A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes a preparation step and a sinter bonding step. In the preparation step, a sinter-bonding work having a multilayer structure including a substrate, semiconductor chips, and sinter-bonding material layers is prepared. The semiconductor chips are disposed on, and will bond to, one side of the substrate. Each sinter-bonding material layer contains sinterable particles and is disposed between each semiconductor chip and the substrate. In the sinter bonding step, a cushioning sheet having a thickness of 5 to 5000 μm and a tensile elastic modulus of 2 to 150 MPa is placed on the sinter-bonding work, the resulting stack is held between a pair of pressing faces, and, in this state, the sinter-bonding work between the pressing faces undergoes a heating process while being pressurized in its lamination direction, to form a sintered layer from each sinter-bonding material layer.

Apparatuses relating generally to a microelectronic package having protection from interference are disclosed. In an apparatus thereof, a substrate has an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface and has a ground plane. A first microelectronic device is coupled to the upper surface of the substrate. Wire bond wires are coupled to the ground plane for conducting the interference thereto and extending away from the upper surface of the substrate. A first portion of the wire bond wires is positioned to provide a shielding region for the first microelectronic device with respect to the interference. A second portion of the wire bond wires is not positioned to provide the shielding region. A second microelectronic device is coupled to the substrate and located outside of the shielding region. A conductive surface is over the first portion of the wire bond wires for covering the shielding region.

An SIP module includes a plurality of electrical components mounted to an interconnect substrate. The electrical components and interconnect substrate are covered by an encapsulant. A conductive post is formed through the encapsulant. A plurality of openings is formed in the encapsulant by laser in a form of a circuit pattern. A conductive material is deposited over a surface of the encapsulant and into the openings to form an electrical circuit pattern. A portion of the conductive material is removed by a grinder to expose the electrical circuit pattern. The grinding operation planarizes the surface of the encapsulant and the electrical circuit pattern. The electrical circuit pattern can be a trace, contact pad, RDL, or other interconnect structure. The electrical circuit pattern can also be a shielding layer or antenna. An electrical component is disposed over the SIP module and electrical circuit pattern.

An electronic device which can suppress peeling off and damaging of the bonding material is provided. The electronic device includes an electronic component, a mounting portion, and a bonding material. The electronic component has an element front surface and an element back surface separated in the z-direction. The mounting portion has a mounting surface opposed to the element back surface on which the electronic component is mounted. The bonding material bonds the electronic component to the mounting portion. The bonding material includes a base portion and a fillet portion. The base portion is held between the electronic component and the mounting portion in the z-direction. The fillet portion is connected to the base portion and is formed outside the electronic component when seen in the z-direction. The electronic component includes two element lateral surface and ridges. The ridges are intersections of the two element lateral surface and extend in the z-direction. The fillet portion includes a ridge cover portion which covers at least a part of the ridges.

A multifaceted capillary that can be used in a wire-bonding machine to create a multi-segment wire-bond is disclosed. The multifaceted capillary is shaped to apply added pressure and thickness to an outer segment of the multi-segment wire-bond that is closest to the wire loop. The added pressure eliminates a gap under a heel portion of the multi-segment wire-bond and the added thickness increases a mechanical strength of the heel portion. As a result, a pull test of the multi-segment wire-bond may be higher than a single-segment wire-bond and the multi-segment wire-bond may resist cracking, lifting, or breaking.
