The subject matter of each is incorporated by reference herewith in entirety. The present invention relates to a semiconductor device which makes flip chip connection of a semiconductor chip on a wiring substrate, and forms a heat spreader on a back surface of this semiconductor chip, and its manufacturing method. A semiconductor device which makes flip chip connection of the semiconductor chip via the bump on the wiring substrate is proposed. The gap of the semiconductor chip and the wiring substrate is filled up with under-filling resin in this semiconductor device. In order to make heat radiation property high, a heat spreader is formed on the back surface of the semiconductor chip. In order to reinforce a wiring substrate and to maintain the surface smoothness of a heat spreader conventionally, a stiffener (reinforcing plate) was formed (for example, refer to Patent Reference 1). What formed the build-up substrate by soft resin coating or a soft film being conventionally stuck on both sides of the hard core substrate containing a glass cloth was used as a wiring substrate. And wirings of fine pitch were formed in the build-up substrate. However, since the build-up substrate was soft, the rigidity of the wiring substrate itself was not high. [Patent Reference 1] Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2003-51568 Since a conventional wiring substrate does not have high rigidity as mentioned above, when the stiffener is omitted for cost reduction, and the shape is made to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface, the wiring substrate of the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip becomes the shape where, although a very portion is covered by under-filling resin, the most exposes, and twist and distortion of the wiring substrate generate. Hereby, there were problems that the solder ball joined to the under surface of the wiring substrate floated, or a stress was applied to the edge of the semiconductor chip. There was a problem that the adhesion of a semiconductor chip, a wiring substrate, and under-filling may not be good, and the gap of the semiconductor chip and the wiring substrate was not fully filled up with under-filling resin. And in an argon spatter, argon etc. could not fully be supplied to the narrow gap of the semiconductor chip and the wiring substrate, and the adhesion of the gap concerned has not fully been improved. When the stiffener is omitted for cost reduction, the shape is made to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface, and heat radiation resin is thin, a crack and a damage will enter into the semiconductor chip easily. On the other hand, when heat radiation resin is thick, the divergence characteristics of heat will worsen. Therefore, it is necessary to control the thickness of heat radiation resin with high precision. In the case that the stiffener is omitted, and the shape is made to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface, when a solder ball is formed on the under surface of the wiring substrate, and doing an electric test of the wiring substrate and the semiconductor chip after that, there was also a problem of the heat spreader having hit a formation instrument and a test instrument, and damaging. The present invention was made in order to solve the above problems. The first purpose is to obtain a semiconductor device which can prevent the generation of twist and distortion of a wiring substrate, even when the stiffener is omitted. The second purpose is to obtain a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device which can improve the filling factor of the under-filling resin in the gap of a semiconductor chip and a wiring substrate. The third purpose is to obtain a semiconductor device which can control the thickness of heat radiation resin with high precision, when the shape is made to omit the stiffener and to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface. The fourth purpose is to obtain a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device which can prevent a heat spreader's hitting a formation instrument and a test instrument, and damaging in the case of formation of a solder ball, or an electric test, even when the shape is made to omit the stiffener and to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface.

Even when the shape is made to have a clearance between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface, a heat spreader's hitting a formation instrument and a test instrument, and damaging can be prevented in the case of formation of a solder ball. Hereafter, the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device concerning Embodiment 1 of the present invention is explained using drawings. This wiring substrate 10 puts build-up substrates 12 And core substrate 11 and build-up substrates 12 As insulating resin, for example polysulfone, polyether sulfone, polyphenyl sulfone, polyphthalamide, polyamidoimide, polyketone, polyacetal, polyimide, polycarbonate, modified polyphenylene ether, polybutylene terephthalate, polyarylate, polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, polyetheretherketone, tetrafluoroethylene, epoxy, bismaleimide system resin, etc. can be used. Through hole 13 is formed in core substrate 11 by the drill. The diameter of through hole 13 is 100-300 μm, and is 200 μm here. And through hole via 14 which includes Cu etc. is formed at the side wall of through hole 13 by plating etc. Wiring layer 15 which includes Cu etc. is formed on the upper surface of core substrate 11 by an electroplating method, photo lithography, etc. And wiring layer 16 which includes Cu etc. is similarly formed on the under surface of core substrate 11. This wiring layer 15 and wiring layer 16 are connected via through hole via 14. Through hole 17 is formed also in build-up substrates 12a-12 On build-up substrate 12 The front surface of wiring substrate 10 is covered by solder resist 20. Opening is formed in this solder resist 20, and a part of top and lowest wiring layer 18 is exposed. As solder resist 