Growth of tin whiskers for lead-free plated leadframe packages in high humid environments and during thermal cycling

Growth behavior of tin whiskers from pure tin and tin–bismuth plated leadframe (LF) packages for elevated temperature and high humidity storages and during thermal cycling was observed. In the storage at 60 °C/93% relative humidity (RH) and 85 °C/85%RH the galvanic corrosion occurred at the outer lead toes and shoulders where the base LF material is exposed, forming tin oxide layers of SnO₂. The corroded layers spread inside the film and formed whiskers around the corroded islands. Many whiskers were observed to grow from grain boundaries for the Fe–42Ni alloy (alloy42) LF packages. It was confirmed that the corrosion tends to occur on the side surfaces of outer leads adjacent to the mold flash. The contribution of ionic contaminants in epoxy mold compound (EMC) to the corrosion was not identified. During thermal cycling between −65 °C and +150 °C whiskers grew out of as-deposited grains for pure tin-plated alloy42 LF packages and they grew linearly with an increase of number of cycle. Growth mechanisms of the whiskers from grain boundaries and as-deposited grains were discussed from the deformation mechanism map for tin and mathematical calculation with a steady-state diffusion model.     

A Novel Single-Feed Circular Microstrip Antenna With Reconfigurable Polarization Capability

A single-feed circular microstrip antenna with reconfigurable polarization capability is proposed. This antenna has a simple structure, which consists of a radiating circular patch, five switches (PIN diode), three matching stubs, and a 50 microstrip feed line. It can be switched between 4 different states: two states (low-frequency and high-frequency) for linear polarization (LP), one state for left hand circular polarization (LHCP) and one for right hand circular polarization (RHCP) by controlling the bias voltage of two PIN diodes. At the same time, three switchable matching stubs are used for matching every polarization state. Simulation results and experimental results show that the proposed antenna demonstrates a low cross polarization level, good impedance bandwidth, and a very good axial ratio in the circularly polarized states.     

Fabrication and characterisation of CMOS compatible silicon nanowire biosensor

A silicon nanowire (SiNW) biosensor for label-free and real-time detection has been fabricated by complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. For the detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) used as a biomarker of prostate cancer the SiNW surface was modified to immobilise the antibody of PSA (anti-PSA). Real-time monitoring reveals the change in conductivity of the SiNW on specific binding of PSA to anti-PSA. For 355 nm SiNW, the response to 10 ng/ml of PSA was 7.3 .     

Significantly Enhanced Photoluminescence of Doped Polymer‐Metal Hybrid Nanotubes

We report on the significantly enhanced photoluminescence (PL) of hybrid double‐layered nanotubes (HDLNTs) consisting of poly(3‐methylthiophene) (P3MT) nanotubes with various doping levels enveloped by an inorganic, nickel (Ni) metal nanotube. From laser confocal microscopy PL experiments on a single strand of the doped‐P3MT nanotubes and of their HDLNTs, the PL peak intensity of the HDLNT systems increased remarkably up to ～350 times as the doping level of the P3MT nanotubes of the HDLNTs increased, which was confirmed by measurements of the quantum yield. In a comparison of the normalized ultraviolet and visible absorption spectra of the doped‐P3MT nanotubes and their HDLNTs, new absorption peaks corresponding to surface‐plasmon (SP) energy were created at 563 and 615 nm after the nanoscale Ni metal coating onto the P3MT nanotubes, and their intensity increased on increasing the doping level of the P3MT nanotube. The doping‐induced bipolaron peaks of the HDLNTs of doped‐P3MT/Ni were relatively reduced, compared with those of the doped‐P3MT nanotubes before the Ni coating, due to the charge‐transfer effect in the SP‐resonance (SPR) coupling. Both energy‐transfer and charge‐transfer effects due to SP resonance contributed to the very‐large enhancement of the PL efficiency of the doped‐P3MT‐based HDLNTs.     

An Effective Test and Diagnosis Algorithm for Dual‐Port Memories

This paper proposes a test algorithm that can detect and diagnose all the faults occurring in dual‐port memories that can be accessed simultaneously through two ports. In this paper, we develop a new diagnosis algorithm that classifies faults in detail when they are detected while the test process is being developed. The algorithm is particularly efficient because it uses information that can be obtained by test results as well as results using an additional diagnosis pattern. The algorithm can also diagnose various fault models for dual‐port memories.     

Anticipatory I/O Management for Clustered Flash Translation Layer in NAND Flash Memory

Recently, NAND flash memory has emerged as a next generation storage device because it has several advantages, such as low power consumption, shock resistance, and so on. However, it is necessary to use a flash translation layer (FTL) to intermediate between NAND flash memory and conventional file systems because of the unique hardware characteristics of flash memory. This paper proposes a new clustered FTL (CFTL) that uses clustered hash tables and a two‐level software cache technique. The CFTL can anticipate consecutive addresses from the host because the clustered hash table uses the locality of reference in a large address space. It also adaptively switches logical addresses to physical addresses in the flash memory by using block mapping, page mapping, and a two‐level software cache technique. Furthermore, anticipatory I/O management using continuity counters and a prefetch scheme enables fast address translation. Experimental results show that the proposed address translation mechanism for CFTL provides better performance in address translation and memory space usage than the well‐known NAND FTL (NFTL) and adaptive FTL (AFTL).     

A 6 Gbps/pin Low‐Power Half‐Duplex Active Cross‐Coupled LVDS Transceiver with Switched Termination

A novel linear switched termination active cross‐coupled low‐voltage differential signaling (LVDS) transceiver operating at 1.5 GHz clock frequency is presented. On the transmitter side, an active cross‐coupled linear output driver and a switched termination scheme are applied to achieve high speed with low current. On the receiver side, a shared preamplifier scheme is employed to reduce power consumption. The proposed LVDS transceiver implemented in an 80 nm CMOS process is successfully demonstrated to provide a data rate of 6 Gbps/pin, an output data window of 147 ps peak‐to‐peak, and a data swing of 196 mV. The power consumption is measured to be 4.2 mW/pin at 1.2 V.     

EVALUATION OF MALTING QUALITY IN A BARLEY BREEDING PROGRAMME USE OF α-AMYLASE AND β-GLUCAN LEVLES IN MALT AS PRESELECTION TOOLS

Analysis according to the EBC protocol, immunological determination of a α-amylase and estimation of malt β-glucan using the Calcofluor-FIA method, were used to screen 327 barley breeding lines for malting quality. The results obtained with the α-amylase and β-glucan methods are highly correlated to the important malt quality paramters: extract yield and β-glucan content in the wort. It is recommended that either of the two methods, which are simple to perform are used as prescreening tools in breeding programmes for malting barley.
