Abstract

Methods of magnetically shielding a perpendicular STT-MRAM structure on all six sides within a flip-chip package and the resulting devices are provided. Embodiments include forming a passivation stack over an upper surface of a wafer and outer portions of an Al pad; forming a polymer layer over the passivation stack; forming a UBM layer over the Al pad, portions of the polymer layer and along sidewalls of the polymer layer; forming a T-shaped Cu pillar over the UBM layer; forming a μ-bump over the T-shaped Cu pillar; dicing the wafer into a plurality of dies; forming an epoxy layer over a bottom surface of each die; forming a magnetic shielding layer over the epoxy layer and along sidewalls of each die, the epoxy layer, the passivation stack and the polymer layer; and connecting the μ-bump to a package substrate with a BGA balls.
