    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention [0002]
  • The present invention relates to semiconductor device technology, more specifically to a packaging assembly and a method of assembling a packaging assembly using soldering technology. [0003]
  • 2. Description of the Related Art [0004]
  • Semiconductor integrated circuits such as LSI have achieved higher levels of integration in recent years. Semiconductor devices themselves are shrinking in geometrical size, increasing in the degree of on-chip integration, and number of pin-counts are increasing. As for the surface-mount package (SMP), flip chip bonding technology which connects a semiconductor chip and a circuit board with bumps has been employed widely. As for the flip chip bonding technology, an encapsulating resin is applied on a surface of a circuit board having bumps on the surface. Next, bumps formed on an element side of a semiconductor chip and the bumps formed on the circuit board are mated and contacted to each other. Furthermore, the circuit board and the semiconductor chip are heated around 150° C. during a reflow process, and oxide films and alien substances contained in the bumps are removed by the resin which serves as a flux. Then, bumps of the circuit board and the semiconductor chip are melted and connected during heating process at 200° C. After that, bumps and the resin are hardened completely in the curing process. [0005]
  • In the SMP assembling process, solder bumps made of solder paste are often used as bump electrodes. However, recently, it has been pointed out that the outflow of lead from electronic products dumped onto reclaimed land pollutes underground water. Thus, throughout the world, manufacturers are changing the Sn—Pb eutectic, used for mounting semiconductor chips or printed circuit boards, to lead-free solder alloys. [0006]
  • Material examples of lead-free solder alloys, responding to an environmental problem, are tin-silver (Sn-Ag) solder and tin-zinc (Sn—Zn) solder. However, for lead-free solder alloys such as Sn-Ag solder, the melting temperature is generally higher than that of the conventional eutectic alloy. Therefore, lead-free solder alloys having higher melting temperatures have to be reflowed at a relatively high temperature of approximately 200° C. However, when reflow is performed at high temperature conditions, strong thermal stresses are applied to semiconductor chips and mounting bases, and an aggravation of coplanarity and a fall in reliability occurs. Moreover, when organic materials are employed as a circuit board, a gas is generated from the circuit board and that invades into an underfill resin by reflowing at a high temperature of more than 200° C. On the other hand, while a curing reaction advances for the underfill resin, the viscosity of the underfill resin rises. As a result, the gas in the underfill resin remains as a void without being ejected outside of the underfill resin. Furthermore, since the heat shrinkage rate of underfill resin also increases by reflowing, thermal stresses occur to the electrodes on the semiconductor element side, and cracks in the electrodes arise. [0007]
  • Meanwhile, since recent microprocessors process huge quantities of information at high speed, there have been problems with the resistance of wires interconnecting transistors, and the capacitances of insulators between interconnect wires. For example, wire materials are changing from aluminum (Al) to copper (Cu) having a high electrical conductivity, and insulators are changing from silicon oxide films to materials having low dielectric constants. However, such materials used in recent electronic devices are generally weak in mechanical strength. In particular, low dielectric constant films (hereinafter called low-k films) used as insulators on semiconductor chips are significantly weak in mechanical strength and in adhesion intensity because of their porous structures necessary to ensure low dielectric constants. Therefore, when reflowing to electrodes is performed using a lead-free solder at a high melting temperature, strong thermal stresses also occur in the low-k films within the semiconductor chip. Furthermore, the low-k films disposed just under the solder electrodes may be damaged by the heat and the adhesive strength between the semiconductor chip and the mounting base is also decreased. [0008]

  • (FIRST EMBODIMENT) [0021]
  • The [0022] packaging assembly 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention encompasses, as shown in FIG. 1, a substrate 1 defined by a first surface and a second surface opposing to the first surface, a plurality of chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2d disposed on the first surface, a plurality of a first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3d connected to the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, a plurality of a second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d connected to the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d, a semiconductor chip 6 connected to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4d on a third surface, and an underfill resin 7 disposed around the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d and second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. The underfill resin 7 also serves as a flux.
