Apparatus for dicing interposer assembly

Abstract

Apparatus for performing dicing of die on wafer interposers. Apparatuses are disclosed for use with the methods of dicing an interposer having integrated circuit dies mounted thereon. An apparatus includes a wafer carrier mounted in a frame and having a size corresponding to a silicon interposer, a fixture mounted to the wafer carrier and comprising a layer of material to provide mechanical support to the die side of the silicon interposer, the fixture being patterned to fill spaces between integrated circuit dies mounted on an interposer; and an adhesive tape disposed on a surface of the fixture for adhering to the surface of a silicon interposer. Additional alternative apparatuses are disclosed.
