Abstract:
Two groups of interconnection devices and methods are described. Both provide columns between electronic packages and boards or between chips and substrates or the like. In the first group, called Thermal Flex Contact Carrier (TFCC), the column elements are carved out of a flat laminated structure and then formed to suit. In the second group, the carrier, which carries the connecting elements, is made out of a soluble or removable material, which acts at the same time, as a solder mask, to prevent the solder from wicking along the stem of the elements.
Abstract:
An electronic part mounting structure includes electronic part (2) having a plurality of electrode terminals (3), a substrate provided with connection terminals (6) in locations corresponding to these electrode terminals (3), and protruding electrode (7) for connecting one of electrode terminals (3) and one of connection terminals (6), where electrode terminal (3) of electronic part (2) and connection terminal (6) of substrate (5) are connected through protruding electrode (7), and protruding electrode (7) is formed of a conductive resin including a photosensitive resin and a conductive filler.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of an interposer for mounting a semiconductor die, as well as methods for forming the interposer, are disclosed. The interposer includes flexible solder pad elements that are formed from a core material of the interposer, such that the interposer may absorb thermally induced stresses and conform to warped or uneven surfaces. Embodiments of electronic device packages including a semiconductor die mounted to and electrically connected to the interposer, as well as methods for forming the electronic device packages, are also disclosed. In one electronic device package, the semiconductor die is electrically connected to the interposer with wire bonds attached to a routing layer of the interposer. In another electronic device package, the semiconductor die is electrically connected to the interposer by bonding the semiconductor die to the flexible solder pad elements of the interposer in a flip-chip configuration. A computer system incorporating an electronic device package with an interposer according to the present invention is also disclosed.
Abstract:
Methods and designs for increasing interconnect areas for interconnect bumps are disclosed. An interconnect bump may be formed on a substrate such that the interconnect bump extends beyond a contact pad onto a substrate. An interconnect bump may be formed on a larger contact pad, the bump having a large diameter.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit (IC) package includes a substrate and an IC die mounted on a first side of the substrate. The IC package also includes a plurality of capacitors mounted on a second side of the substrate. The second side is opposite to the first side. The IC package further includes a plurality of conductive contact pads formed on the second side of the substrate and interspersed among the capacitors. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
An IC chip package and related method are disclosed. The IC chip package may include a printed circuit board (PCB) coupled to a chip carrier by a land grid array (LGA) connector; a metal stiffener including at least one force-adjustable member contacting an underside of the PCB; and at least two couplers for coupling the metal stiffener to a lid or a heat sink, with the PCB, the chip carrier and the LGA connector therebetween. The force-adjustable member reduces the required assembly forces and accommodates natural and non-systematic out-of flatness tolerances of the PCB and the chip carrier.
Abstract:
Provided are a rotation joint capable of compensating for a mismatch due to thermal expansion and a semiconductor device having the same. The rotation joint can include a support member and a first contact member coupled to a first portion of the support member such that a surface of the first contact member is moveable relative to a surface of the support member adjacent to the first contact member. The first contact member can include solder material.

Abstract:
A printed circuit board unit includes a first board and a second board. First electrically-conductive terminals are fixed and exposed on the front surface of the first board within a specific area of the first board in a matrix. Second electrically-conductive terminals are arranged in a matrix and supported on the front surface of the second board. The second electrically-conductive terminals have flexibility. Each of the second electrically-conductive terminals is disengageably brought in contact with the corresponding first electrically-conductive terminal. A static pressure member is received on the back surface of the first board within an area corresponding to the specific area to generate a static pressure. An urging plate is overlaid on the static pressure member so that the static pressure member is interposed between the urging plate and the first board. The urging plate exhibits an urging force applied to the first board toward the second board.