  • The [0023] substrate 1 is a kind of printed circuit board made from a material including epoxy resin. The substrate 1 has: a wiring layer 15 on a second surface, a plurality of chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d on a first surface, and a protective film (passivation layer) 18 which is made from SiO2 film, PSG film and the like. The protective film 18 is stacked on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d. As the material of the substrate 1, various organic synthetic resins and inorganic materials including ceramic and glass can be used. Among organic synthetic resins, phenolic resin, polyester resin, epoxy resin, polyimide resin, fluoroplastic, and the like can be used. Meanwhile, paper, woven glass fabric, a glass backing material, or the like is used as a backing material that becomes a core informing a slab-shaped structure. As a general in organic base material, ceramic can be used. Alternatively, a metal substrate is used in order to improve the heat-radiating characteristics. In the case where a transparent substrate is needed, glass is used. As a ceramic substrate, alumina (Al2O3), mullite (3Al2O3. 2SiO2), beryllia (BeO), aluminum nitride (AlN), silicon nitride (SiN), and the like can be used. Furthermore, it is possible to use a metal insulator substrate in which a polyimide resin plate having high thermal resistance is laminated onto metal, such as iron or copper, to form a multi-layered structure. The thickness of the substrate 1 is not limited. As for the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the wiring layer 15, electrically conductive material such as alminium (Al,) alminium alloy (Al—Si, Al—Cu—Si), gold, copper, or the like can be used. Alternatively, other electrodes can be provided through a plurality of signal lines such as gate wires connected to a plurality of gate electrodes. As gate electrodes, it is possible to use polysilicon, refractory metal such as tungsten (W), titanium (Ti), and molybdenum (Mo), silicides thereof (WSi2, TiSi2 and MoSi2), polycide using these silicides, or the like. Alternatively, inside of the substrate 1, a plurality of vias can be formed and a plurality of inner buried wires connected to the vias can be disposed.
  • The chip-[0024] site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d are aligned at equal intervals on the first surface of the substrate 1. The positions, material, number, and the like of the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d are not limited. The first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are connected on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d. For the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d, solder materials having lower melting temperature can be used. As for the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d, materials selected from a tin-bismuth (Sn—Bi) alloy, tin-bismuth-silver (Sn—Bi—Ag) alloy, tin-zinc (Sn—Zn) alloy, tin-zinc-bismuth (Sn—Zn-Bi) alloy, tin-bismuth-indium (Sn—Bi—In) alloy, bismuth-indium (Bi—In) alloy, bismuth-palladium (Bi—Pd) alloy, indium-silver (In—Ag) alloy, tin-lead (Sn=5 w %, Pb=95 w %) can be used. Melting temperatures of a these alloys are as follows: Sn—Pb alloy and a Sn—Bi-Ag alloy are from 138° C. to 150° C., Sn—Zn alloy is from 198° C. to 210° C, Sn—Bi—In alloy is from 190° C. to 200° C., Bi—In alloy is from 72° C. to 120° C., Sn-In alloy is from 116° C. to 130° C., In—Ag alloy is from 141° C. to 160° C., Sn—Pb (Sn=5 w %, Pb=95 w %) alloy is from 320° C. to 330° C. In case where the outflow of lead to the environment is taken into consideration, lead-free solders having lower melting temperatures may be used for the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d. For example, when a material such as an organic synthetic resin is used for the substrate 1, solder materials having lower melting temperature such as Sn—Bi alloy and Sn—Bi—Ag alloy can be used to prevent gas generation from the substrate. The top surface of the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d are taking a shape of concave on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c and 2 d. The second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c and 4 d taking spherical shapes are adhered on the top surface of the concave-shaped balls (first solder balls) 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d.
