Description
- 1. Field of Invention
- The present invention relates generally to a method of fabricating a ceramic substrate with a thermal conductive plug of a multi-chip package. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of improving the fabricating process of the thermal conductive plug in the ceramic substrate in order to increase performance of the ceramic substrate of a multi-chip package.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- The demand of advanced electronic technology requires electronic products to be made lighter, thinner, faster, and smarter while simultaneously making them more friendly, powerful, reliable, robust, and less expensive. Thus, the trend for electronic packages is to develop highly-integrated packaging structures. Various techniques have been developed for having a large number of input/output points (I/O) in a device. The ceramic substrate is being widely utilized due to the desirable properties. Because the ceramic substrate has similar thermal expansion coefficient to the semiconductor device, thus a larger area of a chip can be used on the ceramic substrate and the detaching problem between the chip and the ceramic substrate can be prevented. Further, the ceramic substrate dose not absorb the moisture from the air, therefore, the ‘pop-corn’ effect and the peeling problem during the packaging can be effectively prevented.
- Due to the complicated functions of the chip, a lot of heat dissipating problems are still required to be resolved. One of the methods of dissipating heat is to form a plurality of thermal conductive plugs under the die pad of the substrate. The heat generated from the chip will be conducted through the die pad and thermal conductive plugs to a ground plate located on the other side of the substrate. The ground plate is thermally conducted to other thermal conductive devices so that the heat generated from the chip can then be dissipated out to the external environment.
- The conventional method of fabricating the thermal conductive plug inside the ceramic substrate is to perform the step of forming the thermal conductive plugs after cofiring the ceramic substrate. However, since the hardness of the ceramic substrate is very high, and the ceramic substrate is very brittle plus its measurement is very thick. Therefore, the only way to drill the thermal conductive holes in the ceramic substrate is by a laser method. A stencil printing method is carried out to fill the metal paste into the thermal conductive holes and followed by cofiring the metal paste so that thermal conductive plugs are formed in the thermal conductive holes.
- From the above-mentioned fabrication, the formation of the thermal conductive holes on the ceramic substrate has to be by laser. However, in order to penetrate through the high hardness of thick ceramic substrate, a lot of energy is required. The high power of a laser machine is very expensive. On the other hand, the size of the metal conductive plug will be reduced after cofiring the metal paste in the thermal conductive holes. After cofiring, the size of the thermal conductive holes remains unchanged and the size of the thermal conductive plugs are shrunken, therefore, voids will be formed in the thermal conductive holes. The thermal conductivity will be inefficient and those voids will lead to produce rents in the ceramic substrate. The worst is that the thermal conductive plugs will even fall out from the holes. As a result, specific materials for the metal paste have to be chosen to use so that the volume will not shrink but rather expand during the cofiring process. However, the fabrication is then limited to the selection of the materials of the metal paste.
- It is an object of the present invention provides a method of fabricating a ceramic substrate with a thermal conductive plug of a multi-chip package that can effectively reduce the production cost by using a punching method to form the thermal conductive holes.
- It is another object of the present invention to provide an improved method of fabricating a thermal conductive plug inside a ceramic substrate of a multi-chip package that can simplify the whole fabricating process. The method of the invention not only allow the thermal conductive holes to be completely filled with the metal paste but it also allow the thermal conductive plugs to be fabricated simultaneously while the cofiring process is proceeding on the ceramic substrate.
- To achieve the foregoing and other objects and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention. A plurality of green tapes is provided. A machine punching method is carried out to forming a plurality of conductive openings and thermal conductive openings on green tapes. A maximum width of the thermal conductive opening is approximately between 20 milli-inches to 40 milli-inches. A metal paste is filled into the conductive openings and the thermal conductive openings. A heating process is performed to stack the green tapes together, wherein the metal paste inside the conductive openings of every green tape is in contact with its neighboring metal paste within the conductive openings of the green tapes. The metal paste inside the thermal conductive openings of the green tapes is in contact with each neighboring metal paste inside the thermal conductive openings. Cofire those green tapes and the metal paste to form a pre-substrate. The pre-substrate comprises an insulating structure, a plurality of thermal conductive plugs and conductive plugs. The insulating structure is formed by cofiring the green tapes so that a plurality of conductive plugs are formed due to the cofiring on the metal paste in the conductive openings. A plurality of thermal conductive plugs is also formed by cofiring the metal paste inside the thermal conductive openings. The pre-substrate further comprises a top surface and a bottom surface. A sputtering deposition is performed to form a first metal film on the top surface of the pre-substrate and a second metal film on the bottom surface of the pre-substrate. A plurality of die pads and conductive traces are formed by patterning the first metal film. The die pads in contacted with the thermal conductive plugs and the conductive traces in contacted with the conductive plugs. A plurality of chips is adhered on the die pads and is electrically connected to the conductive traces.
- In one preferred embodiment of the invention, a polishing method is carried out to planarize the top surface and the bottom surface of the pre-substrate after cofiring the green tapes and the metal paste. A flat insulating layer is formed on the top surface and bottom surface of the pre-substrate during the planarizating process. A plurality of openings are formed on the insulating layer to exposure the conductive plugs and the thermal conductive plugs.
- The pre-substrate further comprises a plurality of aligning-mark holes, which are formed into cavity-shaped holes and are used to align a mask layer to the pre-substrate. A fabricating method of the aligning-mark holes includes forming a plurality of aligning hole on a predetermined number of green tapes while forming the conductive openings and the thermal conductive openings on the green tapes. The green tapes are aligned to each other according to the aligning holes on the predetermined number of green tapes and are stacked together with the green tapes without the aligning holes. After cofiring the green tapes and the metal paste a plurality of aligning-mark holes is formed from the aligning holes.
- Therefore, the heat generated from the chip is conducted through the die pad to the thermal conductive plug then to the second metal film. From the second metal film, the heat is then dissipated out to the external environment from the second metal film. Since, the ceramic substrate can dissipate heat easily to the outside, thus, a powerful chip can be utilized in the invention.
- The foregoing fabrication disclosed that the conductive openings, the thermal conductive openings and the aligning holes are formed by the machine punching method. Therefore, these features can be fabricated on the green tapes simultaneously by one punching process. Thus, the fabrication process is simplified and much faster plus less costly. Further, the conductive plug, the thermal conductive plugs and the aligning-mark hole can also be fabricated simultaneously in the cofiring process. Thus, the fabrication process of the ceramic substrate with the thermal conductive plug is simplified. In addition, since the metal paste is filled into the conductive opening and the thermal conductive openings before heating process. Therefore, the material selection of the metal paste is more flexible. The thickness of the ceramic substrate can be controlled in accordance with the layer number of the green tapes. The size of circuit traces of the circuit fabrication can be accurately controlled by the sputtering deposition of forming the metal film and the photographic etching process. Moreover, the present invention also provides an easy method to fabricate the aligning hole so that the aligning hole can be used to align the mask layer during the photographic etching process.

