Description
FIELD

The present application is related to the field of semiconductors, and particularly to a method for forming chip packages and a chip package.


BACKGROUND

This section is intended to provide a background or context to the invention recited in the claims. The description herein is not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section.


With the advent of the artificial intelligence era, the trend of semiconductor integrated circuits is toward more functions and faster computation speeds. Simply following the trend using system-on-chip (SOC) integration on large chips will undoubtedly make circuit design more difficult and more expensive to manufacture. The more practical solution is to use heterogeneous integration technology of multiple chiplets to accomplish functional integration. Based on this, an important task for high-end packaging at present is to develop a high-efficiency and high-density multi-chip interconnection technology, and to replace SOC integration on a large chip by using broadband connections among bare chips to form a physical layer functional block, thereby realizing low cost and high degree of freedom with the same functionality.


In existing multi-chip interconnection technologies, such as embedded multi-chip interconnection bridging (EMIB), a silicon bridge is embedded in a substrate to realize chip interconnection, so that the interconnection density and the interconnection efficiency can be increased. However, conventional EMIB requires a complicated packaging process and is expensive.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method 100 of forming chip packages according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 1, the method 100 may include steps 101-106, which are described in further details below.



FIG. 2A-2E illustrate cross-sectional views illustrating various stages in a process of forming chip packages, according to some embodiments.


Referring first to FIG. 2A, step 101 is performed, in which a carrier 10 is provided, and a plurality of interconnect devices, such as interconnect devices 11 and 11′, are arranged at intervals on a first surface 101 of the carrier 10. In some embodiments, the plurality of interconnect devices are arranged equidistantly or at equal intervals (e.g., the gap between any two adjacent interconnect devices is the same or about the same). In some embodiments, the interconnect devices (11, 11′) may be formed as passive devices or may be formed as active devices. In some embodiments, the interconnect device (11,11′) may be formed as an interconnect device having a vertical interconnect via 111, the vertical interconnect via 111 being a TSV (Through Silicon Vias, Through Silicon Vias 111), such that I/O pins may also be formed on the lower surface of the interconnect device (11, 11′) of the package. It should be understood that the interconnect device (11, 11′) may of course also be provided without vertical interconnect vias.


Referring to FIG. 2B, step 102 is performed, in which a plurality of chipsets 15 are assembled over the plurality of interconnect devices 11. In some embodiments, each chipset 15 comprises at least two chips having their respective front surfaces with first bumps formed thereon facing downward (toward the carrier) for bonding to a first surface of a corresponding interconnect device facing away from the carrier so as to enable the at least two chips in each chipset to be electrically connected through the interconnect device. FIG. 2B shows a first chipset 15 and a second chipset 15′ are adjacent to each other. In some embodiments, the first chipset may include a first chip 21 and a second chip 22, and the second chipset may include a first chip 21′ and a second chip 22′. In some embodiments, the lower surface of each chip has first bumps 20, which may also be referred to as chip pins. The surface of the chip having the chip pins may be referred to as a front surface, and the surface opposite to the front surface may be referred to as a back surface. In a semiconductor package, such a package with chips facing down (toward the external terminals or solder bump) may also be referred to as a face-down package. In some embodiments, the first bumps 20 may be formed as solder bumps made of a conductive material, which may include Cu, Au, or the like, or alloys thereof, as well as other materials. In some embodiments, a chipset packaged together may include multiple chips of the same or different functions, for example, a first chip may be a logic chip, a second chip may be a memory chip, and a chipset may include three or more chips of the same or different functions.


In some embodiments, each chip has on a front surface facing the carrier opposite first and second edge regions and solder bumps 25 are formed in the edge regions. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B. a first chip 21 of the first chipset has opposing first and second edge regions 211, 212 and a second chip 22 of the first chipset has opposing first and second edge regions 221, 222, each of which is provided with bumps 25.


In some embodiments, at least two sets of conductive pads may be formed on a front or first surface of each interconnect device away from the carrier for respectively bonding to the first bumps in the first edge regions of at least two chips in a corresponding chipset; a fan-out circuit is formed on a surface of the interconnect device on a side remote from the carrier for coupling to the at least two sets of conductive pads. For example, a first set of conductive pads and a second set of conductive pads are formed on a surface of the interconnect device 11 on a side away from the carrier, the first set of conductive pads being used for bonding to first bumps formed in the first edge region 211 of the first chip 21, the second set of conductive pads being used for bonding to first bumps formed in the first edge region 221 of the second chip 22, and a fan-out circuit for coupling the first set of conductive pads and the second set of conductive pads is formed for realizing electrical coupling between the first chip 21 and the second chip 22.


