Carrier sheet with adhesive film and method for producing semiconductor devices using the carrier sheet with adhesive film

1. A method for producing semiconductor devices with a carrier sheet with adhesive film, wherein each of the semiconductor devices includes a plastic package with a semiconductor chip, the method comprising:

producing a semiconductor wafer including a plurality of semiconductor chips that are arranged in rows and columns and include active upper sides and back sides, wherein the active upper sides are provided with contact areas;

separating the semiconductor wafer into individual semiconductor chips;

producing a carrier sheet including a double-sided adhesive film applied to an upper side of the carrier sheet, wherein the adhesive film includes a thermoactive film underside and a film upper side, the film underside is adhesively fixed on the upper side of the carrier sheet, and the film upper side remains freely accessible and includes semiconductor device positions arranged in rows and columns;

loading the freely accessible film upper side with the individual semiconductor chips, wherein the individual semiconductor chips are arranged with the active upper sides of the semiconductor chips on the film upper side of the adhesive film in the semiconductor device positions;

forming deactivated portions of the film upper side that are not covered with semiconductor chips so as to reduce the adhesive effect of the deactivated portions;

applying a plastic package molding compound film upper side so as to embed the semiconductor chips in the plastic package molding compound and to form a panel with a coplanar surface that includes the plastic package molding compound and active upper sides of the semiconductor chips;

removing the carrier sheet from the thermoactive film underside of the double-sided adhesive film, and subsequently removing the double-sided adhesive film from the coplanar surface;

forming a panel by applying to the coplanar surface a wiring structure with external contact areas and with interconnects from contact areas of the semiconductor chips to the external contact areas; and

separating the panel into individual semiconductor devices.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the double-sided adhesive film comprises adhesive layers that are applied to a heat-resistant base film, and the base film comprises one of polyethylene terephthalate and an ethylene-modified polytetrafluoroethylene.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the double-sided adhesive film comprises a heat-resistant base film with acrylic-containing adhesive applied on each opposing side of the base film.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein wherein the double-sided adhesive film comprises a heat-resistant base film, and the base film includes a thermoactive adhesive film on the film underside oriented toward the carrier sheet and a pressure-sensitive film on the film upper side oriented toward the semiconductor chips.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the double-sided adhesive film comprising a heat-resistant base film including an adhesive photoresist applied as the adhesive layer to an upper side of the base film.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the deactivated portions are formed by irradiating with UV rays the portions of the film upper side that are not covered by semiconductor chips.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the deactivated portions are formed by treated the portions of the film upper side that are not covered by semiconductor chips with plasma, the plasma including at least one gas selected from the group consisting of argon, helium, hydrogen, oxygen, tetrafluoromethane and sulfur hexafluoride.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the external contact areas are loaded with external contacts before separation of the panel.
