摘要:
An encapsulant for encapsulating electronic components and a method of making and/or using the encapsulant may be provided. An electronic device that includes the encapsulant may be provided. The curable encapsulant composition may include a mixture of a functionalized polymer and at least one reactive monomer composition. The reactive monomer composition may include a reactive monomer component that may be a low temperature solid and may be present in an amount in the reactive monomer composition a range of greater than about 20 weight percent based on the total weight of reactive monomer composition. The mixture, at about low temperature, may be solid or tack-free, or both solid and tack-free.
摘要:
A tack-free composition comprising a functionalized polymer having a having a glass transition temperature greater than about 24° C., a reactive monomer, said reactive monomer having a melting point or softening point greater than about 24° C., a reinforcing filler, and an initiator (curing agent) is provided. The tack-free composition is useful as a molding composition for encapsulation of electronic devices and electronic device components.
摘要:
A curable composition includes an olefinically unsaturated monomer and a poly(arylene ether) having two polymerizable groups and an intrinsic viscosity of about 0.05 to about 0.30 deciliters per gram. The composition exhibits an improved combination of high flow during molding and high post-cure stiffness and impact strength. The composition is particularly useful for fabricating plastic-packaged electronic devices.

A curable resin composition useful for encapsulating solid state devices is described. The composition includes an epoxy resin, a poly(arylene ether) resin, a latent cationic cure catalyst effective to cure the epoxy resin, and about 70 to about 95 weight percent of an inorganic filler, based on the total weight of the curable composition. A method of encapsulating a solid state device with the composition and encapsulated devices prepared with the composition are also described.

A molding composition suitable for encapsulating solid state devices includes an epoxy resin, a hardener, a poly(arylene ether) resin comprising less than 5 weight percent of particles greater than 100 micrometers, and about 70 to about 95 weight percent of a silica filler, based on the total weight of the composition. After curing, the composition exhibits improved increased copper adhesion and reduced shrinkage compared to conventional molding compositions.

A curable method useful for encapsulating solid state devices includes (A) an epoxy resin; (B) an effective amount of a cure catalyst comprising (B1) a first latent cationic cure catalyst comprising a diaryl iodonium hexafluoroantimonate salt; (B2) a second latent cationic cure catalyst comprising (B2a) a diaryl iodonium cation, and (B2b) an anion selected from perchlorate, imidodisulfurylfluoride anion, unsubstituted and substituted (C1-C12)-hydrocarbylsulfonates, (C2-C12)-perfluoroalkanoates, tetrafluoroborate, unsubstituted and substituted tetra-(C1-C12)-hydrocarbylborates, hexafluorophosphate, hexafluoroarsenate, tris(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)methyl anion, bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)methyl anion, bis(trifluoromethylsulfuryl)imide anion, and combinations thereof; and (B3) a cure co-catalyst selected from free-radical generating aromatic compounds, peroxy compounds, copper (II) salts of aliphatic carboxylic acids, copper (II) salts of aromatic carboxylic acids, copper (II) acetylacetonate, and combinations thereof; and (C) about 70 to about 95 weight percent of an inorganic filler, based on the total weight of the curable composition. The composition's cure catalyst allows the use of increased filler loadings, which in turn reduces moisture absorption and thermal expansion of the cured composition.

摘要:
A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) calibration device (360) for calibrating a phase relationship between at least two signals present on at least two radio frequency (RF) paths coupling a wireless communication unit and the MIMO calibration device (360) is described. The MIMO calibration device (360) is operably coupleable via at least two RF paths between a wireless communication unit and an antenna arrangement (219). The calibration device (360) comprises a processing module (490) configured to: process a coupled amount of at least one first signal from a first path operably coupleable to a first polarization of the antenna arrangement (219) to determine at least one pilot signal from said at least one first signal; process a coupled amount of at least one second signal from a second path operably coupleable to at least one second polarization feed of antenna arrangement (219), different to the first polarization, to determine the at least one pilot signal from said at least one second signal; and determine a first phase relationship of the same pilot signal between the at least two RF paths.
