Description
The present invention relates to a semiconductor package and a method of packaging semiconductor devices, and more particularly, to a wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP) and a packaging method thereof.
BACKGROUND ART [0002] In recent years, portable electronic devices such as portable telephones have been rapidly developed, and fusion and compounding among electronic devices are rapidly progressing. For example, various functions such as camera function, MP3 play function, and DMB function are complex and high-performance in a mobile phone.
However, portable electronic devices are small and light and should be easy to carry. In other words, as the functions and the complexity are advanced, the size of the portable electronic device is inevitably enlarged. In order to solve this problem, miniaturization of parts can contribute the most.
A chip scale package (CSP) refers to a package whose size is within 1.2 times the size of the semiconductor chip.
A typical CSP manufacturing method involves singulation of a wafer, which has been completed through a semiconductor process, into individual semiconductor chips, and packages the wafer. A wafer level chip scale package (hereinafter referred to as WLCSP) is emerging in accordance with miniaturization of components and mass production trends.
The WLCSP is completed as a package by performing the packaging process in the wafer state to redistribute the circuit or perform flip-chip bumping to complete the package structure and then individualize the package structure. Therefore, the WLCSP is almost the same size as the semiconductor chip, and all the packaging processes are performed at the wafer level, which enables mass production, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.
In general, the WLCSP includes a semiconductor die having a die pad, a re-wiring layer electrically connected to the die pad, an under bump metal (UBM) electrically connected to the re-wiring layer and electrically connected to the solder bump, And the solder bump to be bonded. The re-wiring layer and the UBM may be formed on the basis of openings of the passivation layer for protecting the WLCSP.
In such a WLCSP manufacturing method, a four-step photomask process is basically required. For example, a first passivation layer is formed on the top surface of a semiconductor die having a die pad formed thereon, and the first passivation layer is patterned through a first photomask process to form a predetermined circuit pattern connected to the die pad. Thereafter, a re-wiring layer is formed on the circuit pattern by using a second photomask process. In addition, a second passivation layer is formed on the first passivation layer and the re-wiring layer, and then the second passivation layer is patterned using a third photomask process. Thereafter, the UBM is formed through a fourth photomask process.
In order to manufacture the WLCSP, the photomask process must be performed in several steps, which is not only burdensome in terms of manufacturing cost, but also may require a considerable manufacturing time.
The present invention provides a semiconductor package and a method of packaging the semiconductor device, the manufacturing cost and the production time being saved by minimizing the photomask processing step.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a semiconductor package comprising: a semiconductor die having a plurality of die pads formed on a surface thereof; A passivation layer formed on one surface of the semiconductor die and having openings for exposing at least a part of the die pad; A plurality of UBMs respectively contacting the at least a portion of the die pad through the opening and being formed to have a certain thickness in a direction perpendicular to the die pad from at least a portion of the die pad and exposed to the outside of the passivation layer; And a plurality of solder bumps respectively connected to the UBM.
A die passivation layer may further be formed on one surface of the semiconductor die except for the die pad.
Further, the die passivation layer may be formed in the same layer as the die pad.
The thickness of the UBM may be greater than the thickness of the passivation layer.
Also, the thickness of the UBM may be 9 to 13 탆.
Further, at least a part of the die pad and the opening may overlap each other.
The upper portion of the UBM exposed to the outside of the passivation layer may be wider than the opening.
A method of packaging a semiconductor device according to another embodiment of the present invention includes: preparing a semiconductor die having a plurality of die pads formed therein; Forming a passivation layer on the semiconductor die, each passivation layer having an opening exposing at least a portion of the die pad, respectively; Forming a plurality of UBMs each having a certain thickness in a direction perpendicular to the die pad from at least a portion of the die pad, each of the UBMs contacting at least a portion of the die pad through the opening; And forming a plurality of solder bumps respectively bonded to the UBM.
The semiconductor die may further include a die passivation layer on one side of the semiconductor die except for the die pad.
Further, the die passivation layer may be formed on the same layer as the die pad.
Further, the opening may be formed so that at least a part of the opening overlaps with the die pad.
In addition, the thickness of the UBM may be thicker than that of the passivation layer.
The UBM may have a thickness of 9 to 13 탆.
In addition, an upper portion of the UBM exposed to the outside of the passivation may be formed wider than the opening.
The opening of the passivation layer and the UBM may be formed using a photomask process.
According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a semiconductor package that minimizes the photomask processing steps and saves manufacturing cost and production time, and a method of packaging the semiconductor device.