  • As shown in FIG. 1, the [0025] second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c and 4 d are connected to the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d disposed on the third surface of the semiconductor chip 6. As for the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, solder materials having higher melting temperature than the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d. As for the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, materials selected from a tin-silver (Sn—Ag) alloy, tin-silver-cupper (Sn—Ag—Cu) alloy, tin-lead (Sn=63 w % Pb=35 w %) alloy, tin-zinc (Sn—Zn) alloy can be used. Melting temperatures of these alloys are as follows: a Sn—Ag alloy is from 220° C. to 225° C., Sn—Ag—Cu alloy is from 215° C. to 230° C., Sn—Pb (Sn=63 w % Pb=35 w %) alloy is from 180° C. to 185° C., Sn—Zn alloy is from 195° C. to 215° C. Materials of the second solderballs 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d may be changed depending on the melting temperature of the material used for the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d. For example, when materials containing lead are used as solder balls, Sn—Pb alloys composed of 5 w % tin and 95 w % lead can be used as the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d and Sn—Pb alloys composed of 63 w % tin and 37 w % of lead can be used as the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. On the other hand, if the outflow the lead to the environment is taken into consideration, lead-free solders having lower melting temperature may be useful for the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. For example, Sn—Bi alloys may be used as the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d, and Sn—Ag alloys may be used as the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d.
  • As shown in FIG. 1A, a plurality of semiconductor elements (circuit elements) [0026] 10 s 1, 10 s 2, 10 d 1, and 10 d 2, which are heavily-doped impurity regions doped with donors or acceptors of approximately 1×1018 cm31 3 to 1×1021 cm 3 (such as source regions 10 s 1 and 10 s 2 and drain regions 10 d 1 and 10 d 2 or emitter regions/collector regions) or the like are merged on the third surface of the semiconductor chip 6. Insulating films 50, 51, 52, 53, and 54, made from low-k films are stacked into a multi-level structure using low-k films on the semiconductor elements 10 s 1, 10 s 2, 10 d 1, and 10 d 2. Metallic interconnections 50 a, 50 b, 50 c, 50 d, 51 a, 51 b, 51 c, 51 d, 51 e, 53 a, 53 b, 54 a, 54 b, and 54 c made of aluminum (Al) aluminum alloy (Al—Si or Al—Cu—Si) or the like are alternatively stacked into the insulating films 50, 51, 52, 53, and 54 so as to connect the semiconductor elements 10 s 1, 10 s 2, 10 d 1, and 10 d 2. On the uppermost layer of the insulating films 54, low-k films 12 as shown in FIG. 1 can be stacked into multi-level structure. As shown in FIG. 1, bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d are formed just under the low-k film 12. Note that, prepositions, such as “on” and “under” are defined with respect to a planar surface of the substrate, regardless of the orientation the substrate is actually held. As shown in FIG. 1, a protective film 13 made from a silicon oxide film (SiO2), a PSG film, a BPSG film, a silicon nitride film (Si3N4), a polyimide film or the like is formed on the low-k film 12 and bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d and covers the third surface of the semiconductor chip 6. In the protective film 13, a plurality of openings (not shown in FIG. 1) are selectively provided so as to expose partially the top surface of the respective bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d. The barrier metals 14 a, 14 b, 14 c, and 14 d, which are connected to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, are formed on the respective bonding pads Sa, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d. Note that, as for the low-k film 12, a material having an effective dielectric constant of the low-k film is equal to or less than 3.5 is desirable to accomplish lower effective dielectric constant between wirings. As for the low-k films, for example, an inorganic insulator such as fluorine doped silicon mono oxide (SiOF), carbon doped silicon mono oxide (SiOC), organic silica, porous HSQ, benzocycrobutene (BCB) and porous films made from above mentioned materials can be used. Moreover, to prevent exfoliation, it can be agreeable that the coherence strength of the insulating films 50, 51, 52, 53 and 54, and low-k film 12 to the circuit elements 10 s 1, 10 s 2, 10 d 1, and 10 d 2, metallic interconnections 50 a, 50 b, 50 c, 50 d, 51 a, 51 b, 51 c, 51 d, 51 e, 53 a, 53 b, 54 a, 54 b, and 54 c, and the semiconductor chip 6 is equal to or less than 15 J/m2.
