Substrate for producing semiconductor packages

摘要

A parent or master substrate for a semiconductor package is provided, which can provide a plurality of unit substrates by cutting into pieces for producing a semiconductor device. The parent substrate includes an insulation layer, conductor patterns formed on first and second surfaces of the insulation layer, and PSR (photo solder resist) layers respectively formed on the first and second surfaces of the insulation layers and covering the conductor patterns. The parent substrate includes an upper part and a lower part divided by a reference surface which passes through the center of the insulation layer. When an equivalent thermal expansion coefficient alpha_upper of the upper part is defined by the Equation of ${\mathrm{alpha}}_{\mathrm{upper}}=\frac{\sum _{i=1}^n{\mathrm{alpha}}_{i}x{E}_{i}x{v}_i}{\sum _{i=1}^n{E}_{i}x{v}_i},$ where alpha_i is respective thermal expansion coefficients of, E_i is respective elastic moduli of, and v_i is respective volume ratios of first through n^th components constituting the upper part (e.g., insulation layer, conductor patterns, and PSR layers of the upper part), and an equivalent thermal expansion coefficient alpha_lower of the lower part is defined by the Equation of ${\mathrm{alpha}}_{\mathrm{lower}}=\frac{\sum _{j=1}^m{\mathrm{alpha}}_{j}x{E}_{j}x{v}_j}{\sum _{j=1}^m{E}_{j}x{v}_j},$ where alpha_j is respective thermal expansion coefficients of, E_j is respective elastic moduli of, and v_j is respective volume ratios of first through m^th components constituting the lower part (e.g., insulation layer, conductor patterns, and PSR layers of the lower part), a equivalent thermal expansion ratio (alpha_upper/alpha_lower) of alpha_upper to alpha_lower is selected to be within a range of 0.975 through 1.165.
