  • Patent number: 7632719
    Abstract: A packaged semiconductor device (a wafer-level chip scale package) containing a conductive adhesive material as an electrical interconnect route between the semiconductor die and a patterned conductive substrate is described. The patterned conductive substrate acts not only as a substrate, but also as a redistribution layer that converts the dense pad layout of the die to a larger array configuration of the solder balls in the circuit board. Using the invention allows the formation of a lower priced chip scale package that also overcomes the restriction of the die size used in die-sized chip packages and the input-output pattern that can be required by the printed circuit board. Thus, the invention can provide a familiar pitch (i.e., interface) to the printed circuit board for any small die.
