摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a new scheme of providing a seal for semi-conductor substrates and chip carriers. More particularly, the invention encompasses a structure and a method that uses a multi-layer metallic seal to provide protection to chips on a chip carrier. This multi-layer metal seal provides both enhanced hermeticity lifetime and environmental protection.For the preferred embodiment the multi-layer metallic seal is a two layer, solder structure which is used to create a low cost, high reliability, hermetic seal for the module. This solder structure has a thick high melting point temperature region that is attached to a cap, and a thin interconnecting region of lower melting point temperature region for sealing the substrate to the cap.

A method and apparatus are provided for forming an elongated solder joint between two soldered substrates of an electronic module or an electronic module in the process of being fabricated by using expandable solder bump means disposed between the substrates. The expandable solder bumps means comprise solder having a higher reflow temperature than the solder used to join the substrates and expansion means such as a compressed spring encased within the solder and are activated (expanded) by reflowing at a higher temperature than the melting point temperature of the solder joints.

The present invention relates generally to a new scheme of providing a seal band for semi-conductor substrates and chip carriers. More particularly, the invention encompasses a structure and a method that uses a multi-layer metallic seal to provide protection to chips on a chip carrier. This multi-layer metal seal provides both enhanced hermeticity lifetime and environmental protection. For the preferred embodiment the multi-layer metallic seal band is a three layer, solder sandwich structure which is used to create a low cost, high reliability, hermetic seal for the module. This solder sandwich has a high melting temperature thick solder inner core, and lower melting point thin interconnecting solder layers, where the thin interconnecting solder layers may have similar or different melting points.

An integrated circuit chip mounting structure includes a chip carrier electrically connected to a circuit board with an integrated circuit chip mounted on the chip carrier. In addition, a thermally conductive device is thermally connected to the chip and a set of compressible support members are provided to transmit a portion of an applied compressive load from the thermally conductive device to the chip and chip carrier.

摘要:
A solder preform is provided for forming interconnections between multilayer ceramic substrates comprising an upper layer and lower layer of solder separated by an intermediate layer of a material which is wettable by solder and which does not melt at the temperatures used to reflow the solder and form the connections. The solder preform is used to join the substrates and is particularly useful to simultaneously electrically interconnect the substrates and to form a hermetic seal between the substrates being joined.
摘要:
A method and apparatus is provided for forming an elongated solder joint between two soldered substrates of an electronic module by applying a controlled separating force between the two soldered substrates during and/or after heating of the module. The solder joints are plasticized, preferably to the molten state above the liquidus temperature, and are thereby stretched and the module is then cooled to solidify the stretched joints. An apparatus and method are provided which preferably uses a vacuum device as the separating force to stretch the existing solder joints to the desired solder height and configuration which is preferably an hour-glass shape.