  • As the [0027] underfill resin 7, materials such as a resin containing flux, a stiffening material having capability of flux, a resin containing filler, and materials containing acid anhydrides can be used. As for the resin, epoxy resin, acrylic resin, silicon resin, polyimide resin and the like may be useful.
  • In the [0028] packaging assembly 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are disposed on the substrate 1. These first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are melted when heated at a lower temperature of approximately 150° C. Therefore, when an organic synthetic resin is used for a material of 10 the substrate 1, because gas is not released from the substrate 1, voids are not generated in the underfill resin 7. Moreover, since the substrate 1 and the semiconductor chip 6 are connected at a low temperature of 150° C., the heat contraction of the substrate 1, semiconductor chip 6, and resin 7 can be minimized. At the same time, coplanarity and reliability of the substrate 1 may be improved. Furthermore, since strong thermal stress is not added to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, the low-k film 12 disposed on the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d does not break. The protective film 13 containing organic resins is disposed on the surface of the low-k film 12. Therefore, the low-k film 12 will not exfoliated.
  • Furthermore, when lead-free solder materials are used for the first and [0029] second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c,and 4 d, 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d respectively, the packaging assembly 100 corresponding to the environmental problem may be accomplished.
  • (FIRST ASSEMBLING METHOD OF THE FIRST EMBODIMENT) [0030]
  • Next, as shown in FIGS. [0031] 2 to 10, a first assembling method of the packaging assembly 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is described. Here, it is obvious that the assembling method of the packaging assembly 100 described below is one example, and the packaging assembly 100 is feasible by other various assembly methods including modifications of the present embodiment.
  • (a) First, the semiconductor chip having circuit elements, insulating films, and metallic interconnections on the third surface (omitted in FIG.2) are prepared. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, a multi-level structure of low-[0032] k films 12A and 12B as interlayer dielectrics are stacked and metal wires 11 a, 11 b, 11 c, 11 d, and 11 e made from Al, Al—Si, Al—Cu—Si, or the like are formed into the low- k films 12A and 12B are formed. In the uppermost conductive layer, the bonding pad 5 a is formed. Next, a protective film 13 made from a Sio2 film, a PSG film, a BPSG film, a Si3N4 film, a polyimide film, or the like is formed around the bonding pads 5 a. Subsequently, the protection film 13 is partially provided with an opening 13A such that the bonding pad 5 is exposed.
  • (b) Next, as shown in FIG. 3 the titanium (Ti) film [0033] 4A, nickel (Ni) film 14B on the Ti film 14A, and the Pd film 14C on the Ni film 14B are formed gradually by use of a sputtering equipment or an electron beam evaporation apparatus, a barrier metal film 14 is formed. Then, a photo resist film (not shown in FIG. 3) is applied onto the barrier metal 14, and a gap is formed between the photo resist films 16 a and 16 b. Next, as shown in FIG. 4, a conductive material 17 is selectively buried in the groove between the photo resist films 16 a and 16 b.
  • (c) Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the photo resist [0034] films 16 a and 16 b are stripped by solvents such as acetone, photo resist stripper and the like. Part of the Pd film 14C, Ni film 14B, and Ti film 14A are removed by use of the conductive material 14 as an etching mask. As for the removal of the Pd film 14C and Ni film 14B, an etching solution of aqua regia may be used. As for the removal of the Ti film 14A, an etching solution of ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid may be used. Next, flux is applied around the conductive material 17, and the conductive material 17 is heated around 200° C.˜220° C. for 30 minutes during a reflowing process. Then, as shown in FIG. 6, the second solder ball 4 a is formed. After that, some electric testing may be performed to the semiconductor chip 6.
