The effect of underfill on various thermomechanical reliability issues in super ball grid array (SBGA) packages is studied in this paper. Nonlinear finite element models with underfill and no underfill are developed taking into consideration the process-induced residual stresses. In this study, the solder is modeled as time and temperature-dependent, while other materials are modeled temperature and direction-dependent, as appropriate. The stress/strain variations in the package due to thermal cycling are analyzed. The effect of underfill is studied with respect to magnitude and location of time-independent plastic strain, time-dependent creep strain and total inelastic strain in solder balls. The effect of copper core on the solder ball strains is presented. The possibility of delamination at the interposer-underfill interface as well as substrate-underfill interface is studied with the help of qualitative interfacial stress analysis. Results on SBGA packages indicate that the underfill does not always enhance BGA reliability, and that the properties of the underfill have a significant role in the overall reliability of the BGA packages. The predicted number of thermal cycles to solder joint fatigue are compared with the existing experimental data on similar nonunderfilled BGA packages. 相似文献

The impact of phase change (from solid to liquid) on the reliability of Pb-free flip-chip solders during board-level interconnect reflow is investigated. Most of the current candidates for Pb-free solder are tin-based with similar melting temperatures near 230 degC. Thus, Pb-free flip-chip solders melt again during the subsequent board-level interconnect reflow cycle. Solder volume expands more than 4% during the phase change from solid to liquid. The volumetric expansion of solder in a volume constrained by chip, substrate, and underfill creates serious reliability issues. The issues include underfill fracture and delamination from chip or substrate. Besides decreasing flip-chip interconnect reliability in fatigue, bridging through underfill cracks or delamination between neighboring flip-chip interconnects by the interjected solder leads to failures. In this paper, the volume expansion ratio of tin is experimentally measured, and a Pb-free flip-chip chip-scale package (FC-CSP) is used to observe delamination and solder bridging after solder reflow. It is demonstrated that the presence of molten solder and the interfacial failure of underfill can occur during solder reflow. Accordingly, Pb-free flip-chip packages have an additional reliability issue that has not been a concern for Pb solder packages. To quantify the effect of phase change, a flip-chip chip-scale plastic ball grid array package is modeled for nonlinear finite-element analysis. A unit-cell model is used to quantify the elongation strain of underfill and stresses at the interfaces between underfill and chip or underfill and substrate generated by volume expansion of solder. In addition, the strain energy release rate of interfacial crack between chip and underfill is also calculated 相似文献

Thermal fatigue damage of flip chip solder joints is a serious reliability concern, although it usually remains tolerable
with the flip chip connections (of smaller chips) to ceramic boards as practiced by IBM for over a quarter century. However,
the recent trend in microelectronics packaging towards bonding large chips or ceramic modules to organic boards means a larger
differential thermal expansion mismatch between the board and the chip or ceramic module. To reduce the thermal stresses and
strains at solder joints, a polymer underfill is customarily added to fill the cavity between the chip or module and the organic
board. This procedure has typically at least resulted in an increase of the thermal fatigue life by a factor of 10, as compared
to the non-underfilled case. In this contribution, we first discuss the effects of the underfill to reduce solder joint stresses
and strains, as well as underfill effects on fatigue crack propagation based on a finite element analysis. Secondly, we probe
the question of the importance of the effects of underfill defects, particularly that of its delamination from the chip side,
on the effectiveness of the underfill to increase thermal fatigue life. Finally, we review recent experimental evidence from
thermal cycling of actual flip chip modules which appears to support the predictions of our model. 相似文献

