摘要:
A method and device for testing and burning-in semiconductor circuits. The method and device permit the entire wafer to be tested by temporarily attaching the wafer to a test substrate using electrically conductive adhesive (ECA). The ECA conforms to deviations from co-planarity of the contact points of both the wafer and test substrate while providing a quality electrical connection at each point. ECA material can be deposited on either the wafer contacts or the substrate pads. In addition, the ECA may be deposited on C4 bumps or tin-capped lead bases. Variations in the method and device include filling vias of a non-conductive interposer with ECA. The electrical connection may be enhanced by forming conductive dendrites on test pads while the ECA is deposited on the wafer contacts. To further enhance the electrical connection, the ECA material can be plasma etched to remove some of its polymer matrix and to expose the electrically conductive particles on one side and then plating with palladium. After the palladium-plated ECA is brought into contact with aluminum pads, palladium-coated aluminum pads, or even C4 solder bumps, conductive dendrites are formed on the palladium-treated ECA bumps.

Self-aligning combination of a substrate with a chip is provided, using reverse patterns of raised recesses and raised shapes on the respective substrate and chip surfaces. High-force contact bump production is avoided. Reliable contact between a chip and substrate is achieved, with minimized skewing after chip placement.

Disclosed is a parallel processor packaging structure and a method for manufacturing the structure. The individual logic and memory elements are on printed circuit cards. These printed circuit boards and cards are, in turn, mounted on or connected to circuitized flexible substrates extending outwardly from a laminate of the circuitized, flexible substrates. Intercommunication is provided through a switch structure that is implemented in the laminate. The printed circuit cards are mounted on or connected to a plurality of circuitized flexible substrates, with one printed circuit card at each end of the circuitized flexible circuit. The circuitized flexible substrates connect the separate printed circuit boards and cards through the central laminate portion. This laminate portion provides XY plane and Z-axis interconnection for inter-processor, inter-memory, inter-processor/memory element, and processor to memory bussing interconnection, and communication. The planar circuitization, as data lines, address lines, and control lines of a logic chip or a memory chip are on the individual printed circuit boards and cards, which are connected through the circuitized flex, and communicate with other layers of flex through Z-axis circuitization (vias and through holes) in the laminate. Lamination of the individual subassemblies is accomplished with a low melting adhesive that is chemical compatible with (bondable to) the per fluorocarbon polymer between the subassemblies in the regions intended to be laminated, and, optionally, a high melting mask that is chemically incompatible with (not bondable to) the per fluorocarbon polymer between the subassemblies in the regions not intended to be laminated. The subassembly stack is heated to selectively effect adhesion and lamination in areas thereof intended to be laminated while avoiding lamination in areas not intended to be laminated.

A device and process for applying mixtures of adhesive formulations combined with solder flux such that flip chips may be rapidly encapsulated with such combinations without interfering with subsequent wafer processing steps are provided. Also provided is a wafer stencil designed in such a manner that the saw kerf lines separating individual chip dies are protected from coming into contact with the formulation. Extrusion screening using such wafer stencil is also provided.

Plated thru holes in a printed circuit card or board are filled with solder to provide as void free as possible solder fill. According to one method, an adhesive film is provided on the bottom side of a circuit card or board containing plated thru holes. A plurality of solder balls are then provided within at least one thru hole of the card or board. The total volume of the solder balls is greater than the volume of the plated thru hole. The solder balls are reflowed to thereby fill the plated thru hole with solder and provide solder on top of the thru hole.According to another method, a solder ball is provided above and in contact with a plated thru hole. The volume of the solder ball is greater than the volume of the plated thru hole. The solder ball is reflowed to thereby fill the plated thru hole with solder, and to provide solder both above and below the plated thru hole.
