Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor device 30 and a molded upper heat sink 10. The heat sink has an interior surface 16 that faces the semiconductor device and an exterior surface 15 that is at least partially exposed to the ambient environment of the packaged device. An annular planar base 11 surrounds a raised or protruding central region 12. That region is supported above the plane of the base 11 by four sloped walls 13.1-13.4. The walls slope at an acute angle with respect to the planar annular base and incline toward the center of the upper heat sink 10. Around the outer perimeter of the annular base 11 are four support arms 18.1-18.4. The support arms are disposed at an obtuse angle with respect to the interior surface 16 of the planar annular base 11.

Abstract: A packaged semiconductor device (a wafer-level chip scale package) containing no UBM between a chip pad and an RDL pattern is described. As well, the device contains only a single non-polymeric insulation layer between the RDL pattern and the solder bump. The single non-polymeric insulation layer does not need high temperature curing processes and so does not induce thermal stresses into the device. As well, manufacturing costs are diminished by eliminating the UBM between the chip pad and the RDL pattern.

Abstract: A packaged semiconductor device (a wafer-level chip scale package) containing an adhesive film containing conductive particles sandwiched between a chip with Cu-based stud bumps and a substrate containing a bond pad. Some conductive particles are sandwiched between the stud bump and bond pad to create a conductive path. The wafer level chip scale package is manufactured without the steps of dispensing solder and reflowing the solder and can optionally eliminate the use of a redistribution trace. Using such a configuration increases the reliability of the wafer-level chip scale package.
