在現代的電子產品中經常發現半導體裝置。半導體裝置會有不同數量與密度的電氣組件。離散式半導體裝置通常含有某一種類型的電氣組件,舉例來說,發光二極體(Light Emitting Diode,LED)、小訊號電晶體、電阻器、電容器、電感器、以及功率金屬氧化物半導體場效電晶體(Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor,MOSFET)。積體式半導體裝置通常含有數百個至數百萬個電氣組件。積體式半導體裝置的範例包含微控制器、微處理器、電荷耦合裝置(Charged-Coupled Device,CCD)、太陽能電池、 以及數位微鏡裝置(Digital Micro-mirror Device,DMD)。 Semiconductor devices are often found in modern electronics. Semiconductor devices have different numbers and densities of electrical components. Discrete semiconductor devices usually contain certain types of electrical components, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs), small signal transistors, resistors, capacitors, inductors, and power metal oxide semiconductor field effects Transistor (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor, MOSFET). Integrated semiconductor devices typically contain hundreds to millions of electrical components. Examples of integrated semiconductor devices include microcontrollers, microprocessors, charge-coupled devices (CCDs), solar cells, And Digital Micro-mirror Device (DMD).
半導體裝置會實施各式各樣的功能,例如,訊號處理、高速計算、傳送與接收電磁訊號、控制電子裝置、將太陽光轉換成電能、以及產生電視顯示器的視覺投影。在娛樂領域、通訊領域、電力轉換領域、網路領域、電腦領域、以及消費性產品領域中皆會發現半導體裝置。在軍事應用、航空、自動車、工業控制器、以及辦公室設備中同樣會發現半導體裝置。 Semiconductor devices perform a variety of functions, such as signal processing, high-speed computing, transmitting and receiving electromagnetic signals, controlling electronic devices, converting sunlight into electrical energy, and generating visual projections of television displays. Semiconductor devices are found in the fields of entertainment, communications, power conversion, networking, computers, and consumer products. Semiconductor devices are also found in military applications, aviation, automotive, industrial controllers, and office equipment.
半導體裝置會利用半導體材料的電氣特性。半導體材料的結構使得可藉由施加電場或基極電流或是經由摻雜處理來操縱其導電性。摻雜會將雜質引入至半導體材料之中,以便操縱及控制半導體裝置的傳導性。 Semiconductor devices take advantage of the electrical properties of semiconductor materials. The structure of a semiconductor material makes it possible to manipulate its electrical conductivity by applying an electric or base current, or through a doping process. Doping introduces impurities into the semiconductor material in order to manipulate and control the conductivity of the semiconductor device.
半導體裝置含有主動式電氣結構與被動式電氣結構。主動式結構(其包含雙極電晶體與場效電晶體)會控制電流的流動。藉由改變摻雜程度以及施加電場或基極電流,電晶體便會提高或限制電流的流動。被動式結構(其包含電阻器、電容器、以及電感器)會創造用以實施各式各樣電氣功能所需要的電壓和電流之間的關係。該些被動式結構與主動式結構會被電氣連接以形成讓半導體裝置實施高速計算及其它實用功能的電路。 The semiconductor device includes an active electrical structure and a passive electrical structure. Active structures (which include bipolar transistors and field effect transistors) control the flow of current. By changing the degree of doping and applying an electric or base current, the transistor will increase or limit the flow of current. Passive structures (which include resistors, capacitors, and inductors) create the relationship between voltage and current needed to perform a variety of electrical functions. The passive structures and the active structures are electrically connected to form a circuit that allows the semiconductor device to perform high-speed computing and other practical functions.
半導體裝置通常會使用兩種複雜的製程來製造,也就是,前端製造以及後端製造,每一者皆可能涉及數百道步驟。前端製造涉及在一半導體晶圓的表面上形成複數個晶粒。每一個半導體晶粒通常相同並且含有藉由電氣連接主動式組件和被動式組件而形成的電路。後端製造涉及從已完成的晶圓中單體化裁切個別的半導體晶粒並且封裝該晶粒,用以提供結構性支撐以及環境隔離。本文中所使用的「半導體晶粒(semiconductor die)」 一詞兼具單數和複數形式,且據此會表示單一半導體裝置以及多個半導體裝置兩者。 Semiconductor devices are typically manufactured using two complex processes, that is, front-end manufacturing and back-end manufacturing, each of which may involve hundreds of steps. Front-end manufacturing involves forming a plurality of dies on the surface of a semiconductor wafer. Each semiconductor die is usually the same and contains circuits formed by electrically connecting active and passive components. Back-end manufacturing involves singulating individual semiconductor dies from the finished wafer and packaging the dies to provide structural support and environmental isolation. "Semiconductor die" as used in this article The term has both singular and plural forms, and accordingly it means both a single semiconductor device and multiple semiconductor devices.
半導體製造的其中一個目標便係生產較小型的半導體裝置。較小型裝置通常會消耗較少的電力,具有較高的效能,並且能夠被更有效地生產。此外,較小型的半導體裝置還具有較小的覆蓋區,這係較小型末端產品所需要的。藉由改良前端製程能夠達成較小的半導體晶粒尺寸,從而導致具有較小尺寸以及較高密度之主動式組件和被動式組件的半導體晶粒。後端製程可以藉由改良電氣互連及封裝材料而導致具有較小覆蓋區的半導體裝置封裝。 One of the goals of semiconductor manufacturing is to produce smaller semiconductor devices. Smaller devices typically consume less power, have higher efficiency, and can be produced more efficiently. In addition, smaller semiconductor devices also have smaller footprints, which are needed for smaller end products. By improving the front-end process, smaller semiconductor die sizes can be achieved, resulting in semiconductor die with smaller sizes and higher density for active and passive devices. Back-end processes can lead to semiconductor device packages with smaller footprints by improving electrical interconnects and packaging materials.
習知的半導體晶圓通常含有藉由一切割道而被分開的複數個半導體晶粒。主動式電路和被動式電路係被形成在每一個半導體晶粒的表面中。一互連結構會被形成在該半導體晶粒的表面上。該半導體晶圓會被單體化裁切成個別的半導體晶粒,以便使用在各式各樣的電子產品中。半導體製造的一項重要觀點係高產量以及對應的低成本。 Conventional semiconductor wafers usually contain a plurality of semiconductor dies that are separated by a scribe line. Active circuits and passive circuits are formed in the surface of each semiconductor die. An interconnect structure is formed on the surface of the semiconductor die. The semiconductor wafer is singulated and cut into individual semiconductor dies for use in a variety of electronic products. An important point in semiconductor manufacturing is high throughput and correspondingly low cost.
半導體晶圓會被製作成具有相依於被用來生產該些半導體晶圓和半導體晶粒之設備的各種直徑及半導體晶粒大小。半導體處理設備通常係根據每一種特殊半導體晶粒大小及進料半導體晶圓大小來開發。舉例來說,200毫米(mm)的晶圓係利用200mm設備來處理,而300mm的晶圓係利用300mm設備來處理。從一晶圓處被單體化裁切出來的半導體晶粒係在一載體上被處理。該載體的大小係根據要被處理器的半導體晶粒的大小來選擇。舉例來說,10mm乘10mm的半導體晶粒係利用和5mm乘5mm的半導體晶粒不同的設備來處理。所以,用於封裝半導體裝置的設備在處理 該設備被設計使用的特定半導體晶粒大小或半導體晶圓大小的能力方面會受到限制。當進料半導體晶粒大小及半導體晶圓大小改變時,則必須額外投資製造設備。投資用於特定大小的半導體晶粒或半導體晶圓的設備會產生半導體裝置製造商的資本投資風險。當進料半導體晶圓大小改變時,特定晶圓設備便會成為廢品。同樣地,被設計用於特定大小半導體晶粒的載體與設備也會成為廢品,因為該些載體在處理不同大小半導體晶粒的能力會受到限制。不斷地開發與施行不同的設備會增加最終半導體裝置的成本。 Semiconductor wafers are fabricated with various diameters and semiconductor die sizes depending on the equipment used to produce the semiconductor wafers and semiconductor dies. Semiconductor processing equipment is usually developed based on the size of each particular semiconductor die and the size of the incoming semiconductor wafer. For example, a 200 millimeter (mm) wafer series is processed using a 200mm device, and a 300mm wafer series is processed using a 300mm device. The semiconductor dies that are singulated from a wafer are processed on a carrier. The size of the carrier is selected based on the size of the semiconductor die to be processed. For example, a semiconductor die of 10 mm by 10 mm is processed using a device different from a semiconductor die of 5 mm by 5 mm. Therefore, equipment for packaging semiconductor devices is processing The device is designed to be limited in its ability to use a specific semiconductor die size or semiconductor wafer size. When the incoming semiconductor die size and semiconductor wafer size change, additional investment in manufacturing equipment is required. Investing in equipment for semiconductor wafers or semiconductor wafers of a particular size poses a capital investment risk for semiconductor device manufacturers. When the size of the incoming semiconductor wafer changes, certain wafer equipment becomes scrap. Similarly, carriers and equipment designed for semiconductor wafers of a certain size will also be scrapped, as the ability of these carriers to handle semiconductor wafers of different sizes will be limited. Continuous development and implementation of different equipment will increase the cost of the final semiconductor device.
半導體晶圓包含各種直徑並且通常以被設計用於每一種特定大小半導體晶粒的製造設備來處理。半導體晶粒通常被密封在半導體封裝裡面以達該晶粒之電氣互連、結構性支撐、以及環境保護的目的。倘若半導體晶粒的一部分曝露在外部元素中的話,尤其是當表面裝設該晶粒時,半導體便會遭到破壞或毀損。舉例來說,半導體晶粒在處理及曝光期間會被破壞或毀損。 Semiconductor wafers contain a variety of diameters and are typically processed in manufacturing equipment designed for each specific size semiconductor die. The semiconductor die is usually sealed inside the semiconductor package for the purposes of electrical interconnection, structural support, and environmental protection of the die.

