Most build up interconnected substrates have been using a PWB with plated through holes (PTH) as the core substrate. Considering the form density of interconnects and transmission speed, this core with PTH has become a barrier by dividing the top and bottom surface of the substrate. Also, design interconnection lines are limited to the top side of the build up substrate which mounts the LSI devices. As for the solution to these issues, we have developed a new process of simultaneous curing with a copper foil transfer method onto an uncured prepreg. The simultaneous curing substrate method makes it possible to design signal interconnection lines on build up layers on both the top and bottom surfaces of the core substrate. In addition, it provides much finer via and narrower via pitch design on the core substrate which enables full grid area design instead of peripheral design.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

New electronic components, materials, fabrication processes, and configurations are emerging to achieve these goals. As expected, surface flatness is playing a more crucial role in integrated circuits and integrated optics manufacturing. Out-of-plane displacement (warpage) is a global effect of interfacial stress and displacement. It is also the cause of mis-registration and non-contact between components and their substrates. Moire methods offer noncontact, full-field, high-resolution approaches for measuring warpage. In this paper, two types of moire methods are introduced and analyzed. They carry distinct features and grant more options to measure warpage under various scenarios. It has been shown through system analysis and experimental results that these systems are powerful tools for studying warpage mechanisms. Specifically, they can help to investigate the effects of materials, manufacturing processes, and packaging configurations on warpage.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

However, due to the interfering of silica fillers with solder joint formation, most no-flow underfills are not filled with silica fillers and hence have a high coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), which is undesirable for high reliability. In a novel invention, a double-layer no-flow underfill is implemented to the flip-chip process and allows fillers to be incorporated into the no-flow underfill. The effects of bottom layer underfill thickness, bottom layer underfill viscosity, and reflow profile on the solder wetting properties are investigated in a design of experiment (DOE) using quartz chips. It is found that the thickness and viscosity of the bottom layer underfill are essential to the wetting of the solder bumps. CSP components are assembled using the double-layer no-flow underfill process. Silica fillers of different sizes and weight percentages are incorporated into the upper layer underfill. With high viscosity bottom layer underfill, up to 40 wt% fillers can be added into the upper layer underfill and do not interfere with solder joint formation.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

The solder bump was fabricated by subsequent processes as follows. After sputtering a Ti/Cu seed layer on a 5-inch Si-wafer, a thick photoresist for via formation was obtained by multi-coating, and vias with various diameters were defined by a conventional photolithography technique using a contact aligner with an I-line source. After via formation, eutectic solder bumps were electroplated. After reflow, the reflowed bump diameters at the bottom were unchanged compared with the electroplated diameters. The electroplated bump and reflowed bump shapes, however, depended significantly on the via size. The heights of the electroplated bumps and reflowed bumps increased with a larger via, while the aspect ratio of bumps decreased. To obtain high density bumps, the bump pitch was decreased so that the nearest bumps touched. The touching between the nearest bumps occurred during the over-plating procedure but not during the reflowing procedure because the mushroom diameter formed by over-plating was larger than the reflowed bump diameter. This study demonstrated that an arrangement in zig-zag rows is effective in realizing flip chip interconnect bumps with both a high density and high aspect ratio.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) have led to increasing interest for the packaging community due to their superior thermal and electrical properties. The targeted applications areas for LCPs are RF packaging, due to their low loss and low dielectric constant over a wide frequency range (Fukutake and Inoue, 2002; Fukutake, 1998; Jayaraj et al, 1995; Lawrence, 2000; Jayaraj et al, 1996; Yue et al, 1999,), near hermitic plastic sealing due to superior moisture barrier properties (Jayaraj et al, 1997), flex circuits and microvia laminates for high density interconnection (Corbett et al, 2000; Yue and Chan, 1998). This paper is focused toward possible application of LCP as a dielectric material for lamination on PWB and other engineered organic substrates. Commercially available LCP samples were analyzed using a variety of thermal analysis techniques. Based on thermal properties such as coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), thermal degradation temperature and modulus, samples were selected for applications as a dielectric material. It is expected that a low CTE dielectric such as LCP will further reduce the dielectric film stress even when the CTE of the chip is matched with that of the substrate.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

Key enabling technologies for 3D interconnect are high precision alignment and bonding systems and thick resist processing. A unique processing equipment has been developed to meet high volume production requirements. This paper reviews advances in equipment processing capabilities and provides a guideline for new processing techniques available. Wafer to wafer alignment can be carried out in various ways. Traditionally aligned wafer bonding is a well-established technology in the MEMS industry. Special requirements for 3D interconnects are high accuracy, the use of single side processed wafers and 8 inch capability. A comparison of wafer alignment technologies is presented. Also, a novel face-to-face alignment method is described and analyzed in terms of alignment accuracy before and after bonding. Wafer bonding is carried out subsequent to the alignment step in a separate process module. A summary of different bonding methods is given. Intermediate layers that act as bonding agent can be spun on to the wafer. Such coating processes for wafer level packaging applications vary greatly from the requirements for VLSI processing. VLSI photoresist processes use thin layers to transfer small features with sub-micron tolerances. Wafer level bumping typically is performed with 5-150 /spl mu/m films, to transfer large (20-250 /spl mu/m) features, with tolerances approaching micron scale. HDI applications require thicker adhesive layers. The paper concludes with application examples with different intermediate layers such as BCB.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.
