  • Publication number: 20170148761
    Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor package and a method of fabricating the same, including: placing in a groove of a carrier a semiconductor element having opposing active and non-active surfaces, and side surfaces abutting the active surface and the non-active surface; applying an adhesive material in the groove and around a periphery of the side surfaces of the semiconductor element; forming a dielectric layer on the adhesive material and the active surface of the semiconductor element; forming on the dielectric layer a circuit layer electrically connected to the semiconductor element; and removing a first portion of the carrier below the groove to keep a second portion of the carrier on a side wall of the groove intact for the second portion to function as a supporting member. The present invention does not require formation of a silicon interposer, and therefore the overall cost of a final product is much reduced.

  • Patent number: 9515039
    Abstract: A substrate structure is provided, which includes a substrate body having a plurality of conductive pads, and a plurality of first conductive bumps and a plurality of second conductive bumps disposed on the conductive pads. Each of the second conductive bumps is less in width than each of the first conductive bumps, and is of a height with respect to the substrate body greater than a height of each of the first conductive bumps with respect to the substrate body. Therefore, the height difference between the first pre-solder layer and the second pre-solder layer after a reflow process can be compensated, and the first conductive bumps and the second conductive bumps thus have a uniform height.

  • Publication number: 20160233194
    Abstract: A package structure is provided, which includes: a dielectric layer having opposite first and second surfaces; a circuit sub-layer formed in the dielectric layer; an electronic element disposed on the first surface of the dielectric layer and electrically connected to the circuit sub-layer; a plurality of conductive posts formed on the first surface of the dielectric layer and electrically connected to the circuit sub-layer; and an encapsulant formed on the first surface of the dielectric layer and encapsulating the electronic element and the conductive posts. Upper surfaces of the conductive posts are exposed from the encapsulant so as to allow another electronic element to be disposed on the conductive posts and electrically connected to the circuit sub-layer through the conductive posts, thereby overcoming the conventional drawback that another electronic element can only be disposed on a lower side of a package structure and improving the functionality of the package structure.

  • Patent number: 9269602
    Abstract: A fabrication method of a wafer level semiconductor package includes: forming on a carrier a first dielectric layer having first openings exposing portions of the carrier; forming a circuit layer on the first dielectric layer, a portion of the circuit layer being formed in the first openings; forming on the first dielectric layer and the circuit layer a second dielectric layer having second openings exposing portions of the circuit layer; forming conductive bumps in the second openings; mounting a semiconductor component on the conductive bumps; forming an encapsulant for encapsulating the semiconductor component; and removing the carrier to expose the circuit layer. By detecting the yield rate of the circuit layer before mounting the semiconductor component, the invention avoids discarding good semiconductor components together with packages as occurs in the prior art, thereby saving the fabrication cost and improving the product yield.
