In this paper, two case studies of (i) Au-pad of packaged die unit and (ii) floating Al-pads of patterned wafer were presented. Surface charging was noticed in both the samples and it was not possible to eliminate the effect with convention charge reduction methods. Two FIB-based methods of charge reduction with potential applications in a failure analysis lab were discussed. The essence of techniques is to provide conducting path to charge accumulated on the surface of specimen. This is achieved by drawing Pt wires using FIB technique. In one of the methods discussed, Pt wire is deposited and patterned in the vicinity of feature of interest while, in the second technique a hole is drilled to Si substrate using a laser source and followed by Pt deposition.

Application of EDS Technique for OSP Film Thickness Measurement EDS技术在OSP膜厚测量中的应用

{"title":"Application of EDS Technique for OSP Film Thickness Measurement","authors":"K. Prong, K. Sirarat","doi":"10.1109/IPFA.2006.251030","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IPFA.2006.251030","url":null,"abstract":"Nowadays, there are numbers of pad finishing types in market for ball grid array package (BGA). OSP (organic solderability preservatives) pad finishing technology is one of the most widely used for the purpose of increasing the joint strength and achieving more excellence in heat-resistance. Especially, to develop the ICs products to have compatibility with non-clean soldering fluxes and solder paste as well as lead-free solder, OSP becomes one most suggested. Spansion with the commitment to customer requirements, has to implement OSP pad in our products i.e. FBGA packages. OSP pad is one of pad finishing technologies that Cu pad is coated with the thin film of a kind of organic material to protect Cu from oxidation during storage and many processes in IC manufacturing. The thickness the OSP film coated over Cu layer is in order of micrometer. Normally, during solder ball attachment process OSP will be cleaned out by soldering flux and heat to allow Cu to expose and attach to solder ball. The point is that if the thickness of OSP is too thin (less than 0.12 micron), the film cannot prevent copper from oxidation during storage and heat cycles. On the other hand, if the OSP film is too thick (more than 0.4 micron), OSP will not be perfectly cleaned out by flux during soldering reflow process. Hence this will bring to the bad solder joint because the presence of some OSP residue can result in bad solder wetting. This can affect on the attachment of solder ball and finally lead to significantly weak solder joint. Therefore, thickness of OSP film is one of the most critical factors that we have to consider and control in order to achieve desirable joint strength. Without OSP thickness information we will be unable to be confident in the quality of our product and unable to control incoming quality of substrate from supplier site. So, it is highly necessary to measure the OSP thickness or at least for monitoring and analysis purposes","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121172234","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}

Diamond (1998) have shown a very impressive growth in the last decade due to their high selectivity to specific biomolecules. They can allow fast and early detection of various kinds of illnesses and infections. One of the main challenges in this field is to develop biosensors that can be easily inserted within the human body and act as \"illness or body malfunction detectors\" by reacting to changes in antibody concentration. An important issue facing researchers in this aspect is to build biosensors as stated in K. Gartsman et al. (1998) by using known and inexpensive technologies presented in D. G. Wu et al. (2000).

This method underestimates the lifetime of the memory cell since the bit change in the cell over time is neglected. In this work we have analyzed the impact of storing random bit values in a 6T-SRAM memory cell by using probabilities of storing a one bit between the boundaries of 100% (fully unsymmetric stress) and 50% (symmetric stress). It turned out that the SRAM lifetime for using an unsymmetry of 90% in the stress-split between T2 and T4 is 1.14 times longer than the DC lifetime. We have also demonstrated that the NBTI degradation of the cell converges to the DC degradation for highly unsymmetric stress levels with a probability of over 90% for a one bit. It turned out that the calibrated reaction-diffusion model is useful to study the NBTI response not only for driving the gate with periodic rectangular signals but also for storing random bit sequences in an SRAM cell","PeriodicalId":283576,"journal":{"name":"2006 13th International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123979516","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}
