Semiconductor device packages with angled pillars for decreasing stress

Abstract:

Semiconductor devices having mechanical pillar structures, such as angled pillars, that are rectangular and orientated with respect to a semiconductor die to reduce bending stress and in-plane shear stress at a semiconductor die to which the angled pillars are attached, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. The semiconductor device can include angled pillars connected to the semiconductor die and to a package substrate. The angled pillars can be configured such that they are orientated relative to a direction of local stress to increase section modulus.