Solder joint fatigue failure is a serious reliability concern in area array technologies, such as flip chip and ball grid array packages of integrated-circuit chips. The selection of different substrate materials could affect solder joint thermal fatigue lifetime significantly. The reliability of solder joint in flip chip assembly for both rigid and compliant substrates was evaluated by accelerated temperature cycling test. Experimental results strongly showed that the thermal fatigue lifetime of solder joints in flip chip on flex assembly was much improved over that in flip chip on rigid substrate assembly. Debonding area of solder joints in flip chip on rigid board and flip chip on flex assemblies were investigated, and it was found that flex substrate could slow down solder joint crack propagation rate. The mechanism of substrate flexibility on improving solder joint thermal fatigue was investigated by thermal mechanical analysis (TMA) technique. TMA results showed that flex substrate buckles or bends during temperature cycling and this phenomenon was discussed from the point of view of mechanics of the flip chip assembly during temperature cycling process. It was indicated that the thermal strain and stress in solder joints could be reduced by flex buckling or bending and flex substrates could dissipate energy that otherwise would be absorbed by solder joints. It was concluded that substrate flexibility has a great effect on solder joint reliability and the reliability improvement was attributed to flex buckling or bending during temperature cycling. 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

A flip chip package was assembled by using 6-layer laminated polyimide coreless substrate, eutectic Sn37Pb solder bump, two kinds of underfill materials and Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu solder balls. Regarding to the yield, the peripheral solder joints were often found not to connect with the substrate due to the warpage at high temperature, modification of reflow profile was benefit to improve this issue. All the samples passed the moisture sensitive level test with a peak temperature of 260 °C and no delamination at the interface of underfill and substrate was found. In order to know the reliability of coreless flip chip package, five test items including temperature cycle test (TCT), thermal shock test (TST), highly accelerated stress test (HAST), high temperature storage test (HTST) and thermal humidity storage test (THST) were done. Both of the two underfill materials could make the samples pass the HTST and THST, however, in the case of TCT, TST and HAST, the reliability of coreless flip chip package was dominated by underfill material. A higher Young’s modules of underfill, the more die crack failures were found. Choosing a correct underfill material was the key factor for volume production of coreless flip chip package. 相似文献

Three different types of underfill imperfections were considered; i.e., (1) interfacial delamination between the underfill encapsulant and the solder mask on the PCB (crack initiated at the tip of underfill fillet), (2) interfacial delamination between the chip and the underfill encapsulant (crack initiated at the chip corner), and (3) the same as (2) but without the underfill fillet. Five different combinations of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and Young's modulus with the aforementioned delaminations were investigated. A fracture mechanics approach was employed for computational analysis. The strain energy release rate at the crack tip and the maximum accumulated equivalent plastic strain in the solder bumps of all cases were evaluated as indices of reliability. Besides, mechanical shear tests were performed to characterize the shear strength at the underfill-solder mask interface and the underfill-chip passivation interface. The main objective of the present study is to achieve a better understanding in the thermo-mechanical behavior of flip chip on board (FCOB) assemblies with imperfect underfill encapsulants 相似文献

Adhesion is one of the key properties of underfills used in flip chip assemblies. This paper characterizes the adhesion strengths of no-flow underfill materials to various die passivations using the shear test techniques. A novel shear test vehicle with planner underfill layers between the die and substrate is presented. The adhesion strengths and failure modes of the no-flow underfill materials during shear testing correlate well with their thermal shock reliability test results. Underfill adhesion related failures such as delamination and crack are investigated and correlated between flip chip assemblies and shear test vehicle assemblies without solder joint interconnects 相似文献

Effect of substrate flexibility on solder joint reliability. Part II: finite element modeling 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Solder joint fatigue failure is a serious reliability concern in area array technologies, such as flip chip and ball grid array packages of integrated-circuit chips. The selection of different substrate materials could affect solder joint thermal fatigue life significantly. The mechanism of substrate flexibility on improving solder joint thermal fatigue was investigated by thermal mechanical analysis (TMA) technique and finite element modeling. The reliability of solder joints in real flip chip assembly with both rigid and compliant substrates was evaluated by accelerated temperature cycling test. Finite element simulations were conducted to study the reliability of solder joints in flip chip on flex assembly (FCOF) and flip chip on rigid board assembly (FCOB) applying Anand model. Based on the finite element analysis results, the fatigue lives of solder joints were obtained by Darveaux’s crack initiation and growth model. The thermal strain/stress in solder joints of flip chip assemblies with different substrates were compared. The results of finite element analysis showed a good agreement with the experimental results. It was found that the thermal fatigue lifetime of FCOF solder joints was much longer than that of FCOB solder joints. The thermal strain/stress in solder joints could be reduced by flex buckling or bending and flex substrates could dissipate energy that otherwise would be absorbed by solder joints. It was concluded that substrate flexibility has a great effect on solder joint reliability and the reliability improvement was attributed to flex buckling or bending during temperature cycling. 相似文献

