The implementation of reduced switch 5-level inverter improves the pulsating torque and dynamic speed response under various operating conditions. The concept of vector control is applied to obtain good dynamic performance and the machine can also be control like separately excited DC motor. Three PI controllers is employed as speed, torque, and flux controller and PWM technique is used to trigger switches of six switch 5-level inverter. The circuit configuration and PMSM model are developed in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and the performance is investigated with change in speed and load torque. Based upon simulation result the performance of proposed technique is recommended for significant reduction in THD (total harmonics distortion) of stator current and ripple in electromagnetic torque without increased in additional cost of overall system.","PeriodicalId":244618,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 21st Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"343 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132893177","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}

That method has been perfected over the years and delivers the required patterns and yield on the production. It is considered as standard process by default for enabling the assembly of flip-chip packages. However, spin-coating followed by photolithography is known to be rather wasteful, with only 10-20% of material staying on the substrate after patterning - all because it is subtractive method.

Overall results showed that longer mold cure time results to an increase in curing density due to better crosslinking of the epoxy-resin network and corresponds to improved mechanical properties and adhesion. Package delamination response and bending strength also improved with longer cure time. Moisture absorption and reliability were not affected by the different mold cure time settings after PMC was applied during assembly process. Understanding the interaction of mold compound curing behavior and optimum molding cure time parameter on molded package performance results to significant manufacturing productivity and equipment capacity improvement without sacrificing desired material properties, package integrity and reliability.","PeriodicalId":244618,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 21st Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115746075","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 this paper, we reported the fabrication, the vacuum packaging and the characterization of MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) piezoelectric energy harvester (EH). AlN (Aluminium Nitride) thin-film was adopted as the piezoelectric functional material to harvest vibrational mechanical energy utilising its electro-mechanical coupling capability. The device comprises suspended Al/AlN/Mo/Si cantilever as the energy harvesting structure and the proof mass made of bulk silicon which is formed by deep reactive ion etching (DRIE). The piezoelectric energy harvester device was fabricated on 8″ SOI (silicon on insulator) wafer ($30mu mathrm{m}$ Si device layer / $1mu mathrm{m}$ buried SiO2 / $725 mu mathrm{m}$ Si handle layer) by using 5 masks processes including 4 mask lithography processes from front side (bottom Mo, Piezoelectric AlN, top Al, and top Al/Si patterning) and 1 mask layer from backside ($400 mu mathrm{m}$ Si structural release). Ceramic LCC (leadless chip carrier) packages were used for the chip-scale vacuum packaging of the piezoelectric energy harvesters to minimize the energy loss from the air damping. The energy harvester was wire-bonded to metal pad inside ceramic packages. The getter layer was deposited by SAES on the inside of the lid and the getter was activated during the sealing process to achieve the intended vacuum inside the packages. The functionality of the energy harvester was tested at the probe station with a vacuum chamber before packaging and retested after chip-scale vacuum packaging to confirm the vacuum performance. To characterize the device, the generated open-circuit voltage between vacuum and no vacuum were measured and compared at 2g alternating accelerations. The generated voltage under open-circuit condition can reach around twice as that from the vacuum condition as at the ambient pressure. The Q factor of the energy harvester was calculated using the measured value in frequency domain. The Q factor of is about 750 in ambient pressure and 936 at vacuum. Higher Q at vacuum indicates a lower energy loss by air damping so higher open-circuit voltage can be generated at vacuum. The test results prove the MEMS integration platform and the chip-scale vacuum packaging work together successfully and the proposed approach can be used in other vibrational MEMS devices based on similar structures using AlN stack.","PeriodicalId":244618,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 21st Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129748972","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}

It plays the role to connect die on the substrate or connect copper clip on the die. It is important to get a uniform solder distribution and low void to ensure good electrical conductivity, excellent thermal conductivity as well as mechanical support for the high-power electronic devices, especially for the package with high current density and high operating temperature. Due to the wetting effect of the molten solder during reflow, the die will move and may result into non-uniform solder distribution between die and substrate. In addition, molten solder is not strong enough against the weight of heavy copper clip applied on it to achieve a desired bond line thickness (BLT). To improve the solder distribution uniformity and get desired bond line thickness, a novel die attach material will be discussed in this paper. This novel die attach material is a solder paste with addition of Cu sphere. The existence of the Cu sphere in solder paste will ease the unbalanced wetting force of liquidus solder during reflow process, the die tilt was reduced significantly compared to the solder paste without Cu sphere. At the same time, the addition of Cu sphere will increase the strength of the molten solder and reduce the spreading caused by the heavy copper clip, it is helpful to obtain a higher bond line thickness for copper clip application.","PeriodicalId":244618,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 21st Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130166089","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}

However, in existence of such an unpredictable issue, silicon production cannot happen; though during the design verification and functional validation, the USB PLL clock valid was working as per design. To avoid production discontinuation, a permanent solution is need of the hour. So, this issue has been replicated on analog bench validation for further debugging and root-causing. During the debugging, PHY's clock validity issue was isolated and PLL clock was not obtained at digital logic of the USB. Thus, we propose the immediate solution for this product-level reliability problem by adding a reset sequence through a software setting.
