The semiconductor device includes a chip having an active surface and an opposing non-active surface, wherein a plurality of bond pads are formed on the active surface, and first metal layers are formed on the bond pads and to edges of the non-active surface; conductive traces disposed on the non-active surface of the chip; a dielectric layer covering sides of the chip and formed with a plurality of openings therein to expose a portion of the conductive traces; and a plurality of second metal layers formed in the openings of the dielectric layer and on the first metal layers, such that the bond pads are electrically connected to the conductive traces via the first and second metal layers.10-23-2008
20080265385Semiconductor package using copper wires and wire bonding method for the same - A semiconductor package using copper wires and a wire bonding method for the same are proposed. The package includes a carrier having fingers and a chip mounted on the carrier. The method includes implanting stud bumps on the fingers of the carrier and electrically connecting the chip and the carrier by copper wires with one ends of the copper wires being bonded to bond pads of the chip and the other ends of the copper wires being bonded to the stud bumps on the carrier. The implanted stud bumps on the carrier improve bondability of the copper wires to the carrier and thus prevent stitch lift. With good bonding, residues of copper wires left behind after a bonding process have even tail ends and uniform tail length to enable fabrication of solder balls of uniform size, thereby eliminating a conventional step of implanting stud bumps on the bond pads of chips and preventing ball lift from occurring.10-30-2008
