Description

一种芯片的封装结构 技术领域
本发明涉及半导体技术领域,特别涉及一种芯片的封装结构。
背景技术
芯片,已经是电子设备中的常备器件。通过将电子设备运行中需要的功能电路集成在小小的芯片中,一方面可以使得电子设备的功能器件模块化,从而降低了电子设备的设计和制造成本;另一方面通过在芯片中集成大量的电路,能够缩减电子设备的体积,尤其是对消费者领域的电子设备(比如手机)有重大的意义。
智能手机是当前最为普及的消费者电子设备。作为面向消费者的媒体终端设备,是否便于携带和操作是衡量智能手机优劣的一个重要指标。为了能轻松的将智能手机放入裤兜,或者允许消费者单手操作,智能手机的平面面积就不能做的过大,而削减智能手机的平面面积是可以通过削减芯片占用的平面面积来实现的。
为了降低芯片占用的平面面积,在芯片领域有一种叫做POP(Package on Package,堆叠封装)的封装技术。POP封装通常用于智能手机芯片的封装。在智能手机中通常需要装备多种类型的芯片,比如处理器芯片,存储器芯片等。POP封装提出的就是将多种类型芯片的封装体上下堆叠在一起,组成一个新的芯片实体。比如,图1所示的封装结构中包括存储器芯片封装体和处理器芯片封装体。所述存储器芯片封装体被设置于处理器芯片封装体的上方。存储器芯片2被固定在基板6上。所述处理器芯片1又被称为系统芯片(System on Chip,简称SOC),固定在基板7上。基板6和基板7中设置有金属布线,存储器芯片2和处理器芯片1通过跳线(Wired Bonding)或者设置在其底部的接垫(Pad)与各自的基板通信连接。在所述处理器芯片1和存储器芯片2之间还设置有重布线层3。所述重布线层3的上下表面均设有接垫(图中未显示),所述重布线层3的内部设置有金属布线。所述基板6通过焊球8与所述重布线层3相接,所述重布线层3通过焊球4与所述基板7相接。在图1所示的POP封装结构中,当处理器芯片1要从存储器芯片2中读取数据时,读取的数据依次经过基板6,焊球8,重布线层3,焊球4和基板7被传递至处理器芯片1中。
POP封装并不是只能用于处理器芯片和存储器芯片的这一组合,在电子设备中的各种芯片都可以通过POP封装的这种方式堆叠封成成一个芯片实体。使用POP封装就相当于利用厚度方向的空间来减少芯片对电子设备平面空间的占用。在智能手机领域,使用POP封装的最直观的一个结果就是智能手机的平面尺寸变小,即使是搭载有多种功能芯片的高性能智能手机也变得能够一手掌控。
不过,POP封装的缺点也十分明显,那就是会带来电子设备的厚度的提升。在智能手机领域,厚度的提升会影响美观,这也很不利于销售。因此,如何进一步的减小POP封装的厚度,也是业界关注的重点。
发明内容
为了解决现有技术存在的问题,本发明实施例提供了一种封装结构。在所述封装结构中,至少两块芯片被上下叠加着封装在一起。所述封装结构包括第一芯片和第二芯片。所述第二芯片被设置在第二布线板的顶部,而对应的所述第一芯片被固定在所述第二布线板的底部。在本发明实施例提供的封装结构中,所述第一芯片被直接固定在第二芯片的布线板的底部,二者之间额外设置焊球,节省了封装结构在厚度方向上的空间。
在可选择的实施例中,所述第一芯片可以通过芯片粘结膜固定在所述第二布线板的底部。
在可选择的实施例中,所述封装结构还包括第一布线板。所述第一芯片被设置在所述第一布线板上。所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板中均设置有金属布线,所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板的表面设置有与各自内部的金属布线相通的接口,用于将所述金属布线与所述第一芯片或第二芯片,或者其他电路器件电性连接。
所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板的表面的接口可以有多种形式,比如可以为接垫,又比如可以为暴露于所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板表面的一段金属布线。
在可选择的实施例中,所述第一芯片可以通过多种方式与所述第一布线板表面的接口电性连接。比如,所述第一芯片可以通过跳线(Wired Bonding)与处于第一布线板顶部表面的接垫电性连接;又比如,所述第一芯片可以通过底部的接垫与暴露于所述第一布线板顶部表面的金属布线直接接触。与所述第一芯片和所述第一布线板的电性连接的方式类似,第二芯片也可以采用多种方法与所述第二布线板内的金属布线电性连接。
