In this paper, thermomechanical and rheological properties of nonconductive pastes (NCPs) depending on silica filler contents and diluent contents were investigated. And then, thermal cycling (T/C) reliability of flip chip assembly using selected NCPs was verified. As the silica filler content increased, thermomechanical properties of NCPs were changed. The higher the silica filler content was added, glass transition temperature (T/sub g/) and storage modulus at room temperature became higher while coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) decreased. On the other hand, rheological properties of NCPs were significantly affected by diluent content. As the diluent content increased, viscosity of NCP decreased and thixotropic index increased. However, the addition of diluent deteriorated thermomechanical properties such as modulus, CTE, and T/sub g/. Based on these results, three candidates of NCPs with various silica filler and diluent contents were selected and used as adhesives for reliability test of flip chip assemblies. T/C reliability test was performed by measuring changes of NCP bump connection resistance. Results showed that flip chip assembly using NCP with lower CTE and higher modulus exhibited better T/C reliability behavior because of reduced shear strain in NCP adhesive layer.  相似文献

In this paper, the material properties of anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) and ACF flip chip assembly reliability for a NAND flash memory application were investigated. Measurements were taken on the curing behaviors, the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), the modulus, the glass transition temperature (Tg), and the die adhesion strength of six types of ACF. Furthermore, the bonding processes of the ACFs were optimized. After the ACF flip chip assemblies were fabricated with optimized bonding processes, reliability tests were then carried out. In the pressure cooker test, the ACF with the highest adhesion strength showed the best reliability and the ACF flip chip assembly revealed no delamination at the chip-ACF interface, even after 96 h. In the high temperature storage test and the thermal cycling test, the reliability of the ACF flip chip assembly strongly depends on the Tg value of the ACF. In the thermal cycling test, in particular, which gives ACF flip chip assemblies repetitive shear stress, high value of CTE above Tg accelerates the failure rate of the ACF flip chip assembly. From the reliability test results, ACFs with a high Tg and a low CTE are preferable for enhancing the thermal and thermo-mechanical reliability. In addition, a new double-sided chip package with a thickness of 570 μm was demonstrated for NAND flash memory application. In conclusion, this study verifies the ACF feasibility, and recommends the optimum ACF material properties, for NAND flash memory application.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of nonconducting fillers on the thermomechanical properties of modified anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACA) composite materials and the reliability of flip chip assembly on organic substrates using modified ACA composite materials. For the characterization of modified ACAs composites with different content of nonconducting fillers, dynamic scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) were utilized. As the nonconducting filler content increased, CTE values decreased and storage modulus at room temperature increased. In addition, the increase in the content of filler brought about the increase of Tg(DSC) and Tg(TMA). However, the TGA behaviors stayed almost the same. Contact resistance changes were measured during reliability tests such as thermal cycling, high humidity and temperature, and high temperature at dry condition. The reliability results were significantly influenced by CTEs of ACA materials, especially at the thermal cycling tests. Results showed that flip chip assembly using modified ACA composites with lower coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) and higher modulus by loading nonconducting fillers exhibited better contact resistance behavior than conventional ACAs without nonconducting fillers  相似文献

Non-conductive adhesives (NCA), widely used in display packaging and fine pitch flip chip packaging technology, have been recommended as one of the most suitable interconnection materials for flip-chip chip size packages (CSPs) due to the advantages such as easier processing, good electrical performance, lower cost, and low temperature processing. Flip chip assembly using modified NCA materials with material property optimization such as CTEs and modulus by loading optimized content of nonconductive fillers for the good electrical, mechanical and reliability characteristics, can enable wide application of NCA materials for fine pitch first level interconnection in the flip chip CSP applications. In this paper, we have developed film type NCA materials for flip chip assembly on organic substrates. NCAs are generally mixture of epoxy polymer resin without any fillers, and have high CTE values un-like conventional underfill materials used to enhance thermal cycling reliability of solder flip chip assembly on organic boards. In order to reduce thermal and mechanical stress and strain induced by CTE mismatch between a chip and organic substrate, the CTE of NCAs was optimized by filler content. The flip chip CSP assembly using modified NCA showed high reliability in various environmental tests, such as thermal cycling test (-55/spl deg/C/+160/spl deg/C, 1000 cycle), high temperature humidity test (85/spl deg/C/85%RH, 1000 h) and high temperature storage test (125/spl deg/C, dry condition). The material properties of NCA such as the curing profile, the thermal expansion, the storage modulus and adhesion were also investigated as a function of filler content.  相似文献

