Abstract: Disclosed are a wafer level stacked package and its manufacturing method. As one example, in such a wafer level stacked package, a first semiconductor die is electrically connected to an upper surface of a substrate and a second semiconductor die is electrically connected to a lower surface of the substrate. That is, with respect to one substrate, semiconductor dies can be stacked on upper and lower surfaces of the substrate. Also, underfill is formed between the respective semiconductor dies and the substrate, thereby enhancing bonding forces between the respective semiconductor dies and the substrate. In addition to stacking the semiconductor dies, packages can be stacked with each other. That is, it is possible to stack a plurality of completed wafer level packages with each other in an up-and-down direction.

Abstract: The surface of a solder ball and a conductive wire for a semiconductor package are coated with a predetermined colorant. Various colorants may be used according to the diameter and metal composition of the solder ball and the conductive wire. The colorant is formed by mixing organic compound and dye of a predetermined color. Examples of organic compounds excellent in physicochemical bonding with metal include benzotriazole, alkylimidazole and benzimidazole. The solder ball is fabricated by coating an organic compound of a predetermined color on the surface of a typical solder ball. The conductive wire is fabricated by coating an organic compound of a predetermined color on a general conductive wire between heat process and winding. Moreover, the solder ball is evaporated in a reflowing step after bumped via flux and the conductive wire is evaporated in a wire bonding step so that the solder ball and the conductive wire return to their unique colors.
