Abstract:
Resilient contact structures extend from a top surface of a support substrate and solder-ball (or other suitable) contact structures are disposed on a bottom surface of the support substrate. Interconnection elements (110) are used as the resilient contact structures and are disposed atop the support substrate. Selected ones of the resilient contact structures atop the support substrate are connected, via the support substrate, to corresponding ones of the contact structures on the bottom surface of the support substrate. In an embodiment intended to receive an LGA-type semiconductor package (304), pressure contact is made between the resilient contact structures and external connection points of the semiconductor package with a contact force which is generally normal to the top surface of the support substrate (302). In an embodiment intended to receive a BGA-type semiconductor package (404), pressure contact is made between the resilient contact structures and external connection points of the semiconductor package with a contact force which is generally parallel to the top surface of the support substrate (402).
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To preclude a bump of a connection substrate from being crushed, even when a pressing lid and a carrier housing are combined under the condition where no bare chip exists. SOLUTION: This carrier unit 40 includes the carrier housing 46, a contact sheet 44 provided with the bump 44B pressed onto an electrode group of the stored bare chips by a pressing body 56, the pressing lid 52, and a latch mechanism 50. The bump 44B is not crushed even under the condition where no bare chip exists, since pressing parts 56wa, 56wb of the pressing body 56 have respectively recesses 56A, 56B inserted with the bump 44B.

An electronic component assembly is disclosed. The electronic component assembly may comprise a printed circuit board, a frame secured to the printed circuit board and one or more electronic components mounted in the frame and arranged in electrical contact with conductive traces of the printed circuit board, wherein no solder is used to connect the electronic components to the printed circuit board. A method for assembling the electronic component assembly is also disclosed.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make improvements in an interconnection between microelectronic components by a method wherein a flexible extension element is mounted on a contact region on the electronic component and so formed as to be elastic. SOLUTION: A wire 502 is wrapped up in or covered with a first inner coating layer 520, and the first inner coating layer 520 is coated with a second outer coating layer 522 for the formation of a wire stem 530. The first layer 520 of the wire stem 530 is made to cover a terminal 512 as a contacting region on a semiconductor substrate 508 where the end 502a of the wire 502 is bonded, and the wire 502 of soft gold material is mounted and fixed to the terminal 512. By this setup, improvements can be made in an interconnection between microelectronic components.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To prevent the deformation and damage of a pellet and the like due to difference in thermal expansion coefficient of a wafer and a package substrate, by pushing the pellet to the package substrate by the elastic force of a fixing member, and holding the pellet. CONSTITUTION:A full wafer LSI5, which is attached to a wiring substrate 6, is held by an annular cap 11, which is attached to a package substrate 2 and its upper part. The cap 11 comprises a material having strong elastic force. The cap 11 fixed to the package substrate 2 by bolts 12 at a plurality of positions on the peripheral part. An edge part 13 is provided so as to face downward at the outermost edge of the cap. Meanwhile, a protruded part 14 is provided so as to face downward at the inner surface edge. Namely, the protruded part 14 elastically pushes the wiring substrate 6 and the full wafer LSI5 toward the bottom part of a cavity 3. Therefore, the wiring substrate 6 and the full wafer LSI5 are elastically held with respect to the package substrate 2 without using a bonding agent and the like.
