Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A semiconductor package includes a package substrate including a die attachment region, a semiconductor die attached to the die attachment region, and a die over-shift indicating pattern disposed on or in the package substrate and spaced apart from the die attachment region. The die over-shift indicating pattern is used as a reference pattern for obtaining a shifted distance of the semiconductor die.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A semiconductor package comprising: a package substrate including a die attachment region; a semiconductor die attached to the die attachment region; and a die over-shift indicating pattern disposed in the package substrate and spaced apart from the die attachment region on only one side of the semiconductor die, wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is used as a reference pattern for obtaining a shifted distance of the semiconductor die. 2. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern includes a line-shaped pattern which is parallel with a line at the side of the die attachment region. 3. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern includes two line-shaped patterns which are spaced apart from each other and are parallel with each other. 4. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is a groove-shaped pattern that is engraved at a surface of the package substrate. 5. The semiconductor package of claim 4 , wherein the groove-shaped pattern is formed in a solder resist layer included in the package substrate. 6. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern protrudes from a surface of the package substrate. 7. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is an ink printed pattern disposed on a surface of the package substrate. 8. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is located at substantially the same level as interconnection patterns formed in the package substrate. 9. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is disposed between a side surface of the package substrate and the die attachment region. 10. The semiconductor package of claim 9 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern is a line-shaped pattern which is parallel with the side surface of the package substrate. 11. The semiconductor package of claim 1 , wherein the die over-shift indicating pattern includes: a first die over-shift indicating pattern extending parallel with a side surface of the package substrate; and a second die over-shift indicating pattern disposed between the first die over-shift indicating pattern and the die attachment region parallel with the first die over-shift indicating pattern, wherein a distance between the second die over-shift indicating pattern and the die attachment region is substantially equal to a distance between the first die over-shift indicating pattern and the second die over-shift indicating pattern.
