BACKGROUND
1. Field of Invention
The present invention relates to a package and a method for manufacturing thereof. More particularly, the present invention relates to a chip package with only one side for bonding process.
2. Description of Related Art
With electronic products in daily life becoming smaller and thinner, semiconductor chips disposed in those electronic products have to be miniaturized accordingly. On the other hand, functions of the semiconductor chips are still increasing when they are miniaturized. In order to improve reliabilities of the semiconductor chips, most semiconductor chips are fabricated into chip packages. Bonding wires are bonded to input/output (I/O) conducting pads of the chip packages, and the chip packages are integrated with a printed circuit board (PCB) to perform predetermined functions of the semiconductor chips. FIG. 1A is a top view of the chip package of prior art, and FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view of AA′ line in FIG. 1A. As illustrated in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, the semiconductor chip package 1 includes a semiconductor chip 2 and a plurality of bonding wires 4. The semiconductor chip 2 has a plurality of I/O conducting pads 2a and a plurality of holes 2b (labeled in dot lines). As shown in FIG. 1B, when the semiconductor chip 2 is fabricated into the semiconductor chip package 1, etching processes are performed from an upper surface US to a lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 2 to yield the plurality of holes 2b. Therefore, the plurality of I/O conducting pads 2a is exposed. The bonding wires 4 are respectively bonded to the I/O conducting pads 2a such that a PCB could be electrically connected to the semiconductor chip 2 through the bonding wires 4. To perform the operation of bonding the bonding wires 4 to the I/O conducting pads 2a, the holes 2b formed by the etching processes are required to be deep and board enough so as to expose the I/O conducting pads 2a and provide space for a bonding-wire carrier to enter therein. As illustrated in FIG. 1B, a distance a must exist between sidewalls of the hole 2b and the connection of bonding wire 4 and the I/O conducting pads 2a. In other words, large wire-bonding area is required. Therefore, space for interconnections in the semiconductor chip 2 with a given area is accordingly limited by the distance a. As aforementioned, functions of the semiconductor chips are still required to be increased even when they are miniaturized. Therefore, in the semiconductor chip 2 with a given area, space for interconnections should be increased to provide more flexibility on layout design of interconnections such that functions of the semiconductor chip 2 could be further enhanced. However, known chip packages and manufacturing thereof that require large wire-bonding area and limit the space for interconnections in the semiconductor chip.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Reference will now be made in detail to the present embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.
FIG. 2A is a top-view of a semiconductor chip package according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view of AA′ line in FIG. 2A.
As illustrated on FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B, the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure includes a semiconductor chip 102, an isolation layer 104, a redistributing metal layer 106, and bonding pads 108. The semiconductor chip 102 has an upper surface US and a lower surface DS. The semiconductor chip 102 has first conducting pads 102a and first holes 102b. As shown in FIG. 2A, within the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip 102 has six first conducting pads 102a disposed on the lower surface DS, and six first holes 102b extending from the upper surface US to the lower surface DS. Those six first holes 102b are respectively corresponding to those six first conducting pads 102a, and expose those first conducting pads 102a disposed on the lower surface DS. The semiconductor chip 102, for example, could be active or passive elements, electronic components, optical-electronic devices, micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS), micro fluidic systems, physical sensors, image sensors, light emitting diodes (LED), solar cells, RF circuits, accelerators, gyroscopes, micro actuators, surface acoustic wave components, pressure sensors, ink printer heads. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The first conducting pads 102a of the semiconductor chip 102 could be respectively regarded as an input conducting pad or an output conducting pad (I/O pads) for signal communicating between integrated circuit in the semiconductor chip 102 and, for example, another chip and/or a printed circuit board (PCB). Therefore, the quantity of the first conducting pads 102a is not limited to six as illustrated in FIG. 2A. According to various demands or requirements, the quantity of the first conducting pads 102a could be well adjusted into more or fewer first conducting pads 102a distributed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102. The first conducting pad 102a could include single or multi-layers of metal such as aluminum, palladium, nickel, gold. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Referring to FIG. 2B, the isolation layer 104 extends from the upper surface US to the lower surface DS. Part of the isolation layer 104 is positioned in the first hole 102b. The isolation layer 104 has at least one opening to expose the first conducting pad 102a. The isolation layer 104 could include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, or other suitable isolating materials. The isolation layer 104 could be formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). However, the present disclosure is not limited to it. The redistributing metal layer 106 is disposed on the isolation layer 104. Referring to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B, the redistributing metal layer 106 has at least one redistributing metal line 106a corresponding to the first conducting pad 102a, and the redistributing metal line 106a is electrically connecting to the first conducting pad 102a through the opening. The redistributing metal layer 106 could include aluminum, copper, nickel, or other suitable conductive materials. The redistributing metal layer 106 could be formed by overall depositing the conductive materials on the isolation layer 104, and patterned by litho-etching processes to yield the redistributing metal lines 106a. As illustrated in FIG. 2A, each first conducting pad 102a is respectively corresponding to a redistributing metal line 106a. 
