The film is typically composed of 3-10 $mu$m conductive particles incorporated into an epoxy based film matrix.Smaller particles (e.g., 3 $mu$ m) are used to obtain a finerpitch, driven by a demand for higher resolution. Using smaller particlesleads to a reduction in the effective contact area resulting in an increasein the resistivity. Smaller particles also exhibit a reduced tolerance forvariations in the bond line thickness which may affects the repeatability of interconnects and reliability. In this paper, we investigate the relation ofparticle deformation to the resistance of both free particles(electromechanical test) and particles embedded in an adhesive film (ACF bonding). The presence of adhesive film has resulted in a much higherparticle contact resistance and affected interconnect repeatability. Theeffect of the adhesive film is strongly dependent on the bump surface topography, and a smooth surface tends to increase the contact resistance.","PeriodicalId":198238,"journal":{"name":"2018 7th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125463787","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}

Processing consists of conductive tracks printing on PET substrate, verification of printed substrate quality by specific characterization equipment and assembly of individually addressable RGB LEDs on substrate using adhesive bonding process. High throughput in manufacturing of flexible displays is achieved utilizing roll-to-roll processes in all steps of the manufacturing process. Utilization of seamless printing tool doubled printing process throughput compared to traditional printing process requiring two printing tools and steps. Implemented roll-to-roll automated electrical test equipment enabled high throughput testing and verification of printed substrate web functionality. Testing was a very important step to verify that printed wiring on the web fulfilled quality requirements for the assembly process. Required SMD components electrically bonded on substrate with R2R assembly machine by utilizing Isotropic Conductive Adhesive (ICA). In addition, Non-Conductive Adhesive (NCA) utilized to provide mechanical support of component, when flexible system bended to smaller than 20 mm radius. Dispensing process noticed to be the most time consuming process in flexible LED display manufacturing, when numerous adhesive dots applied on the substrate. In order to increase throughput in manufacturing, decrease of time used in dispensing process needed. Throughput increase by a factor of ten was possible to achieve by utilizing high speed dispensing process. Increase of more dispenser units in the dispensing process furthermore increase achievable throughput in the manufacturing process. Two meter long flexible display system demonstrator was designed, manufactured and tested based on processed flexible display element.","PeriodicalId":198238,"journal":{"name":"2018 7th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133273679","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}

In the current work an ultrathin sensor for Active Magnetic Bearings (AMB) has to be realized. Previous studies show very good results by the use of thin silicon interposer with a thickness of $50 mu mathrm{m}[1][4]$. With this technology sensor packages thinner than $150 mu mathrm{m}$ have been already realized. First results with thin polyimide interposer are shown in [3]. With this approach the thickness can be reduced down to less than $100 mu mathrm{m}$ in total.With a focus on improving the long-term reliability the process was optimized within the present work. Therefore the metallization of the sensor and the substrate were investigated. On sensor side the chosen material for interconnecting is gold with different thicknesses of 100 nm and 200 nm. On substrate side bare copper is compared with deposited NiAu on that copper. To evaluate the reliability of the sensor packages several test specimen were manufactured. These test specimen were aged afterwards in a temperature shock test (-20 °C, +85 °C; 15 minutes dwell time). As expected, the test specimen with an additional NiAu layer show lower failure rate after aging until 3400 cycles compared to the bare copper. But, there are still early failures before 100 cycles for any substrate-sensor-combination of some 5 %.As an alternative interconnecting technology soldering with SnAgBi solder paste was investigated as well. Therefore sensor dies with a bismuth layer were prepared and soldered onto test specimen. First results promise that this technology is able to be a proper alternative to Flip Chip interconnecting.","PeriodicalId":198238,"journal":{"name":"2018 7th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC)","volume":"51 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132934143","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}

Secondly, using a high intensity Xenon lamp, passive components and packaged LEDs were bonded within 5 seconds on microbumps formed with conventional Sn–Ag–Cu (SAC) lead-free alloys.

The reviewed studies confirm that the AMB is a fast and accurate test method, which uses the least amount of samples and generates a wide bandwidth of mode-mix-dependent critical energy release rates. The maximum reported mode-mix bandwidth is 115° while testing only three samples. The so-far tested interfaces are built by materials commonly used in products of the microelectronic and automotive electronics industries. These material combinations are epoxy based molding compound on copper lead frame, molding compound on printed circuit boards and thermoset-based adhesive attached to a low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC). Further, the latest status of the current used crack length determination method is given. Combining two approaches into a new method enables the usage of images for the crack tip detection in the experimental post processing. This method is predestined for a future automatization, but is also restricted to a certain quality of the specimen surface, like the contrast and focus of the recorded parts. Nevertheless, an exemplification is given and the results are discussed.","PeriodicalId":198238,"journal":{"name":"2018 7th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129592371","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}

Under such circumstances, the quality of the cover tape will need to be re-evaluated and confirmed by failure analysis, in particularly, the thickness of the cover tape. For the characterisation of flexible type material like cover tape, caliper, physical cross-section and optical techniques are some of the commonly used conventional techniques. However, destructive sample preparations are usually needed for these techniques, and the characterisation of the sample is confined to a very small region per sample preparation, therefore make them non-ideal. Profilometer is a more advanced technique that has been used widely in various applications but it has found to be not compatible for studying cover tape. In this work, we study the feasibility of using an interferometer in characterising the flexible type material through the investigation of various types of cover tapes from semiconductor industry. Results have demonstrated and verified that interferometer is a very promising technique in characterising flexible type material. This technique has enabled the characterisation of the material in 3-dimensional to an accuracy of <0.5 um non-destructively in a short amount of time as compared to the conventional techniques.","PeriodicalId":198238,"journal":{"name":"2018 7th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128666405","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}
