The shrinkage in package size, cost reduction and improving thermal performance are driving the development of 2.5D Integrated Circuit. The development of 2.5D technology faces the challenge of thermal path and new structure. The present study applied three-dimensional finite volume methods to simulate the thermal behavior and the allocation of hot spots in the 2.5D package. The results of molding analysis revealed that the thermal resistance between molding/non-molding and expose-die packaging would influence the manufacturability and reliability of the package. In order to reduce the thermal resistance of package and the die to die integration, a design monitoring the installation ratio between package and substrate were investigated. The results of simulation indicate that the power map is non-uniform. The hot spot occurs as the ratio of die/power is over 25 %. The designs of implementing a shielding of ASIC/HBM and interconnect structure of package/substrate improve the maximum power of 2.5D FCBGA about 35~40%. The results of numerical analysis indicate that the above mentioned advance 2.5D IC structure design would lead to better thermal dissipation. The enhancements in the thermal dissipation behaviors are ascribed to the thermal path and the appropriate hot spot location layout. The 2.5D Integrated Circuit package mechanism and the design guidance for engineering application will be presented and discussed in this paper.","PeriodicalId":6790,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 22nd Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"479-482"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74884142","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 constitutive behaviour of SAC305 material with wide ranges of temperature and strain rate was obtained and correlated with the micromorphology on the specimen surface in this paper. With the temperature varies, the micromorphology of the solder specimens changed significantly. Specifically, as the temperature increases, more compression fringes along the loading direction appeared on the surface of the specimen, and the length of the fringes was elongated. Moreover, the mechanical properties of the solder showed obvious softening phenomenon, that is, the compressive strength decreased gradually. With the increase of the loading strain rate, the micromorphology showed the opposite evolution law compared with the consequences when the temperature increases. That is, the compression fringes gradually decrease and shorten, and the strength increased continuously, which shows an obvious hardening phenomenon. Under the condition of high temperature and low strain rate, a macro crack with the degree of 45° with respect to the compression axis can also be found on the surface of static compression specimen, and its length and width changed regularly with temperature and strain rate.","PeriodicalId":6790,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 22nd Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"66 1","pages":"312-315"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73970373","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 surface mount device (SMD) packages structure, materials, processes, and assembly process are quite different from through-hole packages, as well as quality requirements. The SMD package are mounted on board by soldering process, it can be sensitive to moisture when exposing to environment, the moisture content of the SMD packages must be well controlled in order to prevent the delamination occurring during board solder reflow process. To understanding the moisture sensitivity performance of SMD packages, moisture sensitivity level (MSL) classification is introduced to identify the SMD packages performance from MSL 1 to MSL 6 at a reflow temperature of 260°C. Package achieved the most robust level MSL 1 can be interpreted as not sensitive to moisture, the floor life is unlimited under typical room temperature and humidity, also do not need dry packing as special control. As the continuous tightening of automotive requirements, package delamination level after MSL 1 become more and more concerned as a semiconductor packaging focusing point, zero delamination after MSL 1 is being pushed to be a solid requirement by semiconductor customers. The delamination between epoxy molding compound (EMC) and leadframe (LF), as well as die attach adhesive (DA) and LF are well known and understood, and with quite mature solutions e.g. enhancing the interfacial adhesion etc. In this study, a unique MSL 1 delamination symptom in the area around DA fillet is reviewed and discussed, root cause is identified by surface analysis techniques, and links to the die attach effect. The potential optimization in terms of packaging materials and process is proposed and validated by assembled packages, which subject to MSL 1 conditions and 3 times reflow at 260°C. Material characterization on the optimized packaging material is conducted to understand and verify the material impact, delamination levels are checked by C-Mode Scanning Acoustic Microscope (C-SAM) to assess the package interfaces after MSL 1 and reflow. Result shows zero delamination after MSL 1 can be achieved by the proposed optimization, a packaging solution can be concluded to enable MSL 1 zero delamination for leaded SMD package.","PeriodicalId":6790,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 22nd Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"187 1","pages":"135-139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85629147","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}

Solder joint fatigue is a major failure mode for current power modules. Silver sintering die-attach technology significantly improves power module reliability. Due to the reliability problem at the interface between aluminum (Al) wire and a silver (Ag) layer, bonding Ag wire to the Ag layer is highly desired. Ag wire is harder and stiffer than Al wire, resulting in much higher wear and significantly reduced lifetime of consumables. This paper introduced the K&S CuEx™ bond tool and studied coupling and interaction between the bond tool and Ag wire. By optimizing the bonding process, the CuEx™ bond tools achieved 400,000 touchdowns, which is 80× more than the standard bond tool lifetime of 5,000 touchdowns. The difference between the front-cut and rear-cut process is discussed. By studying and optimizing the cutting process, the standard rear-cut cutter blade lifetime is increased 4×, from 50,000 cuts to 200,000 cuts. It is observed that Ag wire did not wear a wire guide much faster than Al wire. The standard wire guide exhibited minimum wear after 200,000 bonds.","PeriodicalId":6790,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 22nd Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"176-181"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88673039","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}