Flip chip on board (FCOB) is one of the most quickly growing segments in advanced electronic packaging. In many cases, assembly processes are not capable of providing the high throughputs needed for integrated surface mount technology (SMT) processing (Tummala et al, 1997). A new high throughput process using no-flow underfill materials has been developed that has the potential to significantly increase flip chip assembly throughput. Previous research has demonstrated the feasibility and reliability of the high throughput process required for FCOB assemblies. The goal of this research was to integrate the high throughput flip chip process on commercial flip chip packages that consisted of high lead solder balls on a polyimide passivated silicon die bonded with eutectic solder bumped pads on the laminate substrate interface (Qi, 1999). This involved extensive parametric experimentation that focused on the following elements: no-flow process evaluation and implementation on the commercial packages, reflow profile parameter effects on eutectic solder wetting of high lead solder bumps, interactions between the no-flow underfill materials and the package solder interconnect and tented via features, void capture and void formation during processing, and material set compatibility and the effects on long term reliability performance 相似文献

Solder joint thermal fatigue failure is a major concern for area array technologies such as flip chip and ball grid array technologies. Solder joint geometry is an important factor influencing thermal fatigue lifetime. In this paper, the effects of solder joint shape and height on thermal fatigue lifetime are studied. Solder joint fatigue lifetime was evaluated using accelerated temperate cycling and adhesion test. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDX), scanning acoustic microscopy (nondestructive evaluation) and optical microscopy were utilized to examine the integrity of the joint and to detect cracks and other defects before and during accelerated fatigue tests. Our accelerated temperature cycling test clearly shows that solder joint fatigue failure process consists of three phases: crack initiation, crack propagation and catastrophic failure. Experimental results indicated that both hourglass shape and great standoff height could improve solder joint fatigue lifetime, with standoff height being the more effective factor. Experimental data suggested that shape is the dominant factor affecting crack initiation time while standoff height is the major factor influencing crack propagation time. 相似文献

The geometry of solder joints in the flip chip technologies is primarily determined by the associated solder volume and die/substrate-side pad size. In this study, the effect of these parameters on the solder joint reliability of a fine-pitched flip chip ball grid array (FCBGA) package is extensively investigated through finite element (FE) modeling and experimental testing. To facilitate thermal cycling (TC) testing, a simplified FCBGA test vehicle with a very high pin counts (i.e., 2499 FC solder joints) is designed and fabricated. By the vehicle, three different structural designs of flip chip solder joints, each of which consists of a different combination of these design parameters, are involved in the investigation. Furthermore, the associated FE models are constructed based on the predicted geometry of solder joints using a force-balanced analytical approach. By way of the predicted solder joint geometry, a simple design rule is created for readily and qualitatively assessing the reliability performance of solder joints during the initial design stage. The validity of the FE modeling is extensively demonstrated through typical accelerated thermal cycling (ATC) testing. To facilitate the testing, a daisy chain circuit is designed, and fabricated in the package for electrical resistance measurement. Finally, based on the validated FE modeling, parametric design of solder joint reliability is performed associated with a variety of die-side pad sizes. The results show that both the die/substrate-side pad size and underfill do play a significant role in solder joint reliability. The derived results demonstrate the applicability and validity of the proposed simple design rule. It is more surprising to find that the effect of the contact angle in flip chip solder joint reliability is less significant as compared to that of the standoff height when the underfill is included in the package. 相似文献
