摘要:
An integrated circuit package fabricated by attaching a surface mount pin to a pin pad on a substrate using a Sn—Sb solder composition, where the quantity of Sb is in a range from 4 percent to 10 percent by weight. The Sn—Sb composition has a melting point above the melting point of commonly-used Sn—Pb solders. Thus, after the pins are surface mounted to the substrate, the pin integrity is not later compromised by assembly steps that reheat the substrate to a temperature sufficient to reflow the Sn—Pb solder. In one embodiment, the surface mount pins are attached to the bottom surface of an organic substrate using the Sn—Sb composition, and a flip-chip is attached to the top surface using Sn—Pb solder bumps. An integrated circuit package includes the substrate, the surface mount pins, and the Sn—Sb solder composition on the bonding surfaces of the pins.

An electronic assembly which has a ring that creates a dam for a thermal grease. The assembly may include an integrated circuit which is mounted to a substrate. The assembly may also include a cover which has an opening that exposes the integrated circuit. The ring is coupled to the integrated circuit and the cover. A thermal element may be placed adjacent to the integrated circuit and the thermal grease. The dam controls the flow of the thermal grease. The opening allows the thermal element to be placed adjacent to the integrated circuit. In one embodiment the thermal element may be attached to the cover by a hinge. The hinge thermal element may compensate for tolerances in the assembly without creating excessive forces on the integrated circuit.

The described embodiments of mechanisms of forming a package on package (PoP) structure involve bonding with connectors with non-solder metal balls to a packaging substrate. The non-solder metal balls may include a solder coating layer. The connectors with non-solder metal balls can maintain substantially the shape of the connectors and control the height of the bonding structures between upper and lower packages. The connectors with non-solder metal balls are also less likely to result in bridging between connectors or disconnection (or cold joint) of bonded connectors. As a result, the pitch of the connectors with non-solder metal balls can be kept small.

A method includes forming an under-bump metallurgy (UBM) layer overlying a substrate, and forming a mask overlying the UBM layer. The mask covers a first portion of the UBM layer, and a second portion of the UBM layer is exposed through an opening in the mask. A metal bump is formed in the opening and on the second portion of the UBM layer. The mask is then removed. A laser removal is performed to remove a part of the first portion of the UBM layer and to form an UBM.