在可选择的实施例中,所述第一布线板和第二布线板之间可以设置有互联结构,用于连通所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板内的金属布线。所述互联结构可以为设置于所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板之间的金属柱;或者,也可以是贯穿所述第一布线板和所述第二布线板之间的塑封材料的镀有金属的穿孔。对应的,所述第一布线板的顶部,和所述第二布线板的底部设置有与所述互联结构对应的接口。所述接口可以为接垫,或者暴露于表面的金属布线,通过焊锡或者直接接触的方式连通所述互联结构。
从工艺成本的角度来说,采用金属柱作为互联结构的加工成本较低。
由于第一芯片贴在所述第二布线板的底部表面,因此互联结构的设置需要避开所述第一芯片。然后,如果互联结构是通过金属柱实现的,那么所述金属柱围绕所述第一芯片排列成环形。这样设置可以增加所述封装结构的稳定程度,能够使得封装结构的厚度方向的应力分布的更均匀,避免开裂。所述环形不限于圆环,可以为三角形环,矩形环等各种形状,甚至可以为围绕所述第一芯片的不规则形状。在较佳的实施例中,所述环形可以为以所述第一芯片为中心的规则图形。
在本发明实施例提供的封装结构中,所述第二芯片和第一芯片是一种上下叠加的结构。处于所述第一芯片上方的所述第二芯片需要与所述第一芯片进行信号互通,而且还需要与所述封装结构的外部进行信号互通。因此,用于连通第一布线板和第二布线板的金属柱可以分成两类:第一金属柱和第二金属柱。对应的,第一布线板中的金属布线也分成了三类:第一金属布线,第二金属布线和第三金属布线。其中,所述第二金属布线与所述第二金属柱相连,所述第二金属布线还与所述一芯片相通,所述第二金属布线和所述第二金属柱构成了所述第一芯片和所述第二芯片之间的信号通路的一部分;第三金属布线则与第一金属 柱相连,所述第三金属布线还与所述第一布线板底部的接垫相连,所述第三金属布线和所述第一金属柱构成了所述第二芯片与所述封装结构外部相通的信号路径的一部分;所述第一金属布线并不与金属柱相连,所述第一金属布线用于将所述第一芯片和所述第一布线板底部的接垫相连,因此,所述第一金属布线构成了所述第一芯片与所述封装结构外部相通的信号路径的一部分。
在电子设备中,本发明实施例提供的封装结构作为一个封装后得到的芯片实体,被安装在电子设备的载板上。所述载板通常是印刷电路板。当所述封装结构被安装在电子设备中时,所述第一布线板底部的接垫通过焊球与所述载板上的电路器件固定连接。

为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例中的技术方案,下面将对实施例描述中所需要使用的附图作简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本发明的一些实施例,对于本领域普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。

图2是本发明实施例的封装结构的示意图;
图3是本发明又一实施例提供的封装结构的示意图;
图4a~4g是本发明实施例提供的封装结构的加工流程图;

具体实施方式
为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本发明实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
本发明实施例提供一种封装结构。在所述封装结构中,两个或两个以上的芯片封装在一起。并且,这些芯片采用的是一种上下叠加的封装方式,即至少一个芯片被封装至另一个芯片的上方。
在本发明实施例中,涉及有关“顶部”和“底部”的描述。需要注意的是,这里的顶部和底部是依照芯片在封装结构所处的位置来进行判定的。
在本发明实施例中,芯片是指将裸片(Die)封装后得到的实体。
参照图2,本发明实施例提供的封装结构包括第一芯片10和第二芯片20。所述第一芯片10被设置在第一布线板12上。所述第二芯片20被设置在第二布线板22上。所述第二布线板22被设置在所述第一芯片10的顶部。从而,所述第一芯片10、第二芯片20、第一布线板12和第二布线板22构成了一种上下层叠的结构。
所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22可以是由绝缘介质为主体构成的多层结构。在所述第一布线板12和所述第二布线板22的表面,或者一个或多个层上布设有金属材质构成的导电片。所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22的不同层间设置有穿孔(Via),这些穿孔穿过所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22的不同的层,甚至表面。穿孔中填充或涂镀有金属。穿孔中的金属与层上的导电片连通。在本发明实施例中,穿孔中的金属与层上的导电片统 称为金属布线。所述金属布线在所述第一布线板12和所述第二布线板22内构成信号路径。
本发明实施例中涉及的金属柱、金属片、导电片和金属布线可以由金属铜等各种金属制成。
