biphenyl type, but when there is an intervening molecule, the structure of the intervening molecule is an ether structure, a sulfur dioxide structure, a methylene structure, an isopropyl structure, or the like. Specifically, biphenol, bishydroxyphenyl ether, 4,4'-sulfinyl diresorcinol, bis (3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) sulfone and 2,2'-methylenebis (4-methyl-6-t -Butylphenol) and the like.

In the general formula (1), Y1 and Y2 each have 1 carbon atom.
Is not particularly limited as long as it is a hydrocarbon group from to 5,
1, Y2 may be the same or different. Specifically, for example, compounds in which Y1 and Y2 are methyl groups include bis (3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) sulfone, and when Y1 is a methyl group and Y2 is a t-butylphenol group, 2, 2'-methylenebis (4
-Methyl-6-t-butylphenol), but is not limited thereto.

In general, a phenolic resin is a blend material having good compatibility with polyamide and suitable for imparting appropriate heat resistance and breaking strength to polyamide by thermosetting. Such heat resistance and breaking strength are ultimately important for the balance between insulation and adhesion. However, in the case of the conventional phenol resin, since the phenol nuclei are bonded to each other by a methylene bond, it is not always easy to obtain an appropriate crosslinking density after blending with the polyamide. As a result, it is difficult to achieve a balance between insulation and adhesiveness.

On the other hand, the binuclear phenol derivative used in the present invention can obtain an appropriate crosslinking density, and the molecules interposed between the binuclear bodies are not rigid structures.
It is considered that the adhesiveness was improved without impairing the insulating property because the resin was more flexible than the methylene bond of the phenol resin.

As the polyamide resin used in the present invention, various known resins can be used. In particular, a material containing a dicarboxylic acid having 36 carbon atoms (so-called dimer acid) as an essential component, which has flexibility in the adhesive layer and has excellent insulating properties due to a low water absorption, is preferable. Polyamide resin containing dimer acid is obtained by polycondensation of dimer acid and diamine according to a conventional method.In this case, adipic acid other than dimer acid, azelaic acid, dicarboxylic acid such as sebacic acid is contained as a copolymer component. Is also good. Diamines are ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, piperazine,
And so on. From the viewpoint of hygroscopicity and solubility, 2
A mixture of more than one species may be used.

The mixing ratio of the phenol derivative to the polyamide resin is usually 5 to 80 parts by weight, preferably 20 to 100 parts by weight of the polyamide resin.
４０40 parts by weight. If the amount of the phenol derivative is less than 5 parts by weight, the effect of improving the adhesiveness is not sufficient. On the other hand, if it exceeds 80 parts by weight, the insulating property is undesirably reduced.

In the present invention, by adding a known epoxy resin to the adhesive layer, the adhesiveness and insulation can be further improved. The epoxy resin is not particularly limited as long as it has two or more epoxy groups in one molecule, but diglycidyl ethers such as bisphenol F, bisphenol A, bisphenol S, dihydroxynaphthalene, epoxidized phenol novolak, and epoxidized cresol novolak. Epoxidized trisphenylolmethane, epoxidized tetraphenylolethane, epoxidized metaxylenediamine, and the like. The amount of the epoxy resin to be added is 5 to 100 parts by weight, preferably 20 to 70 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the polyamide resin.

Further, the adhesive layer may contain a known phenol resin such as a novolak type phenol resin or a resol type phenol resin, which is effective in improving insulation and heat resistance such as thermal deformation. The addition amount of the phenol resin is 5 to 100 parts by weight, preferably 20 to 70 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the polyamide resin.

The addition of the epoxy resin curing agent and the curing accelerator to the adhesive layer of the present invention is not limited at all.
For example, aromatic polyamines, boron trifluoride amine complexes such as boron trifluoride triethylamine complex, 2-alkyl-4-methylimidazole, 2-phenyl-4-amine
Known compounds such as imidazole derivatives such as alkylimidazole, organic acids such as phthalic anhydride and trimellitic anhydride, dicyandiamide and triphenylphosphine can be used. The addition amount is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the polyamide resin.

In addition to the above components, addition of organic or inorganic components such as an antioxidant and an ion scavenger as long as the properties of the adhesive are not impaired is not limited at all.

The flexible insulating film referred to in the present invention is a plastic such as polyimide, polyester, polyphenylene sulfide, polyether sulfone, polyether ether ketone, aramid, polycarbonate, polyarylate, or glass cloth impregnated with epoxy resin. Of the composite material having a thickness of 25 to 125 μm, and a plurality of films selected from these may be laminated and used. If necessary, a surface treatment such as hydrolysis, corona discharge, low-temperature plasma, physical surface roughening, and easy adhesion coating treatment can be performed.

The protective film layer referred to in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it can be peeled from the adhesive surface without damaging the form of the TAB tape before heat laminating the copper foil.
For example, a polyester film or a polyolefin film coated with a silicone or fluorine compound, and a paper obtained by laminating the same.

Next, a method of manufacturing a tape with an adhesive for TAB will be described.

A coating material obtained by dissolving the above adhesive composition in a solvent is applied to a flexible insulating film and dried. It is preferable to apply the adhesive layer so that the film thickness is 10 to 25 μm. Drying conditions are 100-200 ° C, 1-5
Minutes. The solvent is not particularly limited, but a mixture of an aromatic compound such as toluene, xylene, and chlorobenzene and an alcohol compound such as methanol, ethanol, and propanol is preferable. A protective film is laminated on the film thus obtained, and finally slit into a width of about 35 to 158 mm.

The substrate for semiconductor connection can be manufactured by using the tape with the adhesive for semiconductor device thus obtained. Furthermore, a semiconductor device can be manufactured using these semiconductor connection substrates.
