A piece of thin liner will then attach underneath of the module to strengthen the structure and as heat transfer mechanism. In order to achieve product specification on module thickness and flatness, a mechanical top clamp fixture with plungers was designed to flatten the module during liner assembly prior to curing process. Regular calibration on mechanical top clamp plungers are required in order to maintain a consistency of each plunger force in flattening the module. However, conventional calibration with feeler gauge method is time consuming which required to measure and adjusting the plungers lever to it optimized level.

In this manuscript, the effect of change in ambient temperature and injection current on SMD LED intensity and wavelength shift is reported. Measurements were carried out using a spectrometer to record the LED optical parameters at various operating conditions. Detailed analyses show that the ambient temperature has a significant influence on optical characteristics of low-power SMD LED.

It was widely predicted in the industry that next generation wafers should come from Gallium Nitride (GaN) substrate. This new material is expected to be the dominant technology due to its competitive in almost all aspects. Many high power device providers are making deep dive efforts, hopefully to penetrate market earlier than all other competitors. The challenges in achieving that target include facing some of the strangest issues. One of the issues faced in GaN HEMT wafer is not able to perform proper testing as it is a normally-on device. A lot of efforts were invested into developing breakthrough probing process in order to determine quality of device before going into assembly packaging. In the process to develop robust probing methodology, there were many quality occurrences and concerns. Multiple rounds of evaluations were executed and finally obtained few robust options. Upon actual verifications, a new improved probing methodology was selected. It could provide reasonable and reliable measuring performance while concluding new circuits should be redesigned at wafer level. With this new probing method, time to market could reach extremely good performance, enabling competitive advantage in market penetration.","PeriodicalId":237235,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 37th International Electronics Manufacturing Technology (IEMT) & 18th Electronics Materials and Packaging (EMAP) Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129905176","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}

The paper seeks to tackle the issue of lengthy development (pre- & post-silicon design) cycle on determining correct and optimized Analogue Front-End (AFE) buffer register settings for the extensive variation of topologies and wide electrical loss profile channels of USB2.0. A current process flow typically goes through multiple simulation and measurement iterations on the best available settings to pass the eye diagram across the many silicon process, voltage, temperature and impedance corners. The proposed tuning flow can be implemented in an automated algorithm which focuses on examining additional points and electrical parameters in both the 1st & 2nd half of the eye in order to finalize the most optimized settings according to the margins with buffer strength. Of note, this flow maintains a robust accuracy and flexibility where buffer strength are correlated, and algorithms are tested in pre-silicon as well as post-silicon. Ultimately, this translates into an efficient high speed eye diagram tuning capability and enabling a significant saving in time and effort spent on pre-silicon analysis, post-silicon measurement and a shorter design cycle, while maintaining USB2.0 electrical specification compliance in increasingly complex and variant channel solutions.","PeriodicalId":237235,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 37th International Electronics Manufacturing Technology (IEMT) & 18th Electronics Materials and Packaging (EMAP) Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128751547","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}

Certain ceramic materials have high mechanical strength, low thermal expansion, high electric barrier and high thermal conductivity. These properties are idea for devices pf designated purpose such as high power IC, LED and fast communication IC. For these applications via holes for signal and power connection are necessary. As the devices are miniaturized the sizes of via holes are forced to be reduced even down to tens of micrometers, thus, the drilling task can only be performed by laser. However, the ceramics are brittle and during the laser machining process the thermal stress and shock may easily cause defect in the heat affected zone. Also the debris generated in the thermal fusion-solidation process deteriorate the integrity of the via hole such as the in-out diameter, taper angle and roughness around the via. There is a trade-off between machining efficiency and quality has to be tuned. In this paper we apply a 12 picosecond 1033 nm wavelength laser to study the photo material interaction for drilling micro via in three thin plates of AlN, Al2O3 and Fe2O3 ceramic. AlN and Al2O3 are good heat dissipation material and Fe2O3 is idea for electronic noise immunity.
