TSV-Free Interposer (TFI) technology eliminates TSV fabrication and reduces manufacturing and material cost. Co-design modelling methodology is established for TFI technology with considering wafer process, package assembly and package/board level reliability and thermal performance to optimize structure design, wafer process, assembly process and material selection. Experimental results are used for validating warpage modelling results. Through wafer level modelling, suitable carrier wafer and EMC materials are
recommended to control wafer warpage less than 2mm. Effects of package substrate coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and stiffener on assembly induced package warpage are simulated to reduce package warpage. The recommended materials and geometry design based on reliability are aligned with that from wafer and package warpage simulation results. The final test vehicle (TV) design and material selection are
determined based on co-design modelling results for achieving successful TFI wafer process and package assembly process and long term package/board level reliability.
