This paper comprises the numerical approach and the experimental validation technique developed to obtain the residual stresses building up during encapsulation process of integrated circuits. Residual stresses can be divided into cure and cooling induced parts. The curing originated stress had been mostly neglected in the literature and a special attention had always been given to detection of the...
Thermosetting polymers are widely used in electronic industry as encapsulants of electronic devices. It is well known that properties of polymers and polymer-based composites like molding compounds are highly dependent on conditions like: temperature, time, humidity, degree of cure etc. These effects are investigated extensively in the past. Surprisingly, the effect of postcure and thermal aging on...
Commercial FEM software codes do not directly support the cure dependency of polymers behavior. In electronics packaging, for example, cure shrinkage of the molding compound is consequently treated as a surplus to thermal contraction and its changes in visco-elastic behavior during curing are usually ignored. This give rise to inaccurate results and may cause difficulties even in recognizing factors...
During the encapsulation of electronic components stresses are generated due to curing effects and the difference in thermal shrinkage between molding compound and die. These residual stresses add up to the stresses generated during thermal cycling and mechanical loading and may eventually lead to product failure. In this paper we focus on three commercial molding compounds and and analyze in detail...
