Samsung patents stacked chip design with uneven glue layers

Samsung describes a method for building a semiconductor package by stacking multiple chips using adhesive layers. The process involves cutting one adhesive layer so its top surface sits lower than the bottom of the chip placed above it.

Why it mattersThis filing details a specific manufacturing technique for stacking chips, which is a standard part of how modern processors and memory are assembled.

In the filing’s own words

A method of fabricating a semiconductor package includes forming a first semiconductor chip; forming a lower adhesion layer and a second semiconductor chip on the first semiconductor chip; cutting the lower adhesion layer to form a first cutting surface of the lower adhesion layer; and forming an upper adhesion layer and a third semiconductor chip on the second semiconductor chip. A level of an uppermost part of the first cutting surface is lower than a level of a lower surface of the third semiconductor chip.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method of fabricating a semiconductor package, the method comprising: forming a first semiconductor chip; forming a lower adhesion layer and a second semiconductor chip on the first semiconductor chip; cutting the lower adhesion layer to form a first cutting surface of the lower adhesion layer; and forming an upper adhesion layer and a third semiconductor chip on the second semiconductor chip, wherein a level of an uppermost part of the first cutting surface is lower than a level of a lower surface of the third semiconductor chip.
