    advanced packaging

    Here we take a look at some of the strategies that enable next-generation advanced packaging, including wafer-level packaging, bumping, redistribution layers, fan out, and through-silicon vias. These are great examples of applying front-end wafer manufacturing technologies (such as deposition, etch, and clean) to back-end processing.

    在这里,我们将探讨实现下一代高级封装的一些策略,包括晶圆级封装,凸点,重新分布层,扇出和硅通孔。这些都是将前端晶圆制造技术(例如沉积,蚀刻和清洁)应用于后端处理的绝佳示例。

    Wafer-Level Packaging
    In conventional packaging, the finished wafer is cut up, or diced, into individual chips, which are then bonded and encapsulated. Wafer-level packaging (WLP), as its name implies, involves packaging the die while it is still on the wafer: protective layers may be bonded to the top and/or bottom of the wafer, then electrical connections are prepared and the wafer is diced into individual chips. To provide a baking analogy, traditional packaging is similar to frosting individual cupcakes, while WLP is like frosting a whole cake and then slicing it into pieces. Because the sides are not coated with WLP, the resulting packaged chip is small in size (roughly the same size as the chip itself), an important consideration in footprint-sensitive devices such as our smartphones. Other advantages include streamlined manufacturing and the ability to test chip functionality before dicing.

    在常规包装中,将完成的晶片切割或切成单个芯片,然后将其粘合和封装。顾名思义,晶圆级封装(WLP)涉及在裸片仍在晶圆上时对其进行封装:可以将保护层粘合到晶圆的顶部和/或底部,然后准备电连接,并制备晶圆。切成单个芯片。为了提供类似的烘焙效果,传统的包装类似于给单个纸杯蛋糕上糖霜,而WLP就像是先将整个蛋糕上糖霜然后切成小块。由于侧面未涂WLP,因此封装后的芯片尺寸较小(与芯片本身的尺寸大致相同),这是对足迹敏感型设备(例如我们的智能手机)的重要考虑因素。

    Bumping and Flip Chips
    One of the simplest electrical connections between a chip and the circuit board can be made with small balls of electrically conductive material, called bumps. A bumped die can then be flipped upside down and aligned so that the bumps connect with matching pads on the board. Flip chip bonding has several advantages over traditional wire bonding, including small package size and greater device speed.

    Bumping can be performed by extending conventional wafer fabrication methods. After the chips are made, underbump metallization (UBM) pads are created to connect to the chip circuitry, and bumps are then deposited on the pads. Solder is the most commonly used bumping material, although alternative materials – such as gold, copper, or cobalt – can also be used depending on the application. For high-density interconnects or fine-pitch applications, copper pillars can be used. While solder bumps spread during the joining process, copper pillars retain their shape, which allows them to be placed much more closely together.

    凸块和倒装芯片芯片和电路板之间最简单的电连接之一可以由称为凸块的小导电材料球制成。然后可以将颠倒的管芯上下颠倒并对齐,以使颠簸与板上的匹配焊盘相连。与传统的引线键合相比,倒装芯片键合具有多个优势,包括较小的封装尺寸和更高的器件速度。

    可以通过扩展常规的晶片制造方法来执行凸块。制作完芯片后,会创建凸块下金属化(UBM)焊盘以连接到芯片电路,然后在焊盘上沉积凸点。焊料是最常用的凸点材料,尽管根据应用场合也可以使用其他材料,例如金,铜或钴。对于高密度互连或细间距应用,可以使用铜柱。尽管在连接过程中焊料凸块扩散,但铜柱仍保持其形状,这使它们可以更紧密地放置在一起。

    Redistribution Layers
    Relocating, or redistributing, contact points is another technology that can be done efficiently at the wafer level. A redistribution layer (RDL) is used to reroute connections to desired locations. For example, a bump array located in the center of a chip can be redistributed to positions near the chip edge. The ability to redistribute points can enable higher contact density and enable subsequent packaging steps. This “fan-in” process also creates one of the smallest packages available.

    The redistribution process adds another set of layers over the wafer surface. A dielectric film is deposited for electrical isolation, then the original bond pads are exposed. Metal lines are deposited to relocate the pads to desired locations, and underbump metallization layers are built to support the solder (or other metal) bumps.

