One or more embodiments are directed to semiconductor packages and methods in which one or more electrical components are positioned between a semiconductor die and a surface of a substrate. In one embodiment, a semiconductor package includes a substrate having a first surface. One or more electrical components are electrically coupled to electrical contacts on the first surface of the substrate. A semiconductor die is positioned on the one or more electrical components, and the semiconductor die has an active surface that faces away from the substrate. An adhesive layer is on the first surface of the substrate and on the one or more electrical components, and the semiconductor die is spaced apart from the one or more electrical components by the adhesive layer. Wire bonds are provided that electrically couples the active surface of the semiconductor die to the substrate.

A method of manufacturing a light source device includes: disposing bumps containing a first metal on a first substrate which is thermally conductive; disposing a bonding member on the bumps, the bonding member containing Au—Sn alloy; disposing a light emitting element on the bumps and the bonding member; and heating the first substrate equipped with the bumps, the bonding member, and the light emitting element.

In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, a plurality of first provisional fixing portions are supplied on a front surface of a substrate such that the plurality of first provisional fixing portions are spaced from each other and thus dispersed. A first solder layer processed into a plate to be a first soldering portion is disposed in contact with the plurality of first provisional fixing portions. A semiconductor chip is disposed on the first solder layer. In addition a conductive member in the form of a flat plate is disposed thereon via a second provisional fixing portion and a second solder layer. A reflow process is performed to solder the substrate, the semiconductor chip and the conductive member together.

A packaged semiconductor device and a method and apparatus for forming the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method includes bonding a device die to a first surface of a substrate; depositing an adhesive on the first surface of the substrate; depositing a thermal interface material on a surface of the device die opposite the substrate; placing a lid over the device die and the substrate, the lid contacting the adhesive and the thermal interface material; applying a clamping force to the lid and the substrate; and while applying the clamping force, curing the adhesive and the thermal interface material.

In one example, a semiconductor device includes a substrate comprising a conductive structure including internal terminals over a substrate first side and external terminals over a substrate second side coupled to the internal terminals. An electronic component includes an electronic component first side, an electronic component second side opposite to the electronic component first side, and an electronic component lateral side connecting the electronic component first side to the electronic component second side. The electronic component second side is coupled to one or more of the internal terminals. A guide structure is over the substrate first side and can include an inner portion that is laterally inward from the electronic component lateral side and an outer portion that is laterally outward from the electronic component lateral side. An underfill is interposed between the electronic component second side and the substrate first side and is over the guide structure.

In a soldering structure, a power module having the same, and a method for manufacturing the power module configured for constantly determining a height of a power module when the power module is manufactured, the soldering structure may include a soldering target portion; a metal layer including a bonding surface having a bonding region in which the soldering target portion is bonded by solder; and at least one wire located in the solder within the bonding region.

An apparatus for manufacturing packaged semiconductor devices includes a lower plate having package platforms and clamp guide pins to align an upper plate with the lower plate, and a boat tray having windows configured to receive package devices, and a plurality of upper plates configured to be aligned to respective windows and respective package platforms. Clamping force can be applied by fasteners configured to generate a downward force upon the upper plate. Package devices on the platforms are thus subjected to a clamping force. Load cells measure the clamping force so adjustments can be made.
