Patents by Inventor Steve Joseph Bezuk

Steve Joseph Bezuk has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20200066964
    Abstract: A package may include a substrate and a semiconductor die with the substrate having a smaller width than the semiconductor die and encapsulated in a mold compound. In one example, the package may be a wafer level package that allows an external connection on the backside of the package to enable manufacturing in a panel or wafer form.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 9318405
    Abstract: A wafer level package device may include a molding compound that encapsulates a substrate, a back end of line and front end of line layer on the substrate and a passivation layer of a redistribution layer without encapsulating a metal layer on the passivation layer. The molding compound may eliminate sidewall chipping and cracking as well as reduce the need for back side lamination.

  • Patent number: 9209110
    Abstract: Some novel features pertain to an integrated device that includes a substrate, a first die coupled to the substrate, a first encapsulation layer coupled to the substrate and the first die, and a second encapsulation layer in the first encapsulation layer. The second encapsulation layer includes a set of wires configured to operate as vias. In some implementations, the integrated device includes a set of vias in the first encapsulation layer. In some implementations, the integrated device further includes a second die coupled to the substrate. In some implementations, the second encapsulation layer is positioned between the first die and the second die. In some implementations, the integrated device further includes a cavity in the first encapsulation layer, where the second encapsulation layer is positioned in the cavity. In some implementations, the cavity has a wall that is non-vertical. In some implementations, at least one of the wires is non-vertical.

  • Patent number: 9171782
    Abstract: Some implementations provide a semiconductor device (e.g., die) that includes a substrate, several metal layers and dielectric layers coupled to the substrate, a pad coupled to one of the plurality of metal layers, a first metal redistribution layer coupled to the pad, and a second metal redistribution layer coupled to the first metal redistribution layer. The second metal redistribution layer includes a cobalt tungsten phosphorous material. In some implementations, the first metal redistribution layer is a copper layer. In some implementations, the semiconductor device further includes a first underbump metallization (UBM) layer and a second underbump metallization (UBM) layer.
