In this paper, according to the theory of the mix-color, the simulation model was built in MATLAB and the performance of the white LED was analysized based on the model. According to the theory of uncertainty, one uncertainty model of the two primary colors LED's color deviation, correlated color temperature and luminous flux was built which takes the uncertainty of the design parameters, such as the monochromatic spectral wave length, half wave width, into accounting in MATLAB. The probability distribution of the LED color deviation was obtained under the normal probability distribution of the design parameters. The impact of the uncertainty of the design parameters on white LED performance was firstly quantified. The new approach design with improved the LED color constancy was brought out.

Some of these technologies are very mature and compatible for any conventional processes of PCB/Substrate manufacturing which need to be supported by SMT processes. Nowadays, some of electronic products with ECiS technologies already got high volume production scale. As frontline, this paper will describe about the classification of these ECiS technologies. As the development of ECiS technologies into the 3D stacking generation, there are 3 major options had been researched and developed by the industry. One of the options uses a combined process of two different ECiS technologies (via technique and vialess technique) as a new solution which will provide more possibility to decrease the size of the Integrated Circuit Products with more complexly system integration, much higher reliability and more simply interconnection, all these will dramatically improve the electrical performance. By combining the advantages of via technique and via-less technique, an optimized technique has been developed for the ECiS technology. We designed test boards with daisy chain die and the manufacturing process is demonstrated as follow. A specific requirement for Pad metallization of dies was prepared with RDL technique firstly, after that one of the dies was embedded with blind via technique and then followed solder joint technique for the other die to accomplish the stacking process completely. This thin test board structure with embedded 2 stacking dies and very short path for interconnection between the stack dies would be discussed with more details in last section of this paper. At last, some key reliability test items (such as Moisture Sensitivity Test in Level 3 with 5 times Assembly Rework and Thermal Cycling Test) were applied to analyze the reliability of these test boards in details.

PCC wire is replacing bare copper wires to eliminate the copper oxidation problem. Whereas, roughen treated preplated leadframe is used to eliminate post-plating of leadframe as well as to enhance the adhesion of leadframe to the epoxy mold compounds. However, role of the plating thickness of roughen preplated leadframe on the PCC wire has not yet been fully understood. Thus, this paper investigates stitch bonding strength of PCC wire on the AuAg/Pd/Ni/Cu preplated leadframe with different AuAg plating thickness. Stitch pull test results on PCC wire bonding on different preplated leadframe showed higher stitch bonding strength for samples with higher AuAg plating thickness. Optical micrographs showed mechanical failure at bond heel of test sample, due to higher tensile stress during the pull test. Thicker AuAg layers may provide greater cushioning effect against wire deformation at bond heel during stitch bonding process. This in turns increased the stitch bonding strength of the PCC wire bond. STEM micrograph and EDX line-scan profile in all samples showed formation of interdiffusion zone at the PCC wire/ leadframe bonding interface. At the distinct bonding interface, interdiffusion zone extended from Pd layer of PCC wire to Pd layer of leadframe, where Pd species from both sides were intermixed. Whereas at blurred bonding interface, interdiffusion zone was extended further to Pd/Ni interface region. Formation of interdiffusion zone may strengthened wire bond between the PCC wire and the leadframe, thus prevented bond delamination during the stitch pull strength test.","PeriodicalId":415934,"journal":{"name":"2015 16th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology (ICEPT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121491962","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 purpose of this work was to realize the 3D die stacking by Au-Ag thermocompression bonding of two chips with the same electrode structure as SiC Schottky Diode. Gold stud bumps were made on the aluminum electrode by thermosonic bonding. Two chips were stacked together by Au-Ag thermocompression bonding. Different bonding parameters and annealing conditions were evaluated. Experiment results showed that increasing bonding temperature or annealing duration could improve the bonding quality. The Au-Ag bonding with 15N bond load at 250°C for 20 minutes followed by nitrogen annealing at 160°C for 30 minutes exhibited a successful bonding performance. The Au-Ag bonding interface was analyzed by SEM (scanning electron microscope) and EDX (energy dispersive x-ray spectroscope).

Both silicon carbide and gallium nitride power semiconductor devices offer a higher voltage handling capability over their silicon power semiconductor counterparts. In this paper, the design and packaging issues for SiC power electronic modules are discussed. Several SiC devices are usually connected in parallel to increase its current handling capability in power electronic module packaging. The paralleling of these SiC devices creates unbalanced parasitic inductances which affect the dynamic switching performance for these paralleled devices. Each of the paralleled SiC devices could have different initial peak currents due to their different parasitic inductances within the module. Moreover, their fast dv/dt of the drain voltages as well as the high di/dt of the drain currents can cause spurious switching behaviors in some of the paralleled SiC devices in the power module. Layout techniques can be used to mitigate these spurious switching behaviors. However, module construction architectures and as well as module package construction are required to further mitigate these parasitic inductances. One of the many advantages of the SiC power devices is high voltage handling capability. High voltage operation of the power electronic module requires careful reduction of electric field intensification within the device as well as the module. Encapsulations with the desired dielectric breakdown strength as well as temperature performance must be applied on top of these devices to prevent premature voltage breakdown. One of the salient features of the SiC power electronic modules is high temperature operation of greater than 175°C. For high temperature operations, proper die attach must be utilized. Nano silver sintering and transient liquid phase bonding are two high temperature die attachment techniques. For high temperature operation, reliability testing for these SiC power electronic modules must be carefully considered since there is no existing international standard for reliability testing for these high-temperature power electronic modules.","PeriodicalId":415934,"journal":{"name":"2015 16th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology (ICEPT)","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134312031","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}
