Abstract:
Embodiments may relate to a microelectronic package that includes a die coupled with a package substrate. A solder thermal interface material (STIM) may be coupled with the die such that the die is between the STIM and the package substrate. An integrated heat spreader (IHS) may be coupled with the STIM such that the STIM is between the IHS and the die, and the IHS may include a feature that is to control bleed-out of the STIM during STIM reflow based on surface tension of the STIM. Other embodiments may be described or claimed.
Abstract:
Some embodiments relate to an electronic package. The electronic package includes a substrate and a die attached to the substrate. The electronic package further includes an underfill positioned between the die and the substrate due to capillary action. A support surrounds the die. The support provides the same beneficial fillet geometry on all die edges. Therefore, the support provides similar stress reduction on all die edges. Other embodiments relate to method of fabricating an electronic package. The method includes attaching a die to a substrate and inserting an underfill between the die and the substrate using capillary action. The method further includes placing a support around the die such that the support surrounds the die.
Abstract:
A microelectronic die may be formed with chamfer corners for reducing stresses which can lead to delamination and/or cracking failures when such a microelectronic die is incorporated into a microelectronic package. In one embodiment, a microelectronic die may include at least one substantially planar chamfering side extending between at least two adjacent sides of a microelectronic die. In another embodiment, a microelectronic die may include at least one substantially curved or arcuate chamfering side extending between at least two adjacent sides of a microelectronic die.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present description include methods for attaching a microelectronic device to a microelectronic substrate with interconnection structures after disposing of an underfill material on the microelectronic device, wherein filler particles within the underfill material may be repelled away from the interconnection structures prior to connecting the microelectronic device to the microelectronic structure. These methods may include inducing a charge on the interconnection structures and may include placing the interconnection structures between opposing plates and producing a bias between the opposing plates after depositing the underfill material on the interconnection structures.

Abstract:
A method for attaching an integrated circuit (IC) to an IC package substrate includes forming a solder bump on a bond pad of an IC die, forming a solder-wetting protrusion on a bond pad of an IC package substrate, and bonding the solder bump of the IC die to the solder-wetting protrusion of the IC package substrate.
