  • Patent number: 9171814
    Abstract: To improve coupling reliability in flip chip bonding of a semiconductor device. By using, in the fabrication of a semiconductor device, a wiring substrate in which a wiring that crosses an opening area of a solder resist film on the upper surface of the wiring substrate has, on one side of the wiring, a bump electrode and, on the other side, a plurality of wide-width portions having no bump electrode thereon, a solder on the wiring can be dispersed to each of the wide-width portions during reflow treatment in a solder precoating step. Such a configuration makes it possible to reduce a difference in height between the solder on each of terminals and the solder on each of the wide-width portions and to enhance the coupling reliability in flip chip bonding.

  • Publication number: 20140008798
    Abstract: A technique capable of improving reliability of a semiconductor device is provided. In the present invention, as a wiring board on which a semiconductor chip is mounted, a build-up wiring board is not used but a through wiring board THWB is used. In this manner, in the present invention, the through wiring board formed of only a core layer is used, so that it is not required to consider a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between a build-up layer and the core layer, and besides, it is not required either to consider the electrical disconnection of a fine via formed in the build-up layer because the build-up layer does not exist. As a result, according to the present invention, the reliability of the semiconductor device can be improved while a cost is reduced.
