  • Patent number: 9190339
    Abstract: A method for applying a pressure-sensitive gel material during assembly of an array of pre-singulated packaged semiconductor devices. In the method, pressure-sensitive gel material is dispensed onto a first semiconductor device of the array, where the first semiconductor device is disposed within a first cavity. A first curing process is performed to partially cure the pressure-sensitive gel material in the first cavity. Pressure-sensitive gel material is then dispensed onto another semiconductor device of the array, where the other semiconductor device is disposed within another cavity. The first curing process is initiated before the dispensing of the pressure-sensitive gel material inside of the other cavity is completed and initially cures pressure-sensitive gel material for fewer than all of the pre-singulated packaged semiconductor devices of the array.

  • Patent number: 9171786
    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) die has an active side and an inactive side, opposite the active side. A recess is formed within the interior of the inactive side and extends partially through the integrated circuit towards the active side. The IC die is part of a packaged IC device, where the die is attached to a package component such as a lead frame, substrate, or another die, using die attach adhesive that fills the recess, thereby providing a more reliable bond between the IC die and the package component.

  • Patent number: 9138861
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a two-phase cleaning element that enhances polishing pad cleaning so as to prevent wafer scratches and contamination in chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) processes. In some embodiments, the two-phase pad cleaning element comprises a first cleaning element and a second cleaning element configured to successively operate upon a section of a CMP polishing pad. The first cleaning element comprises a megasonic cleaning jet configured to utilize cavitation energy to dislodge particles embedded in the CMP polishing pad without damaging the surface of the polishing pad. The second cleaning element is configured to apply a high pressure mist, comprising two fluids, to remove by-products from the CMP polishing pad. By using megasonic cleaning to dislodge embedded particles a two-fluid mist to flush away by-products (e.g., including the dislodged embedded particles), the two-phase pad cleaning element enhances polishing pad cleaning.

  • Patent number: 9136399
    Abstract: A semiconductor device package is assembled using a jig that alters the shape of gel material disposed in a cavity in the package. In one embodiment, a jig having a concave bottom surface is inserted onto uncured gel material disposed within a cavity in a housing of the package to change a top surface of the gel from having a concave shape to a convex shape. The gel is then cured with the jig in place. When the jig is subsequently removed, the cured gel retains the convex shape, which helps to avoid any bond wires from being exposed. The re-shaped gel material reduces internal stresses during thermal cycling and can therefore reduce permanent damage to the package otherwise resulting from such thermal cycling.

  • Patent number: 9105503
    Abstract: A package-on-package device includes memory chips side-by-side on a package substrate. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce a thickness of a semiconductor package. Further, data and command pads of a logic chip may be located to be adjacent to data and command pads of the memory chips. Accordingly, a routing distance between pads can be contracted and thus signal delivery speed can be improved. This makes it possible to improve an operation speed of the device.
