Abstract: Provided is an adhesive composition for a semiconductor device. For example, the adhesive composition comprises a binder resin and a silicon carbide filler. The silicon carbide filler has relatively high thermal conductivity and a relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). Accordingly, the adhesive composition containing the silicon carbide filler exhibits improved heat dissipation performance and electrical performance due to high thermal conductivity and shows inhibition of delamination or cracking of semiconductor devices due to low CTE. The silicon carbide has high thermal conductivity, but is electrically non-conductive. Therefore, an electrically conductive adhesive can be obtained by additional incorporation of a silver (Ag) filler into the binder resin.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided multiple embodiments of a semiconductor package including two or more semiconductor dies which are electrically connected to an underlying substrate through the use of conductive wires, some of which may be fully or partially encapsulated by an adhesive or insulating layer of the package. In a basic embodiment of the present invention, the semiconductor package comprises a substrate having a conductive pattern disposed thereon. Electrically connected to the conductive pattern of the substrate are first and second semiconductor dies. The first semiconductor die and a portion of the substrate are covered by an adhesive layer. The second semiconductor die, the adhesive layer and a portion of the substrate are in turn covered by a package body of the semiconductor package.