FIG. 2A is a top-view of the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2C is a cross-sectional view of BB′ line in FIG. 2A. Refer to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2C, the bonding pads 108 are also disposed on the isolation layer 104. The bonding pads 108 are positioned at a side of the semiconductor chip 102. The bonding pads 108 provide bonding sites of the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 2A, first bonding wires 110 are respectively bonded to the bonding pads 108. The bonding pads 108 could be formed in a similar way as aforementioned redistributing metal layer 106. The bonding pads 108 could be formed by overall depositing the conductive materials on the isolation layer 104, and patterned by litho-etching processes to yield the bonding pads 108 positioned at the side of the semiconductor chip 102. It should be noticed that the redistributing metal line 106a extends to the bonding pad 108 to electrically connect the bonding pad 108 positioned at the side and the first conducting pad 102a disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102. In various embodiments of the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip package 10 further includes at least one first bonding wire 110 and a printed circuit board 112. The first bonding wire 110 is electrically connected to the bonding pad 110. In other words, the bonding pads 108 positioned at the side of the semiconductor chip 102 could be further bonded to the first bonding wire 110 in following processes. As illustrated in FIG. 2C, the first bonding wire 110 extends from the bonding pad 108 to the printed circuit board 112 and is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 112. Therefore, the first conducting pad 102a disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 in the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure could be electrically connected to the printed circuit board 112 through the first bonding wire 110, the bonding pad 108, and the redistributing metal line 106a. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip 102 could be electrically connected to the printed circuit board 112 and perform signal communication with the printed circuit board 112 through the first conducting pads 102a (I/O conducting pad). Besides, the first bonding wires 110 could also be electrically connected to other semiconductor chips or other semiconductor interposer, such that the semiconductor chip 102 could be integrated with other semiconductor chips or other semiconductor interposers to form a 3D-IC stacking structure. One of various characteristics according to the present disclosure is that the special patterned redistributing metal layer 106 (the redistributing metal lines 106a formed by, for example, litho-etching processes) collects all electrical connection paths of the first conducting pads 102a distributed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 (as positioned at other three sides illustrated in FIG. 2A), and respectively electrically connects all of the first conducting pads 102a to the bonding pad 108 positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip 102. Accordingly, compared to prior arts illustrated in FIG. 1A, the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure has a denser bonding area, which is only positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip 102, than those of prior arts. Therefore, the throughput of bonding in the semiconductor chip package is significantly improved since the bonding process could be performed densely. Besides, the bonding process of the semiconductor chip package is simplified and becomes more efficient because the bonding process is performed at only one side of the semiconductor chip package. As illustrated in FIG. 2A and FIG. 2C, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the first conducting pad 102a is positioned at other side without being positioned at the side where the bonding pad 108 is positioned. In other words, the first bonding wires 110 of the semiconductor chip package 10 are not disposed in the first holes 102b, but are respectively disposed on the bonding pad 108 on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, a bonding-wire carrier is not necessary to dive into the first hole 102, which exposes the first conducting pad 102a, during the bonding process. The bonding-wire carrier could perform the bonding process by respectively bonding the first bonding wires 110 to the bonding pads 108, which are disposed on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, extra wire-bonding area is not required since the bonding-wire carrier only performs the bonding process on the upper surface US without diving into the first holes 102b. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip package 10 according various embodiments of the present disclosure retains more volume of the semiconductor chip 102 with a given area, and more volume of the semiconductor chip 102 offers more space for interconnections therein. Not only flexibility for design the interconnections within the semiconductor chip 102 is increased, but also capability of the semiconductor chip 102 is further improved. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip package 10 according to various embodiments of the present disclosure is capable to contain more interconnections within the semiconductor chip 102 so as to perform multi-functions. As illustrated in FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip package 10 further includes at least one dam structure 116, and a protective lid 118. The dam structure 116 is disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102. The dam structure 116 is sandwiched by the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, the first conducting pads 102a or other devices disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 could be further protected. The protective lid 118 could include glass, metal, ceramics, polymer materials, semiconductor materials, or combinations thereof. As illustrated in FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, the protective lid 118, the dam structure 116, and the semiconductor chip 102 mutually surround a closed space, and part of the semiconductor chip 102 could work in the closed space. The dam structure 116 could also include glass, metal, ceramics, polymer materials, semiconductor materials, or combinations thereof. The dam structure 116 could be fixed between the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102 by an adhesion layer. Or the dam structure 116 could be an adhesive polymer and fix itself between the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102 by curing processes such as being heated or applied UV.
