Abstract: Semiconductor devices, and more particularly arrangements of fluorinated polymers with low dielectric loss for environmental protection in semiconductor devices are disclosed. Arrangements include conformal coatings or layers of fluorinated polymers that cover a semiconductor die on a package substrate of a semiconductor device. Such fluorinated polymer arrangements may also conformally coat various electrical connections for the semiconductor die, including wire bonds. Fluorinated polymers with low dielectric constants and low moisture permeability may thereby provide reduced moisture ingress in semiconductor devices while also reducing the impact of associated dielectric loss.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor package with a thermally enhanced molding compound. The disclosed semiconductor package includes a module carrier having an upper surface, a die formed over the upper surface of the module carrier, and a thermally enhanced molding compound component formed over the upper surface of module carrier to encapsulate the die. Herein, the thermally enhanced molding compound is formed from a molding compound mixed with a thermal additive and has no air pockets or voids. The thermal additive includes a number of carbon flakes or a number of carbon spherical particles. The thermal additive has a thermal conductivity larger than 450 W/m·K and an electrical resistivity larger than 90 ??.cm. In one embodiment, the thermal additive includes a number of graphene flakes, a number of graphene particles, a number of graphite flakes, or a number of graphite particles.

Abstract: A die attach system includes a substrate that has scored grooves or into which stud bumps on a die are then inserted. The additional surface area and flow of the stud bumps into the trenches creates a strong mechanical bond that may withstand repeated thermal cycling. In a further exemplary aspect, the substrate may be covered in a first material, the stud bumps may be made from the same first material, a die attachment material may be made from the same first material, and a bottom layer of the die may be made from the same material. This material homogeneity allows for more uniform expansion and contraction during thermal cycling, preventing failure of the mechanical bond.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to a microelectronic packaging and the manufacture thereof. A carrier may have a die attached to a top face thereof. A printed circuit board may be attached to the top face of the carrier. The printed circuit board may have a hole in which the die is disposed. A lid may be attached to the printed circuit board opposite the carrier so that the die is enclosed by the carrier, the printed circuit board, and the lid. The printed circuit board may form a seal ring around the die. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards apparatuses, systems, and methods for die attach coatings for semiconductor packages. In one embodiment, a die may be coupled with a substrate by a die attach and a coating may be applied to an edge of the die attach.