The effects of bonding temperatures on the composite properties and reliability performances of anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) for flip chip on organic substrates assemblies were studied. As the bonding temperature decreased, the composite properties of ACF, such as water absorption, glass transition temperature (Tg), elastic modulus (E′) and coefficient of thermal expansion (α), were improved. These results were due to the difference in network structures of cured ACFs which were fully cured at different temperatures. From small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) test result, ACFs cured at lower temperature, had denser network structures. The reliability performances of flip chip on organic substrate assemblies using ACFs were also investigated as a function of bonding temperatures. The results in thermal cycling test (−55 °C/+150 °C, 1000 cycles) and PCT (121 °C, 100% RH, 96 h) showed that the lower bonding temperature resulted in better reliability of the flip chip interconnects using ACFs. Therefore, the composite properties of cured ACF and reliability of flip chip on organic substrate assemblies using ACFs were strongly affected by the bonding temperature.  相似文献

Flip chip assembly directly on organic boards offers miniaturization of package size as well as reduction in interconnection distances, resulting in a high performance and cost-competitive packaging method. This paper describes the usefulness of low cost flip-chip assembly using electroless Ni/Au bump and anisotropic conductive films on organic boards such as FR-4. As bumps for flip chip, electroless Ni/Au plating was performed as a low cost bumping method. Effect of annealing on Ni bump characteristics informed that the formation of crystalline nickel with Ni3P precipitation above 300°C causes an increase of hardness and an increase of the intrinsic stress. As interconnection material, modified ACFs composed of nickel conductive fillers for conductive fillers, and nonconductive fillers for modification of film properties, such as coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), were formulated for improved electrical and mechanical properties of ACF interconnection. Three ACF materials with different CTE values were prepared and bonded between Si chips and FR-4 boards for the thermal strain measurement using moire interferometry. The thermal strain of the ACF interconnection layer, induced by temperature excursion of 80°C, was decreased according to the decreasing CTEs of ACF materials. This result indicates that the thermal fatigue life of ACF flip chip assembly on organic boards, limited by the thermal expansion mismatch between the chip and the board, could be increased by low CTE ACF  相似文献

The effects of the functionality of an epoxy monomer on the composite properties and reliability of anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) in a flip-chip package were investigated. Three epoxy monomers with different functionalities (f=2–4) were considered. The ACFs prepared using epoxy monomers with higher functionality resulted in lower molecular weight between crosslinks (Mc). As the Mc decreased, the elastic modulus (E′) and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) were improved. These results were highly consistent with the rubber elasticity theory. The reliability performance of the flip chip on organic substrate assemblies using ACFs were also investigated as a function of epoxy functionality. The ACFs prepared by using higher functional epoxy monomers showed improved reliability performance.  相似文献

In this paper, the effects of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) viscosity on ACF fillet formation and, ultimately, on the pressure cooker test (PCT) reliability of ACF flip chip assemblies were investigated. The ACF viscosity was controlled by varying the molecular weight of the epoxy materials. It was found that the ACF viscosity increased as the increase of molecular weight of the epoxy materials. However, there was little variation of the thermomechanical properties among the evaluated ACFs with different viscosites. Also, the results showed that the ACFs have no differences in moisture absorption rate, die adhesion strength, and degree-of-cure. In scanning electron microscopy images, the lower ACF viscosity resulted in the smoother ACF fillet shape and the higher fillet height. From the results of PCT, the ACF flip chip assembly with the smoother fillet shape showed better reliability in terms of contact resistance changes. After 130 h of PCT, the flip chip assembly with lower ACF viscosity also showed a lesser degree of delamination at the ACF/chip interface.  相似文献

