In this paper, twisted differential line (TDL) is implemented on PCB and fully characterized. First, the transmission characteristics of TDL including propagation constant and differential impedance are extracted by using 3D full-wave analysis. The potential of TDL for the transmission of over GHz signal and enhanced immunity against crosstalk and radiated emission is clearly shown. Second, the measurement results reconfirm TDL's capability as a good transmission line structure over several GHz. Also, it is modeled by a simple equivalent circuit, based on measurement results. Third, the enhanced immunity of TDL against crosstalk and radiated emission is clearly demonstrated by measurement results. TDL is compared with other transmission line structures showing its superiority. Finally, several ideas to improve TDL's performance are suggested and verified to be useful.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002. (Cat.

For the determination of the maximum allowable current, bias stressing was applied to ACAs flip chip joint. The current level at which current carrying capability is saturated is defined as the maximum allowable current. The degradation mechanism under high current stress was studied by in-situ monitoring of gold stud bump-aluminum pad ACA contact resistance and also ACA junction temperature at various current level. The cumulative failure distributions were used to predict the lifetime of ACAs flip chip joint under high current stressing. These experimental results can be used to better understand and to improve the current carrying capability of ACA flip chip joint.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

Although the National Science Foundation Microsystems Packaging Research Center has done excellent work in revolutionizing its education program with an outreach component, nation-wide students still have limited exposure to the field. For example, students at a nearby engineering institution, Clemson University (1.5-hour drive to Georgia Tech) do not have any courses in electronics packaging. This has been due to the lack of experts in the rapid growth of electronic technology. This is true in the RF electronics and MEMS that represent emerging technologies for developing the next-generation microsystems.

It was found that Sn-Ag solder reacts at a faster rate with the electroless Ni-P layer to form a Ni-Sn intermetallic compound (IMC) and hence a P-rich layer is formed quickly by expellation of the P from the reacting Ni-P layer. The Ni-Sn reaction at the interface of molten Sn-Ag solder with electroless Ni-P is so much quicker, resulting in the entrapment of some P in the Ni-Sn IMC. The initial P content in the electroless Ni-P layer is around 20 at%. However, as high as 38 at% P is detected in the dark Ni-P layer at the Sn-Ag solder interface. After 180 minutes reflow of the Sn-Ag solder joint, the Ni-P layer is found to disappear, leading to the full conversion of the 15 /spl mu/m Cu pad to Cu-Sn IMC. On the contrary, Ni-Sn IMC growth rate in the Pb-Sn solder interface is slower as well as more adherent. For 180 minutes reflow of the Pb-Sn solder interface, the electroless Ni-P layer is found to act as a diffusion barrier for Sri towards the Cu pad. Its implications for lead-free soldering are highlighted.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002. (Cat.

We present the first detailed report on the dependence of the RIN of a fiber pigtailed laser diode on the process of pigtailing to a cleaved single mode fiber. The packaged device might have different RIN value due to the different alignment position where the reflection from the package is different. It is demonstrated that there is an optimal fiber-laser alignment position at which the value of RIN is at a minimum. It is thus important to consider the RIN optimization during fiber-laser alignment, in addition to seeking the maximum optical power coupled into the fiber. This work demonstrates that the RIN measurement is imperative when we prototype any non-isolator laser diode packaging.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

Components were then assembled with the Pb-free solder. Cross-sectioning and fine polishing were performed on the solder joints at the as-soldered stage and after temperature cycle readouts at 250, 500, 750, and 1000 cycles. The microstructure of the solder joints was examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and solder elements were mapped and identified by Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. DSC detected Pb reaction with Sn/Ag at 179/spl deg/C and ternary compound formation. SEM/EDX found that Pb diffused into the Sn/Ag/Cu matrix during reflow soldering to form different microstructures, namely CuSn, SnAg, SnPbAg, and Pb-rich phases. The SnAg structure was found as a rod/needle morphology that was detrimental to solder joint reliability. During temperature cycling, this structure loosened its embedding effects due to grain-boundary sliding in the solder matrix, which accelerated solder fatigue crack propagation. Solutions to this problem are discussed.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002. (Cat.

