Abstract: Connecting elements on semiconductor chips for semiconductor components and methods for producing connecting elements provide electrical connections between contact areas of a semiconductor chip and contact pads of a superordinate circuit board. The connecting elements have a bent metal strip with two metal limbs with flattened limb ends. One of the two limb ends is electrically connected to the contact areas, while the second limb end is elastically supported on the top side of the semiconductor chip.

Abstract: A covering element for covering subassemblies having a substrate and at least one component disposed thereon and to be protected, in particular, a semiconductor component, includes at least one substantially planar area for covering the at least one component to be protected, one or more moldings serving for mechanical support, at least one of the moldings being in contact with the substrate and/or a supporting element disposed on the substrate after the covering element has been mounted on the subassembly, and the planar area and the molding being disposed such that, in the event of pressure on the covering element, no displacement of the at least one component (4) to be protected occurs.

Abstract: The invention relates to an FBGA arrangement, comprising a substrate on which at least one chip is chip-bonded face-down, which has a central row of bonding pads connected to contact islands (landing pads) on the substrate by a bonding channel in the substrate via wire bridges, which substrate, for its part, is provided with soldering balls—arranged in an array—for contact connection to a printed circuit board, and the contact islands and the soldering balls being connected to one another via a rewiring of the substrate. The preferred embodiment of the invention is intended to provide an FBGA arrangement which supports the center pad row technology and at the same time has low electrical parasitics.

Abstract: The electronic component has semiconductor chips that are stacked on one another. On their active top sides, the chips having interconnects for rewiring to contact areas through contacts formed on the sawn edges of the semiconductor chip. The electronic components of overlying and underlying semiconductor chips are thus connected to one another via the through contacts.

Abstract: An electronic component includes stacked electronic elements with external contacts. The external contacts are connected to contact terminal pads of an interconnect layer disposed on an isolating body. This isolating body extends over underlying side edges of a further electronic element, and its interconnect layer is connected to another interconnect layer of the stack via its external contact surfaces.

Abstract: A method of stacking semiconductor chips includes providing four semiconductor chips that each include a top surface with central bond pads. Each of the bond pads is electrically coupled to second bond pads located in a peripheral portion of the semiconductor chip through a conductive layer. The first and the second semiconductor chips are arranged alongside one another on a carrier substrate. The second bond pads from the first and second semiconductor chips are bonded to corresponding landing pads on the substrate. The third semiconductor chip is then stacked over the first semiconductor chip and the fourth semiconductor chip over the second semiconductor chip. The second bond pads of the third and fourth semiconductor chips can then be bonded to contact pads of the substrate. The substrate can then be separated into a first stack that includes the first and third semiconductor chips and a second stack that includes the second and fourth semiconductor chips.

The placement system has a substrate holding device for receiving the substrate, a wafer holding device above the substrate holding device serving for receiving a wafer holding frame, and a vacuum forceps holding device arranged above the wafer holding device. The wafer holding frame can receive a complete semiconductor wafer divided into electronic components.
