Description

    CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
  • This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 101128619, filed on Aug. 8, 2012. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.

  • The invention relates to a package structure and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly, to a package carrier and a manufacturing method thereof.
  • 2. Description of Related Art
  • The purpose of chip package is to protect exposed chips, to reduce contact density in a chip, and to provide good thermal dissipation for chips. A leadframe serving as a carrier of a chip is usually employed in a conventional wire bonding technique. As contact density in a chip gradually increases, the leadframe which is unable to satisfy current demands on the high contact density is replaced by a package carrier which can achieve favorable contact density. Besides, the chip is packaged onto the package carrier by conductive media, such as conductive wires or bumps.
  • Take a light-emitting diode (LED) package structure commonly used at present time as an example. A LED chip has to be packaged before used, and the LED chip generates a large amount of heat when emitting light. Therefore, if the heat generated by the LED chip cannot be dissipated and keeps accumulating in the LED package structure, a temperature of the LED package structure would keep rising. In this way, the LED chip may be overheated, which causes luminance decay and shortens operating life thereof or even causes permanent damage in server cases.
  • As the integration level of integrated circuits increases, due to the mismatch of thermal expansion coefficient between the LED chip and the package carrier, the phenomena of thermal stress and warpage become more and more severe, and that causes the reliability between the LED chip and the package carrier to decrease. Therefore, in addition to enhancing the light extraction efficiency, the current package technology focuses on decreasing the thermal stress of the package structure to increase the operating life and the reliability of the package structure.

  • Since the present embodiment uses the insulation substrate 110 as the core of the package carrier 100, wherein the insulation substrate 110 has an ideal thermal expansion coefficient (similar to a thermal expansion coefficient of a heating element used subsequently, for example), when the package carrier 100 is used in the package of a heating element (not shown) subsequently, a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the package carrier 100 and the heating element carried on the package carrier 100 is reduced, which prevents a stress between the heating element and the insulation substrate 110 from increasing because of a too great difference in thermal expansion coefficient therebetween and effectively prevents the peeling and damage of the heating element from happening, thereby enhancing the using reliability of the package carrier 100. In addition, since the patterned circuit layer 140 of the present embodiment is formed by electroless plating or by the semi-additive process, a width of the patterned circuit layer 140 is able to meet the specification of fine circuits.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the package carrier of FIG. 1H carrying a heating element. In the present embodiment, the package carrier 100 is adapted for carrying a heating element 200, wherein the heating element 200 is disposed on the surface treatment layer 160 on the pads 142 exposed by the openings 152 of the solder mask layer 150. The heating element 200 is, for example, an electronic chip or a photoelectric device but is not limited thereto. For example, the electronic chip may be an integrated circuit chip, such as a single chip (like a graphic chip, a memory chip, or a semiconductor chip) or a chip module. The photoelectric device is, for example, a LED, a laser diode or a gas-discharge light source. Herein, the heating element 200 being a LED serves as an example.
  • In detail, the heating element 200 (such as a semiconductor chip) may be electrically connected to the surface treatment layer 160 by flip chip bonding. Since the present embodiment uses the insulation substrate 110 with an ideal thermal expansion coefficient as the core of the package carrier 100, a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the package carrier 100 and the heating element 200 is gradually reduced. In this way, a stress between the heating element 200 and the package carrier 100 can be prevented from increasing because of a too great difference in thermal expansion coefficient therebetween, and the peeling and damage of the heating element 200 is effectively prevented from happening, thereby enhancing the using reliability of the package carrier 100. Furthermore, when the heating element 200 is disposed on the package carrier 100, heat generated by the heating element 200 is transmitted to the outside rapidly through the surface treatment layer 160, the patterned circuit layer 140 and the conductive posts 120 a. In this way, the package carrier 100 of the present embodiment effectively dissipates the heat generated by the heating element 200, thereby enhancing the using efficiency and operating life of the heating element 200. In addition, a plurality of solder balls 210 may be disposed on the lower surface 114 of the insulation substrate 110 of the package carrier 100 of the present embodiment, and the package carrier 100 may be electrically connected to an external circuit (not shown) through the solder balls 210, which effectively enhances the application of the package carrier 100.
  • In summary of the above, the package carrier of the invention uses an insulation substrate with an ideal thermal expansion coefficient as a core. Therefore, when the package carrier is used in the package of a heating element (such as a chip) subsequently, a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the package carrier and the heating element carried on the package carrier is reduced effectively, which prevents a stress between the heating element and the insulation substrate from increasing because of a too great difference in thermal expansion coefficient therebetween and effectively prevents the peeling and damage of the heating element from happening, thereby enhancing the using reliability of the package carrier.
  • Although the invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, they are not intended to limit the invention. It is apparent to people of ordinary skill in the art that modifications and variations to the invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