Electronic packaging designs are moving toward fewer levels of packaging to enable miniaturization and to increase performance of electronic products. One such package design is flip chip on board (FCOB). In this method, the chip is attached face down directly to a printed wiring board (PWB). Since the package is comprised of dissimilar materials, the mechanical integrity of the flip chip during assembly and operation becomes an issue due to the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch between the chip, PWB, and interconnect materials. To overcome this problem, a rigid encapsulant (underfill) is introduced between the chip and the substrate. This reduces the effective CTE mismatch and reduces the effective stresses experienced by the solder interconnects. The presence of the underfill significantly improves long term reliability. The underfill material, however, does introduce a high level of mechanical stress in the silicon die. The stress in the assembly is a function of the assembly process, the underfill material, and the underfill cure process. Therefore, selection and processing of underfill material is critical to achieving the desired performance and reliability. The effect of underfill material on the mechanical stress induced in a flip chip assembly during cure was presented in previous publications. This paper studies the effect of the cure parameters on a selected commercial underfill and correlates these properties with the stress induced in flip chip assemblies during processing  相似文献

This paper presents a comprehensive methodology to model the assembly process of flip chip on flex interconnections with non-conductive adhesives (NCAs). The methodology combines experimental techniques for material characterization, finite element modeling, and model validation. A non-conductive adhesive has been characterized using several techniques. A unique experimental technique has been developed to measure the cure shrinkage. A 2D axisymmetric finite element model is used for analysis of flip chip on flex package with the non-conductive adhesive (NCA), which takes into account assembly force, cure shrinkage, adhesive modulus buildup, removal of assembly force, and cooling down to room temperature. The relationship between the bump contact resistance and the bump pressure has been established through the development of a dedicated experimental setup, which uses a micro-force tester combined with a digital multimeter and a nano-voltmeter. The process modeling has been validated by comparing the predicted bump contact resistance value and the measured bump contact resistance value after assembly process. The approach developed in this paper can be used to provide guidelines with respect to adhesive material properties, assembly process parameters, and good reliability performances.  相似文献

Interface reliability issue has become a major concern in developing flip chip assembly. The CTE mismatch between different material layers may induce severe interface delamination reliability problem. In this study, multifunctional micro-moiré interferometry (M3I) system was utilized to study the interfacial response of flip chip assembly under accelerated thermal cycling (ATC) in the temperature range of −40 °C to 125 °C. This in-situ measurement provided good interpretation of interfacial behavior of delaminated flip chip assembly. Finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out by introducing viscoelastic properties of underfill material. The simulation results were found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. Interfacial fracture mechanics was used to quantify interfacial fracture toughness and mode mixity of the underfill/chip interface under the ATC loading. It was found that the interfacial toughness is not only relative to CTE mismatch but also a function of stiffness mismatch between chip/underfill.  相似文献

In this paper, the effects of heating rate during anisotropic conductive film (ACF) curing processes on ACF material properties such as thermomechanical and rheological properties were investigated. It was found that as the heating rate increased, the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the ACF increased, and the storage modulus and glass transition temperature $(T _{g})$ of the ACF decreased. Variation of the ACF material properties are attributed to cross-linking density, which is thought to be related with the ACF density. In addition, as the heating rate increased, the minimum viscosity of the ACF decreased and the curing onset temperature increased during the curing process. The similar phenomenon was also found in in-situ contact resistance measurement. As the heating rate increased, contact resistance establishing temperature increased and the contact resistances of the ACF flip chip assemblies decreased. The decrease in contact resistance was due to larger conductive particle deformation which leads to larger electrical contact area. The effect of the heating rate of ACFs on thermal cycling (T/C) reliability of flip chip assemblies was also investigated. As the heating rate increased, the contact resistances of the ACF flip chip assembly rapidly increased during the T/C test. The T/C reliability test result was analyzed by two terms of shear strain and conductive particle deformation. Reduced gap of joints due to reduced ACF viscosity resulted in larger shear strain. Moreover, many cracks were observed at metal-coated layers of conductive particles due to larger deformation.   相似文献

The flip-chip technology using anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) is gaining growing interest due to its technical advantages such as environmentally friendly, simpler, and lower cost processes. Electrical performances and reliability of ACF flip-chip assembly depend on thermomechanical properties of ACF polymer resins. In this paper, the changes in ACF resin morphology due to the phase separation of thermoplastics, and subsequent changes of physical and mechanical properties were investigated as a function of thermoplastic contents of ACF formulation. Furthermore, the pressure cooker test (PCT) reliability of ACF flip-chip assemblies with various thermoplastic contents was also investigated. As thermoplastic contents increased, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of ACFs increased, and elastic modulus (E′) of ACFs decreased. In contrast, water absorption rate decreased as thermoplastic content increased. As a result, PCT reliability of ACF flip-chip assembly was improved adding up to 50 wt.% content of thermoplastic.

