Description

Semiconductor Package Structure

technical field

The invention relates to semiconductor packaging technology, in particular to a semiconductor packaging structure.

Background technique

As the demand for more functions and smaller devices continues to increase, package-on-package (PoP) technology, in which two or more packages are stacked vertically, is becoming more and more popular. PoP technology reduces the length of wires between different components such as controllers and storage devices. This provides better electrical performance as shorter interconnect routing results in faster signal propagation and reduces noise and crosstalk artifacts.

Although existing semiconductor packaging structures are generally adequate, they are not satisfactory in every respect. For example, meeting channel requirements for integrating different components into one package is a challenge. Therefore, there is a need to further improve semiconductor package structures to provide flexibility in channel design.

The rear-focused wiring layer is disposed above the stack structure. The first IP core is configured in the stack structure and is electrically coupled to the front-side wiring layer through the first routing channel. The second IP core is configured in the stack structure and is electrically coupled to the rear focusing wiring layer through the second routing channel, wherein the second routing channel is separated from the first routing channel and is electrically insulated from the front focusing wiring layer.

According to some embodiments, there is provided a semiconductor wiring structure. The semiconductor wiring structure includes a first package structure, a first wiring channel and a second wiring channel.