半導體裝置通常會使用兩種複雜的製程來製造:前端製造和後端製造。前端製造涉及在一半導體晶圓的表面上形成複數個晶粒。該晶圓上的每一個晶粒皆含有主動式電氣組件和被動式電氣組件,它們會被電氣連接而形成功能性電路。主動式電氣組件(例如電晶體與二極體)能夠控制電流的流動。被動式電氣組件(例如電容器、電感器、以及電阻器)會創造用以實施電路功能所需要的電壓和電流之間的關係。 Semiconductor devices are typically manufactured using two complex processes: front-end manufacturing and back-end manufacturing. Front-end manufacturing involves forming a plurality of dies on the surface of a semiconductor wafer. Each die on the wafer contains active electrical components and passive electrical components, which are electrically connected to form a functional circuit. Active electrical components (such as transistors and diodes) can control the flow of current. Passive electrical components (such as capacitors, inductors, and resistors) create the relationship between voltage and current required to perform circuit functions.
被動式組件和主動式組件會藉由一連串的製程步驟被形成在該半導體晶圓的表面上方,該些製程步驟包含:摻雜、沉積、光微影術、蝕刻、以及平坦化。摻雜會藉由下面的技術將雜質引入至半導體材料之中,例如:離子植入或是熱擴散。摻雜製程會藉由響應於電場或基極電流來動態改變半導體材料傳導性而修正主動式裝置中半導體材料的導電性。電晶體含有不同類型及不同摻雜程度的多個區域,它們會在必要時被排列成用以在施加電場或基極電流下讓該電晶體提高或限制電流的流動。 Passive components and active components are formed over the surface of the semiconductor wafer through a series of process steps including doping, deposition, photolithography, etching, and planarization. Doping introduces impurities into semiconductor materials using techniques such as ion implantation or thermal diffusion. The doping process modifies the conductivity of semiconductor materials in active devices by dynamically changing the conductivity of semiconductor materials in response to an electric or base current. The transistor contains multiple regions of different types and different doping levels, which are arranged when necessary to allow the transistor to increase or limit the flow of current when an electric or base current is applied.
主動式組件和被動式組件係由具有不同電氣特性的多層材料構成。該些層能夠藉由各式各樣的沉積技術來形成,其部分取決於要被沉積的材料的類型。舉例來說,薄膜沉積可能包含:化學氣相沉積(Chemical Vapor Deposition,CVD)製程、物理氣相沉積(Physical Vapor Deposition,PVD)製程、電解質電鍍製程、以及無電極電鍍製程。每一層通常都會被圖樣化,以便形成主動式組件、被動式組件、或是組件之間的電氣連接線的一部分。 Active and passive components are composed of multiple layers of materials with different electrical characteristics. These layers can be formed by a variety of deposition techniques, depending in part on the type of material to be deposited. For example, the thin film deposition may include a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process, an electrolyte plating process, and an electrodeless plating process. Each layer is usually patterned to form an active component, a passive component, or part of the electrical connection between the components.
後端製造係指將已完成的晶圓切割或單體化裁切成個別的 晶粒,並且接著封裝該半導體晶粒,以達結構性支撐以及環境隔離的效果。為單體化裁切半導體晶粒,該晶圓會沿著該晶圓中被稱為切割道(saw street)或切割線(scribe)的非功能性區域被刻痕並且折斷。晶圓會利用雷射切割工具或鋸片來進行單體化裁切。經過單體化裁切之後,個別半導體晶粒便會被裝設至包含接針或接觸墊的封裝基板,以便和其它系統組件進行互連。被形成在該半導體晶粒上方的接觸墊接著會被連接至該封裝裡面的接觸墊。該些電氣連接線可利用焊料凸塊、短柱凸塊、導電膏、或是焊線來製成。一囊封體或是其它模製材料會被沉積在該封裝的上方,用以提供物理性支撐和電氣隔離。接著,已完成的封裝便會被插入一電氣系統之中並且讓其它系統組件可取用該半導體裝置的功能。 Back-end manufacturing refers to the cutting or singulation of completed wafers into individual Die, and then the semiconductor die is packaged to achieve the effects of structural support and environmental isolation. To singulate the semiconductor die, the wafer is scored and broken along a non-functional area called a saw street or scribe in the wafer. The wafer is singulated using laser cutting tools or saw blades. After singulation, individual semiconductor dies are mounted on a package substrate that includes pins or contact pads for interconnection with other system components. The contact pads formed over the semiconductor die are then connected to the contact pads inside the package. The electrical connecting wires can be made of solder bumps, stud bumps, conductive paste, or solder wires. An encapsulant or other molding material is deposited over the package to provide physical support and electrical isolation. The completed package is then inserted into an electrical system and allows other system components to access the functions of the semiconductor device.

That is, a portion 140 of the active surface 130 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 124 has no insulating layer 134. Alternatively, a portion of the insulating layer 134 is removed through an patterned photoresist layer by an etching process to expose the conductive layer 132 and a portion 140 of the active surface 130 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 124.
在圖3c中,一導電層142會在最終重新鈍化之後利用PVD、CVD、蒸發、電解質電鍍、無電極電鍍、或是其它合宜的金屬沉積製程被形成在導體層132與絕緣層134的裸露部分的上方。導體層142能夠為Al、Cu、Sn、Ni、Au、Ag、鎢(W)、或是其它合宜的導電材料。導體層142係一凸塊下層金屬(Under Bump Metallization,UBM),其被電氣連接至導體層132。UBM 142能夠係一具有黏著層、屏障層、以及晶種層或潤濕層的多金屬堆疊。黏著層係被形成在導體層132的上方並且能夠為鈦(Ti)、氮化鈦(TiN)、鎢化鈦(TiW)、Al、或是鉻(Cr)。屏障層係被形成在黏著層的上方並且能夠為Ni、NiV、鉑(Pt)、鈀(Pd)、TiW、Ti、或是銅化鉻(CrCu)。該屏障層會阻止Cu擴散至該晶粒的主動區之中。晶種層係被形成在屏障層的上方並且能夠為Cu、Ni、NiV、Au、或是Al。UBM 142為導體層132提供一低阻值互連線,並且提供一屏障阻止焊料擴散,以及提供用於焊料潤濕的晶種層。 In FIG. 3c, a conductive layer 142 is formed on the exposed portions of the conductive layer 132 and the insulating layer 134 by PVD, CVD, evaporation, electrolyte plating, electrodeless plating, or other suitable metal deposition processes after final re-passivation.