Thegreen tape 110 is made of materials consisting of low temperature glass, ceramic power, a dispersant and an adhesion.

The adhesion is a material used for making thegreen tape 110 to be adhesive. - Referring to FIG. 2, a plurality of conductive openings112 (only one is shown in the FIGS. 2-4) and a plurality of thermal
conductive openings 114 are formed on thegreen tape 110 by utilizing a machine pouching method. A maximum width of theconductive opening 112 is approximately between 5 milli-inches to 15 milli-inches, and a maximum width of the thermalconductive openings 114 is about 20 milli-inches to 40 milli-inches. A stencil printing method is carried out to fill theconductive opening 112 and the thermalconductive openings 114 with ametal paste 120 so that a structure of thegreen tape 110 shown in FIG. 3 can be formed. Themetal paste 120 is made of materials including a low temperature glass material, metal power, a dispersant and an adhesion. The dispersant is a material used for preventing the low temperature glass and the ceramic power from agglomerating together. The adhesion is a material used for making thegreen tape 120 to be adhesive. The metal power can be selected from a metal group consisting of silver or gold or copper. - A stacking process is performed to interlap the plurality of
green tapes 110 through a heat pressing method so that the metal paste inside theconductive openings 112 of everygreen tape 110 can be in conducted with each other. The metal paste inside the thermalconductive openings 114 of eachgreen tape 110 is also in conducted with each other. A cofiring process is carried out to heat up thegreen tapes 110 and themetal paste 120 at a predetermined temperature for a certain period so that organic materials inside thegreen tapes 110 and themetal paste 120 such as the dispersant, the adhesion are all vaporized. Thegreen tapes 110 and themetal paste 120 are then heated up to a higher temperature in order to cofire and solidify the low temperature glass material inside thegreen tapes 110 and themetal paste 120. Therefore, a structure shown in FIG. 5 is formed and is used as a pre-substrate 130. The pre-substrate 130 further comprises an insulatingstructure 136, a plurality of thermalconductive plugs 134 and a plurality of conductive plugs 132.

Thosegreen tapes 110 with aligningholes 139 are then stacked together with othergreen tapes 110 without the aligningholes 139. After the heating and filling with the metal paste processes, the aligningholes 139 are formed into the aligning-mark holes 137 in the pre-substrate 130. Since those aligning-mark holes 137 are not drilled through holes, thus cavity-shaped of these aligning-mark holes 137 are induced in the pre-substrate 130. A diameter of the aligning-mark holes 137 is approximately between 10 milli-inches to 25 milli-inches. - A planarazing process, such as a polishing method, is performed to planarize the