FIG. 2D is side view of a semiconductor chip package according to other embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2D, in other embodiment of the present disclosure, the chip package further includes at least one third bonding wire 120, a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) 122, and a printed circuit board 124. The third bonding wire 120 is electrically connected to the first conducting pad 102a. The microelectromechanical system (MEMS) 122 is disposed below the lower surface DS. The third bonding wire 120 extends from the first conducting pad 102a, and is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 124. In addition, the microelectromechanical system (MEMS) 122 could be replaced by a semiconductor chip or an interposer. FIG. 2E is side view of a semiconductor chip package according to other embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2E, in other embodiment of the present disclosure, the chip package further includes at least one third bonding wire 120, at least one solder ball 128, a chip 126, and a printed circuit board 124. The third bonding wire 120 is electrically connected to the first conducting pad 102a. The solder ball 128 is electrically connected to the bonding pad 108. The chip 126 is electrically connected to the bonding pad 108 through the solder ball 128. The third bonding wire 120 extends from the first conducting pad 102a, and is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 124. The printed circuit board 124 also could be replaced by a semiconductor chip or an interposer. Therefore, the chip package according to various embodiments of the present disclosure could be properly combined with other semiconductor chips, interposers, and/or printed circuit boards such that the chip package could more flexibility in application and have multiple functions.

As illustrated in FIG. 3A, each first conducting pad 102a is respectively corresponding to a redistributing metal line 106a. 
FIG. 3A is a top-view of the semiconductor chip package 20 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 3C is a cross-sectional view of BB′ line in FIG. 3A. Refer to FIG. 3A and FIG. 3C, the bonding pads 108 are also disposed on the isolation layer 104. The bonding pads 108 are positioned at a side of the semiconductor chip 102. The bonding pads 108 provide bonding sites of the semiconductor chip package 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 3A, first bonding wires 110 are respectively bonded to the bonding pads 108. The bonding pads 108 could be formed in a similar way as aforementioned redistributing metal layer 106. The bonding pads 108 could be formed by overall depositing the conductive materials on the isolation layer 104, and patterned by litho-etching processes to yield the bonding pads 108 positioned at the side of the semiconductor chip 102. Similar to aforementioned first embodiment of the present disclosure, the redistributing metal line 106a extends to the bonding pad 108 to electrically connect the bonding pad 108 positioned at the side and the first conducting pad 102a disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102. In should be noticed that the second conducting pad 102c is disposed on the side where the bonding pad 108 is positioned. The second conducting pad 102c is exposed by the second hole 102d positioned at the same side. As shown in FIG. 3C, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip package 20 further includes at least one first bonding wire 110, at least one second bonding wire 114, and a printed circuit board (not shown). The first bonding wire 110 is electrically connected to the bonding pad 108. The second bonding wire 114 is electrically connected to the second conducting pad 102c.

The second conducting pad 102c and the bonding pad 108 positioned at the side of the semiconductor chip 102 could be further respectively bonded to the first bonding wire 110 and the second bonding wire 114 in following processes. Therefore, the first conducting pad 102a disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 in the semiconductor chip package 20 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure could be electrically connected to the printed circuit board through the first bonding wire 110. The second conducting pad 102c disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 in the semiconductor chip package 20 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure also could be electrically connected to the printed circuit board through the second bonding wire 114. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip 102 could be electrically connected to the printed circuit board 112 and perform signal communication with the printed circuit board respectively through the first conducting pads 102a and the second conducting pads 102c (I/O conducting pad). Besides, the first bonding wires 110 and/or the second bonding wires 114 could also be electrically connected to other semiconductor chips or other semiconductor interposer, such that the semiconductor chip 102 could be integrated with other semiconductor chips or other semiconductor interposers to form a 3D-IC stacking structure. Similar to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, the special patterned redistributing metal layer 106 (the redistributing metal lines 106a formed by, for example, litho-etching processes) collects all electrical connection paths of the first conducting pads 102a distributed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 (as positioned at other three sides illustrated in FIG. 3A), and respectively electrically connects all of the first conducting pads 102a to the bonding pad 108 positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip 102. Accordingly, compared to prior arts illustrated in FIG. 1A, the semiconductor chip package 20 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure has a denser bonding area, which is only positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip 102, than those of prior arts. Therefore, the throughput of bonding in the semiconductor chip package is significantly improved since the bonding process could be performed densely. Besides, the bonding process of the semiconductor chip package is simplified and becomes more efficient because the bonding process is performed at only one side of the semiconductor chip package. As illustrated