The ABMSL has the advantages of low insertion loss and high isolation between transmission lines compared to conventional planar transmission lines such as microstrip lines and coplanar waveguides (CPWs), because of its geometric structure that has air as a dielectric medium and ground conductor walls formed to surround the strip conductor. Over a high frequency range (from 5 GHz to 40 GHz), the ABMSL has very low insertion loss below 0.08 dB/mm. The isolation between two ABMSLs that have 2 mm coupling length and are separated by a 60 /spl mu/m distance is less than -43 dB.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

This results in an increase in coupling loss and a greater sensitivity to misalignment even when the fibre parameters are modified to match the device. In this paper we look at the effect of the optical parameters of a rectangular planar waveguide (height, width and refractive index difference) on the coupling loss and alignment tolerance for fibre attachment. It is shown that in the case of V-groove alignment of ribbon fibre (for example), where the height deviation of fibre cores can be significantly greater than the pitch deviation and there is a channel to channel variation in bond line thickness, this can lead to significant channel to channel variation in coupling loss.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

These passive devices are used as stand-alone components or form an integral part of filters, oscillators, amplifiers, mixers and other RF circuits. This paper discusses the design of high Q inductors and high Q capacitors in organic substrates. Inductors with maximum quality factors in the range of 60-180 were obtained at frequencies in the 1-3 GHz band for inductances in the range of 1 nH-20 nH. This is the first demonstration of such high Q inductors in organic substrates processed using low-temperature (<200/spl deg/C) processes. The dimensions of all inductors are comparable to a low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC, <900/spl deg/C) and multichip module deposition (400/spl deg/C<MCM-D<500/spl deg/C) technology process and well suited for integration in a variety of applications. The paper also discusses the performance of embedded capacitors in organic substrates. Although the Q factors for the capacitors in organic technologies are comparable to ceramic technologies, they do not compare well with the performance of inductors. The results for embedded capacitors show the need for lower loss materials compared to those currently used in low-temperature organic passive technology.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.

Goetz","doi":"10.1109/ECTC.2002.1008103","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ECTC.2002.1008103","url":null,"abstract":"There are two competing technologies pursuing the 'holy grail' of complete system integration. Today, the most common method used to create the 'system' is to mount separately packaged ICs on a next-level substrate. Even with a low pin count, a package is typically several times larger than the IC, to accommodate the low wiring density on the PCB. High-performance systems, such as network processor systems, require high data bandwidth between key components and thus need an increased number of signal I/Os. Wide I/O busses switching at high speeds consequently require a larger number of power and ground pins to reduce switching noise. As a result, system performance is limited by increasing package size and the associated parasitic inductance and capacitance of the package and its connection on the PCB. System on chip (SoC) architecture attempts to integrate many functions, both analog and digital into a monolithic device. The successes are many, but so are the challenges. Many functions cannot be optimized due to the limitation of the semiconductor substrate used. Also, as defect density scales with area, the notion of integrating large scale functions (memory, switch fabrics) with small scale functions (rf devices) results in compounded yield impacts. System in Package (SiP) technology allows heterogeneous devices to be integrated into a small form factor. The integration technology includes embedded devices in the substrate and 3 dimensional chip-stacking approaches. By using a silicon based SiP, a copper/low K interconnect defined by lithographic processes on silicon offers very dense routing with high speed, low noise signal paths. The ICs used in the SiP can be designed to leverage the high density interconnect by optimizing both the core and the I/O of each device. Additionally, specialized devices can be designed specifically for the SiP architecture to take advantage of the high bandwidth and low latency features. Reducing chip-to-chip bus capacitance can dramatically decrease system power requirements and thermal dissipation. The lower bus power can be traded against higher bus frequency to improve performance at a fixed power level.","PeriodicalId":285713,"journal":{"name":"52nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference 2002.
