WLCSP package with different solder volumes
11581280 · 2023-02-14 · ·

The present disclosure is directed to a wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP) with various combinations of contacts and Under Bump Metallizations (UBMs) having different structures and different amounts solder coupled to the contacts and UBMs. Although the contacts have different structures and the volume of solder differs, the total standoff height along the WLCSP remains substantially the same. Each portion of solder coupled to each respective contact and UBM includes a point furthest away from an active surface of a die of the WLCSP. Each point of each respective portion of solder is co-planar with each other respective point of the other respective portions of solder. Additionally, the contacts with various and different structures are positioned accordingly on the active surface of the die of the WLCSP.

Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor
11545428 · 2023-01-03 · ·

A method of forming a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor with copper top and bottom plates may begin with a copper interconnect layer (e.g., Cu MTOP) including a copper structure defining the capacitor bottom plate. A passivation region is formed over the bottom plate, and a wide top plate opening is etched in the passivation region, to expose the bottom plate. A dielectric layer is deposited into the top plate opening and onto the exposed bottom plate. Narrow via opening(s) are then etched in the passivation region. The wide top plate opening and narrow via opening(s) are concurrently filled with copper to define a copper top plate and copper via(s) in contact with the bottom plate. A first aluminum bond pad is formed on the copper top plate, and a second aluminum bond pad is formed in contact with the copper via(s) to provide a conductive coupling to the bottom plate.
