  • Publication number: 20240136291
    Abstract: Semiconductor devices and methods of forming the same are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a workpiece having a redistribution layer disposed over and electrically coupled to an interconnect structure. In some embodiments, the method further includes patterning the redistribution layer to form a recess between and separating a first conductive feature and a second conductive feature of the redistribution layer, where corners of the first conductive feature and the second conductive feature are defined adjacent to and on either side of the recess. The method further includes depositing a first dielectric layer over the first conductive feature, the second conductive feature, and within the recess. The method further includes depositing a nitride layer over the first dielectric layer. In some examples, the method further includes removing portions of the nitride layer disposed over the corners of the first conductive feature and the second conductive feature.

  • Publication number: 20240113032
    Abstract: Interconnect structure packages (e.g., through silicon vias (TSV) packages, through interlayer via (TIV) packages) may be pre-manufactured as opposed to forming TIVs directly on a carrier substrate during a manufacturing process for a semiconductor die package at backend packaging facility. The interconnect structure packages may be placed onto a carrier substrate during manufacturing of a semiconductor device package, and a semiconductor die package may be placed on the carrier substrate adjacent to the interconnect structure packages. A molding compound layer may be formed around and in between the interconnect structure packages and the semiconductor die package.

  • Patent number: 8754871
    Abstract: The present invention provides a capacitive touch sensing device and a scanning method thereof. The present invention divides a scanning procedure of an electrode matrix into two stages. First, it scans broadly for determining whether the potential signal of at least one driving line of the electrode matrix is changed or not. After that, the present invention is only directed to the driving line which the potential signal is changed to scan in detail, to determine whether the potential signal of each coupling node on the driving line is changed or not. Therefore, the present invention can achieve the purpose of improving sensing efficiency of the capacitive touch sensing device.
