  • Patent number: 7906847
    Abstract: To provide a semiconductor device which can increase reliability with respect to external force, especially pressing force, while the circuit size or the capacity of memory is maintained. A pair of structure bodies each having a stack of fibrous bodies of an organic compound or an inorganic compound, which includes a plurality of layers, especially three or more layers, is impregnated with an organic resin, and an element layer provided between the pair of structure bodies are included. The element layer and the structure body can be fixed to each other by heating and pressure bonding. Further, a layer for fixing the element layer and the structure body may be provided. Alternatively, the structure body fixed to an element layer can be formed in such a way that after a plurality of fibrous bodies is stacked over the element layer, the fibrous bodies are impregnated with an organic resin.

  • Publication number: 20100308476
    Abstract: A semiconductor chip is temporarily fixed on a circuit board by having a thermosetting adhesive film in between. A sealing resin film is provided with a mold release film, and a thermosetting sealing resin layer, which is laminated on the mold release film and has a film thickness 0.5 to 2 times the thickness of the semiconductor chip. The sealing resin film is arranged on the semiconductor chip so that the thermosetting sealing resin layer faces the semiconductor chip. Heat is applied to the side of the circuit board, while applying pressure to the sealing resin film from the side of the mold release film by using a rubber head having a rubber hardness of 5-100 to bond the semiconductor chip on the circuit board. After sealing the semiconductor chip with the resin, the mold release film is peeled.

  • Patent number: 7829390
    Abstract: A manufacturing method for a packaging structure of SIP (system in package) includes the following steps. First step is providing a substrate having electronic devices thereon. Second step is covering the electronic devices by a mixture of a molding compound and a conductive polymer precursor so as to form a molding structure, wherein the substrate, the electronic devices and the molding structure forms a collective electronic module. Third step is separating the collective electronic module into a plurality of individual electronic modules. Fourth step is performing a doping step by using a doping element for transforming the conductive polymer precursor in the mixture into a conductive layer near the surface of the molding structure. Therefore, the manufacturing method is optimized for forming a shielding structure of the SIP module.