半導體晶圓120會進行電氣測試與檢查,作為品質控制過程的一部分。手動視覺檢查及自動光學系統會被用來在半導體晶圓120上實 施檢查。軟體會被使用在半導體晶圓120的自動光學分析中。視覺檢查方法可以運用諸如掃描電子顯微鏡、高強度光或紫外光、或是冶金顯微鏡的設備。半導體晶圓120的結構性特徵會被檢查,其包含:翹曲、厚度變異、表面微粒、不規則性、裂痕、脫層、以及變色。 The semiconductor wafer 120 is electrically tested and inspected as part of the quality control process. Manual visual inspection and automatic optical system will be used to implement the semiconductor wafer 120 Implement inspection. The software is used in the automatic optical analysis of the semiconductor wafer 120. The visual inspection method may use equipment such as a scanning electron microscope, high-intensity light or ultraviolet light, or a metallurgical microscope. Structural features of the semiconductor wafer 120 are inspected, including: warpage, thickness variation, surface particles, irregularities, cracks, delamination, and discoloration.
半導體晶粒124裡面的主動式組件和被動式組件會在晶圓級進行電氣效能與電路功能的測試。每一個半導體晶粒124係利用一探針或是其它測試裝置來測試功能與電氣參數。探針係被用來電氣接觸每一個半導體晶粒124上的節點或接觸墊132並且提供電氣刺激給該些接觸墊。半導體晶粒124會回應該些電氣刺激,該回應會被測量並且和預期的回應作比較,以便測試該半導體晶粒的功能。該些電氣測試可以包含電路功能、導線完整性、電阻係數、連續性、可靠度、接面深度、靜電放電(Electro-Static Disharge,ESD)、射頻(Radio Frequency,RF)效能、驅動電流、臨界電流、漏電流、以及該組件類型特有的操作參數。半導體晶圓120的檢查與電氣測試可讓通過測試而被指定為已知良品晶粒(Known Good Die,KGD)的半導體晶粒124使用於半導體封裝中。 Active components and passive components in the semiconductor die 124 are tested for electrical performance and circuit functions at the wafer level. Each semiconductor die 124 uses a probe or other testing device to test the functional and electrical parameters. The probe system is used to electrically contact a node or contact pad 132 on each semiconductor die 124 and provide electrical stimulus to the contact pads. The semiconductor die 124 will respond to some electrical stimulus, and the response will be measured and compared with the expected response to test the function of the semiconductor die. These electrical tests can include circuit function, lead integrity, resistivity, continuity, reliability, junction depth, Electro-Static Disharge (ESD), radio frequency (RF) performance, drive current, criticality Current, leakage current, and operating parameters specific to this component type. The inspection and electrical test of the semiconductor wafer 120 may allow the semiconductor die 124 designated as a Known Good Die (KGD) to pass through the test to be used in a semiconductor package.
在圖3d中,半導體晶圓120會利用鋸片或雷射削切工具144被單體化裁切貫穿切割道126成為個別的半導體晶粒124。個別的半導體晶粒124皆會被檢查與電氣測試,以便找出單體化裁切後的KGD。 In FIG. 3d, the semiconductor wafer 120 is singulated and cut through the scribe line 126 into individual semiconductor dies 124 using a saw blade or a laser cutting tool 144. Individual semiconductor dies 124 are inspected and electrically tested to find the KGD after singulation cutting.
圖4a至4e配合圖1以及2a至2c圖解沉積一囊封體在一WLCSP中的一半導體晶粒的主動表面的側邊與裸露部分上方的製程。圖4a所示的係一含有犧牲基礎材料(例如,矽、聚合物、氧化鈹、玻璃、或是用於達到結構性支撐之目的的其它合宜低成本剛性材料)的載體或暫時性基板 150的一部分的剖視圖。一介面層或雙面膠帶152會被形成在載體150的上方,當作暫時性膠黏焊膜、蝕刻阻止層、或是熱脫模層。 FIGS. 4 a to 4 e in conjunction with FIGS. 1 and 2 a to 2 c illustrate a process of depositing an encapsulation body on a side of an active surface of a semiconductor die in a WLCSP and over a bare portion. Figure 4a shows a carrier or temporary substrate containing a sacrificial base material (e.g., silicon, polymer, beryllium oxide, glass, or other suitable low-cost rigid material for structural support purposes). A sectional view of a portion of 150. An interface layer or a double-sided tape 152 is formed on the carrier 150 as a temporary adhesive solder film, an etch stop layer, or a thermal release layer.
載體150能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒124的圓形或矩形鑲板。載體150的表面積可以大於半導體晶圓120的表面積。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 150 can be a circular or rectangular panel that can accommodate a plurality of semiconductor dies 124. The surface area of the carrier 150 may be larger than the surface area of the semiconductor wafer 120. A larger carrier reduces the manufacturing cost of a semiconductor package because more semiconductor dies can be processed on the larger carrier, thereby reducing the cost per unit. Semiconductor packaging and processing equipment is designed and configured for the size of the wafer or carrier being processed.
為進一步降低製造成本,載體150的大小不相依於半導體晶粒124的大小或是半導體晶圓120的大小來選擇。也就是,載體150具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓120處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒124。於其中一實施例中,載體150為直徑330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體150為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒124可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體150上。或者,半導體晶粒124可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體150上。據此,標準化載體150能夠應付任何大小的半導體晶粒124,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,該半導體封裝設備能夠被用於處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。具有固定大小與形狀的載體150允許利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料來處理來自不同大小半導體晶圓120的不同大小半導體晶粒124。舉例來說,來自200mm半導體晶圓的10mm乘10mm半導體晶粒124或是來自450mm半導體晶圓的20mm 乘20mm半導體晶粒124能夠利用相同的設備與材料清單在載體150上被處理。該共同或標準化載體150藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降低製造成本。該標準化載體大小降低資本風險,因為即使半導體晶圓大小改變,處理設備仍然維持不變。藉由選擇預設的載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce the manufacturing cost, the size of the carrier 150 is selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 124 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 120. That is, the carrier 150 has a fixed or standardized size, which is capable of accommodating semiconductor chips 124 of various sizes cut out from one or more semiconductor wafers 120 singulated. In one embodiment, the carrier 150 has a circular shape with a diameter of 330 mm. In another embodiment, the carrier 150 is a rectangle with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm. The semiconductor die 124 may have an area of 10 mm by 10 mm, and they are placed on a standardized carrier 150. Alternatively, the semiconductor die 124 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 150. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 150 can cope with semiconductor dies 124 of any size, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of the die size or the size of the incoming wafer. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer. The semiconductor packaging equipment can be used to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The carrier 150 having a fixed size and shape allows different sets of semiconductor dies 124 from different sized semiconductor wafers 120 to be processed using a common set of processing tools, equipment, and materials. For example, a 10mm by 10mm semiconductor die 124 from a 200mm semiconductor wafer or a 20mm from a 450mm semiconductor wafer The 20mm semiconductor die 124 can be processed on the carrier 150 using the same equipment and bill of materials. The common or standardized carrier 150 reduces manufacturing costs by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or feed wafer size. This standardized carrier size reduces capital risk because the processing equipment remains the same even if the semiconductor wafer size changes. Flexible manufacturing lines can be implemented by selecting a preset carrier size for use with any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers.
圖3d中的半導體晶粒124被裝設至載體150與介面層152,舉例來說,利用拾放操作,絕緣層134則被定位朝向該載體。圖4b顯示多個半導體晶粒124被裝設至載體150的介面層152,成為重組式晶圓或重新配置晶圓153。半導體晶粒124的主動表面130藉由接觸該介面層的絕緣層134及/或導體層142的特性而被固持離開或偏離介面層152,也就是,在主動表面130的一部分140與介面層152之間有一間隙。 The semiconductor die 124 in FIG. 3d is mounted on the carrier 150 and the interface layer 152. For example, using a pick-and-place operation, the insulating layer 134 is positioned toward the carrier. FIG. 4 b shows that a plurality of semiconductor dies 124 are mounted on the interface layer 152 of the carrier 150 and become reassembled wafers or reconfigured wafers 153. The active surface 130 of the semiconductor die 124 is held away from or deviates from the interface layer 152 by contacting the characteristics of the insulating layer 134 and / or the conductor layer 142 of the interface layer, that is, a portion 140 of the active surface 130 and the interface layer 152 There is a gap between them.
重組式晶圓或重組式鑲板153能夠被處理成許多類型的半導體封裝,其包含扇入晶圓級晶片尺寸封裝(WLCSP)、重組式或嵌入式晶圓級晶片尺寸封裝(embedded Wafer Level Chip Scale Package,eWLCSP)、扇出WLCSP、覆晶封裝、三維(Three Dimensional,3D)封裝(例如,封裝上封裝(Package-on-Package,PoP))、或是其它半導體封裝。重組式鑲板153會根據所生成的半導體封裝的規格來配置。於其中一實施例中,多個半導體晶粒124以高密度排列方式被放置在載體150上,也就是,分隔300微米(μm)或更小,以便處理扇入裝置。於另一實施例中,半導體晶粒124在載體150上分開50μm的距離。載體150上的半導體晶粒124之間的距離會被最佳化,以便以最低的單元成本來製造半導體封裝。較大的載體150表面積會 容納較多的半導體晶粒124並且降低製造成本,因為每個重組式鑲板153中可處理較多的半導體晶粒124。被裝設至載體150的半導體晶粒124的數量能夠大於、小於、或是等於從半導體晶圓120處單體化裁切出來的半導體晶粒124的數量。載體150與重組式鑲板153提供利用來自不同大小半導體晶圓120的不同大小半導體晶粒124來製造許多不同類型半導體封裝的靈活性。 Reassembled wafers or reassembled panels 153 can be processed into many types of semiconductor packages, including fan-in wafer-level wafer-scale package (WLCSP), reassembled or embedded wafer-level wafer-scale package Scale Package (eWLCSP), fan-out WLCSP, flip-chip package, Three Dimensional (3D) package (for example, Package-on-Package (PoP)), or other semiconductor packages. The recombination panel 153 is configured according to the specifications of the generated semiconductor package. In one embodiment, the plurality of semiconductor dies 124 are placed on the carrier 150 in a high-density arrangement, that is, separated by 300 micrometers (μm) or less to process the fan-in device. In another embodiment, the semiconductor dies 124 are separated by a distance of 50 μm on the carrier 150. The distance between the semiconductor dies 124 on the carrier 150 is optimized to manufacture a semiconductor package with the lowest unit cost. Larger 150 surface area of the carrier will More semiconductor dies 124 are accommodated and manufacturing costs are reduced because more semiconductor dies 124 can be processed in each reassembled panel 153. The number of semiconductor dies 124 mounted on the carrier 150 can be greater than, less than, or equal to the number of semiconductor dies 124 cut from the semiconductor wafer 120 by singulation. The carrier 150 and the recombination panel 153 provide the flexibility to fabricate many different types of semiconductor packages using different sized semiconductor dies 124 from different sized semiconductor wafers 120.

