  • Patent number: 7749866
    Abstract: A method for sawing a wafer includes the following steps. A wafer which has an active surface, a back surface and a plurality of longitudinal and transverse sawing lines is provided, wherein the sawing lines are located on the active surface so as to define a plurality of dies. A multiple-type tape is attached on the active surface of the wafer, wherein the multiple-type tape includes a first tape and a second tape, the second tape is located between the first tape and the active surface of the wafer, and the second tape is transparent. The back surface of the wafer is grinded. The first tape is removed. Finally, the wafer including the second tape is sawn along the sawing lines so as to separate the dies from one another.

  • Publication number: 20080045124
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a sawing method for a wafer. The sawing method of the invention comprises: (a) providing a wafer, the wafer having an active surface and a back surface, the active surface having a plurality of sawing lines; (b) coating a protection layer on the active surface and the sawing lines; (c) taping a grinding tape on a surface of the protection layer; (d) grinding the back surface of the wafer to thin the wafer; (e) removing the grinding tape; and (f) sawing the wafer to form a plurality of dice. Whereby, the problems of die cracking, die scratching, die contamination and peeling of the surface of the sawing lines can be avoided.

  • Publication number: 20070224780
    Abstract: A method for dicing a wafer is provided. A layer of adhesive material is applied to the back surface of the wafer so as to provide a sufficient mechanical strength for the wafer during dicing process thereby preventing the dice diced from the wafer from undue chipping on the back surfaces and the side surfaces.
