And (3) photoetching process: the photoetching is a process technology which transfers a circuit pattern to the surface of a dielectric layer by utilizing an optical-chemical reaction principle and chemical and physical etching methods to form an effective pattern window or a functional pattern.
The sputtering process is one kind of physical vapor deposition. Ar ions are accelerated to fly to a cathode target under the action of an electric field and bombard the surface of the target at high energy, so that atoms or molecules near the surface of the solid obtain enough energy and finally escape from the surface of the solid, and the target is sputtered. In the sputtered particles, neutral target atoms or molecules are deposited on the substrate to form a thin film.
The electroplating process comprises the following steps: copper electroplating is the process of plating a layer of copper on some solid surfaces using the principle of electrolysis. The anode and the cathode of the metal lead power supply are interconnected with the anode and the cathode of the plating bath to form an electric field between the two electrodes. Under the action of the electric field, cations flow to the cathode, anions flow to the anode, and the cations are deposited on the surface of the cathode to form a coating. Generally, before electroplating, a seed layer is sputtered on the surface of the substrate 100 to facilitate current loading of the electroplating electrode. Firstly, sputtering a seed layer Ti/Cu on the surface of a wafer, carrying out thick resist photoetching to serve as an electroplating mold, electroplating copper to form a copper wire, removing the photoresist, and corroding the seed layer to obtain the copper wiring.

The redistribution layer 300 includes at least one metal layer to form a layer-wound inductor. It will be appreciated that to form a layer wound inductor, the metal layer is in the form of a horizontal winding spiral, such as in fig. 5 and 6.
The redistribution layer 300 may use wire bonding, ball mounting, or BUMP processes to extract signals.
The integrated passive device 200 includes an inductor, the metal layer of the redistribution layer 300 is located directly above the inductor, and the deviation does not exceed 10% of the minimum line width of the sixth metal layer 346 of the redistribution layer 300 wound around the inductor.

s101 forms a resistive layer 211 on the substrate 100 by metal sputtering, photolithography, and ion etching processes, and deposits a first dielectric layer 221 thereon.
Specifically, the resistive target material is bombarded with ions by a metal sputtering process, so that the resistive material uniformly drops and is densely deposited on the surface of the substrate 100. The pattern of the resistive layer 211 is transferred to the surface of the wafer by a photolithography process, the resistive layer 211 is etched by an ion etching method, and an oxide dielectric layer is deposited thereon to form a first dielectric layer 221.

S103, depositing a first metal layer 241 on the first dielectric layer 221, connecting the first metal layer 241 with the substrate 100 and the resistor layer 211 through the first through hole 231, etching the first metal layer 241 pattern as a capacitor bottom plate through the photoetching and etching process, and depositing a second dielectric layer 222 on the surface of the first metal layer 241 as a capacitor dielectric layer.
Specifically, thin metal is deposited on the surface of the wafer, a metal layer pattern is etched through a photolithography process and an etching process to be used as a bottom plate of the capacitor, i.e., the first metal layer 241, and a dense dielectric layer is deposited on the surface of the metal to be used as a dielectric layer of the capacitor, i.e., the second dielectric layer 222.
S104, depositing a second metal layer 242 on the second dielectric layer 222, etching the second metal layer 242 pattern as the upper bottom plate of the capacitor by photoetching and etching processes, and depositing a third dielectric layer 223 thereon.
Specifically, a thin metal layer is deposited on the wafer surface, a metal layer pattern is etched through a photolithography process and an etching process to serve as an upper bottom plate of the capacitor, i.e., a second metal layer 242 is formed, and a thicker dielectric layer is deposited thereon to form the third dielectric layer 223.
S105, etching a second via 232 on the third dielectric layer 223 by photolithography and etching processes, wherein the second via 232 exposes a portion of the second metal layer 242, and continuously etching a third metal layer 243 pattern thereon by photolithography and etching processes.

S106, a second through hole 232 and a third metal layer 243 seed layer are sputtered through a metal sputtering process, the second through hole 232 and the third metal layer 243 are completed through an electroplating process, finally, the surface of the wafer is flattened through chemical mechanical polishing, and a fourth dielectric layer 224 is deposited on the wafer.
Specifically, the second via hole 232 and the third metal layer 243 are sputtered by a metal sputtering process, the second via hole 232 and the third metal layer 243 are completed together by an electroplating process, finally, the wafer surface is planarized by CMP (chemical mechanical polishing), and a thicker dielectric layer is deposited thereon as the fourth dielectric layer 224.