in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3C, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the first conducting pad 102a is positioned at other side without being positioned at the side where the bonding pad 108 is positioned. In other words, the first bonding wires 110 of the semiconductor chip package 10 are not disposed in the first holes 102b, but are respectively disposed on the bonding pad 108 on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, a bonding-wire carrier is not necessary to dive into the first hole 102, which exposes the first conducting pad 102a, during the bonding process. The bonding-wire carrier could perform the bonding process by respectively bonding the first bonding wires 110 to the bonding pads 108, which are disposed on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, extra wire-bonding area is not required since the bonding-wire carrier only performs the bonding process on the upper surface US without diving into the first holes 102b. Before the bonding process for bonding the second bonding wires 114 to the second conducting pads 102c, proper etching process could be utilized to form an angle θ between a sidewall of the second hole 102d and the lower surface DS (as illustrated in FIG. 3C). The angle θ is substantially 55-65 degree. Therefore, the V-shaped sidewall of the second hole 102d provides sufficient space for the bonding-wire carrier to enter the second hole 102d, and bond the second bonding wire 114 to the second conducting pad 102d. As shown in FIG. 3C, the required bonding gap, which is the minimum distance between the second bonding wire 114 and sidewalls of the second hole 102d, could be reduced from substantially 200-300 μm to substantially 50 μm. In various embodiments of the present disclosure, the second bonding wire has a connection to the second conducting pad, and a distance b between the connection and sidewalls of the second hole is substantially greater than 50 μm. Therefore, compared to prior arts, less volume of the semiconductor chip 102 is reduced for the bonding process for bonding the second bonding wires 114 to the second conducting pads 102c. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip package 20 according various embodiments of the present disclosure retains more volume of the semiconductor chip 102 with a given area, and more volume of the semiconductor chip 102 offers more space for interconnections therein. Not only flexibility for design the interconnections within the semiconductor chip 102 is increased, but also capability of the semiconductor chip 102 is further improved. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip package 10 according to various embodiments of the present disclosure is capable to contain more interconnections within the semiconductor chip 102 so as to perform multi-functions. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 3B and FIG. 3C, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip package 20 further includes at least one dam structure 116, and a protective lid 118. The dam structure 116 is disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102. The dam structure 116 is sandwiched by the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, the first conducting pads 102a or other devices disposed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip 102 could be further protected. The protective lid 118 could include glass, metal, ceramics, polymer materials, semiconductor materials, or combinations thereof. As illustrated in FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, the protective lid 118, the dam structure 116, and the semiconductor chip 102 mutually surround a closed space, and part of the semiconductor chip 102 could work in the closed space. The dam structure 116 could also include glass, metal, ceramics, polymer materials, semiconductor materials, or combinations thereof. The dam structure 116 could be fixed between the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102 by an adhesion layer. Or the dam structure 116 could be an adhesive polymer and fix itself between the protective lid 118 and the semiconductor chip 102 by curing processes such as being heated or applied UV.
It should be noticed that the special patterned redistributing metal layer (the redistributing metal lines) collects all electrical connection paths of the first conducting pads distributed on the lower surface DS of the semiconductor chip and respectively electrically connects all of the first conducting pads to the bonding pad positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip. Therefore, the semiconductor chip package according various embodiments of the present disclosure has a denser bonding area, which is only positioned at one side of the semiconductor chip 102, than those of prior arts. The bonding process of the semiconductor chip package is simplified and becomes more efficient because the bonding process is performed at only one side of the semiconductor chip package. Also in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the first bonding wires are not disposed in the first holes, but are respectively disposed on the bonding pad on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip. Therefore, a bonding-wire carrier is not necessary to dive into the first hole, and the bonding-wire carrier could perform the bonding process by respectively bonding the first bonding wires 110 to the bonding pads 108, which are disposed on the upper surface US of the semiconductor chip 102. Therefore, extra wire-bonding area is not required since the bonding-wire carrier only performs the bonding process on the upper surface US without diving into the first holes. Accordingly, the semiconductor chip package according various embodiments of the present disclosure retains more volume of the semiconductor chip, and offers more space for interconnections therein. Not only flexibility for design the interconnections within the semiconductor chip is increased, but also capability of the semiconductor chip is further improved.
Although the present invention has been described in considerable detail with reference to certain embodiments thereof, other embodiments are possible. Therefore, the spirit and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the embodiments contained herein.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention.
