The present application describes structures such as that which can be incorporated into a microelectronic assembly which may include an unpackaged semiconductor die or packaged semiconductor die, as well as methods for making such structures.
Microelectronic devices such as semiconductor chips typically require many input and output connections to other electronic components. The input and output contacts of a semiconductor chip or other comparable device are generally disposed in grid-like patterns that substantially cover a surface of the device (commonly referred to as an “area array”) or in elongated rows which may extend parallel to and adjacent each edge of the device's front surface, or in the center of the front surface. Typically, devices such as chips must be physically mounted on a substrate such as a printed circuit board, and the contacts of the device must be electrically connected to electrically conductive features of the circuit board.
Semiconductor chips are commonly provided in packages that facilitate handling of the chip during manufacture and during mounting of the chip on an external substrate such as a circuit board or other circuit panel. For example, many semiconductor chips are provided in packages suitable for surface mounting. Numerous packages of this general type have been proposed for various applications. Most commonly, such packages include a dielectric element, commonly referred to as a “chip carrier” with terminals formed as plated or etched metallic structures on the dielectric. These terminals typically are connected to the contacts of the chip itself by features such as thin traces extending along the chip carrier itself and by fine leads or wires extending between the contacts of the chip and the terminals or traces. In a surface mounting operation, the package is placed onto a circuit board so that each terminal on the package is aligned with a corresponding contact pad on the circuit board. Solder or other bonding material is provided between the terminals and the contact pads. The package can be permanently bonded in place by heating the assembly so as to melt or “reflow” the solder or otherwise activate the bonding material.
Many packages include solder masses in the form of solder balls, typically between about 0.005 mm and about 0.8 mm in diameter, attached to the terminals of the package. A package having an array of solder balls projecting from its bottom surface is commonly referred to as a ball grid array or “BGA” package. Other packages, referred to as land grid array or “LGA” packages are secured to the substrate by thin layers or lands formed from solder. Packages of this type can be quite compact. Certain packages, commonly referred to as “chip scale packages,” occupy an area of the circuit board equal to, or only slightly larger than, the area of the device incorporated in the package. This is advantageous in that it reduces the overall size of the assembly and permits the use of short interconnections between various devices on the substrate, which in turn limits signal propagation time between devices and thus facilitates operation of the assembly at high speeds.
An interposer can be provided as an interconnection element having contacts and top and bottom surfaces thereof electrically connected with one or more packaged or unpackaged semiconductor dies at one of the top or bottom surface thereof, and electrically connected with another component at the other one of the top or bottom surfaces. The other component may in some cases be a package substrate which in turn may be electrically connected with another component which may be or may include a circuit panel.
Despite all of the above-described advances in the art, still further improvements in microelectronics assemblies, the individual components thereof, such as interposers and microelectronics elements, and methods of making the same would be desirable.

The present invention will be described in more detail below.
All ranges recited herein include the endpoints, including those that recite a range “between” two values. Terms such as “about,” “generally,” “substantially,” and the like are to be construed as modifying a term or value such that it is not an absolute, but does not read on the prior art. Such terms will be defined by the circumstances and the terms that they modify as those terms are understood by those of skill in the art. This includes, at very least, the degree of expected experimental error, technique error and instrument error for a given technique used to measure a value.
It should be further understood that a description in range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible sub-ranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed sub-ranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 2.3, 3, 4, 5, 5.7 and 6. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range.
As used in this disclosure with reference to a component, a statement that an element, e.g., a conductive element, contact, metal post, terminal, structure, or other element, is “at” a surface of a component, e.g., microelectronic element, interposer, circuit panel, or other substrate, indicates that, when the component is not assembled with any other element, the element is available for contact with a theoretical point moving in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the component toward the surface of the component from outside the component. Thus, an element which is at a surface of a component may project from such surface; may be flush with such surface; or may be recessed relative to such surface in a hole or depression in the component.

In some instances, the smaller cross section of the connection elements 128, 132 can improve alignment with the metal posts 114. Improved alignment can result in improved routing. The connection elements 128, 132 can have sidewalls that have rms surface roughness that is greater than that of the sidewalls 116 of the metal posts 114. In one embodiment, the sidewalls of the connection elements 128, 132 have a rms surface roughness greater than about 1 micron.

Openings 406 can be formed, the openings 406 extending in the first direction 110 of thickness of the encapsulation 122, and optionally the second insulation layer 140 when present. The openings 406 expose at least portions of the second end surfaces 120 of the metal posts 114. The openings 406 can be formed by optical lithography followed by removal of materials of the encapsulation 122, and optionally the second insulation layer 140 when present, to expose portions of the second end surfaces 120 of the metal posts 114. Alternatively, the openings 406 can be formed by laser or mechanical drilling.
