  • Patent number: 10553453
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the disclosure are directed to a semiconductor package and a method for fabrication of the semiconductor package. Further, disclosed herein are systems and methods that are directed to using a photoimagable dielectric (PID) layer with substantially similar mechanical properties as that of a mold material. The disclosure can be used, for example, in the context of bumpless laserless embedded substrate structures (BLESS) technology for wafer/panel level redistribution layer (RDL) and/or fan-out packaging applications. The disclosed embodiments may reduce the need for multiple dry resist film (DFR) lamination steps during various processing steps for semiconductor packaging and can also facilitate multiple layer counts due to the availability of thin PID materials.

  • Publication number: 20190244922
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for providing effective connectivity with surface level microbumps on an integrated circuit package substrate. In an embodiment, different metals are variously electroplated to form a microbump which extends through a surface-level dielectric of a substrate to a seed layer including copper. The microbump includes nickel and tin, wherein the nickel aids in mitigating an absorption of seed layer copper. In another embodiment, the microbump has a mass fraction of tin, or a mass fraction of nickel, that is different in various regions along a height of the microbump.