The flip chip-on-organic-substrate packaging technology utilizes a particulate reinforced epoxy as the underfill (UF) to adhere the chip to the package or board, Although the use of underfill encapsulation leads to improved reliability of flip-chip solder interconnections, delamination at various interfaces becomes a major concern for assembly yield loss and package reliability. In spite of their importance, the adhesion and fracture behaviors of the underfill interfaces have not been investigated until recently. Considerable controversy exists over the effects of underfill formulation and the adhesion and toughening mechanisms of the interfaces. The present work focuses on investigating the effects of several key variables on the interface adhesion strengths for UF/chip and UF/organic substrate systems. These variables are underfill organosilane content, filler particle content, rubber particle content, surface morphology and chemistry of the chip and organic substrates. The approach of this study is to measure the effect of these variables on the interfacial fracture energy using the double-cantilever-beam (DCB) techniques. The results demonstrate that the underfill interfacial adhesion and fracture characteristics are controlled by several distinct but competing mechanisms, such as formation of primary bonds, crack-pinning by glass fillers, debonding of glass filler from epoxy matrix (defect formation), and cavitation and shearing induced by rubber particles. Fundamental understanding of the interfacial adhesion and toughening mechanisms can provide guidance for developing new processes and materials to enhance interfacial adhesion and reliability  相似文献

This research proposes a parametric analysis for a flip chip package with a constraint-layer structure. Previous research has shown that flip-chip type packages with organic substrates require underfill for achieving adequate reliability life. Although underfill encapsulant is needed to improve the reliability of flip chip solder joint interconnects, it will also increase the difficulty of reworkability, increase the packaging cost and decrease the manufacturing throughput. This research is based on the fact that if the thermal mismatch between the silicon die and the organic substrate could be minimized, then the reliability of the solder joint could be accordingly enhanced. This research proposes a structure using a ceramic-like material with CTE close to silicon, mounted on the backside of the substrate to constrain the thermal expansion of the organic substrate. The ceramic-like material could reduce the thermal mismatch between silicon die and substrate, thereby enhancing the reliability life of the solder joint. Furthermore, in order to achieve better reliability design of this flip chip package, a parametric analysis using finite element analysis is performed for package design. The design parameters of the flip chip package include die size, substrate size/material, and constraint-layer size/material, etc. The results show that this constraint-layer structure could make the solder joints of the package achieve the same range of reliability as the conventional underfill material. More importantly, the flip chip package without underfill material could easily solve the reworkability problem, enhance the thermal dissipation capability and also improve the manufacturing throughput  相似文献

Underfills can dramatically improve flip chip reliability. However, the fillers used in some underfills can be dispersed unevenly, causing less than optimal reliability. In this study, underfill dispensing was conducted using various fill patterns. Experimental results show that particle settling occurs during the curing process, rather than during dispensing, and is affected by the difference between filler and matrix densities and underfill viscosity. Particle migration is a secondary mechanism, which causes uneven filler distribution. A vertically oriented transfer molding machine could help to mitigate settling.  相似文献

Solder joints, the most widely used flip chip on board (FCOB) interconnects, have a relatively low structural compliance due to the large thermal expansion mismatch between silicon die and the organic substrate. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the printed wiring board (PWB) is almost an order of magnitude greater than that of the integrated circuit (IC). Under operating and testing conditions, this mismatch subjects the solder joints to large creep strains and leads to early failure of the solder connections. The reliability of such flip chip structures can be enhanced by applying an epoxy-based underfill between the chip and the substrate, encapsulating the solder joints. This material, once cured, mechanically couples the IC and substrate together to locally constrain the CTE mismatch. However, the effects of CTE mismatch are assumed to become more severe with increasing chip size. Even with the addition of an underfill material, it has been supposed that there are limits on the chip size used in flip chip applications  相似文献

