Description

    BACKGROUND
  • The semiconductor industry has experienced rapid growth due to continuous improvements in the integration density of a variety of electronic components (e.g., transistors, diodes, resistors, capacitors, etc.). For the most part, this improvement in integration density has come from repeated reductions in minimum feature size, which allows more components to be integrated into a given area. As the demand for even smaller electronic devices has grown recently, there has grown a need for smaller and more creative packaging techniques of semiconductor dies.
  • As semiconductor technologies evolve, multi-chip wafer level package based semiconductor devices have emerged as an effective alternative to further reduce the physical size of a semiconductor chip. In a wafer level package based semiconductor device, active circuits such as logic, memory, processor circuits and the like are fabricated on different wafers and each wafer die is stacked on top of another wafer die using pick-and-place techniques. Much higher density can be achieved by employing multi-chip semiconductor devices. Furthermore, multi-chip semiconductor devices can achieve smaller form factors, cost-effectiveness, increased performance and lower power consumption.
  • A multi-chip semiconductor device may comprise a top active circuit layer, a bottom active circuit layer and a plurality of inter-layers. In a multi-chip semiconductor device, two dies may be bonded together through a plurality of micro bumps and electrically coupled to each other through a plurality of through-silicon vias. The micro bumps and through-silicon vias provide an electrical interconnection in the vertical axis of the multi-chip semiconductor device. As a result, the signal paths between two semiconductor dies are shorter than those in a traditional multi-chip device in which different dies are bonded together using interconnection technologies such as wire bonding based chip stacking packages. A multi-chip semiconductor device may comprise a variety of semiconductor dies stacked together. The multiple semiconductor dies are packaged before the wafer has been diced. The wafer level package technology has some advantages. One advantageous feature of packaging multiple semiconductor dies at the wafer level is multi-chip wafer level package techniques may reduce fabrication costs. Another advantageous feature of wafer level package based multi-chip semiconductor devices is that parasitic losses are reduced by employing micro bumps and through-silicon vias.

