Patent ID: 10672626

Abstract:
Embodiments describe a semiconductor package that includes a substrate, a die bonded to the substrate, and a solder paste overmold layer formed over a top surface of the die. In an embodiment, the solder paste comprises a high-melting point metal, a solder matrix, intermetallic compounds and a polymer. The overmold layer has a high elastic modulus, a coefficient of thermal expansion similar to the substrate, and reduces the warpage of the package. In an embodiment, interconnects of a semiconductor package are formed with a no-slump solder paste that includes vents. Vents may be formed through a conductive network formed by the high-melting point metal, solder matrix and intermetallic compounds. In an embodiment, vents provide a path through the interconnect that allows for moisture outgassing. In an embodiment, a mold layer may be mechanically anchored to the interconnects by the vents, thereby providing improved mechanical continuity to the mold layer.
