摘要:
A semiconductor chip connection component having numerous leads extending side-by-side across a gap in a support structure, each lead having a frangible section to permit detachment of one end of the lead from the support structure in a bonding process. The frangible sections are formed by treating the lead-forming material in an elongated treatment zone extending across the regions occupied by numerous leads. The process avoids the need for especially fine etching to form notches in the lateral edges of the leads.

A method of making a solder connection. An element bearing a solder mass is forcibly engaged with another element bearing a resilient metallic contact so that the contact wipes the surface of the solder mass and so that the contact is deformed and bears against the wiped surface. While the contact is in its deformed condition, the contact and solder mass are brought to an elevated bonding temperature sufficient to soften the solder, so that the contact penetrates into the solder mass under the influence of its own resilience. The contact bonds with the pure solder inside the solder mass, so that the effective bonding can be achieved even without flux.

Microelectronic contacts, such as flexible, tab-like, cantilever contacts, are provided with asperities disposed in a regular pattern. Each asperity has a sharp feature at its tip remote from the surface of the contact. As mating microelectronic elements are engaged with the contacts, a wiping action causes the sharp features of the asperities to scrape the mating element, so as to provide effective electrical interconnection and, optionally, effective metallurgical bonding between the contact and the mating element upon activation of a bonding material.

A microelectronic connection component includes a support such as a dielectric sheet having elongated leads extending along a surface. The leads have terminal ends permanently connected to the support and tip ends releasably connected to the support. The support is juxtaposed with a further element such as a semiconductor chip or wafer, and tip ends of the leads are bonded to contacts on the wafer using a bonding tool advanced through holes in the support. After bonding, the support and the further element are moved away from one another so as to deform the leads.
摘要:
A flexible sheet used in manufacture of microelectronic components is held on a frame formed from a rigid material so that the frame maintains the sheet under tension during processing and thereby stabilizes the dimensions of the sheet. The frame may be formed from a rigid, light-transmissive material such as a glass, and the bond between the frame and sheet may be made or released by light transmitted through the frame. Preferred features of the framed sheet minimize entrapment of processing liquids such as etch solutions, thereby minimizing carryover of processing solutions between steps. The frame may have contact openings which permit engagement of a metallic layer on the sheet by an electrode carrying electroplating or etching current without disturbing the main portion of the sheet where features are to be formed or treated.

A microelectronic connection component includes a dielectric sheet having an area array of elongated, strip-like leads. Each lead has a terminal end fastened to the sheet and a tip end detachable from the sheet. Each lead extends horizontally parallel to the sheet, from its terminal end to its tip end. The tip ends are attached to a second element, such as another dielectric sheet or a semiconductor wafer. The first and second elements are then moved relative to one another to advance the tip end of each lead vertically away from the dielectric sheet and deform the leads into a bent, vertically extensive configuration. The preferred structures provide semiconductor chip assemblies with a planar area array of contacts on the chip, an array of terminals on the sheet positioned so that each terminal is substantially over the corresponding contact, and an array of metal S-shaped ribbons connected between the terminals and contacts. A compliant dielectric material may be provided between the sheet and chip, substantially surrounding the S-shaped ribbons.

A microelectronic component for mounting a rigid substrate, such as a hybrid circuit to a rigid support substrate, such as a printed circuit board. The microelectronic component includes a rigid interposer which may have a chip mounted on its first surface; a pattern of contacts on the rigid interposer; a flexible interposer overlying the second surface of the rigid interposer; a pattern of terminals on the flexible interposer; flexible leads; and solder coated copper balls mounted on the flexible interposer. The microelectronic component may have a socket assembly mounted on the first surface of the rigid interposer. The microelectronic component may be mounted on a rigid support substrate.

Semiconductor chip packages and methods of fabricating the same. The package includes a thermally conductive protective structure having an indentation open to a front side and a flange surface at least partially surrounding the indentation and facing to the front of the structure. A chip is disposed in the indentation so that the front surface of the chip, with contacts thereon, faces toward the front of the structure. A flexible dielectric film having terminals thereon is placed on the flange surface, and a compliant material is disposed between the film and the flange surface. The terminals on the film are connected to the contacts on the chip. The individual terminals on the film are movable with respect to the protective structure, which facilitates mounting and compensation for thermal expansion.
