Abstract:
A Pb-free solder-connected structure having a sufficiently large connection strength, featuring an interface that remains stable even after the passage of time, and maintaining sufficient wettability and resistance against whiskers, and an electronic device. Specifically, a Pb-free solder, characterized in that an Sn-Ag-Bi solder which is a representative Pb-free solder is connected to an electrode that has an Sn-Bi layer formed on the surface thereof. Bi concentration in the Sb-Bi layer is preferably 1 to 20 % by weight to obtain a sufficient degree of wettability. When a more reliable joint is required, the Cu layer is formed under the Sn-Bi layer to obtain a connection portion having a sufficiently large interfacial strength.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of improving the manufacturing safety of weld joints (7) between a ceramic support (1) and a printed-circuit board (10). Said method consists of the deposition of a first metallization layer (5) resistant to alloy breakdown on the ceramic support (1), followed by the imprinting of a second metallization layer (6), which enhances wetting behaviour, on the first metallization layer (5). In this way the thickness of the overall metallization layer (5, 6) can be increased in the area of the edges (8) of a weld joint (7). The resulting raised solder ring in turn permits the fully automatic optical control of the weld joint (7).
Abstract:
A solder for electronic part bonding electrodes, not containing lead and having a fine structure and excellent heat resisting fatigue characteristics is provided. A solder for electronic part bonding electrodes, the main constituent components of which are Sn, Ag and Cu, characterized in that the weight ratio of these components is 92-97 wt.% of Sn, 3.0-6.0 wt.% of Ag and 0.1-2.0 wt.% of Cu. A small amount of Ag is added to solder which contains Sn as a main component, whereby an alloy having a fine alloy structure, capable of minimizing structure variation and having excellent heat resisting fatigue characteristics can be obtained. When a small amount of Cu is added, an intermetallic compound is formed, and the bond strength of the alloy is improved.

An interconnection contact structure assembly including an electronic component (102) having a surface and a conductive contact terminal (103) carried by the electronic component (102) and accessible at the surface. The contact structure (101) includes an internal flexible elongate member (106) having first (107) and second ends (108) and with the first end (107) forming a first intimate bond to the surface of the conductive contact terminal (103) without the use of a separate bonding material. An electrically conductive shell (116) is provided and is formed of at least one layer of a conductive material enveloping the elongate member (106) and forming a second intimate bond with at least a portion of the conductive contact terminal immediately adjacent the first intimate bond.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a process for the assembly of an electronic package in which the outer lead ends of a leadframe are solderable to external circuitry without the necessity of a tin or solder coat. An oxidation resistant layer is deposited on the leadframe prior to package assembly. The oxidation resistant layer is removed prior to outer lead soldering providing a clean, oxide free metallic surface for soldering.
Abstract:
Resilient contact structures (430) are mounted directly to bond pads (410) on semiconductor dies (402a, 402b), prior to the dies (402a, 402b) being singulated (separated) from a semiconductor wafer. This enables the semiconductor dies (402a, 402b) to be exercised (e.g., tested and/or burned-in) by connecting to the semiconductor dies (702, 704) with a circuit board (710) or the like having a plurality of terminals (712) disposed on a surface thereof. Subsequently, the semiconductor dies (402a, 402b) may be singulated from the semiconductor wafer, whereupon the same resilient contact structures (430) can be used to effect interconnections between the semiconductor dies and other electronic components (such as wiring substrates, semiconductor packages, etc.). Using the all-metallic composite interconnection elements (430) of the present invention as the resilient contact structures, burn-in (792) can be performed at temperatures of at least 150 °C, and can be completed in less than 60 minutes.

A method, and an assembly comprising a printed circuit board (1) and at least one component (4), a connection leg (3) of the component being wave-soldered to the printed circuit board (1), while any excess solder between adjacent connection legs (3) and between a connection leg (3) and the printed circuit board (1) is prevented in that the connection leg (3) lies against the printed circuit board (1) or in that the connection leg (3) comprises an end portion (7) connected to the printed circuit board (1) and an intermediate portion (8) situated between the end portion (7) and the envelope (5), while at least a side of the intermediate portion (8) remote from the printed circuit board (1) is solder-repellent.
Abstract:
An improved semiconductor device( 10) is disclosed having a predetermined amount of solder (36), or other electrically conductive binder adsorbed onto the exterior package leads (18) of the semiconductor device.(10) A de-wettable coating (24) comprising preferably nickel, or alternatively chromium, is plated to a superior portion (34) of the package leads,(18) such that, when the heat is applied to the substrate mounting end (32) of the leads,(18) solder (36) desorbes from the de-wettable layer (24) and flows down the lead (18) to the contact pads (40) on the mounting substrate (42) and forms a solder joint.(46) The amount of solder delivered to the contact pad for joint formation is determined by the thickness of the adsorbed solder layer (36) overlying each package lead.(18) Only enough solder is provided on each lead (18) sufficient to form the joint (46) thus avoiding solder bridging between adjacent contact pads.(40)
