A method of making a multiple part compliant interface for a microelectronic package including the steps of providing a first microelectronic element having electrically conductive parts, providing an array of curable elastomer support pads in contact with the first microelectronic element, curing the curable elastomer support pads while the support pads remain in contact with the first microelectronic element and providing an array of adhesive pads in contact with the support pads, whereby each adhesive pad is disposed over and in substantial alignment with one of the support pads. A second microelectronic element having electrically conductive parts is then assembled in contact with the array of adhesive pads by abutting the second microelectronic element against the array of adhesive pads and compressing the adhesive pads and support pads between the first and second microelectronic elements. The array of adhesive pads are then cured and the electrically conductive parts of the first and second microelectronic elements are interconnected. The array of support pads define channels running between any two adjacent support pads. A flowable curable elastomer encapsulant may be disposed within the channels after the electrically connecting step. Preferably, the support pads, adhesive pads and the encapsulant comprise substantially similar materials, such as silicone, in order to avoid problems associated with thermal cycling, such as air entrapment and/or voiding.

Flexible leads for making electrical connection in microelectronic components include a frangible intermediate section. The frangible intermediate section is formed by a region within the lead having weakened mechanical integrity. The lead is formed by depositing a layer of lead forming material over an irregularity provided on a supporting substrate so as to provide a region of altered crystal morphology. The region of altered crystal morphology provides the lead with the weakened region.

An apparatus for processing flexible tape for microelectronic assemblies includes a base having a top surface, a bottom surface and an aperture extending between the top and bottom surfaces, and a platform having a top surface for engaging a flexible tape used for making microelectronic assemblies, such as semiconductor chip packages. The platform is sized to fit within the aperture extending between the top and bottom surfaces of the base. The base is pivotally secured at one end of the platform so that when the base pivots with respect to the platform, the flexible tape engaged by the platform remains on the platform. The assembly also includes a carrier frame having a slot and a clamp sized to pass through the slot and the carrier frame and the aperture in the base for securing the flexible tape to the top surface of the platform as the base pivots with respect to the platform.

A method of making a microelectronic assembly includes providing a flexible tape having first and second surfaces with a plurality of connection components in a central region of the flexible tape, providing a carrier frame having top and bottom surfaces and a slot extending therebetween and placing the flexible tape in contact with the top surface of the carrier frame. Next a resilient element is provided on each connection component and the flexible tape is passed through the slot so that the flexible tape disengages from the top surface of the carrier frame, passes through the slot and engages the bottom surface of the carrier frame. The carrier frame includes one or more interior edges defining the slot and a cut-out region contiguous with one end of the slot. The cut-out region also extends between the top and bottom surfaces of the carrier frame and the width of the cut-out region is greater than the width of the flexible tape so that at least one side border region of the flexible tape is pivotally secured to the carrier frame.