For clarity, the substrate 100 is used to replace a product before the previous step S107, and it should be noted that the fifth dielectric layer 225 in the IPD step S107 needs to be correspondingly improved, specifically, the thickness of the fifth dielectric layer 225 is increased from less than 1 μm to 3 μm to 5 μm, and an error is strictly controlled, where the error is less than 10% of the thickness of the fifth dielectric layer, so as to reduce the influence on the performance uniformity. It is understood that the present process continues to manufacture after the thickness of the fifth dielectric layer 225 on the chip surface is improved based on the previous process S107. The thickness of the fifth dielectric layer 225 on the surface of the chip is improved to be beneficial to: a thicker surface dielectric layer may protect the surface of the early completed integrated passive device S100 wafer.

S204 repeats S202, and a seventh metal layer 347 is formed, the bonding process goes to S205, and the ball mounting process goes to S206.
S205 spin-coating a ninth dielectric layer 329 on the surface of the seventh metal layer 347 to form a seventh via 337, wherein the seventh via 337 exposes a portion of the seventh metal layer 347, and fabricating an eighth metal layer 348 as a pad in the seventh via 337 through metal plating and etching processes.
S206BUMP361 processes the seventh metal layer 347 as a UBM (Under BUMP361metal layer), and a copper pillar, a BUMP361 or an implanted ball is plated on the seventh metal layer 347 through a plating process.
Preferably, S207 is further included to thin the back side of the substrate 100. Thinning the substrate 100 after all the processes is completed can reduce the size of the finished device while preventing the wafer from being broken due to excessive thinning during processing.
Further preferably, the seventh dielectric layer 327, the eighth dielectric layer 328, and the ninth dielectric layer 329 are made of PI (polyimide) or BCB (benzocyclobutene).
It is further preferred that the sixth metal layer 346 be aligned with the fourth metal layer 244 with no deviation in alignment accuracy exceeding 10% of the line width of the sixth metal layer 346. The alignment error will affect the inductance accuracy of the inductor wound with the combined RDL sixth metal layer 346, IPD third metal layer 243, and IPD fourth metal layer 244.
The thickness of the sixth metal layer 346 is preferably greater than 3 μm.
In the conventional RDL process, PAD locations are usually re-arranged and then ball-mounted in the WLCSP package, which mainly plays a role in newly allocating PAD locations. In the conventional RDL process, the seventh dielectric layer 327 and the eighth dielectric layer 328 play roles in isolating metal and buffering stress, and the thickness control precision grade can be obtained for several times. The process needs to accurately control the thicknesses of the seventh dielectric layer 327 and the eighth dielectric layer 328, the thicknesses of the seventh dielectric layer 327 and the eighth dielectric layer 328 are 5-10 μm, the error is controlled to be less than 10% of the thickness of the dielectric, and the performance consistency is affected by overlarge error. The thicknesses of the seventh dielectric layer 327 and the eighth dielectric layer 328 are parameters adjusted during device design, and may have an influence on device performance. The process utilizes the RDL process to increase the number of thick metal layers in the traditional integrated circuit process, can wind inductors with more turns, has smaller inductor area with the same inductance value, reduces the area and improves the integration level of devices. Meanwhile, the process utilizes the fact that a metal layer in the RDL process can be thicker, the photoetching and metal deposition accuracy is poor compared with the chip process, good metal connection loss can be obtained at low cost, and the performance of an integrated passive device is improved.
Compared with the conventional integrated passive device process (IPD), the process for preparing a low-pass filter has the advantages that fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the conventional integrated passive device prepared by the IPD process, and fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of the integrated passive device prepared by the process. As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the insertion loss performance of the pass filter is improved by > 10% and the suppression performance is improved by > 10% by the process.
In conclusion, the invention combines the existing semiconductor integrated passive device process with the packaging RDL (RDL) process, breaks through the limitation of few thick metal layers (1-2 layers) and metal thickness in the mature process of the integrated circuit, adds 1-3 layers of routable metal layers in combination with the RDL process, and forms richer laminated structures, thereby realizing the functions of winding low-loss and high inductance per unit area and connecting and routing, improving the design flexibility of the passive integrated device, and improving the performance and the integration level of the integrated passive device.
