Patent number: 9634285Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical device comprising an electrical unit (2) like an organic light emitting diode, a protection element (3) like a thin film encapsulation, which at least partly covers the electrical unit, for protecting the electrical unit against water and/or oxygen, and a detection layer (4) arranged between the protection element and the electrical unit or within the protection element, wherein the detection layer comprises organic material and is adapted such that a property of the detection layer is changed, if the detection layer is in contact with a contact gas usable for detecting a permeability of the protection element. This allows easily integrating a fast detection test for detecting a permeability of the protection element into a production process for producing the electrical device, i.e. a time consuming external permeability test may not be required.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2013Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Jens Meyer, Soren Hartmann

Patent number: 9177848Abstract: A semiconductor wafer contains a plurality of die with contact pads disposed on a first surface of each die. Metal vias are formed in trenches in the saw street guides and are surrounded by organic material. Traces connect the contact pads and metal vias. The metal vias can be half-circle vias or full-circle vias. The metal vias are surrounded by organic material. Redistribution layers (RDL) are formed on a second surface of the die opposite the first surface. The RDL and through-hole vias (THV) provide expanded interconnect flexibility to adjacent die. Repassivation layers are formed between the RDL on the second surface of the die for electrical isolation. The die are stackable and can be placed in a semiconductor package with other die. The RDL provide electrical interconnect to the adjacent die. Bond wires and solder bumps also provide electrical connection to the semiconductor die.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2012Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: STATS ChipPAC, Ltd.Inventors: Byung Tai Do, Heap Hoe Kuan, Linda Pei Ee Chua

Patent number: 9082780Abstract: A semiconductor device has a semiconductor die. An encapsulant is deposited around the semiconductor die. An interconnect structure having a conductive bump is formed over the encapsulant and semiconductor die. A mechanical support layer is formed over the interconnect structure and around the conductive bump. The mechanical support layer is formed over a corner of the semiconductor die and over a corner of the interconnect structure. An opening is formed through the encapsulant that extends to the interconnect structure. A conductive material is deposited within the opening to form a conductive through encapsulant via (TEV) that is electrically connected to the interconnect structure. A semiconductor device is mounted to the TEV and over the semiconductor die to form a package-on-package (PoP) device. A warpage balance layer is formed over the encapsulant opposite the interconnect structure.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2012Date of Patent: July 14, 2015Assignee: STATS ChipPAC, Ltd.Inventors: Yaojian Lin, Kang Chen, Yu Gu