In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 2A, before step 102 is performed, a plurality of self-alignment devices may also be arranged at intervals on the first surface 101 of the carrier 10 In some embodiments, the plurality of self-alignment devices are located at predetermined dividing positions of adjacent chipsets. As described above, each chip has opposite first and second edge regions on the front surface facing the carrier. In some embodiments, the first edge region is the region to which the interconnect device is bonded and the second edge region is the region to which the self-alignment device is bonded. Therefore, while the first edge region of a chip on either side of the predetermined dividing position of two adjacent chipsets is bonded to the surface of the side of the interconnect device facing away from the carrier in a self-aligned manner through the solder balls, the second edge region can be bonded to the surface of the side of the self-alignment device facing away from the carrier in a self-aligned manner through the solder balls. For example, the self-alignment device 12 at the boundary position between the first chipset 15 and the second chipset 15′ has a left part area of its upper surface for self-alignment with the second edge region of the second chip 22 in the first chipset 15 and a right part area of its upper surface for self-alignment with the second edge region of the first chip 21′ in the second chipset 15′.


Referring to FIG. 2C, step 103 is performed, in which a molded package layer 30 is formed around the chipsets. In some embodiments, the first chip 11 and the second chip 12 and the interconnect device 13 are embedded in the molded package layer 30. In some embodiments, the material of the molded package layer 30 may include an epoxy, an organic polymer, or a polymer with or without a silicon-based or glass filler. In some embodiments, the material of the molded package layer 30 may include a liquid molding compound that is a gel-type liquid. The molded package layer 30 may also include other insulating and/or encapsulating or other materials.


Next, step 104 is executed, in which the carrier 10 is removed and the molded package layer 30 is thinned to expose some of the first bumps 20 (e.g., the first bumps not covered by the interconnect device). Thinning treatment can be performed on the surface of the side of the molded package layer 30 from which the carrier 10 is removed, so as to expose the first bumps 20 of the first chip and the second chip of each chipset. For example, in some embodiments, a mold release process may be used to remove the carrier 10, and the carrier 10 may also be removed using a laser process or an Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation process. In other embodiments, the carrier 10 and the chip may be coupled using a peelable adhesive material and the carrier 10 may be torn off for removal in step 106. Other methods may also be used to remove the carrier.


After removal of the carrier 10, the backside of the interconnect devices 11 and the self-alignment devices 12 are exposed. In some embodiments, a chemical mechanical polishing process, an etching process, or other methods may be used to remove portions of the molding compound in the thinning process. During or after the thinning process, the first bumps 20 (i.e., the chip pins) of the first and second chips in each chipset may be partially removed, exposing the conductive contact surfaces of the first bumps 20 of the first and second chips.


Referring to FIG. 2D, step 105 is performed, in which second bumps 40 are formed on the surface of the molded package layer 30 on the side where the first bumps 20 are exposed.


In some embodiments, a redistribution layer or (RDL) 50 may be formed on a surface of the molded package layer 30 on a side where the metal contact surfaces of the first bumps 20 are exposed, and a plurality of second bumps 40 may be formed on the redistribution layer 50. For example, the redistribution layer 50 may be formed by photolithography and electroplating on a front surface of the molded package layer 30 where the first bumps 20 are exposed. In some embodiments, the dielectric material of the molded package layer 30 may be a photosensitive material, a non-photosensitive material, a liquid material, a dry film material, or the like. In some embodiments, the redistribution layer 50 may not be used, and the second bump 40 may be directly formed on the metal contact surface of the first bumps 20 exposed on the surface of the molded package layer 30, that is, solder bumps of a conductive material is formed on the metal contact surface of the first bumps 20 as the second bump 40. In other embodiments, a solder covering layer (solder capping) may be formed on a surface of the molded package layer 30 on the side where the first bumps 20 are exposed, and the solder covering layer accumulates a plurality of conductive bumps on the surface of the molded package layer 30 on the side where the first bumps 20 are exposed, so as to implement electrical connection between the chip package and external semiconductors.


Referring to FIG. 2E, step 106 is performed, in which the molded package layer is diced to obtain a plurality of package units or chip packages 55. In some embodiments, one chip package 55 comprises a chipset.


In some embodiments, the molded package layer may be cut along a line across each self-alignment device 12 in a direction perpendicular to the cross section shown in FIG. 2D to separate adjacent chipsets.


According to various aspects of the above embodiments, the same or similar effects as the EMIB technology are achieved with lower cost and simpler manufacturing process by adopting the novel package structure designs and unique process flows described herein. On the one hand, no interconnect devices need to be embedded in the substrate (substrate), reducing the complexity and cycle time of design and fabrication. On the other hand, the associated cost of the substrate is eliminated, thereby providing a flexible and low-cost solution for multi-chip attachment and packaging.


Referring to FIG. 2E, the present invention also provides a chip package 55 made using the method of the above embodiment.