20, a resin which is electrically and thermally excellent, such as an epoxy system, a polyimide system, an acrylic system, and BT system, can be used. And bump 21 Next, the step which performs flip chip bond of the semiconductor chip 22 on the above-mentioned wiring substrate 10 is explained. First, as shown in On this occasion, bonding stage 24 heats wiring substrate 10 to about 150° C. with the built-in heater (un-illustrating). Similarly, bonding head 25 heats semiconductor chip 22 to about 150° C. with the built-in heater (un-illustrating). Next, bonding head 25 is descended and bump 21 Then, bonding head 25 is cooled to temperature lower than a solder melting point, and bump 21 is solidified. And adsorption of semiconductor chip 22 by bonding head 25 is canceled, bonding head 25 is raised, and bonding is terminated. Since the flip chip bond can be performed for semiconductor chip 22 to wiring substrate 10 via bump 21 according to the above-mentioned step, without using flux, the washing process of the flux can be skipped. Since void is not formed in bump 21 by expansion of a flux residue, reliability can be improved. Next, the step which forms under-filling resin between semiconductor chip 22 and wiring substrate 10 in order to prevent that bump 21 is injured with thermal stress etc. is explained. First, as shown in The passivation films (for example, organic resin films, such as a polyimide film) of wiring substrate 10 and semiconductor chip 22 are cleaned and activated (roughened) by this plasma treatment. Hereby, adhesion with the under-filling resin formed later can be improved. The filling factor of under-filling resin in the gap of semiconductor chip 22 and wiring substrate 10 can be improved. Next, as shown in Here, the under-filling resin whose glass transition temperature (Tg) is 100-120° C., for example, 110° C., is used. However, although there are various measuring methods of Tg, the DMA method (pull method) is used here. Next, as shown in Thus, the modulus of elasticity of under-filling resin is securable by making Tg to more than or equal to 100° C. also at about 125° C.-150° C. which are generally asked for operational reliability. For this reason, a bump can fully be protected. Resin curing temperature (curing temperature) can be made low by making Tg less than or equal to 120° C. For this reason, after curing under-filling resin, the difference of temperature at the time of making it change from resin curing temperature to low temperature can be made small, and the internal stress applied to a chip can be made small. Next, the step which adheres a heat spreader on the back surface (the surface of the opposite side to the mounting surface) of semiconductor chip 22 is explained. First, as shown in Since the stiffener is omitted for cost reduction, and the shape is made to have a clearance more than or equivalent to the thickness of the chip between the portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface, when heat radiation resin 31 is thin, a crack and a damage will enter into semiconductor chip 22 easily. On the other hand, when heat radiation resin 31 is thick, the divergence characteristics of heat will worsen. Therefore, it is necessary to control the thickness (gap) of heat radiation resin 31 with high precision. Then, the size of the filler mixed in heat radiation resin 31 is optimized, and the thickness of heat radiation resin 31 is controlled. Here, the thing the average particle diameter of whose filler is 13 μm is used. However, since the size of a filler has a distribution, the thing whose particle diameter is more than or equal to 45 μm is cut using a mesh. Hereby, the thickness of heat radiation resin is controllable to 60±20 Namely, by setting the desired thickness of heat radiation resin to A, and the maximum grain size of a filler to BMAX, a filler is chosen so that it may have the relation: Hereby, the thickness of heat radiation resin is controllable within fixed limits centered on desired thickness. As heat radiation resin 31, it is preferred to use the heat-curing type heat radiation resin of a silicone system from the ease of workability and the height of the heat conductivity. Silicone system heat radiation resin is the resin which blended highly thermally conductive powders, such as alumina, with the base of silicone oil. Since it is a product of high viscosity grease state in the state before cure, the thickness of heat radiation resin 31 can be controlled comparatively easily and in quite high accuracy by using the position control of a jig. As viscosity of heat radiation resin 31, material higher than the viscosity at the time of injection of under-filling resin 28 is preferred at least. As maximum grain size BMAXof a filler, although not restricted to 4/5 or less of thickness A of heat radiation resin, it is preferred to have the relation that maximum grain size BMAXof a filler is smaller than the portion AMIN at which the thickness becomes the smallest of heat radiation resin. When BMAXbecomes the same as AMIN, or larger than that, possibility that a filler will be put between heat spreader 32 and semiconductor chip 22 back surface will become high. Especially when it does not have the structure which supports heat spreaders 32, such as a stiffener, firmly around semiconductor chip 22 like this embodiment, in the step which sticks a heat spreader, when it is going to control the thickness of heat radiation resin only by load control, by the filler inserted between heat spreader 32 and semiconductor chip 22, a crack may enter into semiconductor chip 22 back surface, and the reliability of the semiconductor device may be dropped. Shape of a filler is made into a globular form and the damage to semiconductor chip 22 or heat spreader 32 is made small. Here, when the shape of a filler is not a globular form strictly, let the particle diameter of a filler be a diameter of the longest place. Next, as shown in Next, the step which joins the solder ball used as an external connection terminal to the under surface of wiring