Semiconductor die mount by conformal die coating
First Claim
1. A method for affixing a die onto a support, comprising:
- placing the die onto the support;
providing a standoff between a die attach surface of the die and a die mount surface of the support; and
conformally coating to coat at least the die attach surface of the die and the die mount surface of the support including forming a polymer in situ with vapor deposition in a space between the die attach surface of the die and the die mount surface of the support.

Abstract
A conformal coating on a semiconductor die provides adhesion between the die and a support. No additional adhesive is necessary to affix the die on the support. The conformal coating protects the die during assembly, and serves to electrically insulate the die from electrically conductive parts that the die may contact. The conformal coating may be an organic polymer, such as a parylene, for example. Also, a method for adhering a die onto a support, which may optionally be another die, includes providing a coating of a conformal between the die and the support, and heating the coating between the die and the support. The conformal coating may be provided on a die attach area of a surface of the die, or on a die mount region of a surface of the support, or on both a die attach area of a surface of the die and on a die mount region of a surface of the support; and the conformal coating may be provided following placement of the die on the support.