  • (d) Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the [0035] substrate 1 which is made from epoxy resin with a thickness of 30 μm˜60 μm is prepared. As for the substrate 1, phenolic resin, polyester resin, epoxy resin, polyimide resin, fluoroplastic, and the like may be used instead of epoxy resin. A wiring layer 15 made from copper or the like is formed on the second surface of the substrate 1. On the first surface, the chip-site land 2 a is formed and the protective film 18 made from SiO2 film, PSG film or the like is laminated on the chip-site land 2 a. Then, the protection film 18 is partially provided with an opening 18A such that the chip-site land 2 a is exposed, thus forming the first solder ball 3 a.
  • (e) Next, as shown in FIG. 8, [0036] underfill resin 7 having property of flux is applied on the second surface of the substrate 1 so as to surround the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d. Note that, a resin containing filler can be used as the underfill resin 7 to decrease the thermal expansion coefficient and to improve reliability. Then, as shown in FIG. 9, the second solderballs 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d are aligned on the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d so as to be mated each other. After that, the substrate 1 and the semiconductor chip 7 are introduced to a furnace or the like and reflow is performed for 1˜15 seconds at about 150° C., pressurizing toward a substrate from upside of the semiconductor chip 6. As a result, since the underfill resin 7 is activated, oxides and impurities of the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are removed by the flux capability of the underfill resin 7. Next, the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are melted and adhered around the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, as shown in FIG. 10. Moreover, in order to harden the underfill resin 7, the substrate 1 and the semiconductor chip 6 are introduced to the oven and dried.
  • As described above, the [0037] packaging assembly 100 as shown in FIG. 1 can be assembled. According to the packaging assembly 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d disposed on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d melt at a temperature of about 150° C. and connect temporarily to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. Therefore, when an organic synthetic resin is used for a material of the substrate 1, gas will not be released from the substrate 1, and voids are not generated in the underfill resin 7. Moreover, since the substrate 1 and the semiconductor chip 6 are connected at a low temperature, the heat contraction of the substrate 1, semiconductor chip 6, and resin 7 can be minimized. At the same time, coplanarity and reliability of the substrate 1 may be improved. Furthermore, since strong thermal stress is not incurred to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d, the low-k film 12 disposed on the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d will not break. The protective film 13 containing organic resin is disposed on the surface of the low-k film 12. Therefore, the low-k film 12 is not exfoliated.

  • Next, as shown in FIGS. [0045] 13 to 15, an assembling method of the packaging assembly 101 according to the modification of first embodiment of the present invention is described.
  • (a) First, the [0046] substrate 1 which is made from epoxy resin with a thickness of 30 μm˜60 μm is prepared. A wiring layer 15 made from copper is formed on the second surface of the substrate 1. On the first surface, the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the second chip-site lands 22 a, 22 b, 22 c, and 22 d are formed. Then, the protective film 18 made from SiO2 film, PSG film or the like is laminated on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the second chip-site lands 22 a, 22 b, 22 c, and 22 d. The protection film 18 is partially removed such that the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the second chip-site lands 22 a, 22 b, 22 c, and 22 d are exposed. Thus, the first solderballs 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are formed on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 d, and 2 d. The third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d are formed on the second chip-site lands 22 a, 22 b, 22 c, and 22 d. Next, as shown in FIG. 14, the substrate 1 is disposed on the assembling stage 20A which is heated around 150° C.
  • (b) Next, [0047] underfill resin 7A serves as flux is applied on the second surface of the substrate 1 so as to surround the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d, and the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d. Underfill resin (second underfill resin) 7B serves as flux is applied so as to surround the second chip-site lands 22 a, 22 b, 22 c, and 22 d, and the third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d. Then, underfill resins 7A and 7B are heated and activated by the heat of assembling stage 20A. As a result, oxides and impurities included on the surface of first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d and third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, 23 d are removed by the underfill resins 7A and 7B serving as flux. After that, the surfaces of the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are exposed on the surface of the underfill resin 7A. The surface of the third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 24 d are also exposed on the surface or the underfill resin 7B.
