Abstract :
A summary of chip-to-package interaction (CPI) evaluations for a 90 nm PECVD low k technology will be discussed. This review will cover a 90 nm technology that uses Cu dual damascene interconnections with a SiCOH (K ∼ 3.0) CVD BEOL insulator stack across multiple wirebond package types and flipchip C4 ceramic and organic packages. It will be shown that with the use of IBM´s internally engineered SiCOH BEOL insulator, CPI is not an issue with this technology node.
