should be increased while the epoxy weight (M) and epoxy contact angel at substrate
(θ ) should be reduced.
7.10 Conclusions
In summary, we briefly overviewed the general TSV wafer fabrication processes and
dived into the fundamentals and failures of temporary wafer bonding and debonding,
laser scribe, wafer saw dicing, die pick and place, chip attach and underfill processes.
Understanding the temporary wafer bonding and debonding and die preparation
process mechanisms and fundamentals is key to deliver a high yield and reliable
process for 3D packaging.