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS
  • The making and using of the present embodiments are discussed in detail below. It should be appreciated, however, that the present invention provides many applicable inventive concepts that can be embodied in a wide variety of specific contexts. The specific embodiments discussed are merely illustrative of specific ways to make and use the invention, and do not limit the scope of the invention.
  • The present disclosure will be described with respect to embodiments in a specific context, a multi-chip wafer level semiconductor package. The embodiments may also be applied, however, to a variety of semiconductor devices.
  • Referring initially to FIG. 1, a cross sectional view of a multi-chip semiconductor device is illustrated in accordance with an embodiment. The multi-chip semiconductor device 100 comprises a first semiconductor die 131, a second semiconductor die 132 and a third semiconductor die 133. As shown in FIG. 1, the first semiconductor die 131, the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 are stacked together to form the multi-chip semiconductor device 100. More particularly, the backside of the second semiconductor die 132 is attached to the front side of the first semiconductor die 131 using a first adhesive layer 126. Likewise, the backside of the third semiconductor die 133 is attached to a photo-sensitive material layer 108 using a second adhesive layer 124.
  • The multi-chip semiconductor device 100 further comprises a plurality of solder balls 110 as input/output (I/O) pads mounted on the top side of the multi-chip semiconductor device 100 using a plurality of under bump metallization (UBM) structures 112. In order to give a basic insight of the inventive aspects of various embodiments, the first semiconductor die 131, the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 are drawn without details. However, it should be noted the first semiconductor die 131, the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 may comprise basic semiconductor layers such as active circuit layers, substrate layers, inter-layer dielectric (ILD) layers and inter-metal dielectric (IMD) layers (not shown).
  • In accordance with an embodiment, the first semiconductor die 131 may comprise a plurality of logic circuits such as central processing unit (CPU), graphics processing unit (GPU) and the like. the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 may comprise a plurality of memory circuits such as static random access memory (SRAM) and dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and the like. It should be noted that the first semiconductor die 131, the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 may have many embodiments, which are also in the scope of the present disclosure.
  • The multi-chip semiconductor device 100 may comprise two photo- sensitive material layers 106 and 108. The photo-sensitive material layer 106 is formed on top of the photo-sensitive material layer 108. As shown in FIG. 1, the second semiconductor die 132 is embedded in the photo-sensitive material layer 108. The third semiconductor die 133 is embedded in the photo-sensitive material layer 106. The photo-sensitive material layer 106 may further comprise a plurality of through assembly vias (TAVs) 102, 104 and 116. It should be noted, as shown in FIG. 1, both the TAVs 104 and the TAVs 116 are formed in the photo-sensitive material layer 106. However, the TAVs 116 are formed between the third semiconductor die 133 and the sold ball side of the multi-chip semiconductor device 100. In contrast, the TAVs 104 are formed through the photo-sensitive material layer 106 and further connected to a second redistribution layer 134 formed on top of the photo-sensitive material layer 108. Likewise, the TAVs 102 are formed through the photo-sensitive material layer 106 and further connected to TAVs formed in the photo-sensitive material layer 108. The formation processes of the photo- sensitive material layers 106, 108 and respective TAVs in each layer will be described in detail with respect to FIGS. 2-4.
  • The active circuit layer (not shown) of the first semiconductor die 131 is coupled to the solder balls 110 through the plurality of TAVs 102, 104 and redistribution layers 114 and 134. More particularly, the second redistribution layer 134, the TAVs 102, the TAVs 104 and the first redistribution layer 114 may form various connection paths so that the active circuits of the first semiconductor die 131 can be connected with the solder balls 110. Likewise, the first redistribution layer 114, the second redistribution layer 134 and the TAVs 104, 116 may form various connection paths so that the active circuit (not shown) of the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 can be connected with the solder balls 110.
  • The multi-chip semiconductor device 100 may comprise a base plane 120 formed on the backside of the first semiconductor die 131. The base plane 120 may be formed of a conductive material such as copper, sliver, gold, tungsten, aluminum, combinations thereof or the like. Alternatively, the base plane 120 may be formed of a wide variety of materials comprising glass, silicon, ceramics, polymers and the like. In accordance with an embodiment, the base plane 120 may be adhered on the backside of the semiconductor die 131 by an adhesive 122, such as thermal interface materials including epoxy and the like.
  • As shown in FIG. 1, the base plane 120 is formed directly adjacent to the first semiconductor die 131. Consequently, the base plane 120 may help to dissipate the heat generated from the first semiconductor die 131. As a result, the base plane 120 may help to reduce the junction temperature of the first semiconductor die 131. In comparison with a semiconductor die not having a base plane, the first semiconductor die 131 benefits from the heat dissipation from the base plane 120 so that the reliability and performance of the first semiconductor die 131 may be improved. In accordance with an embodiment, the thickness of the base plane 120 is in a range from 5 um to 50 um. It should be noted that the range of the thickness of the base plane is selected purely for demonstration purposes and are not intended to limit the various embodiments of the present disclosure to any particular thickness. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize many variations, alternatives, and modifications.
  • It should further be noted that one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize the stacking structure of the multi-die semiconductor device 100 may have variations, alternatives, and modifications. For example, the second semiconductor die 132 may be face-to-face attached to the first semiconductor die 131 using a plurality of metal bumps (not shown) Likewise, the third semiconductor die 133 can be flipped. As a result, there may be a face-to-face stacking structure between the third semiconductor die 133 and the second semiconductor die 132.

Furthermore, each first semiconductor die 131 may comprise active circuit layers, substrate layers, ILD layers and IMD layers (not shown). The metal pads 204 and the redistribution layer 202 provide various connection paths for the active circuit layers of the wafer plane 141.
  • FIG. 2B illustrates the process of stacking the second semiconductor die 132 and the third semiconductor die 133 on top of the wafer plane 141. The backside of the second semiconductor die 132 is attached to the top side of the wafer plane 141 by employing a first adhesive 126 such as epoxy, thermal interface materials and/or the like. Likewise, the backside of the third semiconductor die 133 is attached to the top side of the second semiconductor die 132 by employing a second adhesive 124.

According to an embodiment, the change of the physical properties of the exposed regions will cause the exposed regions to be etched away when a developer solution is applied to the photo-sensitive material layer 106. As a result, a variety of openings 252 are formed. The formation of the openings 252 in the photo-sensitive material layer 106 involves lithography operations, which are well known, and hence are not discussed in further detail herein.
