The present invention relates to interconnects among electronic circuits, and especially to connection topologies for circuit modules.
A variety of techniques are used to interconnect packaged ICs into high density modules. Some techniques require special packages, while other techniques employ conventional packages. In some techniques, flexible conductors are used to selectively interconnect packaged integrated circuits. Staktek Group, L.P. has developed numerous systems for aggregating packaged ICs in both leaded and CSP (chipscale) packages into space saving topologies.
A CSP package body typically has an array of BGA (ball grid array) contacts along a planar lower side that connect a packaged IC chip to an operating environment. The array of contacts allows a high density of connections between the CSP and an operating environment, such as, for example, a circuit board or stacked high-density circuit module.
One issue that may exist when memory CSPs are stacked is signal skew. Stacked memory CSPs typically share many signals such as address and data signals. It is beneficial for operational speed and simplicity if all common signal waveforms reach their destination simultaneously. Such simultaneous signaling may also help manage deleterious signal reflections that occur at the endpoints of signal traces. Many stacked memory modules, however, connect common signal contacts along a series of traces that carry a signal to one CSP after another, not simultaneously. Consequently, skewed signals arrive at different times at different CSPs in the same module.
Yet another issue related to connecting with circuit modules arises when ICs are arranged in stacked modules. Often the footprint of a circuit module is matched to the footprint of the bottom CSP in the module. Such a footprint may not have enough contacts for all desired input/output signal connections. This is especially true when the stacked module is a “system” module having a significant amount of signaling between ICs in the module. Further, a module may need to express a different contact footprint than the bottom CSP of the module to better meet the design needs of the system in which the module is used.
What is needed, therefore, are methods and structures for stacking circuits in thermally efficient, reliable structures that have adequate input and output connections with a flexible contact footprint capability. What is also needed are methods for interconnecting integrated circuits in a manner devised to create balanced signal interconnects and lumped impedance loads.
Two or more integrated circuits are stacked into a high density circuit module. The lower IC is inverted. Electrical connection to the integrated circuits is made by module contacts on a flexible circuit extending along the lower portion of the module. In one embodiment, the flexible circuit provides a balanced electrical connection to two CSP integrated circuits. In another embodiment, the flexible circuit provides a balanced electrical connection to inter-flex contacts of additional flexible circuits on two submodules. The additional flexible circuits provide further balanced connections to CSP integrated circuits in each submodule. In some embodiments, form standards may be used to provide a reliable form about which to wrap flexible circuits.
The invention is used with CSP packages of a variety of types and configurations such as, for example, those that are die-sized, as well those that are near chip-scale as well as the variety of ball grid array packages known in the art. It may also be used with those CSP-like packages that exhibit bare die connectives on one major surface. Thus, the term CSP should be broadly considered in the context of this application. Collectively, these will be known herein as chip scale packaged integrated circuits (CSPs) and preferred embodiments will be described in terms of CSPs, but the particular configurations used in the explanatory figures are not, however, to be construed as limiting. For example, the elevation view of
Typical CSPs, such as, for example, ball-grid-array (“BGA”), micro-ball-grid array, and fine-pitch ball grid array (“FBGA”) packages have an array of connective contacts embodied, for example, as leads, bumps, solder balls, or balls that extend from lower surface 22 of a plastic casing in any of several patterns and pitches. An external portion of the connective contacts is often finished with a ball of solder. Shown in
Flex circuit 30 is shown connecting the constituent CSPs of the module of
The entire flex circuit 30 may be flexible or, as those of skill in the art will recognize, a PCB structure made flexible in certain areas to allow conformability around CSPs and rigid in other areas for planarity along CSP surfaces may be employed as an alternative flex circuit in the present invention. For example, structures known as rigid-flex may be employed. More than one flex circuit may be employed to implement the connections between constituent CSPs in a module 10. Another exemplar embodiment uses three flexible circuits, but more or less may be used.
Each form standard 34 in
Form standard 34 may take many configurations, with examples of embodiments having a downward opening form standard shown in pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/453,398, filed Jun. 3, 2003, a flat form standard, an angular cap, and, as another exemplar, an upward opening form standard shown in pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/845,029, filed May 13, 2004. Both of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/453,398 and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/845,029 are commonly owned by the assignee of the present invention and are hereby incorporated by reference. Module 10 exhibits module contacts 38 through which module 10 connects to application environments in a preferred embodiment. Those of skill will recognize that module contacts 38 are not required to connect module 10 to an application environment and other connective strategies may be employed such as, for example, direct pad to pad connection schemes.
