Background technology
At present, in order to tackle as the miniaturization of electronicss such as mobile telephone, notebook computer and wall-hanging TV, lightening trend, comprise that the flat-panel screens as liquid-crystal display (LCD), plasma display, electroluminescence device (EL) has been used as main display device, and the drive integrated circult that drives these electronic units (drives-IC) also needs miniaturization.Bare chip (barechips) is called as encapsulation (packaging) as the series of steps that driving-IC is installed on the circuit card.About the method for encapsulation, what use in the past is that (tape carrier package, TCP) process, this process are included in and form circuit on the polyimide film, and bare chip is installed, and bare chip is overturn downwards, and inject resin in the hole of circuit card in band year encapsulation.
Yet, the shortcoming of TCP method is, (flexibility) is low for the flexibility of packaging component, and on the weight, thickness, length and the size that reduce packaging component, be restricted, because with the thick polyimide film with after Copper Foil is connected with epoxy resin-based adhesive, just chip is installed on the circuit card.
In order to address this problem, developed and used crystal grain mantle structure dress (Chip On Flim recently, COF) bottom filling process (underfill process), this process comprises, by adhering to thin polyimide on the top of thin copper foil or at the surface sputtering copper layer of thin polyimide membrane, form and have super flexible insulating film, make the circuit card of flexibility by formation spongy lead road on insulating film, on the circuit card of flexibility, bare chip is installed, with the gap between resin infill panel and the bare chip.In this COF process, problem is, because the gap between plate and the bare chip is less than tens microns, and the resin of the existing TCP of being used for process contains a large amount of inorganic fillers and solvent, can not directly be applied to COF bottom filling process.In addition, because the gap between plate and the bare chip can be too narrow to below the 10 μ m, and the size of chip is increasing, therefore more and more needs to have better fillibility and even hardened encapsulating composition.
