Abstract: | Thermally stimulated discharge (TSD) is used to characterize fractional components of epoxy encapsulation systems used on
semiconductor devices. Previous work is reviewed. Present results based on individual components and component interactions
are detailed. Various resin/hardener systems are examined and are not found to be major contributors to TSD structure when
balanced by epoxy equivalent weight. Catalyst additions reveal increased TSD structure, especially for low levels. TSD is
suggested as a cure indicator for epoxy systems. Moisture is found to resolve thermogram structure, and TSD is found to be
a viable method of studying moisture effects. |