  • (c) Next, as shown in FIG. 14, the [0048] second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d are aligned on the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d so as to be mated to each other, and pressurized by being pushed from the fourth surface of the semiconductor chip 6 toward the substrate 1. Then, the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d are melted with heat from the assembling stage 20A and adhered to the around of second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. Next, as shown in FIG. 15, the fourth solder balls 24 a, 24 b, 24 c, and 24 d connected with the second semiconductor chip 25 are aligned on the third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d so as to be mated each other, and pressurized by being pushed from fourth surface of the second semiconductor chip 26 toward the substrate 1. Then, the third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d are melted with heat from the assembling stage 20A and adhered to the around of fourth solder balls 24 a, 24 b, 24 c, and 24 d. Moreover, the assembling stage 20A and the assembling tool 20B are cooled, and the underfill resin 7 is cooled and hardened.
  • As described above, the [0049] packaging assembly 101 as shown in FIG. 13 can be manufactured. According to the packaging assembly 101 of the first embodiment of the present invention, the first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d disposed on the chip- site lands 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, and 2 d melt with the heat from assembling stage 20A of about 150° C. to be connected temporarily to the second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. Therefore, when second semiconductor chip 26 is mounted next to semiconductor chip 6, it can prevent the position of semiconductor chips 6 and 26 from shifting due to the flow of underfill resins 7A and 7B. Moreover, two or more semiconductor chips can be mounted adjacently. Since the packaging assembly 101 shown in FIG. 13 can be mounted at a low temperature of 150° C., gas is not released from the substrate 1, and voids are not generated in the underfill resin 7 even if an organic synthetic resin is used for a material of the substrate 1. Furthermore, since heat expansion of the substrate 1 and semiconductor chips 6 and 26, and heat contraction of the underfill resin 7 can be suppressed at lower level, strong thermal stresses are not be incurred to bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d, and second bonding pads 25 a, 25 b, 2 c, and 25 d. Therefore, thermal stresses applied to the low-k film 12 and second low-k film 32 which are disposed close to the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d, and second bonding pads 25 a, 25 b, 2 c, and 25 d, can be minimized and breakage of the films can be prevented.

  • (ASSEMBLING METHOD OF THE SECOND EMBODIMENT) [0056]
  • Next, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, an assembling method of the [0057] packaging assembly 102 according to the second embodiment of the present invention is described. Here, since the second assembling method before forming second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d on the semiconductor chip 6 or first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d on the substrate 1 is substantially the same shown in FIGS. 2˜8, detailed explanation is omitted.
  • A photo resist film (not shown) is coated on the wiring layer [0058] 15 (shown in FIG. 1) delineated on the second surface by use of photolithography technology. The wiring layer 15 is partially delineated with the photo resist film as an etching mask, and external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, and . . . 15 d are formed. A protective film (not shown) which is made from SiO2, SiN and the like can be delineated so as to be surround the external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, and 15 d. Then, as shown in FIG. 17, the external solder balls 21 a, 21 b, 21 c, and 21d containing such as Sn—Ag alloys are formed on the external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, and 15 d, and heated around 200° C., reflow is performed. Heat from performing reflow is conveyed to first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d, and second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. As a result, first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d, and second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d are melted to be formed internal solder joints 8 a, 8 b, 8 c, and 8 d.

Therefore, when an organic synthetic resin is used for a material of the substrate 1, gas is not released from the substrate 1, and voids are not generated in the underfill resin 7. Moreover, since the substrate 1 and the semiconductor chip 6 are connected at a low temperature, thermal stresses applied to the low-k film 12 disposed on the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c, and 5 d can be minimized.

  • Next, as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, an assembling method of the [0064] packaging assembly 103 according to the modification of the second embodiment of the present invention is described.
