The present invention relates to a technique for improving the tarnish and oxidation resistance of copper and copper base alloy materials. The technique of the present invention involves immersing the copper or copper base alloy material in a dilute aqueous chromic acid-phosphoric acid solution. After emerging from the chromic acid-phosphoric acid solution, the copper or copper base alloy material is preferably rinsed with a dilute aqueous caustic solution and dried. Copper and copper base alloy materials treated in accordance with the present invention have particular utility in printed circuit applications.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a treatment for improving the adhesive properties of metallic foils to be used in electrical and electronic applications. The treatment of the present invention comprises applying a light substantially uniform layer of metal to at least one surface of the metallic foil just prior to the formation of a plurality of dendritic structures on the surface. The metal layer renders the surface or surfaces to be treated more uniformly electrochemically active and consequently more receptive to the subsequent dendritic treatment. The treatment of the present invention has particular utility in improving the adhesive properties of wrought copper and copper alloy foils. An apparatus for performing the present treatment is also described.
摘要:
A method of introducing an anti-tarnish agent into the matrix of a tin coating to reduce oxidation and/or yellowing of the tin coating. The agent is preferably zinc, indium or phosphorous and can be deposited in a molten form to alloy with the existing tin coating. Alternatively, the existing tin coating may be exposed to a chemical bath including the agent and later heated to reflow the tin coating and agent thereby incorporating the agent into the matrix of the tin coating.
摘要:
Anodizable components for electronic packaging applications, such as substrates for printed circuit boards or ball grid array electronic packages, having conductive circuitry formed on an electrically non-conductive anodic film. To inhibit the formation of electrically conductive precipitates in the anodic film that can form an electrical short circuit between the circuit traces and the metallic core of the component, the metallic core is formed from an anodizable alloy having below thresholds of precipitate forming constituents. Such precipitate forming constituents include iron, silicon and manganese.

There is provided a lead frame with enhanced adhesion to a polymer resin. The lead frame is coated with a thin layer of containing a mixture of chromium and zinc. A mixture of chromium and zinc with the zinc-to-chromium ratio in excess of about 4:1 is most preferred. The coated lead frames exhibit improved adhesion to a polymeric resin.

A method for the manufacture of an electronic circuit is provided. A non-conductive substrate is provided with an indexing means and personality windows by etching. An adhesive is deposited on one surface of the substrate to coat at least those regions to be laminated to a metallic foil. The foil is bonded to the non-conductive substrate and patterned into a plurality of circuit traces. Mechanical stamping of the substrate is not required providing a means to inexpensively manufacture small quantities of a desired circuit configuration.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process and apparatus for forming in situ surface treated metal foil. The apparatus includes a cathode and anode arranged and/or shaped to define a plating region characterized by a first zone having a first interelectrode gap and a second zone having a second interelectrode gap smaller than the first interelectrode gap. It has been found that by providing such an arrangement it is possible to generate in the first zone a localized current density below the limiting current density sufficient to plate metal foil onto the cathode and to simultaneously generate in the second zone a localized current density above the limiting current density sufficient to form dendrites on the freshly produced foil.
摘要:
A method for improving adhesion from a leadframe to a metallic wire is disclosed including using a laser beam to remove selected areas of an package adhesion enhancing layer to expose a layer on the leadframe which has a higher adhesion to metallic wires. The package adhesion enhancing layer is from the group consisting essentially of aluminum oxide, anti-tarnish finishes, and dielectrics. The exposed layer on the leadframe is selected from the group consisting essentially of silver, nickel, palladium.
