摘要： 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.

摘要： A method of encapsulating a semiconductor device. The encapsulation method includes a semiconductor chip package assembly having a spacer layer between a top surface of a sheet-like substrate and a contact bearing surface of a semiconductor chip, wherein the substrate has conductive leads thereon, the leads being electrically connected to terminals on a first end and bonded to respective chip contacts on a second end. Typically, the spacer layer is comprised of a compliant or elastomeric material. A protective layer is attached on a bottom surface of the substrate so as to cover the terminals on the substrate. A flowable, curable encapsulant material is deposited around a periphery of the semiconductor chip after the attachment of the protective layer so as to encapsulate the leads. The encapsulant material is then cured. Typically, this encapsulation method is performed on a plurality of chip assemblies simultaneously.

摘要： An interposer for interconnection between microelectronic circuit panels has contacts at its surfaces. Each contact extends from a central conductor, and has a peripheral portion adapted to contract radially inwardly toward the central conductor response to a force applied by a contact pad defining a central hole on the engaged circuit panel. Thus, when the circuit panels are compressed with the interposers, the contacts contract radially inwardly and wipe across the pads. The wiping action facilitates bonding of the contacts to the pads, as by friction welding, or by a conductive bonding material carried on the contacts themselves.

摘要： A method of making a semiconductor chip assembly, including providing a dielectric element with a plurality of electrically conductive terminals, disposing an expander ring over the dielectric element so that a semiconductor chip on the dielectric layer is disposed in a central opening in the expander ring, and disposing an encapsulant in the gap between the expander ring and the semiconductor chip. The size of the gap is controlled to minimize the pressure exerted on the leads by the elastomer as it expands and contracts in response to changes in temperature. The semiconductor chip and expander ring may also be connected to a heat sink or thermal spreader with a compliant adhesive.

摘要： A tool having a coining projection is operative for forming a frangible portion in a lead of a microelectronic connection component by application of a compressive force. The coining projection is supported on a pedestal formed from a tool body. In an alternative embodiment, the pedestal is formed on a backing plate for use in circuits up construction. The pedestal is sized and shaped so as to be received within a gap formed in a support layer for the leads. By application of the compressive force, the coining projection will penetrate the lead within the region of the gap to form the frangible portion.

摘要： A microelectronic assembly such as an assembly of a semiconductor chip and mounting substrate is encapsulated by applying an encapsulant to the assembly while maintaining the assembly under a subatmospheric pressure to minimize gas entrapment in the encapsulant. After the encapsulant flow around the assembly, a higher pressure is applied, causing collapse of any voids in the encapsulant. The encapsulant is then cured. The apparatus used for such encapsulation may include a chamber and a dispenser having a nozzle disposed within the chamber, and may also include a device for moving the nozzle or the assembly relative to the chamber.

摘要： An improved bond ribbon design, said bond ribbon having a dual taper that functions to localize the bending along a predetermined distribution of the bond ribbon during the bonding of the bond ribbon to an associated contact of a semiconductor chip. Use of the dual-tapered bond ribbons during bonding provides a bonded bond ribbon having a form that is substantially s-shaped. The radii of curvature making out the curves of the s-shaped configuration can be predetermined and controlled by the length and taper of the individual tapered section. The improved bond ribbon further comprises an anchor pad, said anchor pad characterized by a large surface area that decreases the likelihood of delamination of it from a supporting dielectric structure. A multiplicity of these improved bond ribbons can be fabricated in an external connection component so as to facilitate the alignment and bonding process of multiple bond ribbons to corresponding contacts of the semiconductor chip and can be designed, configured or placed such that the corner contact of the semiconductor chip are accessible for bonding. With respect to the problems associated with accessing the corner contacts of a semiconductor chip when using the connection component, three approaches are offered as solutions.

摘要： A semiconductor chip having contacts on the central region of its top surface is provided with a dielectric element overlying the central portion of the top surface. The dielectric element has a first surface facing toward the chip and a second surface facing away from the chip, a hole encompassing the central contacts and an edge bounding the hole. Central contact leads extend from the central contacts on the chip to central terminals on the dielectric element. The terminals on the dielectric element may be connected to a substrate using techniques commonly employed in surface mounting of electrical devices, such as solder bonding. The leads, and preferably the dielectric element, are flexible so that the terminals are moveable with respect to the contacts on the chip, to compensate for differential thermal expansion of the chip and substrate. The dielectric element may be provided with a compliant layer disposed between the terminals and the chip. The entire assembly is compact.