  • A photo resist film (not shown) is delineated on the [0065] wiring layer 15 formed on the second surface by use of photolithography technology. The wiring layer 15 is stripped with the photo resist film as an etching mask, external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, . . . 15 j are formed. A protective film which is made from SiO2, SiN and the like can be formed so as to be surround the external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, and . . . 15 j. Then, as shown in FIG. 20, the outer connection solder balls 21 a, 21 b, 21 c. . . 21 j containing such as Sn—Ag alloys are formed on the external lands 15 a, 15 b, 15 c, . . . , 15 j and heated around 200° C., reflow is performed. Heat from performing reflow is conveyed to first and third solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, d 3 d, 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d, and second and fourth solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 24 c, 24 d, and 24 a, 24 b, 24 c, and 24 d. As a result, first and third solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, 3 d, 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d, and second and fourth solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, 4 d, 24 a, 24 b, 24 c, and 24 d are melted to be formed internal solder joints 8 a, 8 b, 8 c, and 8 d and second internal solder joints 28 a, 28 b, 28 c, and 28 d.
  • As described above, the [0066] packaging assembly 103 as shown in FIG. 19 can be assembled. According to the packaging assembly 103 of the modification of second embodiment of the present invention, third solder balls 23 a, 23 b, 23 c, and 23 d, and fourth solder balls 24 a, 24 b, 24 c, and 24 d are connected temporarily after being connected with first solder balls 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, and 3 d and second solder balls 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d. Therefore, when the second semiconductor chip 26 is mounted next to the first semiconductor chip 6, shifting of the position of chips 6 and 26 caused by the flow of underfill resin 7 can be prevented. Moreover, two or more semiconductor chips can be mounted adjacently. Since the packaging assembly 103 shown in FIG. 19 can be mounted at a low temperature of 150° C., gas is not released from the substrate 1, and not generated in the underfill resin 7 even if an organic synthetic resin is used for a material of the substrate 1. Furthermore, since heat expansion of the substrate 1 and semiconductor chips 6 and 26, and heat contraction of the underfill resin 7 can be suppressed at lower level, strong thermal stresses are not be incurred to bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d, and second bonding pads 25 a, 25 b, 2 c, and 25 d. Therefore, thermal stresses applied to the low-k film 12 and second low-k film 32 which are disposed close to the bonding pads 5 a, 5 b, 5 c and 5 d, and second bonding pads 25 a, 25 b, 2 c, and 25 d, can be minimized and the breakage of the films can be prevented. Furthermore, since complete connection is accomplished by forming internal solder joints 8 a, 8 b, 8 c, and 8 d, and second internal solder joints 28 a, 28 b, 28 c, and 28 d, to be heated by reflowing process, the reliability of the first level assembly 102 can be improved. Accordingly, first and second internal solder joints 8 a, 8 b, 8 c, 8 d, 28 a, 28 b, 28 c, and 28 d do not melt even if in a test of a continuous at high temperature of 150° C., or a heat cycle test which repeatedly varies an atmosphere from 120° C.to −55° C.
  • (OTHER EMBODIMENTS) [0067]
  • Various modifications will become possible for those skilled in the art upon receiving the teachings of the present disclosure without departing from the scope thereof. [0068]
  • As for the [0069] packaging assembly 100, 101, 102, and 103 shown in FIGS. 1˜19, materials of the solder balls 3 a˜3 d, 4 a˜4 d, 23 a˜23 d, 24 a˜24 d can be partially changed. When the solder balls 3 a˜3 d, 4 a˜4 d, 23 a˜23 d, 24 a˜24 d are heated by performing reflowing, the semiconductor chips 6 and 26 and substrate 1 are elongated respectively. The thermal stresses caused by heat expansion (elongation) occurring at the central parts of the semiconductor chips 6 and 26 or the substrate 1 are weak. However, thermal stresses occurring at the edges of the semiconductor chips 6 and 26 and the substrate 1 are strong. Therefore, lead-free solders having higher melting temperature can be applied to the second solder joints 4 b and 4 c. The lead-free solders having lower melting temperatures can be applied to the second solder joints 4 a and 4 d. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the breakage of materials that have weak mechanical strengths formed in the circuit elements of the semiconductor chip 6, particularly, the breakage of the low-k film 12 disposed directly on the second solder joints 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, and 4 d.
