Abstract
Semiconductor devices are described that employ techniques configured to control adhesive application between a substrate and a die. In an implementation, a sacrificial layer is provided on a top surface of the die to protect the surface, and bonds pads thereon, from spill-over of the adhesive. The sacrificial layer and spill-over adhesive are subsequently removed from the die and/or chip carrier. In an implementation, the die includes a die attach film (DAF) on a bottom surface of the die for adhering the die to the cavity of the substrate. The die is applied to the cavity with heat and pressure to cause a portion of the die attach film (DAF) to flow from the bottom surface of the die to a sloped surface of the substrate cavity.
