  • Publication number: 20230402417
    Abstract: Some implementations described herein provide a semiconductor package including an integrated circuit die mounted to an interposer using connection structures. An underfill material between the integrated circuit die and the interposer includes shaped fillets that are below a plane corresponding to a bottom surface of the integrated circuit die. The underfill material including the shaped fillets reduces a likelihood of stresses and/or strains that damage a mold compound from transferring to the mold compound from the underfill material, the integrated circuit die, and/or the interposer. In this way, a quality and reliability of the semiconductor package including the underfill material with the shaped fillets is reduced. By improving the quality and reliability of the semiconductor package, a yield of the semiconductor package may increase to decrease a cost of the semiconductor package.
