In this study, we use the Cu/SnAg/Ni/Cu joint with a thickness of 7μm/8μm/2μm /5μm and 7μm/16μm/2μm /5μm. The diameter of the solder joint is about 30 μm and the UBM opening is 18 μm in diameter with 60 μm pitches. In order to measure the resistance changes, it was fabricated which constitute four probes. By using this method we can measure the resistance changes in microbump excluding the resistance...
Recently, three dimensional integration circuits technology has received much attention since the demands of functionality and performance in microelectronic packaging for electronic products are rapidly increasing. For high-performance 3D chip stacking, high density interconnections are required. In the current types of interconnects, solder micro bumps have been widely adopted. For fine pitch solder...
Recently, three dimensional integration circuits technology has received much attention because of the demands of gradually increasing functionality and performance in microelectronic packaging for different types of electronic devices. For 3D chip stacking, high density interconnections are required in high-performance electronic products. Though the bumping process used could be either electroplating...
In this study, various micro-bump-bonded structures with TCB + NCP processes were evaluated and developed. A commercial available snap-cure NCP material was applied for the joining processes study. Three types of micro bumps, Cu/Ni/Sn2.5Ag, Cu/Sn2.5Ag and Cu/Ni/Au- were fabricated and bonded to achieve joint structures of Cu/Ni/Sn2.5Ag/Ni/Cu, Cu/Ni/Sn2.5Ag/Au/Ni/Cu and Cu/Sn2.5Ag/Au/Ni/Cu. Moreover,...
With the increased demand of functionality in electronic device, three dimensional integration circuits technology together with downscaling of interconnection pitch present an important role for the development of next generation electronics. In the current types of interconnects, solder micro bumps have received much attention due to its low cost in material and process. For fine pitch solder micro...
Synchrotron radiation white beam x-ray microdiffraction was employed to study grain size and orientation of fine pitch Sn2.5Ag micro-bumps. The indexing of the Laue patterns shows that there is mostly one dominant grain orientation in each micro-bump. Moreover, a statistics study based on the characterization of 72 micro-bumps, shows that the [001] direction, which is the fast diffusion path for Ni/Cu...
In this paper, the performance of a complete halogen-free (HF) board assembled with five ball grid array components using daisy chains on an 8-layer high density interconnection printed circuit board (PCB) was examined using bending tests. The solder joint was composed of the SAC405 solder ball melted with the SAC105 solder paste on the Cu pad surface of either organic solderable preservative (OSP)...
In this study, we would analyzed the solid state reaction between Sn2.5Ag solder bump and Cu/Ni under-bump-metallization (UBM). After 150°C thermal aging, we observed that the intermetallic compounds (IMCs) at chip side and interposer side both were Ni3Sn4 IMCs. It indicated that the solder did not react with Cu and the Cu layer was completed. As thermal aging time increased, the thickness of Ni3Sn...
In this study, the assembly processes and reliability performance of interconnects with 30 μm pitch Cu/Ni/SnAg joints are evaluated, Plasma was treated on the both upper and lower chips before bonding, then fine gap control bonding process was applied to minimize the solder squeezing phenomenon which causes the adjacent joints bridged. Two kinds of underfills were used to fill the gap of around 20...
In this study, we study the metallurgical reactions at liquid state for different thickness Sn2.5Ag solder microbumps with Cu/Ni UBM. After 260°C reflow, we observed that the intermetallic compounds (IMCs) at chip side and interposer side both were Ni3Sn4 IMCs. As reflow time increased, the thickness of Ni3Sn4 IMCs and the concentration of Ag in the solder increased. We calculated the Ni3Sn4 IMCs...
Recently, the three-dimensional chip stacking technology with fine pitch and high input/output interconnects has emerged due to the requirements of multi-function and high performance in electronic devices. When the electronic packaging technology develops toward the miniaturization trend, the reliability of interconnect with fine pitch and high density solder bump interconnections will become a critical...
A complete halogen-free test vehicle was achieved by assembling five ball grid array (BGA) components with daisy-chain on an 8-layer high density interconnection (HDI) printed circuit board with a low-halide Sn1.0Ag0.5Cu (SAC105) Pb-free solder pastes for reducing the formation of Ag3Sn. Afterward a board-level cyclic bending test was enforced on the as-reflowed assemblies according to the JESD22-B113...
For the demand of multi-function and higher performance in electronic devices, the three-dimensional chip stacking technology with fine pitch and high input/output (I/O) interconnections has emerged recently. In addition, with the joint size becoming smaller, the current that each solder bump carried continues to increase, resulting in high current flowing in each individual joint. Therefore, electromigration...
The reliability of BGA assembly packages were evaluated by rapid fatigue life test. Three-point bend fatigue life test method has been developed for Sn-Ag-Cu 305 and rare-earth addition Sn-Ag-Cu-Ce solder joints. In this study, BGA assembly with Ni/Au surface finish was tested under cyclic bending load at room temperature. The bending fatigue life of Sn-Ag-Cu 305 solder joint was compared with rare-earth...
