摘要:
An improved method is provided for assembling an integrated circuit component to a substrate by a solder bump interconnection that is reinforced by a polymer film. The component is attached to a region of the substrate by a plurality of solder bump interconnections that create a gap between the component interface and the substrate region. A polymer dam is applied to the region encircling the attached component spaced apart therefrom. A liquid polymer precursor material is applied to the region including the gap and is confined by the dam to prevent indiscriminate flow across the substrate. In one aspect of this invention, gas is vented from the gap through a passage in the substrate to enhance fill by the precursor liquid. In another aspect of this invention, the precursor liquid is injected into the gap through a passage in the substrate and spread outwardly therefrom. In any event, the precursor liquid infiltrates the gap about the solder interconnections and is cured to form a film that reinforces and protectively encapsulates the solder interconnections.

A method for forming a solder-bumped circuit trace on a planar dielectric substrate includes fabricating a trace having an intersection between linear section, depositing onto the trace a uniform thin plate of solder alloy and reflowing the solder alloy to form a bump at the intersection. More particularly, the trace comprises first and second linear sections that intersect at an angle between 45 degrees and 135 degrees and have widths preferably between 50 and 150 microns. The solder plate is deposited, preferably by electroplating, at a thickness between about 10 and 25 microns. Thereafter, when the trace is heated to melt the solder layer, the solder coalesces at the intersection to form the bump.
摘要:
A method for forming a solder-bumped terminal on a planar dielectric substrate utilizes a terminal of a particular configuration and comprises depositing onto the terminal a thin plate of solder alloy and reflowing the solder alloy to form a bump. The terminal configuration includes an enlarged terminal pad connected to a relatively narrow linear runner section. Preferably, the runner section width is between about 50 and 150 microns, whereas the pad width is between about 1.2 and 2.0 times the runner section width. The terminal is initially fabricated to include a metal layer adjacent the substrate formed, for example, of copper and a thin, outer plate composed of the solder alloy. The solder plate is deposited in a uniform thickness to both the terminal pad and the adjacent runner section. The terminal is then heated to melt the solder plate, whereupon the molten solder is drawn from the runner onto the enlarged pad to form a bump. In a preferred embodiment, a solder plate between about 10 and 25 microns is electrodeposited onto the terminal and reflowed to form a bump having a height between 60 and 80 microns.

A method for forming a plurality of solder bumps on an electronic component substrate utilizes a transfer plate to electrodeposit solder deposits and subsequently reflow the deposits onto the substrate. The plate comprises discrete pad electrodes formed of a ceramic material that is suitably electrically conductive to permit electroplating of the solder alloy, but is not wet by the molten solder to permit reflow onto the substrate. A preferred electrode material is an indium oxide compound. The solder deposits are plated onto the electrodes, and the transfer plate is superposed on the substrate such that the bumps rest upon bond pads on the substrate. The assembly is heated and cooled to melt and resolidify the solder alloy, whereupon the solder bonds to the substrate pads to form the bumps.

High speed high data interconnect apparatus includes a stiffening plate with optical fiber mounting groove defined on a surface thereof. The apparatus further includes a length of optical fiber mounted in the groove on the surface of the stiffening plate in a longitudinally extending direction generally parallel to the surface of the stiffening plate. A reflecting surface is positioned adjacent one, or both, of the opposed ends of the optical fiber to direct light at an angle of approximately ninety degrees to the optical path. A printed circuit board laminate is used to encase the stiffening plate and the optical fiber and includes a light via for the passage of light reflected by the reflecting surface. Bond pads are formed on a surface of the printed circuit board laminate adjacent the light via for the electrical connection of a light element, e.g. a VCSEL or photodiode, in communication with the light via.
