The results show that the IMC status has a close relation with the impact behavior upon one reflow. When the heating factor increases beyond 800 s-degC, the thickness of IMC layer goes up, and the impact absorbed energy of solder bump raises quickly. Upon multi-reflow using the same profile, the IMC thickness changed a little but the failure modes varied a lot.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"76 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86053084","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}

For ACF interconnection, thermo-compression (T/C) bonding is the most common method. In this study, the effects of the some important processing parameters, including the increasing rate of bonding temperature and different Teflon films, on the reliability of the ACF joints were investigated. Results show that the performances of the ACF joints were affected by the distribution of conductive particles and the curing degree of the ACF, which was determined by the bonding temperature ramp rates.

The analysis presents that the small variations of thickness and concentration could significantly influence the light extraction efficiency and the correlated color temperature (CCT). With the increase of thickness and concentration, the light extraction efficiency is reduced, and the yellow blue ratio is increased, which means the color will tend to be warm white or yellow light. The reflector has slight influence on the performance, and the remote phosphor location is a better choice in packaging.

A high speed impact test was set up to measure the solder joint reliability. Differential impact speed and room temperature aging effect has been studied with Ni/Au substrate. Furthermore, two different solder alloys (96.5Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu, 98.5Sn-1Ag-0.5C) and three different reflow profiles are considered. This paper focuses on failure mode analysis and investigates the failure characteristics of lead-free solder joints, 96.5Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu and 98.5Sn-1Ag- 0.5C, which are aging at room temperature, respectively, then those solder are impacted at shear rates of 0.3 m/s and 1.0 m/s. Four types of failure mode are found in this high speed impact testing result. Mode M1 is the fracture around the interface but not remain the solder on pad. Mode M2 is fracture around the interface and remained the solder on pad. Mode M3 is fracture across the solder ball. Mode M4 is fracture on the substrate with lift the pad. The aging time could increase the interfacial strength, therefore the percentage of M3 and M4 mode failures increases in Ni/Au substrate. According the results, we find that in reflow profile A and reflow profile C, the failure percentage of Mode M2 is increasing; in reflow profile B, the failure percentage of Mode M3 and Mode M4 are large than Mode M1 and Mode M2.The failure mode M2 is the majority in solder alloy 96.5Sn-3Ag- 0.5Cu, and the failure mode M2 and M3 are the majority in solder alloy 98.5Sn-1Ag-0.5C.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"30 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87103609","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}