The encapsulation body 154 can be a polymer synthetic material, for example, an epoxy resin with a filler, an epoxy acrylate with a filler, or a polymer with a suitable filler. The encapsulation body 154 is non-conducting and provides environmental protection for the semiconductor device, and is protected from external elements and pollutants. Specifically, the encapsulation body 154 is disposed in the sides of the semiconductor die 124 and in the gap between the active surface 130 and the interface layer 152, and thus covers the sides of the semiconductor die 124 and along the semiconductor die 124. The exposed portion 140 of the active surface 130 on the surface edge is up to the insulating layer 134. Accordingly, the encapsulation body 154 covers or contacts at least five surfaces of the semiconductor die 124, that is, four side surfaces of the semiconductor die and a portion 140 of the active surface 130.
在圖4d中,載體150和介面層152會藉由化學蝕刻、機械性剝除、化學機械性平坦化(Chemical Mechanical Planarization,CMP)、機械性研磨、熱烘烤、UV光、雷射掃描、或是濕式脫除被移除,以便露出絕緣層134以及導體層142。一部分的囊封體154會利用雷射156藉由LDA被移 除。或者,一部分的囊封體154會藉由蝕刻製程貫穿一已圖樣化光阻層而被移除。沿著半導體晶粒124的表面邊緣的主動表面130的一部分140以及該半導體晶粒的側邊仍被囊封體154覆蓋成為一保護性鑲板用以提高產量,尤其是當表面裝設該半導體晶粒時。囊封體154還保護半導體晶粒124,避免因曝露於光中而受損。半導體晶粒124會以下面一或更多道步驟來清洗絕緣層134與導體層142而準備進行電氣測試:電漿清洗、濕式溶劑清洗、銅氧化物清洗、或是乾式清洗。 In FIG. 4d, the carrier 150 and the interface layer 152 are subjected to chemical etching, mechanical peeling, chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), mechanical polishing, thermal baking, UV light, laser scanning, Alternatively, the wet removal is removed to expose the insulating layer 134 and the conductive layer 142. A part of the encapsulation body 154 will be moved by LDA using laser 156 except. Alternatively, a part of the encapsulation body 154 may be removed through an patterned photoresist layer by an etching process. A portion 140 of the active surface 130 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 124 and the sides of the semiconductor die are still covered by the encapsulant 154 to form a protective panel to increase yield, especially when the semiconductor is mounted on the surface Grains. The encapsulation body 154 also protects the semiconductor die 124 from being damaged by exposure to light. The semiconductor die 124 is cleaned by one or more of the following steps to prepare for the electrical test: plasma cleaning, wet solvent cleaning, copper oxide cleaning, or dry cleaning.

In one embodiment, the bump material is deposited using a drop template, that is, no mask is required. The bump material can be Al, Sn, Ni, Au, Ag, lead (Pb), Bi, Cu, solder, and combinations thereof, which may have an unnecessary flux solution. For example, the bump material can be a Sn / Pb eutectic alloy, a high-lead solder, or a lead-free solder.

In one embodiment, the bump material is re-soldered by heating the material above its melting point to form a sphere or bump 160. In some applications, the bump 160 is re-soldered in order to improve the electrical contact with the conductive layer 142.

The semiconductor die 124 is electrically connected to the bump 160 in order to achieve the purpose of external interconnection. The encapsulation body 154 covers the sides of the semiconductor die 124 and a portion 140 of the active surface 130 to protect the sides and surface edges of the semiconductor die and improve manufacturing yield, especially when the semiconductor die is mounted on the surface Time. The encapsulation body 154 also protects the semiconductor die 124 from being damaged by exposure to light. WLCSP 164 undergoes electrical testing before or after singulation cutting.

一部分的絕緣層186會利用雷射190藉由LDA被移除,用以露出導體層184以及沿著半導體晶粒174的表面邊緣的主動表面180的一部分192。也就是,沿著半導體晶粒174的表面邊緣的主動表面180的一部分192沒有絕緣層186。或者,一部分的絕緣層186會藉由蝕刻製程貫穿一已圖樣化光阻層而被移除,用以露出導體層182以及沿著半導體晶粒174的表面邊緣的主動表面180的一部分192。 A portion of the insulating layer 186 is removed by LDA using a laser 190 to expose the conductive layer 184 and a portion 192 of the active surface 180 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 174. That is, a portion 192 of the active surface 180 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 174 is free of the insulating layer 186. Alternatively, a portion of the insulating layer 186 is removed through an patterned photoresist layer by an etching process to expose the conductive layer 182 and a portion 192 of the active surface 180 along the surface edge of the semiconductor die 174.

圖7a至7e配合圖1以及2a至2c圖解沉積一囊封體在一WLCSP中的一半導體晶粒的主動表面的側邊與裸露部分上方的另一製程。圖7a所示的係一含有犧牲基礎材料(例如,矽、聚合物、氧化鈹、玻璃、或是用於達到結構性支撐之目的的其它合宜低成本剛性材料)的載體或暫時性基板200的一部分的剖視圖。一介面層或雙面膠帶202會被形成在載體200的上方,當作暫時性膠黏焊膜、蝕刻阻止層、或是熱脫模層。 7a to 7e and FIG. 1 and 2a to 2c illustrate another process of depositing an encapsulation body on the side of the active surface of a semiconductor die in a WLCSP and over the exposed portion. FIG. 7a shows a carrier or temporary substrate 200 containing a sacrificial base material (e.g., silicon, polymer, beryllium oxide, glass, or other suitable low-cost rigid material for structural support purposes). Partial sectional view. An interface layer or a double-sided tape 202 is formed on the carrier 200 as a temporary adhesive solder film, an etch stop layer, or a thermal release layer.
載體200能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒174的龐大圓形或矩形鑲板(大於300mm)。載體200的表面積可以大於半導體晶圓170的表面積。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 200 can be a large circular or rectangular panel (greater than 300 mm) that can accommodate a plurality of semiconductor dies 174. The surface area of the carrier 200 may be larger than the surface area of the semiconductor wafer 170. A larger carrier reduces the manufacturing cost of a semiconductor package because more semiconductor dies can be processed on the larger carrier, thereby reducing the cost per unit. Semiconductor packaging and processing equipment is designed and configured for the size of the wafer or carrier being processed.
為進一步降低製造成本,載體200的大小會不相依於半導體晶粒174的大小或是半導體晶圓170的大小來選擇。也就是,載體200具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓170處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒174。於其中一實施例中,載體200為直徑330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體200為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒174可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體200上。或者,半導體晶粒174可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體200上。據此,標準化載體200能夠應付任何 大小的半導體晶粒174,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料清單來處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。該共同或標準化載體200藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降低製造成本與資本風險。藉由選擇預設的載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce manufacturing costs, the size of the carrier 200 may be selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 174 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 170. That is, the carrier 200 has a fixed or standardized size, which can accommodate various sizes of semiconductor dies 174 cut out from one or more semiconductor wafers 170 singulated. In one embodiment, the carrier 200 has a circular shape with a diameter of 330 mm. In another embodiment, the carrier 200 is rectangular with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm. The semiconductor die 174 may have an area of 10 mm by 10 mm, and they are placed on a standardized carrier 200. Alternatively, the semiconductor die 174 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 200. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 200 can cope with any Size semiconductor die 174, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of die size or feed wafer size. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 200 reduces manufacturing costs and capital risks by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size. Flexible manufacturing lines can be implemented by selecting a preset carrier size for use with any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers.