    重新
    分布重新定位或重新分布接触点是另一种可以在晶圆级高效完成的技术。重新分配层(RDL)用于将连接重新路由到所需位置。例如,位于芯片中心的凸块阵列可以重新分配到靠近芯片边缘的位置。重新分配点的能力可以实现更高的接触密度并实现后续的封装步骤。此“扇入”过程还会创建可用的最小软件包之一。

    重新分配过程在晶片表面上添加了另一组层。沉积电介质膜以进行电隔离,然后暴露原始的焊盘。沉积金属线以将焊盘重新定位到所需位置,并构建凸块下金属化层以支撑焊料(或其他金属)凸块。

    img

    Fan-Out WLP
    The redistribution process can also be used to spread or “fan out” the connection points. This may be needed, for example, when the chip shrinks in size while requiring the same number of contact points. One solution is to fan out the contacts beyond the dimensions of the chip. A compelling application of this technology is the improved electrical and thermal performance along with a reduction in overall package height.

    Fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) typically involves first dicing the front-end-processed wafer into individual die. These die are then spaced apart on a carrier structure, and the gaps are filled in to form a reconstituted wafer. Once the artificial wafer has been built, the contacts can be redistributed beyond the perimeter of the original die using WLP processing.

    扇出WLP重
    分布过程也可以用于扩展或“扇出”连接点。例如,当芯片尺寸缩小而需要相同数量的接触点时,可能需要这样做。一种解决方案是将触点扩展到芯片尺寸之外。该技术的一项引人注目的应用是改善了电气和热性能,并降低了整体封装高度。

    扇出晶圆级封装(FOWLP)通常涉及首先将经过前端处理的晶圆切成单个裸片。然后将这些管芯在载体结构上隔开,并填充间隙以形成重构晶片。一旦构建了人造晶圆,就可以使用WLP处理将触点重新分布到原始管芯的外围。

    Through-Silicon Vias
    While bumping and RDL may reduce the surface area chips use on a circuit board, space usage can be even more efficient when chips are stacked. Even better, stacking is a strategy that improves the electrical performance of multiple chips. Wire bonding is one way to create stacked assemblies, and silicon vias (TSVs) have emerged as an attractive alternative that can offer a smaller form factor. A TSV is an electrical connection through the entire thickness of the chip, creating the shortest possible path from one side of the chip to the other. The short interconnect length between chips can also mean lower power consumption and greater bandwidth.

    In one common way to create TSVs, the vias (holes) are etched from the front side of the wafer to a certain depth. These are then isolated and filled by depositing a conductive material, typically copper. After chip fabrication is complete, the wafer is thinned from the back side to expose the vias, and metal is deposited on the backside of the wafer to complete the TSV interconnection.

    硅通孔
    虽然凸点和RDL可以减少芯片在电路板上的表面积,但在堆叠芯片时,空间利用率甚至可以更高。更好的是,堆叠是提高多个芯片电气性能的策略。引线键合是创建堆叠组件的一种方法,而硅通孔(TSV)已成为一种有吸引力的替代方法,可以提供更小的尺寸。TSV是贯穿芯片整个厚度的电连接,可形成从芯片一侧到另一侧的最短路径。芯片之间的互连长度短也意味着更低的功耗和更大的带宽。

    在一种常见的创建TSV的方式中,从晶圆的正面将通孔(孔)蚀刻到一定深度。然后通过沉积导电材料(通常为铜)将其隔离并填充。芯片制造完成后,将晶圆从背面减薄以暴露通孔,并在晶圆的背面沉积金属以完成TSV互连。

    Packaging Technology Evolution
    No longer an afterthought in the semiconductor manufacturing process, packaging has exploded with innovation and complexity. In particular, wafer-level packaging has experienced tremendous advancements in materials, processes, and equipment, enabling WLP to become one of the fastest growing chip packaging technologies. Bumping, redistribution layers, fan out, through-silicon vias, and other techniques have contributed to the small-form-factor chips with powerful, high-speed functionality that we consumers expect in our mobile electronics. We look forward to seeing the next generation of semiconductor devices enabled by leading-edge packaging technologies.