Form standard 34 is, in a preferred embodiment, devised from nickel-plated copper to create a mandrel that mitigates thermal accumulation while providing a standard sized form about which flex circuitry is disposed. Form standard 34 may take other shapes and forms that are coincident with the respective CSP body. It also need not be thermally enhancing although such attributes are preferable. The form standard 34 allows the invention to be employed with CSPs of varying sizes, while articulating a single set of connective structures useable with the varying sizes of CSPs. Thus, a single set of connective structures such as flex circuits 30 and 32 (or a single flexible circuit in the mode where a single flex is used in place of the flex circuit pair 30 and 32) may be devised and used with the form standard 34 method and/or systems disclosed herein to create stacked modules with CSPs having different-sized packages. This will allow the same flex circuitry design to be employed to create iterations of a stacked module 10 from constituent CSPs having a first arbitrary dimension X across attribute Y (where Y may be, for example, package width), as well as modules 10 from, constituent CSPs having a second arbitrary dimension X prime across that same attribute Y. Thus, CSPs of different sizes may be stacked into modules 10 with the same set of connective structures (i.e. flex circuitry). Further, as those of skill will recognize, mixed sizes of CSPs may be implemented into the same module 10.
In a preferred embodiment, portions of flex circuits 30 and 32 may be attached to form standard 34 by metallic bonds. Preferred examples of such metallic bonding of flex circuitry to a form standard are further described in co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/828,495, filed Apr. 20, 2004, which is commonly owned by the assignee of the present invention and hereby incorporated by reference. Other methods for attaching form standard 34 to flex circuitry may be employed in the present invention including, for example, a tape or liquid adhesive. If an adhesive is used for the attachment, the adhesive will be thermally conductive.
Form standard 34 associated with the upper depicted CSP 16 in this embodiment may improve the thermal performance of module 10. Other embodiments may not have a form standard associated with CSP 16.
Such use of a flex circuit 31 may provide, in this embodiment, a balanced signaling capability by providing equal-length conductive paths to each of the depicted CSPs from the operating environment to which module contacts 38 are meant to connect. Such a balanced signaling scheme is further described with reference to
Those of skill will understand that the bailout pattern varies between differently-sized memory devices, for different memory standards, and certainly among other applications besides memory. The bailout pattern depicted is that for a common memory CSP bailout pattern defined by JEDEC for DDR2 DRAMs. Many other types of CSPs may be used. Many of the depicted signals, although given a specific topology in this preferred bailout pattern, may be swapped with another signal of the same type as is needed for different memory allocation schemes or other applications. For example, DQ0 could be used as DQ8 or A4 could be swapped with A7 to facilitate routing.
Step 1204 inverts the assembly to place portion 30A above CSP 18. This allows placement of CSP 16 on a flex contact array pad on the opposite side of flex circuit 30 from CSP 18 in step 1205. Step 1205 also reflows to attach CSP 16 to flex circuit 30. CSP 16 may optionally have a form standard 34 attached before step 1205. Step 1206 attaches module contacts 38 to a flex contact pad array.
Step 1302 paces a first submodule 5 (
Step 1304 inverts the assembly for placement of the second submodule 6 on a contact pad array along the opposite side of flex circuit 31 from submodule 5. Step 1305 places and reflows the second submodule 6. Step 1306 attaches module contacts 38 to flex circuit 31.
With continuing reference to
In the depicted preferred embodiment, the opposing pair of flex contacts including flex contact 44 at the level of conductive layer 42 and flex contact 46 at the level of conductive layer 40 provide contact sites to allow interconnection of CSP contacts 28 through via 48. In this embodiment, flex contacts 44 are aggregated as the flex contact pad array 1401 depicted in
Other embodiments may not use a via but instead may connect opposing CSP contacts 28 (or module contacts 38 in the case of an embodiment such as that in
The depicted topology in
Although the present invention has been described in detail, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many embodiments taking a variety of specific forms and reflecting changes, substitutions and alterations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The described embodiments illustrate the scope of the claims but do not restrict the scope of the claims.
