LED chips or other semiconductor devices, laser diodes, etc., can be mounted on the circuit board and located at positions corresponding to bottoms of the window holes. A thermosetting resin can be filled in the window holes for encapsulating the LED chips, etc. The surface mount devices can then be produced by dicing the circuit board.

Abstract: An adhesive layer containing a photo-curing adhesive and a thermosetting adhesive is formed on a semiconductor wafer in which a plurality of semiconductor elements are formed. The adhesive layer and the semiconductor wafer are adhered together by selectively exposing the adhesive layer to light and curing the photo-curing adhesive contained in the adhesive layer on the peripheral portion of each semiconductor element. By developing the photo-curing adhesive, the adhesive layer in an area that has not been exposed is removed. Whether the pattern of the adhesive layer is satisfactory or not is determined for each semiconductor element. A lid part is placed on the adhesive layer of the semiconductor element determined to be satisfactory, and the adhesive layer and the lid part are adhered together by heating the adhesive layer and causing the thermosetting adhesive contained in the adhesive layer to exhibit adhesive properties.

The substrate is laminated with a sacrificial film, a partially cured resin is formed between the substrate and the sacrificial film. And then, an aperture is routed through the substrate, the partially cured resin, and the sacrificial film. The aperture is located corresponding to the region so that the substrate has a die-cavity sidewall formed inside the aperture. Thereafter, the sacrificial film is removed to expose the partially cured resin on the substrate so that the substrate with a die-cavity sidewall can have good adhesion.

Abstract: A method for joining lead frames in a chip stack package or a package stack, a chip stack package, and a method of forming a chip stack package. A joining mediator is formed on joining portions of at least one lead frame. The joining mediator has an anti-oxidation property and an inter-metallic diffusion property, and may be formed of gold wires, gold bumps, gold bars, solder bumps, solder, or solder bars. By clamping or compressing the lead frames under heat and pressure, the joining mediator forms an inter-metallic joint layer that reliably interconnects the lead frames at the joining portions.