For example, using a pick-and-place operation, the insulating layer 186 is positioned toward the carrier. FIG. 7 b shows that a plurality of semiconductor dies 174 are mounted on the interface layer 202 of the carrier 200 and become a reassembled wafer or a reconfigured wafer 203. The active surface 180 of the semiconductor die 174 is held away from or deviates from the interface layer 202 by contacting the characteristics of the insulating layer 186 of the interface layer, that is, there is a gap between a portion 192 of the active surface 180 and the interface layer 202.
重組式晶圓或重組式鑲板203能夠被處理成許多類型的半導體封裝,其包含扇入WLCSP、重組式或嵌入式WLCSP或是eWLCSP、扇出WLCSP、3D封裝(例如,PoP)、或是其它半導體封裝。重組式鑲板203會根據所生成的半導體封裝的規格來配置。於其中一實施例中,多個半導體晶粒174以高密度排列方式被放置在載體200上,也就是,分隔300μm或更小,以便處理扇入裝置。於另一實施例中,半導體晶粒174在載體200上分開50μm的距離。載體200上的半導體晶粒174之間的距離會被最佳化,以便以最低的單元成本來製造半導體封裝。較大的載體200表面積會 容納較多的半導體晶粒174並且降低製造成本,因為每個重組式鑲板203中可處理較多的半導體晶粒174。被裝設至載體200的半導體晶粒174的數量能夠大於、小於、或是等於從半導體晶圓170處單體化裁切出來的半導體晶粒174的數量。載體200與重組式鑲板203提供利用來自不同大小半導體晶圓170的不同大小半導體晶粒174來製造許多不同類型半導體封裝的靈活性。 The restructured wafer or restructured panel 203 can be processed into many types of semiconductor packages, including fan-in WLCSP, recombined or embedded WLCSP or eWLCSP, fan-out WLCSP, 3D package (for example, PoP), or Other semiconductor packages. The reorganized panel 203 is configured according to the specifications of the generated semiconductor package. In one embodiment, a plurality of semiconductor dies 174 are placed on the carrier 200 in a high-density arrangement, that is, separated by 300 μm or less in order to process a fan-in device. In another embodiment, the semiconductor dies 174 are separated by a distance of 50 μm on the carrier 200. The distance between the semiconductor dies 174 on the carrier 200 is optimized to manufacture a semiconductor package with the lowest unit cost. Larger surface area of 200 Accommodates more semiconductor dies 174 and reduces manufacturing costs because more semiconductor dies 174 can be processed in each reassembled panel 203. The number of the semiconductor dies 174 mounted on the carrier 200 can be greater than, less than, or equal to the number of the semiconductor dies 174 singulated from the semiconductor wafer 170. The carrier 200 and the recombination panel 203 provide the flexibility to manufacture many different types of semiconductor packages using different sized semiconductor dies 174 from different sized semiconductor wafers 170.

Specifically, the encapsulation body 204 is disposed in the sides of the semiconductor die 174 and in the gap between the active surface 180 and the interface layer 202, and thus covers the sides of the semiconductor die 174 and along the semiconductor die The exposed portion 192 of the active surface 180 of the surface edge is up to the insulating layer 186. Accordingly, the encapsulation body 204 may cover or contact at least five surfaces of the semiconductor die 174, that is, four side surfaces of the semiconductor die and a portion 192 of the active surface 180.

載體242能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒220與基板232單元的龐大圓形或矩形鑲板(大於300mm)。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 242 can be a large circular or rectangular panel (greater than 300 mm) capable of accommodating a plurality of semiconductor dies 220 and a substrate 232 unit. A larger carrier reduces the manufacturing cost of a semiconductor package because more semiconductor dies can be processed on the larger carrier, thereby reducing the cost per unit.

為進一步降低製造成本,載體242的大小會不相依於半導體晶粒220的大小來選擇。也就是,載體242具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒220。於其中一實施例中,載體242為直徑330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體242為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒220可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體242上。或者,半導體晶粒220可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體242上。據此,標準化載體242能夠應付任何大小的半導體晶粒220,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料清單來處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。該共同或標準化載體242藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降 低製造成本與資本風險。藉由選擇預設的載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce the manufacturing cost, the size of the carrier 242 is selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 220. That is, the carrier 242 has a fixed or standardized size, and it can accommodate semiconductor wafers 220 of various sizes that are singulated from one or more semiconductor wafers. In one embodiment, the carrier 242 has a circular shape with a diameter of 330 mm. In another embodiment, the carrier 242 is a rectangle with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm.

Alternatively, the semiconductor die 220 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 242. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 242 can cope with semiconductor dies 220 of any size, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of the die size or the size of the incoming wafer. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 242 is reduced by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size Low manufacturing costs and capital risks.

Alternatively, the semiconductor die 294 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm and be placed on the same standardized carrier 330. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 330 can cope with semiconductor dies 294 and 304 of any size, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of the die size or the size of the incoming wafer. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 330 reduces manufacturing costs and capital risks by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size. Flexible manufacturing lines can be implemented by selecting a preset carrier size for use with any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers.

Alternatively, the 8 mm by 8 mm semiconductor dies are derived from another semiconductor wafer having a different diameter. A first semiconductor die 294 or 304 is mounted on the carrier 330 and positioned in a position on the carrier 330 determined by the programmed automatic pick and place device. A second semiconductor die 294 or 304 will be automatically Pick-and-place equipment is selected and placed on the carrier 330, positioned in the first column on the carrier 330. The distance D or D1 between adjacent semiconductor dies 294 or 304 is programmed into the automatic pick and place device and selected based on the design and specifications of the semiconductor package to be processed. In one embodiment, the gap or distance D or D1 between adjacent semiconductor dies 294 or 304 is 100 μm. This pick-and-place operation is repeated until a row of about 69 semiconductor dies 294 or 304 is set within the width W1 of the carrier 330.
另一半導體晶粒294或304會被該自動拾放設備選擇,並且被放置在載體330上以及被定位在載體330上相鄰於該第一列的第二列之中。於其中一實施例中,第一列半導體晶粒294或304與第二列半導體晶粒294或304之間的距離D或D1為100μm。該拾放操作會重複進行,直到約74列的半導體晶粒294或304被設置在載體330的長度L1之中為止。該標準化載體(具有560mm的寬度W1以及600mm的長度L1的載體330)容納約69行以及74列的8mm乘8mm半導體晶粒294與304,總數量約5,000個半導體晶粒294或304被設置在載體330上。該拾放操作會重複進行,直到載體330部分或完全被半導體晶粒294或304佔據為止。所以,重組式鑲板338可以包含從任何大小半導體晶圓處單體化裁切出來的半導體晶粒294與304。載體330的大小不相依於半導體晶粒294與304的大小並且不相依於半導體晶圓290與300的大小。重組式鑲板338能夠如同被用來處理重組式鑲板336般地利用相同的載體330及相同的後端處理設備來處理。針對具有從不同大小進料晶圓處單體化裁切出來之相同大小半導體晶粒的重組式晶圓或鑲板來說,標準化載體330允許相同的材料被用於每一個重組式晶圓或鑲板。所以,用於載體330上的一重組式鑲板336或338的材料清單會維 持不變。一致性且可預測的材料清單提供改善的半導體封裝成本分析與規劃。 Another semiconductor die 294 or 304 is selected by the automatic pick-and-place device, and is placed on the carrier 330 and positioned in the second column adjacent to the first column on the carrier 330. In one embodiment, the distance D or D1 between the first row of semiconductor dies 294 or 304 and the second row of semiconductor dies 294 or 304 is 100 μm. This pick-and-place operation is repeated until about 74 rows of semiconductor dies 294 or 304 are set within the length L1 of the carrier 330. This standardized carrier (carrier 330 with a width W1 of 560mm and a length L1 of 600mm) accommodates approximately 69 rows and 74 columns of 8mm by 8mm semiconductor dies 294 and 304, and a total number of approximately 5,000 semiconductor dies 294 or 304 are provided Carrier 330. This pick and place operation is repeated until the carrier 330 is partially or completely occupied by the semiconductor die 294 or 304. Therefore, the recombination panel 338 may include semiconductor dies 294 and 304 that are singulated and cut from semiconductor wafers of any size. The size of the carrier 330 does not depend on the sizes of the semiconductor dies 294 and 304 and does not depend on the sizes of the semiconductor wafers 290 and 300. The recombination panel 338 can be processed using the same carrier 330 and the same back-end processing equipment as it is used to process the recombination panel 336. For reconstituted wafers or panels with semiconductor wafers of the same size singulated from feed wafers of different sizes, the standardized carrier 330 allows the same material to be used for each reconstituted wafer or panel. Therefore, the bill of materials for a reassembled panel 336 or 338 on the carrier 330 maintains Remain unchanged. A consistent and predictable bill of materials provides improved semiconductor package cost analysis and planning.
於另一實施例中,一重組式鑲板338含有被設置在載體330上的各式各樣半導體晶粒大小。舉例來說,10mm乘10mm的半導體晶粒294被裝設至載體330並且5mm乘5mm的半導體晶粒304被裝設至載體330,以便形成重組式鑲板338。該重組式鑲板在相同的重組式鑲板上含有多種大小的半導體晶粒。換言之,一部分的重組式鑲板338含有其中一種大小的半導體晶粒,而該重組式鑲板的另一部分則含有另一種大小的半導體晶粒。在載體330上同時含有不同大小之半導體晶粒294與304的重組式鑲板338會如同被用來處理具有被設置在載體330上方之均勻大小半導體晶粒的另一重組式鑲板336般地利用相同的後端處理設備來處理。 In another embodiment, a recombination panel 338 contains various semiconductor die sizes disposed on the carrier 330. For example, a semiconductor die 294 of 10 mm by 10 mm is mounted to the carrier 330 and a semiconductor die 304 of 5 mm by 5 mm is mounted to the carrier 330 to form a recombination panel 338. The recombination panel contains semiconductor grains of various sizes on the same recombination panel. In other words, a part of the recombination panel 338 contains semiconductor grains of one size, and another part of the recombination panel contains semiconductor grains of another size. The recombination panel 338 containing semiconductor dies 294 and 304 of different sizes at the same time on the carrier 330 will be treated as another recombination panel 336 having uniformly sized semiconductor dies disposed above the carrier 330. Use the same back-end processing equipment for processing.

