Abstract: A semiconductor device and a fabrication method thereof are provided. An electrically conductive elastic member is formed on a semiconductor die, and a conductive bump is formed on the elastic member. Accordingly, since the conductive bump is formed on the elastic member, or to protrude from a top surface of the elastic member, the height and thus diameter of the conductive bump is reduced allowing a fine pitch to be realized. Further, the elastic member is elastic and thus mitigates external impacts from being transferred from the conductive bump to the semiconductor die.

Abstract: A semiconductor device is disclosed. A conductive pillar for electrically connecting a semiconductor die to a circuit board may be gradually slimmed from the semiconductor die to the circuit board. A dummy conductive layer may be disposed between the semiconductor die and the conductive pillar. A width of an opening for opening a pattern of the circuit board may range from about 50% to 90% of the width of the lower end of the conductive pillar. Accordingly, a mechanical stress is prevented from being transmitted from the conductive pillar to the semiconductor die, or is absorbed by the dummy conductive layer, and thus, preventing cracks of the semiconductor die and a dielectric layer having a low dielectric constant.

Additionally, in each embodiment of the semiconductor device, the vertically stacked electronic components thereof may be covered with a package body which also partially covers the substrate.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided multiple embodiments of a reduced profile stackable semiconductor package. The semiconductor package comprises a substrate having at least one semiconductor die attached thereto. The semiconductor die is also electrically connected to the substrate by a plurality of conductive wires. A package body defining opposed top and bottom surfaces and a side surface at least partially encapsulates the substrate, the conductive wires and the semiconductor die. The package body is formed such that at least portions of the conductive wires are exposed in the top surface thereof. The package body may include a groove formed in the top surface thereof, with at least portions of the conductive wires being exposed in the groove.

Abstract: An electrical substrate useful for semiconductor packages is disclosed. The electrical substrate includes a core insulative layer. A first surface of the insulative layer has circuit patterns thereon. Some of the circuit patterns are stepped in their heights from the first surface, in that a first subportion of the circuit pattern, including a ball land, extends further from the first surface than a second subportion of the same circuit pattern, and also extends further from the first surface than a ball land of other circuit patterns. Accordingly, solder balls fused to the ball lands of the stepped circuit patterns extend further from the first surface than same-size solder balls fused to the ball lands of the non-stepped circuit patterns, thereby circumventing electrical connectivity problems that may arise from warpage of the electrical substrate.