从工艺实现的角度来说,所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22可以是基板(Substrate),也可以是重布线板(ReDistribution Layer,简称RDL)。基板和重布线板都是多层结构,但是相比较来说,基板含有玻璃纤维,其中的金属布线的线宽和线距在10um以上(包括水平距离和垂直距离);而重布线板则没有玻璃纤维,其中的金属布线的线宽和线距能够做到5um。所以,如果从节省芯片整体的厚度来考虑,所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22可以同时选择重布线板。
但是从工业成本的角度来考量,芯片堆叠的封装结构通常用于手机芯片领域。而在手机芯片中,处于上方的第二芯片20通常为存储器芯片,对于手机芯片厂商来说,普遍存在着存储器芯片从第三方采购的情况,而采购的存储器芯片通常就已经与基板封装成了一个封装实体,这个封装实体在业界又被称为合格器件封装(Known-Good Package,简称KGP)。由于KGP中已经为存储器芯片设置了基板,并且在基板底部预留了接垫来作为信号接口,如果这时候拆除封装,并将基板替换成重布线板,会带来大量的额外成本。因此,从节省成本的角度考量,所述第二布线板22可以是基板,而第一布线板12则是重布线板。当然,未来面对半导体工艺中的各种需求,第一布线板12和第二布线板22可以采用各种工艺组合,比如,甚至可以考虑使用半导体基板(Interposer),这些都不应构成本发明实施的限定。
继续参照图2,第一芯片10和第二芯片20通过各自底部的接垫(Pad)14和24,分别与第一布线板12和第二布线板22中的金属布线耦合。在所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22之间还布设有金属柱25。所述金属柱25的两端分别被耦合至所述第一布线板12和第二布线板22中的信号路径。
所述第一布线板12的底部设有多个接垫125,所述接垫125用于作为本发明实施例提供的封装结构的对外接口。具体的,在把本发明实施例提供的封装结构装设于电子设备中施,通过焊锡球将所述接垫125固定连接至电子设备的PCB板(Printed Circuit Board,印刷电路板)上。
可选择的,在本发明实施例中,所述第一布线板12中的金属布线包括第一金属布线122,第二金属布线124和第三金属布线126。所述金属柱25包括第一金属柱252和第二金属柱254。所述第一金属布线122连通第一芯片10底部的接垫14和所述第一布线板125底部的接垫125,用于实现所述第一芯片10与本发明实施例提供的封装结构外部的电路的信号互通。所述第二金属布线124连通所述第二金属柱254和所述第一芯片10底部的接垫14,用于实现所述第一芯片10和第二芯片10之间的信号互通。所述第三金属布线126连通所述第一金属柱252和所述第一布线板12底部的接垫,用于实现所述第二芯片20与所述封装结构外部的电路之间的信号互通。
在可选择的实施例中,金属柱25围绕第一芯片10排列成环形,第一金属柱252和第二金属柱254处于不同的环上。在可选择的实施例中,金属柱25排列成的环形可以为圆形环、矩形环甚至是不规则图形的环形。在本发明实施例中,第一芯片10要贴在第二布线板22的底部,因此第二布线板22底部的接垫或者引脚排布必须要给所述第一芯片10预留出空间,从而导致与第二布线板22底部的接垫或引脚对应的金属柱25也需要绕着第一芯片 10排布。当然,由于需要考虑到第一布线板12内的金属布线的排布空间,需要与第一芯片10连通的第二金属柱254,相对于仅需要与第一布线板12底部的接垫连通的第一金属柱252,可以排布的更靠近所述第一芯片。比如,在可选择的实施例中,所述第一金属柱252和第二金属柱254排列成大小不同的两个环形,第一金属柱252排列成的环形环绕所述第一芯片10和所述第二金属柱254排列成的环形。
图2中的封装结构中,第一芯片10和第二芯片20均是通过设置在底部的接垫与布线板中的金属布线耦合。但在可选择的实施方式中,芯片可以通过顶部或者侧部的跳线(Wired Bonding)来与布线板上的金属布线耦合。具体如图3所示,第二芯片20的顶部设有接垫24,接垫24上接有跳线23。所述跳线23通过第二布线板22上的金属布线,连接至第一金属柱252或第二金属柱254。
通常来说,第二芯片20采用跳线的方式连接第二布线板22中的金属布线,这会增加第二芯片20上方的空间需求,也就是提高了芯片厚度。但是正如前文所述,由于第二芯片20可能是采购来的KGP。如果,采购来的KGP中使用的是跳线连接的方式,如果将KGP拆解后改变第二芯片与第二布线板22的连接方法,这会带来额外的工艺和设计成本,因此可以不去改变KGP内的芯片连接方式。