    封装技术的发展封装
    不再是半导体制造过程中的事后思考,其创新和复杂性已经爆炸式增长。特别地,晶圆级封装在材料,工艺和设备方面经历了巨大的进步,使WLP成为发展最快的芯片封装技术之一。凸点,重新分布层,扇出,硅通孔以及其他技术已为我们的消费者提供了希望在移动电子产品中具有强大,高速功能的小尺寸芯片。我们期待看到由领先的封装技术支持的下一代半导体器件。

    Bumping

    Bumping is an advanced wafer level process technology where “bumps” or “balls” made of various metals are formed on the substrate before the wafer or board is cut, or “diced” into individual chips. Wafer bumping is an essential part of flip chip or board level semiconductor packaging which has become the standard in interconnect technology in consumer electronics today. These “bumps” are the components that connect the die to the substrate and become the package after singulation. These interconnect building blocks can be bumps or copper pillars, composed of metal solders, such as eutectic or lead free SnAg.

    凸块是一种先进的晶圆级处理技术,其中在将晶圆或板切割或“切块”成单个芯片之前,在基板上形成由各种金属制成的“凸块”或“球”。晶圆隆起是倒装芯片或板级半导体封装的重要组成部分,倒装芯片或板级半导体封装已成为当今消费电子产品中互连技术的标准。这些“凸块”是将管芯连接到基板并在分割后成为封装的组件。这些互连构建块可以是由金属焊料(例如共晶或无铅SnAg)组成的凸块或铜柱

    The bumps, or pillars, provide shorter pathways than wire bonds between die and substrate to improve the electrical, mechanical and thermal performance of the flip chip package. For the performance driven market, flip chip interconnects reduce signal propagation delay, provide better bandwidths, and relieve the constraints of power distribution. Bump composition and dimension depends on requirements such as final form factor, cost and the electrical, mechanical and thermal performance. Cu Pillar structures have become the interconnect solution of choice for fine pitch, lead-free, or high current application devices. For the form factor driven market, such as mobile applications, replacing wire bonding by flip chip interconnects reduces the size and weight of the package as well as delivering better performance.

    与裸片和衬底之间的引线键合相比,凸块或支柱提供的路径更短,从而改善了倒装芯片封装的电气,机械和热性能。对于性能驱动的市场,倒装芯片互连可减少信号传播延迟,提供更好的带宽并减轻配电的限制。凸块的组成和尺寸取决于最终形状因数,成本以及电气,机械和热性能等要求。铜柱结构已成为小间距,无铅或大电流应用设备的互连解决方案。对于诸如移动应用之类的尺寸驱动市场,用倒装芯片互连代替引线键合可以减小封装的尺寸和重量,并提供更好的性能。

    Fan out

    The Fan Out process generally represents the redistribution of the interconnects located inside and outside of the die envelope. The term fan out often includes a variety of assembly methods: embedded wafer level package (WLP), embedded wafer level ball grid array (eWLB), wafer level system in package (WLSiP). The Fan Out process can also embed chip capacitors and inductors and has also been contemplated for 3D die stacking.

    扇出过程通常表示位于管芯封套内部和外部的互连的重新分布。扇出一词通常包括多种组装方法:嵌入式晶圆级封装(WLP),嵌入式晶圆级球栅阵列(eWLB),晶圆级封装中系统(WLSiP)。扇出工艺还可以嵌入芯片电容器和电感器,并且也已考虑用于3D芯片堆叠。

    The Fan Out technology is often a process of reconstituting a new wafer or panel on all KGD (known good die). KGD are accurately placed and temporarily held on to an interposer with double sided sticky tape or an adhesive. Then, EMC (Embedded Mold Compound) is applied to create a new wafer or panel. Once the new wafer or panel is created then the front-end lithography steppers apply the RDL (Redistribution Layer) connecting and relocating the interconnections. The RDL process demands that increasingly thin PVD seeds be sputtered and finer RDLs be plated with micron accuracy and tight uniformity over the entire wafer or panel substrate. One of the major challenges is finding sputtering and plating machines that can deliver thin, uniform seeds and fine line RDL plating below 10 um L/S uniformly across a variety of large areas.

