  • Patent number: 9252123
    Abstract: A multi-chip package may include a first semiconductor chip, a second semiconductor chip, a first stud bump, a first nail head bonding bump, a second stud bump, and a first conductive wire. The first semiconductor chip may have a first bonding pad. The second semiconductor chip may be stacked on the first semiconductor chip so the first bonding pad remains exposed. The second semiconductor chip may have a second bonding pad. The first stud bump may be formed on the first bonding pad. The first nail head bonding bump may be formed on the first stud bump, with one end of a first conductive wire formed between the two. The second stud bump may be formed on the second bonding pad, with another end of the first conductive wire formed between the two. An electrical connection test may be performed on each of the wire bonding processes.

  • Publication number: 20120056178
    Abstract: A multi-chip package may include a package substrate, a plurality of semiconductor chips and conductive connecting members. The semiconductor chips may be sequentially stacked on the package substrate. Each of the semiconductor chips may include a signal pad and a test pad. The conductive wires may be electrically connected between the signal pad of an upper semiconductor chip among the semiconductor chips and the package substrate via the test pad of a lower semiconductor chip under the upper semiconductor chip. The test pad may be converted into the dummy pad by cutting a fuse.
