The peeling stresses in soldered joints were evaluated under static and dynamic bending of the PCB. It shows that the peeling stress is dominated by the bending stress and the maximum occurs at the PCB end. In the soldered joint array, only a few soldered joints closed to the far end of the packaging are stressed and the most joints inside the array are almost stress free. Based on this observation, an approach was proposed to reduce the computation scale. By the approach, only 3 or 4 soldered joints are necessary to be included in the computational model.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"4 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84310324","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 top die surface and bonding wires are covered with an overmolding compound for environmental protection such that heat dissipation is typically limited in that direction. However, TEBGA is not without its unique challenges. In this paper, we present a study on the challenges of meeting the thermal performance and reliability requirements for a ASIC packaged with TEBGA. A localized deformation or ldquodimplerdquo of the TEBGA package is discovered during the package assembly process, where the heat-spreader is noted to have deformed under the die shadow, which results in a circular shaped indentation. This raises concerns about the impact on the thermal performance of the subsequent package to heat sink interface when it is integrated into the system. Solution to this potential problem rests on balancing thermal performance, reducing package stress level & understanding potential long term package reliability. Deformation of the package with each process step will be first described and particular attention will be given to the change of package profile after the die attach process; then a finite element analysis of the stress and deformation of the die attach process is discussed and important parameters affecting the deformation and stress are shown; moreover, a thermal resistance model assessing the thermal budget for this package in a system environment is reviewed and confirmation with numerical analysis & validation by experimental analysis are highlighted; furthermore, an interactive analysis is subsequently performed based on the FEA model for package stress/deformation and thermal resistance model to optimize the packaging solution; finally, balanced solution through this interactive optimization process is summarized and demonstrated in the manufacturing process.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"12 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":"84883343","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 mismatch in coefficient of thermal expansion between the different layers in the packages can generate high interfacial stresses due to thermal loading during fabrication and assembly. More and more functional materials at the nano scale are, such as self-assembly monolayer (SAM) and CNT, used in electronic packaging for the improvement of the interfacial performance, traditional continuum model without considering these nano materials are obviously not suitable to study performance of electronic packages. In this study, a multi-scale model was built to investigate interfacial failure between EMC and SAM coated copper substrate. The interfacial material behavior was derived from the molecular dynamics simulation. The constitutive relation for the EMC-SAM-Cu interface under tensile load was derived from MD simulation. Tapered double cantilever beam tests (TDCB) were conducted on the laminated specimens to quantify the load during delamination propagation along the EMC-Cu interface with SAM and without SAM. Finite element models of the DCB test were built using ANSYS with interfacial element at the Cu-EMC interface. The constitutive relations from MD simulations in the form of a traction-displacement plot were introduced into the cohesive zone model to study the constitutive response of the EMC-Cu interface under the tensile loading, which is traversed across the length scale from nanoscale to macroscale. and assigned to the continuum model. The critical loading forces for the EMC/Cu interface with SAM and without SAM were obtained from the multi-scale model. It was found that interfacial strength between EMC and Cu substrate could be improved by SAM. Based on the proposed method, the predicted results were found to be comparable with those from experimental measurement.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"148 Pt 4 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84080729","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}