The size of the carrier 330 does not change with the size of the semiconductor die being processed. The standardized carrier (carrier 330) has a fixed size and is capable of accommodating semiconductor dies of various sizes. The size of the standardized carrier 330 does not depend on the dimensions of the semiconductor die or semiconductor wafer. Compared with larger semiconductor dies, there are more small semiconductor dies that can fit on the carrier 330. The number of semiconductor dies 294 or 304 fitted on the carrier 330 will vary with the size of the semiconductor dies 294 or 304 and the interval or distance D between the semiconductor dies 294 or 304. For example, the number of semiconductor dies 304 containing 5 mm by 5 mm above the surface area of the carrier 330 is greater than the number of semiconductor dies 294 containing 10 mm by 10 mm above the surface area of the carrier 330. For example, the carrier 330 has about 3,000 10mm by 10mm semiconductor dies or about 12,000 5mm Multiply the semiconductor die by 5mm. The size and shape of the carrier 330 remains fixed and does not depend on the size of the semiconductor die 294 or 304 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 290 or 300 used to individually cut the semiconductor die 294 or 304. Carrier 330 provides the flexibility to manufacture reassembled panels 336 or 338 into a number of different types of semiconductor packages using a common set of processing equipment, the different types of semiconductor packages having different size semiconductor wafers from different size semiconductor wafers 290 and 300 Grains 294 and 304.

處理設備340係由控制系統342所控制。控制系統342能夠為一軟體程式或演算法,其被用來根據載體330上的半導體晶粒的大小與形狀來配置處理設備340。控制系統342會被程式化與客製化,以便讓處理設備340應付被形成在標準化載體330上的每一個不同的重組式晶圓或鑲板,例如,重組式鑲板336與338。 The processing device 340 is controlled by a control system 342. The control system 342 can be a software program or algorithm that is used to configure the processing device 340 according to the size and shape of the semiconductor die on the carrier 330. The control system 342 is programmed and customized to allow the processing equipment 340 to cope with each different reconstituted wafer or panel formed on the standardized carrier 330, such as the reconstituted panels 336 and 338.
藉由標準化載體330的維度,處理設備340能夠維持不變,因為載體330的維度不會隨著半導體晶粒大小與半導體晶圓大小的變動而改變。控制系統342針對載體330上的每一個重組式鑲板使用各種演算法。舉例來說,控制系統342能夠被用來最佳化半導體晶粒294在載體330上之 初始拾放操作期間的間隔。重組式鑲板336的規格會被輸入至控制系統342之中。控制系統342被程式化用以控制處理設備340,以便拾取多個獨特的半導體晶粒294並且將半導體晶粒294放置在載體330上分隔距離D,用以形成重組式鑲板336。舉例來說,重組式鑲板336包含10mm乘10mm的半導體晶粒294以及載體330的標準面積,寬度W1與長度L1。處理設備340被控制系統342配置成用以在重組式鑲板336上實施後端製程,該重組式鑲板336係在載體330上。控制系統342指導處理設備340根據半導體晶粒294的10mm乘10mm大小以及標準大小的載體330來實施沉積以及其它製造步驟。 By standardizing the dimensions of the carrier 330, the processing equipment 340 can remain unchanged because the dimensions of the carrier 330 will not change as the semiconductor die size and semiconductor wafer size change. The control system 342 uses various algorithms for each recombined panel on the carrier 330. For example, the control system 342 can be used to optimize the semiconductor die 294 on the carrier 330. Interval during the initial pick and place operation. The specifications of the reassembled panel 336 are input into the control system 342. The control system 342 is programmed to control the processing equipment 340 to pick up a plurality of unique semiconductor dies 294 and place the semiconductor dies 294 on the carrier 330 separated by a distance D to form a recombination panel 336. For example, the recombination panel 336 includes a semiconductor die 294 of 10 mm by 10 mm and a standard area of the carrier 330, a width W1 and a length L1. The processing device 340 is configured by the control system 342 to perform a back-end process on a reassembled panel 336 that is attached to a carrier 330. The control system 342 instructs the processing device 340 to perform the deposition and other manufacturing steps based on the 10 mm by 10 mm size of the semiconductor die 294 and a standard size carrier 330.
控制系統342允許處理設備340針對標準化載體330上的每一個重組式晶圓或鑲板被客製化。處理設備340不需要針對不同大小的半導體晶粒而被重建。在處理重組式鑲板336之後,處理設備340便準備處理載體330上的另一個重組式鑲板,其具有相同或不同的半導體晶粒大小與間隔。重組式鑲板338的規格會被輸入至控制系統342之中。控制系統342被程式化用以控制處理設備340,以便拾取多個獨特的半導體晶粒304並且將半導體晶粒304放置在載體330上分隔距離D,用以形成重組式鑲板338。舉例來說,重組式鑲板338包含5mm乘5mm的半導體晶粒304以及載體330的標準面積,寬度W1與長度L1。處理設備340被控制系統342配置成用以在重組式鑲板338上實施後端製程,該重組式鑲板338係在載體330上。控制系統342指導處理設備340根據半導體晶粒304的5mm乘5mm大小以及標準大小的載體330來實施沉積以及其它製造步驟。 The control system 342 allows the processing equipment 340 to be customized for each reconstituted wafer or panel on the standardized carrier 330. The processing device 340 does not need to be reconstructed for semiconductor dies of different sizes. After processing the recombination panel 336, the processing device 340 is ready to process another recombination panel on the carrier 330, which has the same or different semiconductor die size and spacing. The specifications of the reassembled panel 338 are input into the control system 342. The control system 342 is programmed to control the processing equipment 340 to pick up a plurality of unique semiconductor dies 304 and place the semiconductor dies 304 on the carrier 330 separated by a distance D to form a recombination panel 338.

Accordingly, the costs associated with changes in the size of the semiconductor die, changes in the size of the semiconductor wafer, and changes in the type of the semiconductor package will decrease. The investment risk of the processing device 340 will be reduced because when the carrier 330 is standardized, the design of the processing device 340 will be simplified.

A plurality of semiconductor dies 294 are mounted to the interface layer 432 of the carrier 430 to form a reassembled or reconfigured wafer or panel 436.
載體430能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒294的圓形或矩形鑲板(大於300mm)。載體430的表面積可以大於半導體晶圓290或300的表面積。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 430 can be a circular or rectangular panel (greater than 300 mm) that can accommodate a plurality of semiconductor dies 294. The surface area of the carrier 430 may be larger than the surface area of the semiconductor wafer 290 or 300.

Semiconductor packaging and processing equipment is designed and configured for the size of the wafer or carrier being processed.
為進一步降低製造成本,載體430的大小會不相依於半導體晶粒294的大小或半導體晶圓290與300的大小來選擇。也就是,載體430具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓290與300處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒294。於其中一實施例中,載體430為直徑330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體430為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒294可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體430上。或者,半導體晶粒294可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體430上。據此,標準化載體430能夠應付任何大小的半導體晶粒294,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料清單來處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。該共同或標準化載體430藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降低製造成本與資本風險。藉由選擇預設的 載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce manufacturing costs, the size of the carrier 430 is selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 294 or the sizes of the semiconductor wafers 290 and 300. That is, the carrier 430 has a fixed or standardized size, which can accommodate semiconductor dies 294 of various sizes cut out from one or more semiconductor wafers 290 and 300 by singulation. In one embodiment, the carrier 430 is a circle having a diameter of 330 mm. In another embodiment, the carrier 430 is a rectangle with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm. The semiconductor die 294 may have an area of 10 mm by 10 mm, and they are placed on a standardized carrier 430. Alternatively, the semiconductor die 294 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 430. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 430 can cope with semiconductor dies 294 of any size, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of die size or incoming wafer size. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 430 reduces manufacturing costs and capital risks by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size. By choosing the default The carrier size is used for any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers to enable flexible manufacturing lines.

The number of semiconductor dies 294 mounted on the carrier 430 can be greater than, less than, or equal to the number of semiconductor dies 294 singulated from the semiconductor wafer 290. The larger surface area of the carrier 430 will accommodate more semiconductor dies 294 and reduce manufacturing costs because more semiconductor dies 294 will be processed in each recombination panel 436.
該標準化載體(載體430)的大小固定並且能夠容納多種大小 的半導體晶粒。標準化載體430的大小不相依於半導體晶粒或半導體晶圓的維度。相較於較大的半導體晶粒,有更多小型半導體晶粒能夠適配在載體430上。舉例來說,載體430在載體430的表面積上方容納5mm乘5mm的晶粒的數量大於在載體430的表面積上方容納10mm乘10mm的晶粒的數量。 The standardized carrier (carrier 430) is fixed in size and can accommodate multiple sizes Semiconductor die. The size of the standardized carrier 430 does not depend on the dimensions of the semiconductor die or semiconductor wafer. Compared with larger semiconductor dies, there are more small semiconductor dies that can fit on the carrier 430.

