  • Patent number: 7160756
    Abstract: A process for packaging semiconductor devices for flip chip and wire bond applications, wherein specific materials of the semiconductor devices are protected during device processing sequences and dicing procedures, has been developed. After definition of copper interconnect structures surrounded by a low k insulator layer, a protective, first photosensitive polymer layer comprised with a low dielectric constant is applied. After definition of openings in the first photosensitive polymer layer exposing portions of the top surface of the copper interconnect structures, a dicing lane opening is defined in materials located between copper interconnect structures. Conductive redistribution shapes are formed on the copper interconnect structures exposed in the openings in the first photosensitive polymer layer, followed by application of a protective, second photosensitive polymer layer.