    扇出技术通常是在所有KGD(已知良好管芯)上重新构造新晶圆或面板的过程。将KGD准确放置并用双面胶带或粘合剂暂时固定在插入器上。然后,应用EMC(嵌入式模塑料)来创建新的晶圆或面板。一旦创建了新的晶圆或面板,前端光刻步进器就会应用RDL(重新分布层)来连接并重新定位互连。RDL工艺要求溅射出越来越薄的PVD种子,并以微米精度和紧密均匀性在整个晶圆或面板基板上电镀更细的RDL。主要的挑战之一是找到一种溅射和电镀机,该设备可以在各种大面积上均匀地提供厚度小于10 um L / S的薄而均匀的种子和细线RDL电镀。

    RF filter

    As mobile handsets reach a greater portion of the earth’s population, the need for radio spectrums to communicate these devices to one another has skyrocketed. Five bands at the turn of the century has increased to more than 30 as we approach the 5G communication standard slated for 2020. Radio frequency (RF) front end modules and filters are key components to enabling 5G networks as 5G communication protocols are defined and implemented. RF and microwave filters represent a class of electronic filter, designed to operate on signals in the megahertz to gigahertz frequency ranges (medium frequency to extremely high frequency).

    随着移动电话覆盖地球人口的更大比例,对无线电频谱将这些设备相互通信的需求激增。随着我们接近2020年制定的5G通信标准,世纪之交的五个频段已增加到30多个。随着定义和实施5G通信协议,射频(RF)前端模块和滤波器是启用5G网络的关键组件。 。射频和微波滤波器代表一类电子滤波器,旨在对兆赫兹至千兆赫兹频率范围(中频至极高频)的信号进行操作。

    Acoustic wave technology, such as the popular Surface Acoustic Wave filter (SAW) and the higher technology Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) filter for more challenging interference environments, deliver interdigital transducers (IDTs) that provide some of the highest performance, smallest and lowest-cost filters in analog RF communication. Different filters trap acoustic energy in different ways. Manufacturers are increasingly coupling filters with amplifiers or an array of other devices to achieve even smaller form factors and higher functionality in the end package. The challenge for filter manufacturers is to safely plate and sputter metals on a variety of very fragile, small wafer sizes.

    声波技术,例如流行的表面声波滤波器(SAW)和技术更先进的体声波(BAW)滤波器,可用于更具挑战性的干扰环境,它们提供叉指换能器(IDT),这些叉指换能器可提供某些性能最高,体积最小和成本最低的传感器,模拟RF通信中的成本过滤器。不同的滤波器以不同的方式捕获声能。制造商越来越多地将滤波器与放大器或其他设备阵列耦合在一起,以在最终封装中实现更小的外形尺寸和更高的功能。过滤器制造商面临的挑战是如何在各种非常脆弱的小晶圆尺寸上安全地电镀和溅射金属。

    从ASMPT2018年的半年报中我们可以看到,受益于后工序设备分部、物料分部、SMT解决方案三大业务较去年同期分别增长14.4%、12.1%、24.6%,上半年的收入为96.16亿港元,较2017年同期增长17.48%;毛利为39.12亿港元,同比增长17.97%。但由于所得税开支同比增长115.27%,导致持有人应占溢利下滑6%至13.97亿港元。其中后工序设备分部的增长,主要依靠CIS市场对ASM主动式镜头对位”AA”设备的强劲需求。SMT解决方案分部收入的提升,则依赖汽车及 工业电子 市场,并得益于国内手机供应链市场占有率的扩大。

    另外,还在四月份与东电电子(TOKYO ELECTRON LTD)达成了收购其美国子公司TEL NEXX的协议,下半年获得主管部门批准后,ASMPT将在 芯片封装 技术上得到ECD和PVD两项RDL关键技术,以应对10纳米以下制程封装市场需要。

    不过由于全球的半导体投资速度趁缓,中国内地手机市场低迷,行业产能过剩状况也越来越严重,外界投资者对ASMPT的前景预期并不乐观,其股价目前也处于相对的低位。相比去年底高点时的127.58港元,ASMPT股价已经下跌了37.5%,或许这也是TCL想在低位的时候出手的原因之一。

    目前TCL集团的传统业务的盈利能力已经不敌其华星光电的面板业务,而在最新的全面屏显示技术上,ASMPT是业内除了三星与JDI两家的合作供应商外,少有能提供COF与COP后段模组封装技术的厂商。今年苹果发布的新机,其OLED显示屏模组就是采用COP封装,LCD显示屏模组则采用了COF封装。

    另外,TCL集团虽然说不会主动投资芯片生产制造企业,但却设立了半导体投资机构,希望能从资本投资的方向来让集团获取收益。这样一来,对于TCL集团希望取得类似ASMPT这种行业比较稀缺的上市公司股份或控制权,就一点都不意外了。
