METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING SEMICONDUCTOR PACKAGE TENSILE STRESS

摘要

A semiconductor package is provided having reduced tensile stress. The semiconductor package includes a package substrate and a semiconductor die. The semiconductor die is coupled electrically and physically to the package substrate and includes a stress relieving layer incorporated therein. The stress relieving layer has a predetermined structure and a predetermined location within the semiconductor die for reducing tensile stress of the semiconductor package during heating and cooling of the semiconductor package.