在圖26b中,半導體晶圓500會利用鋸片或雷射削切工具520被單體化裁切貫穿切割道506成為個別的半導體晶粒504。半導體晶圓500沿著切割道區域506裡面的一部分基礎基板材料502以沿著基礎基板側表面522的一薄削切區來單體化裁切,以便讓一部分基礎基板材料502仍保 持被設置在半導體晶粒504的側壁516上。該薄削切區的大小略大於半導體晶粒504介於半導體側壁516以及基礎基板側表面522之間的距離D3。在半導體晶粒504的側壁516上方的基礎基板材料502會在重組以及後面的單體化裁切過程期間因減少介電材料破裂而增強該裝置。於其中一實施例中,介於側壁516以及基礎基板側表面522之間的距離D3為至少10μm。於另一實施例中,介於側壁516以及基礎基板側表面522之間的距離D3的範圍為14μm至36μm。個別的半導體晶粒504皆會被檢查與電氣測試,以便找出單體化裁切後的KGD。 In FIG. 26b, the semiconductor wafer 500 is singulated using a saw blade or a laser cutting tool 520 and cut through the scribe line 506 to form individual semiconductor dies 504. The semiconductor wafer 500 is individually cut along a portion of the base substrate material 502 in the scribe line region 506 along a thin cutting area along the side surface 522 of the base substrate, so that a portion of the base substrate material 502 remains intact. The holder is disposed on the sidewall 516 of the semiconductor die 504. The size of the thin-cut region is slightly larger than the distance D3 between the semiconductor die 504 between the semiconductor sidewall 516 and the side surface 522 of the base substrate. The base substrate material 502 above the sidewalls 516 of the semiconductor die 504 will enhance the device during recombination and subsequent singularization cutting processes by reducing cracking of the dielectric material. In one embodiment, the distance D3 between the sidewall 516 and the side surface 522 of the base substrate is at least 10 μm. In another embodiment, the distance D3 between the side wall 516 and the side surface 522 of the base substrate ranges from 14 μm to 36 μm. Individual semiconductor dies 504 are inspected and electrically tested to find the KGD after singulation cutting.
圖26C所示的係一含有犧牲基礎材料(例如,矽、聚合物、氧化鈹、玻璃、或是用於達到結構性支撐之目的的其它合宜低成本剛性材料)的載體或暫時性基板530的一部分的剖視圖。一介面層或雙面膠帶532會被形成在載體530的上方,當作暫時性膠黏焊膜、蝕刻阻止層、或是熱脫模層。 The system shown in FIG. 26C is a carrier or temporary substrate 530 containing a sacrificial base material (for example, silicon, polymer, beryllium oxide, glass, or other suitable low-cost rigid materials for structural support purposes). Partial sectional view. An interface layer or a double-sided adhesive tape 532 is formed on the carrier 530 and serves as a temporary adhesive solder film, an etch stop layer, or a thermal release layer.
載體530能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒504的圓形或矩形鑲板(大於300mm)。載體530的表面積可以大於半導體晶圓500的表面積。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 530 can be a circular or rectangular panel (greater than 300 mm) that can accommodate a plurality of semiconductor dies 504. The surface area of the carrier 530 may be larger than the surface area of the semiconductor wafer 500. A larger carrier reduces the manufacturing cost of a semiconductor package because more semiconductor dies can be processed on the larger carrier, thereby reducing the cost per unit. Semiconductor packaging and processing equipment is designed and configured for the size of the wafer or carrier being processed.
為進一步降低製造成本,載體530的大小會不相依於半導體晶粒504的大小或半導體晶圓500的大小來選擇。也就是,載體530具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓500處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒504。於其中一實施例中,載體530為直徑 330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體530為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒504可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體530上。或者,半導體晶粒504可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體530上。據此,標準化載體530能夠應付任何大小的半導體晶粒504,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料清單來處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。該共同或標準化載體530藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降低製造成本與資本風險。藉由選擇預設的載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce manufacturing costs, the size of the carrier 530 may be selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 504 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 500. That is, the carrier 530 has a fixed or standardized size, which can accommodate semiconductor chips 504 of various sizes cut out from one or more semiconductor wafers 500 singulated. In one embodiment, the carrier 530 has a diameter 330mm round. In another embodiment, the carrier 530 is a rectangle with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm. The semiconductor die 504 may have an area of 10 mm by 10 mm, and they are placed on a standardized carrier 530. Alternatively, the semiconductor die 504 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 530. According to this, the standardized carrier 530 can cope with semiconductor dies of any size 504, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of the die size or the size of the incoming wafer. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 530 reduces manufacturing costs and capital risks by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size. Flexible manufacturing lines can be implemented by selecting a preset carrier size for use with any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers.

The carrier 530 has a standardized shape and size, and can accommodate semiconductor chips of various sizes and quantities cut out from semiconductor wafers of various sizes.

The number of the semiconductor dies 504 mounted on the carrier 530 can be greater than, less than, or equal to the number of the semiconductor dies 504 singulated from the semiconductor wafer 500. The larger surface area of the carrier 530 will accommodate more semiconductor dies 504 and reduce manufacturing costs, as more semiconductor dies 504 will be processed in each reassembled panel 536.
該標準化載體(載體530)的大小固定並且能夠容納多種大小的半導體晶粒。標準化載體530的大小不相依於半導體晶粒或半導體晶圓的維度。相較於較大的半導體晶粒,有更多小型半導體晶粒能夠適配在載體530上。舉例來說,載體530在載體530的表面積上方容納5mm乘5mm的晶粒的數量大於在載體530的表面積上方容納10mm乘10mm的晶粒的數 量。 The standardized carrier (carrier 530) has a fixed size and is capable of accommodating semiconductor dies of various sizes. The size of the standardized carrier 530 does not depend on the dimensions of the semiconductor die or semiconductor wafer. Compared with larger semiconductor dies, there are more small semiconductor dies that can fit on the carrier 530. For example, the number of crystal grains of 5 mm by 5 mm above the surface area of the carrier 530 is greater than the number of crystal grains of 10 mm by 10 mm above the surface area of the carrier 530 the amount.

The number of semiconductor dies 504 singulated from the semiconductor wafer 500 is about 600 semiconductor dies, and the diameter of the semiconductor wafer 500 is 300 mm. The number of semiconductor die 504 that can fit 10 mm by 10 mm on the carrier 530 exceeds 3,000 semiconductor die. Alternatively, a plurality of semiconductor crystal grains 504 having an area of 5 mm by 5 mm are placed above the carrier 530, and a distance D4 between adjacent semiconductor crystal grains 504 is 200 μm.

The number of 5 mm by 5 mm semiconductor dies 504 that can fit on the carrier 530 exceeds 12,000 semiconductor dies.
載體530的大小不會隨著正在被處理的半導體晶粒的大小改變。適配在載體530上的半導體晶粒504的數量隨著半導體晶粒504的大小以及半導體晶粒504之間的間隔或距離D4而改變。載體530的大小與形狀保持固定並且不相依於半導體晶粒504的大小或是用以單體化裁切出半導體晶粒504的半導體晶圓500的大小。載體530與重組式鑲板536提供利用一組共同處理設備(例如,圖13h中的處理設備340)來製造許多不同類型半導體封裝的靈活性,該些不同類型的半導體封裝具有來自不同大小半導體晶圓500的不同大小半導體晶粒504。 The size of the carrier 530 does not change with the size of the semiconductor die being processed. The number of semiconductor dies 504 fitted on the carrier 530 varies with the size of the semiconductor dies 504 and the interval or distance D4 between the semiconductor dies 504. The size and shape of the carrier 530 remain fixed and do not depend on the size of the semiconductor die 504 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 500 used to singulate the semiconductor die 504.

The bump material is soldered to the conductor layer 560 using a suitable attachment or soldering process. In one embodiment, the bump material is re-soldered by heating the material above its melting point to form a sphere or bump 564. In some applications, the bumps 564 are re-soldered to improve the electrical contact with the conductive layer 560. The bump 564 can also be compression welded or thermally compressed to the conductor layer 560. The bump 564 represents one of the types of interconnect structures that can be formed over the conductor layer 560. The interconnection structure can also use bonding wires, conductor paste, stub bumps, micro-bumps, or other electrical interconnection lines.

