- Referring to
FIG. 1 , an implementation of asemiconductor package 2 is illustrated. Thepackage 2 includes a semiconductor die 4 having afirst side 6 and asecond side 8. The semiconductor die is an image sensor die having anactive area 10 on thesecond side 8 of the die 4. As illustrated, the sidewalls of the semiconductor die are angled. In various implementations, the angles of the sidewalls may be between 85 degrees and 60 degrees. The angles of the sidewalls may be formed through etching. In some implementations, the etching may be dry etching or wet etching. In various implementations, the semiconductor die may be a different device than an image sensor, such as, by non-limiting example, a processor, a microcontroller, a power semiconductor device, or any other semiconductor device type. An opticallytransmissive lid 12 is coupled to the semiconductor die 4 through an adhesive, twointerconnect bumps 14, and a first redistribution layer (RDL) 16. In various implementations, the optically transmissive lid may include, by non-limiting example, glass, polycarbonate, acrylic, plastics, or other materials that allow some or all of a desired wavelength of light to pass through the material. In various implementations, the adhesive may include, by non-limiting example, epoxy, resin, polymers, glue, and other adhesive materials used in coupling components of semiconductor devices. In other implementations, one or more dams may be coupled between the semiconductor die and the optically transmissive lid. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , an expanded view of the interconnect bumps 14,first RDL 16, andsecond RDL 18 is illustrated. The twobumps 14 are coupled to two die pads ormetal pads 20 on either side of the active area of the device. In various implementations, there may be two or more bumps coupled to two or more die pads. The twobumps 14 are coupled with thefirst RDL 16 to provide mechanical and electrical connection between diepads 20 on the second side of the semiconductor die and asecond RDL 18 that is electrically coupled withouter terminals 22 on thefirst side 6 of the semiconductor die 4. The use of interconnection bumps and two RDLs eliminates the need to form through silicon vias (TSVs) through the semiconductor die material itself. The formation of TSVs can cause thermal and mechanical stress to the semiconductor die. TSV formation can also cause damage to the die pad including cracks and over etching of the pads. Die pad damage can account for most of the failures in current TSV-type image sensor chip scale packages (CSP). The use of interconnect bumps and multiple RDLs may also enable the use of pad pitches that are smaller than 200 microns. For example, semiconductor packages with interconnect bumps may have pad pitches of about 60 microns. In some implementations, the pad pitch may be about 70 microns where the interconnection bumps are copper pillar bumps. In various implementations, the copper pillar bumps may have solder tips. In other implementations, the interconnect bumps may be solder balls. - Referring again to

As illustrated, the semiconductor package also includessolder balls 15 coupled to the first side of the semiconductor die.

However, the scribe lines 30 may be visible from either the first side or the second side of the optically transmissive lid. The scribe lines 30 on the optically transmissive substrate may be thinner in methods of forming a semiconductor package having no TSVs as described herein in comparison to methods of forming semiconductor packages having TSVs. By non-limiting example, the scribe lines illustrated may have a thickness of less than 150 microns. - Referring to

Various methods of manufacturing semiconductor packages as described herein may be used including wafer level processes and panel level processes. Panel level processes may have cost and productivity advantages. Panel level processing may allow for parallel processing of more units of semiconductor packages in a given period compared with wafer level processes without the waste of having to process partial die that can occur in wafer level processing.
