Abstract:
A method for cleaning and coating a conductor in a plasma reaction chamber utilizing a plasma gas mixture containing Argon and CF.sub.4 to clean and coat a conductor. The method for cleaning and coating a conductor includes the combination of cleaning processes including, physical reduction and chemical reaction and the formation of a polymerization passivation film formed on oxyfluoro metal compositions (SnO.sub.x F.sub.y) which occur during exposure of a conductor to the process of the invention. The polymerization passivation film is formed as a result of the combination of the degraded carbon Tetrafloride (CF.sub.4) gas and degraded environmental and casual hydrocarbons which are present in the form of a variety of unspecified organic contaminants to form crude polymeric molecules in the high energy environment of the plasma. The treatment of conductive surfaces according to the method of the present invention has shown to allow a soldering operation for 3 to 8 hours following treatment without additional preparation, cleaning or treatment.
Abstract:
An electrical joint is provided between first and second electrical leads having different inner diameters. The electrical joint is formed using an electrically conductive transition post including a disk-shaped a separation member, a first cylindrical mounting post having a first diameter integral with the separation member and extending away therefrom in a first direction, and a second cylindrical mounting post having a second diameter integral with the separation member and extending away therefrom in a second direction generally opposite the first direction. The separation member lies in a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of the first and second mounting posts and has a diameter greater than that of either the first or the second mounting post. A first electrical lead is fittingly received on the first mounting post and a second electrical lead is fittingly received on the second mounting post. In each instance, the free ends of the electrical leads abut the separation member. Thereupon, the first and second electrical leads are welded to the first and second mounting posts, respectively, such that electrical continuity is achieved between the first and second electrical leads. In another embodiment, each of the first and second mounting posts may have a threaded outer peripheral surface for engageably receiving thereon an associated one of the electrical leads.
Abstract:
A machine and method for bonding puncture-type conductive contact members of an interconnect to the bond pads of a bare semiconductor die includes the use of one or two ultrasonic vibrators mounted to vibrate one or both of the die and interconnect. A short axial linear burst of ultrasonic energy enables the contact members to pierce hard oxide layers on the surfaces of the bond pads at a much lower compressive force and rapidly achieve full penetration depth.
Abstract:
A resistance welding method in which a welding current is passed through a welding portion of a material to be welded in a condition that the welding portion is put in between a pair of electrodes, so that the welding portion is fused and welded by use of the resistance heating caused by conduction of the welding current under pressure applied between the pair of electrodes, characterized by comprising the steps of: measuring a welding width of the welding portion by the width measurement unit; calculating a reference welding height of the welding portion from the measured welding width on the basis of a predetermined reference welding sectional area of the welding portion; passing the welding current through the welding portion until the height of the welding portion reaches the calculated reference welding height; and displaying current-conduction time from the start to end of conduction of the welding current on the display unit.
Abstract:
The claimed invention provides an ultrasonic welding method, whereupon joint portions in which a copper foil portion and a twisted-wire electric cable are placed one upon the other in each groove of a resin casing, the grooves having a through-hole portion. In the through-hole portion, the copper foil portion and the twisted-wire electric cable are placed one upon the other. Welding is performed in a state in which the piled-up portion is sandwiched between a welding tip formed at an end of a welding head and an anvil. Thus, the joint portion between the copper foil portion and the twisted-wire electric cable invade and are invaded by a portion of the resin casing softened by welding heat. The joint portion is fastened not only by welding, but also by the solidified resin.
Abstract:
Electrical connector components, for example, a pin terminal constructed from a solid wire pin and a formed metal body, are attached to a web carrier and fed through an inductive heating station, thereby bonding the components together. The components are pre-treated with a conductive bonding material which can be cured, flowed, or set by applying heat. The web carrier may be wound on a first spool, fed through the inductive heating station, and wound onto a second spool, for ready feed to and from successive production steps. The temperature of the heating operation may be controlled by varying the speed of the web feed and the strength of the inductive field, so as to ensure repeatable, uniform heating, at a high economical speed. In addition, the tip of the pin can be cooled during the heating operation, to prevent heat damage or contamination of the pin.

Abstract:
There is disclosed herein a method for attaching a terminal to a metallic mating surface on a workpiece by friction joining, comprising the steps of: (1) providing the terminal and the workpiece, wherein the terminal comprises an electrically conductive body having a top end to which an electrical connector may be attached, a bottom end having a bottom surface generally conforming to the mating surface of the workpiece, a rotational axis substantially orthogonal to the bottom surface about which the terminal may be rotated, and a layer of solder attached to the bottom surface wherein the layer has an outer perimeter and defines a central solder-free region about the axis; (2) rotating the terminal about its rotational axis at a predetermined rotational speed while holding the workpiece stationary; (3) pressing together the rotating terminal and the stationary workpiece using a predetermined forging force for a predetermined length of time, so as to promote a galling bond between the mating surfaces; and (4) abruptly stopping the rotation of the terminal. During the pressing together step, the solder is generally maintained at an average temperature below its melting temperature.