絕緣層562、導體層560、以及凸塊564一起構成被形成在半導體晶粒504上方及半導體晶粒504的一覆蓋區裡面的囊封體550上方的增進互連結構566。相鄰於半導體晶粒504的半導體晶粒504的一周邊區域不會有互連結構566,俾使得囊封體550的表面554仍保持從互連結構566處露出。增進互連結構566可以僅包含一RDL或導體層(例如,導體層560)以及一絕緣層(例如,絕緣層562)。額外的絕緣層和RDL會在形成凸塊564 之前被形成在絕緣層562的上方,以便根據半導體晶粒504的設計和功能在該封裝中提供額外的垂直與水平電氣連接。 The insulating layer 562, the conductor layer 560, and the bumps 564 together form an enhanced interconnect structure 566 formed over the encapsulation body 550 formed over the semiconductor die 504 and in a footprint of the semiconductor die 504. A peripheral region of the semiconductor die 504 adjacent to the semiconductor die 504 does not have the interconnect structure 566, so that the surface 554 of the encapsulation body 550 remains exposed from the interconnect structure 566. The enhanced interconnect structure 566 may include only an RDL or conductor layer (eg, the conductor layer 560) and an insulation layer (eg, the insulation layer 562). Additional insulation and RDL will form bumps 564 It was previously formed over the insulating layer 562 to provide additional vertical and horizontal electrical connections in the package based on the design and function of the semiconductor die 504.
在圖26j中,半導體晶粒504會利用鋸片或雷射削切工具570被單體化裁切成為個別的eWLCSP 572。重組式鑲板536沿著側表面580被單體化裁切貫穿囊封體550以及基礎基板材料502,用以從半導體晶粒504的該些側邊處移除囊封體550以及從半導體晶粒504的該些側邊處移除一部分的基礎基板材料502。所以,基礎基板材料502會在eWLCSP 572的形成期間被切割或單體化裁切兩次,一次在晶圓級而一次在重組式鑲板級。因此,介電材料比較不會破裂並且eWLCSP 572的可靠度會獲得改善。 In FIG. 26j, the semiconductor die 504 is singulated into individual eWLCSP 572 using a saw blade or a laser cutting tool 570. The recombination panel 536 is singulated and cut through the encapsulation body 550 and the base substrate material 502 along the side surface 580, so as to remove the encapsulation body 550 from the sides of the semiconductor die 504 and the semiconductor wafer 504. A portion of the base substrate material 502 is removed at the sides of the particles 504. Therefore, the base substrate material 502 is cut or singulated during the formation of the eWLCSP 572 twice, once at the wafer level and once at the recombination panel level. As a result, the dielectric material is less likely to crack and the reliability of eWLCSP 572 is improved.
一部分的基礎基板材料502會在單體化裁切之後保持被設置在半導體晶粒504的側壁516中。在側壁516上方相鄰於半導體晶粒504的基礎基板材料502的厚度為至少1μm。換言之,介於側表面580和半導體晶粒504的側壁516之間的距離D6為至少1μm。eWLCSP 572會在單體化裁切之前或之後進行電氣測試。 A portion of the base substrate material 502 will remain in the sidewall 516 of the semiconductor die 504 after singulation cutting. The thickness of the base substrate material 502 above the sidewall 516 adjacent to the semiconductor die 504 is at least 1 μm. In other words, the distance D6 between the side surface 580 and the sidewall 516 of the semiconductor die 504 is at least 1 μm.

The encapsulation body 550 still remains above the back surface 508 of the semiconductor die 504. The encapsulation body 550 above the back surface 508 of the semiconductor die 504 omits the need for a backside protective layer or a backside stack, thereby reducing the cost of the eWLCSP 572. The encapsulation body 550 is completely removed from the side of the semiconductor die 504 during singulation cutting so as to expose the side surface of the base substrate material 502 580. In one embodiment, the area of the eWLCSP 572 is approximately 4.445 mm in length x 3.875 mm in width, and the pitch of the bumps 564 is 0.35 to 0.50 mm.

Partial sectional view. An interface layer or a double-sided tape 632 is formed on the carrier 630, and is used as a temporary adhesive solder film, an etch stop layer, or a thermal release layer. The semiconductor die 604 in FIG. 29b is mounted to the carrier 630 and the interface layer 632. For example, using a pick-and-place operation, the active surface 612 is positioned toward the carrier.
載體630能夠為一可容納多個半導體晶粒604的圓形或矩形鑲板(大於300mm)。載體630的表面積可以大於半導體晶圓600的表面積。較大的載體會降低半導體封裝的製造成本,因為有較多的半導體晶粒能夠在該較大載體上被處理,從而降低每個單元的成本。半導體封裝與處理設備會針對正在被處理的晶圓或載體的大小來設計與配置。 The carrier 630 can be a circular or rectangular panel (greater than 300 mm) that can accommodate a plurality of semiconductor dies 604. The surface area of the carrier 630 may be larger than the surface area of the semiconductor wafer 600. A larger carrier reduces the manufacturing cost of a semiconductor package because more semiconductor dies can be processed on the larger carrier, thereby reducing the cost per unit. Semiconductor packaging and processing equipment is designed and configured for the size of the wafer or carrier being processed.
為進一步降低製造成本,載體630的大小會不相依於半導體晶粒604的大小或半導體晶圓600的大小來選擇。也就是,載體630具有固定或是標準化大小,其能夠容納從一或更多個半導體晶圓600處單體化裁切出來的各種大小半導體晶粒604。於其中一實施例中,載體630為直徑 330mm的圓形。於另一實施例中,載體630為寬度560mm以及長度600mm的矩形。半導體晶粒604可以有10mm乘10mm的面積,它們係被放置在標準化載體630上。或者,半導體晶粒604可以有20mm乘20mm的面積,它們被放置在相同的標準化載體630上。據此,標準化載體630能夠應付任何大小的半導體晶粒604,其允許後續的半導體處理設備針對共同的載體被標準化,也就是,不相依於晶粒大小或是進料晶圓大小。半導體封裝設備能夠針對一標準晶圓來設計與配置,利用一組共同的處理工具、設備、以及材料清單來處理來自任何進料晶圓大小的任何半導體晶粒大小。該共同或標準化載體630藉由減少或消弭以晶粒大小或進料晶圓大小為基礎的特殊化半導體處理線的需求而降低製造成本與資本風險。藉由選擇預設的載體大小用在來自所有半導體晶圓的任何大小半導體晶粒便能夠施行靈活的製造線。 In order to further reduce the manufacturing cost, the size of the carrier 630 may be selected independently of the size of the semiconductor die 604 or the size of the semiconductor wafer 600. That is, the carrier 630 has a fixed or standardized size, which can accommodate semiconductor dies of various sizes 604 that are individually cut out from one or more semiconductor wafers 600. In one embodiment, the carrier 630 has a diameter 330mm round. In another embodiment, the carrier 630 is a rectangle with a width of 560 mm and a length of 600 mm. The semiconductor die 604 may have an area of 10 mm by 10 mm, and they are placed on a standardized carrier 630. Alternatively, the semiconductor die 604 may have an area of 20 mm by 20 mm, and they are placed on the same standardized carrier 630. Accordingly, the standardized carrier 630 can cope with semiconductor dies of any size 604, which allows subsequent semiconductor processing equipment to be standardized for a common carrier, that is, independent of the die size or the size of the incoming wafer. Semiconductor packaging equipment can be designed and configured for a standard wafer, utilizing a common set of processing tools, equipment, and bill of materials to process any semiconductor die size from any incoming wafer size. The common or standardized carrier 630 reduces manufacturing costs and capital risks by reducing or eliminating the need for specialized semiconductor processing lines based on die size or incoming wafer size. Flexible manufacturing lines can be implemented by selecting a preset carrier size for use with any size semiconductor die from all semiconductor wafers.

在圖29i中所示的係eWLCSP 672,其具有被形成在半導體晶粒604的背表面610與側壁608上方的囊封體644。半導體晶粒604經由導體層614以及650被電氣連接至凸塊662,以便經由互連結構664達到外部互連的目的。互連結構664的導體層不會延伸超過半導體晶粒604的一覆蓋區,並且因而形成一扇入封裝。於其中一實施例中,導體層650被形成在半導體晶粒604的一覆蓋區裡面並且與半導體晶粒604的側壁608相隔至少1μm的距離D9。絕緣層660覆蓋半導體晶粒604與囊封體644之間的介面,以便在處理期間保護該介面並且改善該裝置的可靠度。於其中一實施例中,絕緣層660延伸超過半導體晶粒604的該覆蓋區1μm或更大的距離D10並且延伸在囊封體644的表面648上方。 The system eWLCSP 672 shown in FIG. 29i has an encapsulation body 644 formed over the back surface 610 and the side wall 608 of the semiconductor die 604. The semiconductor die 604 is electrically connected to the bump 662 via the conductor layers 614 and 650 so as to achieve the purpose of external interconnection via the interconnect structure 664. The conductor layer of the interconnect structure 664 does not extend beyond a footprint of the semiconductor die 604 and thus forms a fan-in package. In one embodiment, the conductive layer 650 is formed in a coverage area of the semiconductor die 604 and separated from the sidewall 608 of the semiconductor die 604 by a distance D9 of at least 1 μm.

Therefore, the encapsulation body 644 is formed above the five sides of the semiconductor die 604, that is, above the four base substrate side surfaces 622 and above the back surface 610. The encapsulation body 644 above the back surface 610 of the semiconductor die 604 omits the need for a backside protective layer or a backside stack, thereby reducing the cost of the eWLCSP 672.
