Description

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present disclosure generally relates to semiconductor package technology, and particularly to a package on package structure and a method for manufacturing the package on package structure.

2. Description of Related Art

Among the existing package structures for semiconductor, a package on package structure is one of the well-known package structures.

A typical package on package structure includes an upper package device, a lower package device, and a number of solder balls sandwiched between the upper package and the lower package device for electrically connecting the upper package device and the lower package device. However, because the pitch of the conventional solder ball is between 200 micrometers and 300 micrometers, highness of the package on package structure is higher. In addition, the temperature of the conventional package on package structure rises during thermal cycling test or actual operation, thermal stresses would easily induce in the package on package structure due to the differences of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) in different materials in the package on package structure, especially easily inducing warpage to the lower package device and the upper package device caused poor joints such as missing solder or cold soldering or breaking of solder balls leading to poor reliability of the package on package structure.

What is needed, therefore, is a package on package structure and a method for manufacturing the package on package structure to overcome the above-described problems.

In the present embodiment, the package body 10 may be manufactured by the following steps.

First, as FIG. 1 shows, the first circuit substrate 14 is provided. The first circuit substrate 14 may be a single-sided circuit board, a double-sided circuit board, or a multi-layered circuit board. The first circuit substrate 14 includes a first base 141, a first electrically conductive pattern 143, a second electrically conductive pattern 145, a first solder mask 147, and a second solder mask 149.

That is, the first semiconductor chip 15 is arranged on the first circuit substrate 14, and is electrically connected to the first electrical contact pads 1451 using a wire bonding process, or using a surface mounted process, or using a flip chip process, thereby electrically connecting the first semiconductor chip 15 to the first circuit substrate 14. The first electrical contact pads 1451 correspond to the first solder pads 1431, and each first electrical contact pad 1451 is aligned with the corresponding first solder pad 1431. Each first electrical contact pad 1451 is electrically connected to the corresponding first solder pad 1431 using a first plated hole 142.

That is, the second semiconductor chip 16 is arranged on the first circuit substrate 14, and is electrically connected to the second electrical contact pads 1453 using a wire bonding process, or using a surface mounted process, or using a flip chip process, thereby electrically connecting the second semiconductor chip 16 to the first circuit substrate 14. The second electrical contact pads 1453 corresponds to the third solder pads 1432, and each second electrical contact pad 1453 is aligned with the corresponding third solder pad 1432. Each second electrical contact pad 1453 is electrically connected to the corresponding third solder pad 1432 using a second plated hole 144.

The first solder mask 147 covers at least part of first electrically conductive pattern 143, and the upper surface 141a which is exposed at the first electrically conductive pattern 143. The first solder mask 147 protects the electrically conductive traces 1433 of the first electrically conductive pattern 143 from damage. At least part of each of the first solder pads 1431 and the third solder pads 1433 is exposed at the first solder mask 147. The second solder mask 149 covers at least part of the second electrically conductive pattern 145, and the lower surface 141b which is exposed at the second electrically conductive pattern 145. The second solder mask 149 protects the electrically conductive traces of the first electrically conductive pattern 143 from damage. At least part of each of the first electrical contact pads 1451 and the second electrical contact pads 1453 are exposed at the first solder mask 147.

Second, as FIGS. 2 to 5 show, a first electrically conductive post 133 perpendicular to a first solder pad 1431 is formed on each first solder pad 1431, a second electrically conductive post 135 perpendicular to a third solder pad 1433 is formed on each third solder pad 1433, thereby obtaining the first electrically conductive posts 133 and the second electrically conductive posts 135. Each first electrically conductive post 133 is in contact with and electrically connected to the corresponding first solder pad 1431. Each second electrically conductive post 135 is in contact with and electrically connected to the corresponding third solder pad 1433.

In the present embodiment, the first electrically conductive posts 133 and the second electrically conductive posts 135 are manufactured by the following steps.

First, as FIG. 2 shows, a photoresist layer 130 is formed on a side of the upper surface 141a of the first circuit substrate 14. The photoresist layer 130 covers the first solder pads 1431, the third solder pads 1433, and the surface of the first circuit substrate 14 which is exposed at both the first solder pads 1431 and the third solder pads 1433. A thickness of part of the photoresist layer 131 which corresponds to the first solder pads 1431 and the third solder pads 1433, is equal to a length of the first electrically conductive post 133.

Second, as FIG. 3 shows, the photoresist layer 130 is selectively exposed and developed to form a photoresist layer 130 which is patterned, thereby exposing at least part of each of the first solder pads 1431 and the third solder pads 1433.

Third, as FIG. 4 shows, a first electrically conductive post 133 is formed on each first solder pad 1431 using an electroplating process, and a second electrically conductive post 135 is formed on each third solder pad 1433 by the same process.

Finally, as FIG. 4 shows, the patterned photoresist layer 130 is removed from the circuit substrate 14, thereby obtaining the first electrically conductive posts 133 and the third electrically conductive posts 135.