substrate 10 is explained. First, as shown in And where wiring substrate 10 is held, flux 35 is applied to the under surface of wiring substrate 10 via mask 34. Hereby, flux 35 is applied to wiring layer 18 exposed on the under surface of wiring substrate 10. However, soldering paste may be applied instead of flux 35. Next, as shown in Next, as shown in Next, as shown in The electric test of wiring substrate 10 and semiconductor chip 22 is done by exchanging an electrical signal between test pin 41 and solder ball 37 in this state. According to the above steps, the semiconductor device concerning Embodiment 1 of the present invention as shown in This semiconductor device omits the stiffener conventionally formed in order to reinforce the wiring substrate and to maintain the surface smoothness of the heat spreader for cost reduction, and has the shape which has a clearance more than or equivalent to the thickness of the chip between most portions which project to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader, and the wiring substrate upper surface. When there is much amount of under-filling resin 28, it may become the shape which fills between the very portion which projects to the perimeter of the chip of the heat spreader and the wiring substrate upper surface, but as compared with the case where it has a stiffener, the effect of reinforcement of a wiring substrate is very restrictive. Thus, in the shape which the great portion of wiring substrate upper surface of the perimeter of the chip exposes, the rigidity improvement in the wiring substrate itself becomes important. And in wiring substrate 10, a glass cloth is contained not only core substrate 11 but build-up substrate 12 That is, wiring substrate 10 has a plurality of insulating substrates (core substrate 11 and build-up substrates 12 Hereby, rigidity can be made high as the wiring substrate 10 whole. Therefore, even when a stiffener is omitted for cost reduction, a warp and a distortion of wiring substrate 10 can be prevented. As compared with core substrate 11, formation of a finer through hole is required to the insulating layer which forms build-up substrates 12 Hereby, rigidity can be made high as the wiring substrate 10 whole. Therefore, even when the stiffener is omitted for cost reduction, a warp and a distortion of wiring substrate 10 can be prevented. In Embodiment 3, heat radiation property is improved using the thing smaller than Embodiment 1 as a filler mixed in heat radiation resin 31. Concretely, the filler whose average particle diameter is 5.8 μm and whose maximum grain size is 24 μm is used. And in order to control the thickness of heat radiation resin 31, a spacer which includes globular form zirconia is mixed in heat radiation resin 31. Concretely, the spacer whose average particle diameter is 25 μm and whose maximum grain size is 33 μm is used. The thickness of heat radiation resin 31 is controllable by this spacer to 60±20 μm. That is, the desired thickness of heat radiation resin is set to A, average particle diameter of a spacer is set to C, and a spacer is chosen so that it may have the relation: Hereby, the thickness of heat radiation resin is controllable within fixed limits centered on desired thickness. And by setting the maximum grain size of a filler to BMAX, and the maximum grain size of a spacer to CMAX, a spacer is chosen so that it may have the relation: Hereby, the thickness of heat radiation resin is controllable by not a filler but a spacer. Average particle diameter of a filler is set to B, the minimum particle size of a spacer is set to CMIN, the particle diameter which occupies 90% of the occupying rate of a filler is made into B90%, and a spacer is chosen so that it may have any of relations: Hereby, the utilization efficiency of a spacer can be improved. In order to improve heat radiation property, the content in heat radiation resin of a spacer is made to less than or equal to 10 volume %, and preferably to less than or equal to 5 volume %. In Embodiment 4, the flow property of heat radiation resin 31 which adheres semiconductor chip 22 and heat spreader 32 is set as the following values. Here, the flow property of heat radiation resin 31 shall be decided by making 1 g heat radiation resin dropped on a plane from the 10 mm upper part at room-temperature 25° C., and measuring the breadth of the heat radiation resin. Conventionally, in this measuring method, the heat radiation resin of the flow property whose breadth is 19 mm was used. However, since resin is still a liquid state which has not solidified in the transportation after mounting heat spreader 32 on semiconductor chip 22 after mounting until curing when a stiffener is omitted, there was a problem that a drift of heat spreader 32 occurred by an oscillation and an inclination. On the other hand, in Embodiment 4, the heat radiation resin of the flow property whose breadth is 4 mm or more, and 12 mm or less, for example, 8 mm, is used in the above-mentioned measuring method. Thus, a drift of heat spreader 32 can be prevented by using the heat radiation resin of flow property whose breadth is 12 mm or less. Since it fully gets wet and spreads when heat radiation resin 31 is applied on semiconductor chip 22 by using the heat radiation resin of flow property whose breadth is 4 mm or more, the generation of void can be prevented. Even when a stiffener is omitted, the semiconductor device which can prevent the generation of twist and distortion of a wiring substrate is obtained. As for a semiconductor device which has a wiring substrate, a semiconductor chip by which the flip chip bond was made to the wiring substrate, and a heat spreader adhered to the back surface of the semiconductor chip, and which omitted the stiffener for reinforcing a wiring substrate and maintaining the surface smoothness of a heat spreader, a wiring substrate has a plurality of insulating substrates in which a through hole whose diameter differs, respectively was formed, and each insulating substrate contains a glass cloth. 1.
