Abstract
The invention is based on the discovery that certain well-defined b-stageable adhesives are useful in stacked die assemblies. In particular, the invention provides assemblies wherein the b-stageable adhesive encapsulates a portion of the wiring members contained within the bondline gap between the stacked die. In other words, the b-stageable adhesive has the ability to flow through (i.e., encapsulate) the wires as the adhesive fills the bondline gap, thereby preventing any mold compound from covering the wires.
Claims7
A semiconductor die assembly comprising:
- a) a substrate having wiring members extending from pads on the substrate for electrically connecting a die to the substrate,
- b) a bottom die having a rear surface and a front surface, wherein the rear surface faces the substrate, and wherein the front surface of the bottom die has electrical pads for attaching a wiring member from the substrate, and wherein a first die-attach adhesive is disposed between the substrate and the bottom die,
- c) at least one first top die having a rear surface and a front surface, wherein the first top die is positioned above the bottom die so that the rear surface of the first top die is facing the front surface of the bottom die, thereby creating a first bondline gap between the bottom die and the top die, wherein a portion of the wiring members extending from the electrical pads on the front surface of the bottom die are located within the first bondline gap, and
- d) a second die-attach adhesive disposed between the bottom die and the top die, thereby filling the first bondline gap and creating a first bondline, and encapsulating the portion of the wiring members located within the first bondline.