Third, as FIG. 6 shows, a molding compound layer 13a is laminated onto a side of the solder mask 147 of the first circuit substrate 14 using a molding process. The molding compound layer 13a covers the first electrically conductive posts 133, the second electrically conductive posts 135, and the surface of the solder mask 147 of the first circuit substrate 14 which is exposed at both the first electrically conductive posts 133 and the second electrically conductive posts 135. In detail, the molding compound layer 13a has a first surface 131a and an opposite second surface 131b. After lamination, the first surface 131a is adhered to the solder mask 147 of the first circuit substrate 14.

In the present embodiment, the molding compound layer 13a defines a receiving hole 1311. The receiving hole 1311 passes through the first surface 131a and the second surface 131b. The first electrically conductive posts 133 surround the receiving hole 1311. The second electrically conductive posts 135 surround the first electrically conductive posts 133. In the present embedment, a material of the molding compound layer 13a is sheet molding compound, and the first surface 131a is parallel with the upper surface 141a.

Four, as FIG. 7 shows, the molding compound layer 13a is ground using a grinding process, such that the distal ends of both the first and second electrically conductive posts 133, 135 which are furthest from the first circuit substrate 14 are exposed at the ground molding compound layer 13a. In the present embodiment, the distal end surfaces of both the first and second electrically conductive posts 133, 135 which are furthest from the first circuit substrate 14 are coplanar with the surface of the ground molding compound layer 13a furthest from the first circuit substrate 14. The ground molding compound layer 13a is considered as the substrate main body 131. The first surface 131a of the molding compound layer 13a is considered as the first surface of the substrate main body 131. The surface of the ground molding compound layer 13a furthest from the first circuit substrate 14 is considered as the second surface 131c of the substrate main body 131. The receiving hole 1311 is considered as the receiving hole of the substrate main body 131. The substrate main body 131, the first electrically conductive posts 133, and the second electrically conductive posts 135 cooperatively constitute the connection substrate 13.

Five, as FIG. 8 shows, a solder paste 137 is printed on the distal end of each of the first and second electrically conductive posts 133, 135 furthest from the first circuit substrate 14 using a printing method.

Finally, as FIG. 9 shows, the first semiconductor chip 15 and the second semiconductor chip 16 are arranged on the side of the first circuit substrate 14 furthest from the connection substrate 13, and the first semiconductor chip 15 is sandwiched between the second semiconductor chip 16 and the circuit substrate 14. The first semiconductor chip 15 may be a memory chip, a logic chip, or a digital chip. In the present embodiment, the first semiconductor chip 15 is a logic chip. The first semiconductor chip 15 is adhered to the surface of the second solder mask 149 furthest from the first base 141 via a first insulation adhesive layer 18, and is electrically connected to the circuit substrate 14 using a wire bonding process. The first semiconductor chip 15 includes a plurality of third electrical contact pads 151 corresponding to the first electrical contact pads 1451. Each third electrical contact pad 151 is electrically connected to the corresponding first electrical contact pad 1451 using a first electrically conductive wire 153 (e.g. gold wire). The second semiconductor chip 16 may be a memory chip, a logic chip, or a digital chip. In the present embodiment, the second semiconductor chip 16 is a memory chip. The second semiconductor chip 16 is adhered to the surface of the first semiconductor chip 15 furthest from the first circuit substrate 14 using a second insulation adhesive layer 19, and is electrically connected to the circuit substrate 14 using a wire bonding process. The second semiconductor chip 16 includes a plurality of fourth electrical contact pads 161 corresponding to the second electrical contact pads 1453. Each fourth electrical contact pad 161 is electrically connected to the corresponding second electrical contact pad 1453 using a second electrically conductive wire 163 (e.g. gold wire).

Preferably, in order to prevent signal interference between the first and second semiconductor chips 15, 16, a separation sheet 12 is sandwiched between the first and second semiconductor chips 15, 16. That is, the separation sheet 12 is arranged in the second insulation adhesive layer 19. In other embodiments, the separation sheet 12 may be omitted. Then, the first package adhesive 17 is arranged on the side of the circuit substrate 14 furthest from the connection substrate 13 to obtain the package body 10. The first circuit substrate 14, the first semiconductor chip 15, the third semiconductor chip 16 and the first package adhesive 17 cooperatively constitute the first package device 11. The first package adhesive 17 covers the first semiconductor chip 15, the third semiconductor chip 16, and the surface of the first circuit substrate 14 exposed at the first and third semiconductor chips 15, 16, thereby protecting the first and third semiconductor chips 15, 16 from damage. A material of the first package adhesive 17 is epoxy molding compound. In the present embodiment, an area of a cross-section of the first package adhesive 17 taken in a plane parallel with the upper surface 141a of the first circuit substrate 14 is the same as an area of a cross-section of the first circuit substrate 14 taken in a plane parallel with the upper surface 141a of the first circuit substrate 14.
