摘要:
Assemblies for dissipating heat from integrated circuits and circuit chips are disclosed. The assemblies include a low melt solder as a thermal interface material (TIM) for the transfer of heat from a chip to a heat sink (HS), wherein the low melt solder has a melting point below the maximum operating temperature of the chip. Methods for making the assemblies are also disclosed.
摘要:
An interconnection structure suitable for flip-chip attachment of microelectronic device chips to packages, comprising a two, three or four layer ball-limiting metallurgy including an adhesion/reaction barrier layer, and having a solder wettable layer reactive with components of a tin-containing lead free solder, so that the solderable layer can be totally consumed during soldering, but a barrier layer remains after being placed in contact with the lead free solder during soldering. One or more lead-free solder balls is selectively situated on the solder wetting layer, the lead-free solder balls comprising tin as a predominant component and one or more alloying components.