In this paper, a novel anisotropic conductive film (ACF) flip chip bonding method using ultrasonic vibration for flip chip interconnection is demonstrated. The curing and bonding behaviors of ACFs by ultrasonic vibration were investigated using a 40-kHz ultrasonic bonder with longitudinal vibration. In situ temperature of the ACF layer during ultrasonic (U/S) bonding was measured to investigate the effects of substrate materials and substrate temperature. Curing of the ACFs by ultrasonic vibration was investigated by dynamic scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis in comparison with isothermal curing. Die adhesion strength of U/S-bonded specimens was compared with that of thermo-compression (T/C) bonded specimens. The temperature of the ACF layer during U/S bonding was significantly affected by the type of substrate materials rather than by the substrate heating temperature. With room the temperature U/S bonding process, the temperature of the ACF layer increased up to 300degC within 2 s on FR-4 substrates and 250degC within 4 s on glass substrates. ACFs were fully cured within 3 s by ultrasonic vibration, because the ACF temperature exceeded 300degC within 3 s. Die adhesion strengths of U/S-bonded specimens were as high as those of T/C bonded specimens both on FR-4 and glass substrates. In summary, U/S bonding of ACF significantly reduces the ACF bonding times to several seconds, and also makes bonding possible at room temperature compared with T/C bonding which requires tens of seconds for bonding time and a bonding temperature of more than 180degC.  相似文献

Due to increasing demand for higher performance, greater flexibility, smaller size, and lighter weight in electronic devices, extensive studies on flexible electronic packages have been carried out. However, there has been little research on flexible packages by wafer level package (WLP) technology using anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) and flex substrates, an innovative packaging technology that requires fewer process steps and lower process temperature, and also provides flexible packages. This study demonstrated and evaluated the reliability of flexible packages that consisted of a flexible Chip-on-Flex (COF) assembly and embedded Chip-in-Flex (CIF) packages by applying a WLP process.The WLP process was successfully performed for the cases of void-free ACF lamination on a 50 μm thin wafer, wafer dicing without ACF delamination, and a flip-chip assembly which showed stable bump contact resistances. The fabricated COF assembly was more flexible than the conventional COF whose chip thickness is about 700 μm. To evaluate the flexibility of the COF assembly, a static bending test was performed under different bending radiuses: 35 mm, 30 mm, 25 mm, and 20 mm. Adopting optimized bonding processes of COF assembly and Flex-on-Flex (FOF) assembly, CIF packages were then successfully fabricated. The reliability of the CIF packages was evaluated via a high temperature/humidity test (85 °C/85% RH) and high temperature storage test (HTST). From the reliability test results, the CIF packages showed excellent 85 °C/85% RH reliability. Furthermore, guideline of ACF material property was suggested by Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for better HTST reliability.  相似文献

In this work, thermal cycling (T/C) reliability of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) flip chip assemblies having various chip and substrate thicknesses for thin chip-on-board (COB) packages were investigated. In order to analyze T/C reliability, shear strains of six flip chip assemblies were calculated using Suhir’s model. In addition, correlation of shear strain with die warpage was attempted.The thicknesses of the chips used were 180 μm and 480 μm. The thicknesses of the substrates were 120, 550, and 980 μm. Thus, six combinations of flip chip assemblies were prepared for the T/C reliability test. During the T/C reliability test, the 180 μm thick chip assemblies showed more stable contact resistance changes than the 480 μm thick chip assemblies did for all three substrates. The 550 μm thick substrate assemblies, which had the lowest CTE among three substrates, showed the best T/C reliability performance for a given chip thickness.In order to investigate what the T/C reliability performance results from, die warpages of six assemblies were measured using Twyman–Green interferometry. In addition, shear strains of the flip chip assemblies were calculated using measured material properties of ACF and substrates through Suhir’s 2-D model. T/C reliability of the flip chip assemblies was independent of die warpages; it was, however, in proportion to calculated shear strain. The result was closely related with material properties of the substrates. The T/C reliability of the ACF flip chip assemblies was concluded to be dominatingly dependent on the induced shear strains of ACF layers.  相似文献
