Patterned die attach and packaging method using the same

摘要

A semiconductor die is attached to a packaging substrate by a patterned layer of conductive metal that includes voids. The voids provide a space into which the metal may expand when heated in order to avoid placing mechanical stress on the bonds caused by mismatches in the thermal coefficients of thermal expansion of the die, the conductive metal bond layer and the substrate. An additional coating of conductive metal may be flowed over the bond lines to reinforce the bonds.