在本发明实施例提供的图2和图3的封装结构中,第一芯片10直接贴装在第二布线板20的底部,而并没有在第一芯片10和第二芯片20之间再设置一层焊球,或者搭载额外的布线板,无论KGP中芯片连接方式是怎么样的,这都已经降低了整个封装结构的厚度。
可选择的,所述第一芯片10可以通过粘胶固定在第二布线板20的底部。这里的粘胶可以是通常用来固定芯片中的裸片的芯片粘结膜(Die Attach Film,简称DAF)。
在图2和图3提供的封装结构中,第一布线板12和第二布线板22之间通过金属柱25进行连通。在实际产品中,第一布线板12和第二布线板22之间的空隙有可能会填充绝缘介质(比如二氧化硅等)。就此,在可选择的实施例中,可以不使用金属柱25,而是在所述绝缘介质中形成连通第一布线板12和第二布线板22的穿孔(Via),通过在穿孔中渡镀或者填充金属,来构成第一布线板12和第二布线板22之间的信号路径。不过,使用金属柱的话,在工艺上会更简单,成本低廉。具体的情参照图4a~图4h中提供的本发明实施例的封装结构的生成方法。
本发明实施例提供的封装方法,包括:
步骤a:请参照图4a,将KGP通过粘胶固定在载板30上。
KGP即采购来的包含第二芯片20和第二布线板22的封装实体。所述第二芯片20和第二布线板22周围填充有塑封材料。将所述KGP翻转过来,所述KGP的顶部与所述载板的表面接触,而所述第二布线板22所处的一侧朝上。
步骤b:请参照图4b,将第一芯片10固定在所述第二布线板22上。
通过黏胶,比如DAF将第一芯片10的顶部粘结在所述第二布线板22上。所述第一芯片10的底部,也就是有接垫14的一侧向上,或者说,背离所述第二芯片20。
步骤c:请参照图4c,制作金属柱阵列;
所述金属柱阵列包括基底29,以及突出于所述基底一侧的复数个金属柱。所述金属阵列可以采用同一种金属,比如铜,一体成型得到。金属柱阵列的制备可以用各种方法,但是如果考虑到成本,可以考虑利用封装工厂中已有的设备和工艺,比如,可以采用蚀刻的 工艺,在一整块金属板上通过蚀刻的方法蚀刻出金属柱来。容易理解的是,金属柱阵列可以预先制作完成,或者采购自第三方,而不需要在当前时刻才制作。
步骤d:请参照图4d,将金属柱阵列扣装在所述KGP上。
将金属阵列扣装在KGP上,所述金属柱25将第一芯片环绕在中心,基底29跨接在第一芯片10的上方。使得金属柱25对准暴露于第二布线板22的表面的金属布线。具体的,可以使得第二布线板22的表面也形成类似于接垫的金属结构,通过焊球来固定耦合金属柱25和金属布线。在本发明实施例中,金属柱25表现为处于第一芯片10两侧的形态。但是在实际产品中,复数个金属柱25可以排列成环形,将第一芯片10环绕在中心。
步骤e:请参照图4e,进行塑封。
将塑封材料35填满所述金属柱阵列和所述第一芯片10之间的间隙。
步骤f:参照图4f,对图4e中所示的结构进行研磨,露出第一芯片10的底部上的接垫。
在本发明实施例中,研磨掉金属柱阵列的基底29,基底29与第一芯片10之间的塑封材料,以及高出所述第一芯片10的底部表面的金属柱25,直到露住第一芯片10的底部的接垫14。
步骤g:参照图4g,制备第一布线板12。
第二布线板12通常包括金属布线,以及包裹所述金属布线的绝缘材料(比如)。因此可以通过涂覆或生长的方式在第一芯片10的表面,以及包裹所述第一芯片10的塑封材料的表面逐层生成绝缘材料。在绝缘材料的一个或多个层上排布金属布线,以及,在绝缘材料的多个层间穿孔,在穿孔中填充或者涂镀金属来形成连接不同的层的金属布线。
根据以上提供的封装方法可以看到,每一根金属柱25都是一体成型的,其前身为预先成型的金属柱阵列,通过研磨的工艺就可以简单的将金属柱固定于封装结构中,并连通和支撑两个芯片。相比用电化学的方法生成金属的信号线路,工艺成本更低,结构更稳固。
在本发明实施例中,整个封装结构相当于被分成了两层:第一层包括所述第一芯片和第一布线板;第二层包括所述第二芯片和第二布线板。在上文描述中,仅是以第一层包括了一个第一芯片、第二层包括了一个第二芯片为例进行说明。在实际产品中,第一层还可以包括多个第一芯片,所述多个第一芯片可以并行设置在所述第一布线板上,也可以采用叠加的方式,一个或多个第一芯片叠加在另一个或多个第一芯片上。多个第一芯片可以直接彼此连通,或者通过所述第一布线板相通。类似的,第二层可以包括多个第二芯片,多个第二芯片可以并行设置在所述第二布线板上,也可以采用叠加的方式。多个第二芯片之间可以直接互通,也可以通过第二布线板互通。
图5所示的是本发明实施例提供的封装结构装配于电子设备中的载板上的示意图。如图所示,第一布线板12底部的接垫125通过焊锡球与电子设备的载板固定连接,并通过所述载板上的电路与载板上的其它芯片或者设备进行数据通信。所述载板最常见的为印刷电路板(Printed Circuit Board)。
以上所述仅为本发明的较佳实施例,并不用以限制本发明,凡在本发明的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
