Current portable electronic products are driving component packaging towards 3D packaging technologies for integrating multiple memory die and application processors (AP). Among the 3D technologies, Package-on-Package (PoP) is increasingly becoming mainstream due to its flexibility of combination and sourcing. Moreover, device designs require functional integration of IC's, especially in the 3rd dimension, hence driving new technology development towards making IC components “thin and thinner”. eWLB (embedded Wafer Level Ball Grid Array) has been introduced into production to allow for higher ball count WLP, by extending the package size beyond the area of the chip. There is also great opportunity related to a 3D variation of eWLB which would allow for mounting of components or another package on the top surface with thinner profile and Package-on-Package (eWBL-PoP) technology. 3D PoP-eWLB is envisioned as an exciting technology which will open up the floodgates for system level integration utilizing very thin stacked eWLB packages as building blocks in mobile applications. This paper reports developments that are aimed to extend the low profile PoP application with eWLB + PoP technology. Test vehicle is designed and fabricated to demonstrate to be thin and 3D PoP solution for mobile and portable electronics. Assembly process details including laser ablation and interconnects process and mechanical characterizations are to be discussed with component and board level reliability results. Innovative package structures optimization that provide dual advantages of both form factor reduction and enhanced package reliability are reported. To enable higher interconnection density and signal routing, package with multi layer redistribution (RDL) and 10um/10um line width/spacing is fabricated and implemented on eWLB platform. Successful reliability characterization results on low profile PoP package configurations are reported that demonstrate eWLB-PoP as an enabling technology for miniaturized, low profile and cost-effective 3D PoP.
