The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor package and a manufacturing method thereof. The method includes stacking semiconductor chips using a thermo-compression bonding (TCB) method, where defects are minimized for increased reliability. The semiconductor package includes an interface chip including a first test pad, a bump pad provided inside the first test pad, and a first through silicon via (TSV) provided between the first test pad and the bump pad; at least one memory chip, which is stacked on the interface chip and includes a second test pad, a dummy pad provided inside the second test pad, and a second TSV provided between the second test pad and the dummy pad; and an adhesive layer provided between the interface chip and the at least one memory chip. wherein no bump is provided on the first test pad and the second test pad.

Semiconductor package and method of fabricating the same

A plasma etching apparatus includes an etching chamber and at least one processor. The etching chamber is configured to support a target therein. The at least one processor is configured to: determine a process condition for plasma etching the target before execution of a plasma etching process; and control an aspect of the chamber according to the process condition. The process condition includes a unit etching time over which the plasma etching process is to be continuously performed.
