Abstract

Disclosed is a printed circuit board having a flow preventing dam and a manufacturing method thereof. The printed circuit board includes a base substrate having a solder pad, a solder bump formed on the solder pad of the base substrate, and a flow preventing dam formed on a peripheral area of the base substrate using a dry film resist. The flow preventing dam can prevent the outflow of an underfill solution and can be simply formed.

Claims (10)

1. A printed circuit board having a flow preventing dam, comprising:

a base substrate having a solder pad;

a solder bump formed on the solder pad of the base substrate; and

a flow preventing dam formed on a peripheral area of the base substrate using a dry film resist.

2. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 1 , wherein a solder resist layer having an opening for exposing the solder pad is formed on the base substrate.

3. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the flow preventing dam comprises the dry film resist which is attached in a state of being overcured through excessive exposure to the solder resist layer.

4. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising a semiconductor chip which is flip chip bonded to the base substrate by means of the solder bump formed on the solder pad of the base substrate.

5. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 4 , wherein the flow preventing dam is provided to protrude from the base substrate along an outer edge of the semiconductor chip, in order to prevent outflow of an underfill solution which is introduced into a gap between the semiconductor chip and the base substrate.

6. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 4 , wherein the flow preventing dam is formed to be lower than an upper surface of the semiconductor chip which is flip chip bonded to the base substrate and to be higher than the gap between the semiconductor chip and the base substrate.

7. The printed circuit board as set forth in claim 4 , wherein the flow preventing dam is provided between the outer edge of the base substrate and the outer edge of the semiconductor chip.
