SEMICONDUCTOR PACKAGE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17806311 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR PACKAGE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a semiconductor package that includes an integrated circuit die mounted to an interposer using connection structures. The package also includes an underfill material between the die and the interposer, which includes shaped fillets that are below the bottom surface of the die. These shaped fillets help reduce the likelihood of stresses and strains that could damage the mold compound from transferring to the mold compound from the underfill material, die, and interposer. This improves the quality and reliability of the semiconductor package, potentially increasing the yield and decreasing the cost.

Original Abstract Submitted
Some implementations described herein provide a semiconductor package including an integrated circuit die mounted to an interposer using connection structures. An underfill material between the integrated circuit die and the interposer includes shaped fillets that are below a plane corresponding to a bottom surface of the integrated circuit die. The underfill material including the shaped fillets reduces a likelihood of stresses and/or strains that damage a mold compound from transferring to the mold compound from the underfill material, the integrated circuit die, and/or the interposer. In this way, a quality and reliability of the semiconductor package including the underfill material with the shaped fillets is reduced. By improving the quality and reliability of the semiconductor package, a yield of the semiconductor package may increase to decrease a cost of the semiconductor package.
