INTEGRATED CIRCUIT PACKAGES AND METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18150256 titled 'INTEGRATED CIRCUIT PACKAGES AND METHODS

Simplified Explanation

The integrated circuit package described in the abstract includes integrated circuit dies with slanted sidewalls, forming a unique structure that allows for efficient packaging and interconnectivity. Here are some key points to explain the patent/innovation:

  • The package includes a first integrated circuit die with a first substrate and a first interconnect structure on the bottom surface.
  • A first gap-fill dielectric layer surrounds the first integrated circuit die, providing insulation and support.
  • A second integrated circuit die is positioned underneath the first die, with a second gap-fill dielectric layer around it.
  • The slanted sidewalls of the dies create angles that optimize the space and interconnectivity within the package.

Original Abstract Submitted

An integrated circuit package including integrated circuit dies with slanted sidewalls and a method of forming are provided. The integrated circuit package may include a first integrated circuit die, a first gap-fill dielectric layer around the first integrated circuit die, a second integrated circuit die underneath the first integrated circuit die, and a second gap-fill dielectric layer around the second integrated circuit die. The first integrated circuit die may include a first substrate, wherein a first angle is between a first sidewall of the first substrate and a bottom surface of the first substrate, and a first interconnect structure on the bottom surface of the first substrate, wherein a second angle is between a first sidewall of the first interconnect structure and the bottom surface of the first substrate. The first angle may be larger than the second angle.
