Patent number: 11437276Abstract: A method of wafer dicing includes singulating dies from a semiconductor wafer. The method further includes depositing a metal layer on back sides of the singulated dies, wherein a portion of the metal layer continues beyond the backs sides of the singulated dies to deposit at least partially on lateral sides of the singulated dies. A packaged die includes a semiconductor die and a metal outer layer deposited on the back side of the semiconductor die and on a portion of the lateral side of the semiconductor die nearest the back side. The packaged die further includes a substrate mounted to the back side of the semiconductor die a die attach material that bonds the substrate to the metal outer layer deposited on the semiconductor die, wherein the metal outer layer and the die attach material surround the back edge of the semiconductor die.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2020Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: NXP USA, Inc.Inventors: Jaynal A Molla, Lakshminarayan Viswanathan, David Abdo, Colby Greg Rampley, Fernando A.

Patent number: 10861764Abstract: Microelectronic systems and components having integrated heat dissipation posts are disclosed, as are methods for fabricating such microelectronic systems and components. In various embodiments, the microelectronic system includes a substrate having a frontside, a socket cavity, and inner cavity sidewalls defining the socket cavity. A microelectronic component is seated on the frontside of the substrate such that a heat dissipation post, which projects from the microelectronic component, is received in the socket cavity and separated from the inner cavity sidewalls by a peripheral clearance. The microelectronic system further includes a bond layer contacting the inner cavity sidewalls, contacting an outer peripheral portion of the heat dissipation post, and at least partially filling the peripheral clearance.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2019Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: NXP USA, Inc.Inventors: Lakshminarayan Viswanathan, Mahesh K. Shah, Lu Li, David Abdo, Geoffrey Tucker, Carl Emil D'Acosta, Jaynal A. Molla, Justin Eugene Poarch, Paul Hart

Patent number: 10269678Abstract: Microelectronic systems having integrated heat dissipation posts are disclosed, as are methods for fabricating such microelectronic systems. In various embodiments, the method includes the step or process of obtaining a microelectronic component from which a heat dissipation post projects. The microelectronic component is placed or seated on a substrate, such as a multilayer printed circuit board, having a socket cavity therein. The heat dissipation post is received in the socket cavity as the microelectronic component is seated on the substrate. Concurrent with or after seating the microelectronic component, the microelectronic component and the heat dissipation post are bonded to the substrate. In certain embodiments, the heat dissipation post may be dimensioned or sized such that, when the microelectronic component is seated on the substrate, the heat dissipation post occupies a volumetric majority of the socket cavity.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2017Date of Patent: April 23, 2019Assignee: NXP USA, Inc.Inventors: Lakshminarayan Viswanathan, Mahesh K.

Publication number: 20180082915Abstract: Air cavity packages and methods for producing air cavity packages containing sintered bonded components, multipart window frames, and/or other unique structural features are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for fabricating an air cavity package includes the step or process of forming a first metal particle-containing precursor layer between a base flange and a window frame positioned over the base flange. A second metal particle-containing precursor layer is further formed between the base flange and a microelectronic device positioned over the base flange. The metal particle-containing precursor layers are sintered substantially concurrently at a maximum processing temperature less than melt point(s) of metal particles within the layers to produce a first sintered bond layer from the first precursor layer joining the window frame to the base flange and to produce a second sintered bond layer from the second precursor layer joining the microelectronic device to the base flange.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2016Publication date: March 22, 2018Applicant: FREESCALE SEMICONDUCTOR INC.Inventors: LAKSHMINARAYAN VISWANATHAN, JAYNAL A.
