Three different metal structures and three commercially available spin-on polyimide materials which possess different molecular structures were examined. Transmission electron microscopy was used to study the polyimide/metal interfaces. Measurements of the transmission characteristics of line structures fabricated using the different metal/polyimide combinations were compared. It was found that the extent of interaction of polyimide with copper is dependent upon the type of polyimide used. Dupont 2611D polyimide showed the least amount of interaction with only a small band of precipitates present approximately 5 kAA from the copper/polyimide interface, which do not affect the electrical transmission characteristics of lines spaced 22 mu m a part. The use of an electrodes nickel layer on copper to retard copper/polyimide interaction from occurring during the curing cycle of the polyimide was found to be effective. However, increased loss of transmission at high frequencies and narrow spacing was seen for nickel-clad lines embedded in Dupont 2611D polyimide. Since nickel is a magnetic material, this increase in loss may be due to natural inductance from the nickel present in neighboring lines.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":102875,"journal":{"name":"40th Conference Proceedings on Electronic Components and Technology","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127868457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Terpene-based cleaners are safe for employees and the environment, they are effective for conventional and surface-mount technology, and they are cost competitive with CFCs. High-performance terpene cleaners have beep proven in commercial defluxing operations for more than three years, and they are available in adequate quantities to meet the requirements of the industry. Cleaning machines suitable for use with terpenes are available from most of the major equipment manufacturers, and a number of other equipment makers are expected to introduce terpene-compatible machines in the near future. On the basis of their performance, economics, and environmental attributes, it is reasonable to expect terpene-based products to capture a significant share of printed wiring assembly (PWA) (especially SMT, or surface-mount technology) cleaning capacity in the years to come.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":102875,"journal":{"name":"40th Conference Proceedings on Electronic Components and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128805160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ag/sub 2/O and PbO are added to increase the density of the fired film and to achieve the resistivity distribution for practical applications. Sheet resistivities ranging from a few ohms per square to several megaohms per square, are obtained by adjusting the contents of YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7-x/, Ag/sub 2/O, and PbO. Large negative temperature coefficients of resistivity are obtained for resistors with higher resistivity values. Since both YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7-x/ and silver exhibit a positive temperature coefficient of resistivity, the negative temperature coefficient of resistivity is thus attributed to the addition of PbO.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":102875,"journal":{"name":"40th Conference Proceedings on Electronic Components and Technology","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128811888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Customers will then be able to supplement these functions with applications common to their business areas. Customers will be able to add their own unique applications to address specific requirements. IBM is working closely with its customers and internal users to define the common requirements.

Strains were measured by this accurate and extremely sensitive technique at the locations of the gauges and related to corresponding gauge-resistance changes. The approach is immune from many of the drawbacks of earlier calibration procedures and has eliminated the need to know the piezoresistive properties of the strain-gauge material, which constituted a major difficulty in properly interpreting gauge-resistance changes in terms of strains at the gauge locations. A characteristic gauge factor, S, for each type of strain gauge has been introduced and shown to be the only gauge character to be determined. It reflects how different gauge types react to the same strain. It is suggested that the strain gauges be designed such that the gauge factor is as high as possible, thereby minimizing sensitivity to measurement errors. In addition to being flexible and applicable to new and existing stress chips, the procedure is expected to spread the use of diffused-resistor strain gauges as a realistic monitor of chip strains in addressing reliability concerns.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":102875,"journal":{"name":"40th Conference Proceedings on Electronic Components and Technology","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131744377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
