摘要:
A liquid thermal interface (LTI) including a mixture of a linearly structured polymer doped with crosslinked networks and related method are presented. The LTI exhibits reduced liquid polymer macromolecule mobility, and thus increased surface tension. An embodiment of the method includes mixing a crosslinker with a linearly structured polymer to form a mixture, wherein the crosslinker includes a base agent including a vinyl-terminated or branched polydimethylsiloxane, and a curing agent including a hydrogen-terminated polydimethylsiloxane; and curing the mixture. The crosslinker functions as cages to block linear or branched linear macromolecules and prevents them from sliding into each other, thus increasing surface tension of the resulting LTI.

摘要:
Liquid compositions containing a specific hindered phenol or a hindered phenol in combination with an aromatic phosphite are provided which are used as a thermal interface between a heatsink and a chip during a test procedure for electronic components which compositions enhance the thermal conductivity between the heatsink and the chip, are easily removed from the heatsink and the chip after the test procedure without any deleterious residue and which allow the use of high temperatures for extended periods during the test procedure without any significant degradation of the composition. A method for using the compositions in electronic component test procedures such as burn-in procedures is also provided.
摘要:
A heat sink for use in the burn-in of an I/C chip, which chip has a generally “flat” surface. The heat sink has a “flat” surface with micro-channels therein, positioned to open and close in and out of contact against the flat surface of an I/C chip being burned-in. At least one liquid opening communicates with said essentially flat surface on the heat sink to continuously apply liquid between the heat sink and the chip. A liquid inlet is provided to supply liquid to said at least one liquid opening. A recovery channel is positioned to recover liquid from between the heat sink and the chip, and an exhaust member is provided to carry liquid from said recovery channel to the exterior of the heat sink. The invention also includes a method of burning-in a chip.

摘要:
A method and system for testing wafers, and particularly a wafer test system employing probes to provide for electrical contact with a device under test (DUT) which is located on a wafer. More particularly, also provided is a method and system for implementing wafer tests where the probes first contact a simulated wafer which incorporates an array of spaced load cells to determine the optimum probe overdrive. The DUT is then tested at the optimum overdrive.
摘要:
A socket for testing or burning-in electronic components has a cover including a heat sink and a sensor. The heat sink and sensor are spring loaded so they make direct, temporary contact to an electronic component in the socket during burn-in. A heat transferring device is coupled to each heat sink. The heat transferring device uses input from the sensor to provide heat or cooling to each heat sink to individually control the temperature of each component. The heat transferring device can be an electric heater or a cooling device, such as a fan. Both can also be used. A plurality of these sockets are used in a forced air convective oven for burning-in a plurality of electronic components at one time. The oven provides oven heating and cooling for all components while the socket heater and sensor provide individual temperature control for each component.
摘要:
A heat dissipation apparatus for cooling one or more electronic devices. The apparatus utilizes a moving heat sink a portion of which is in contact with the device to be cooled. The moving heat sink may be in the form of a rotating disk, moving belt or strip. The heat sink may be made from various materials such as metals or plastics.
摘要:
The subject invention encompasses a thermal processing furnace having an elongated cylindrical processing chamber surrounding a tower assembly capable of receiving one or more articles to be processed. A pedestal assembly supports the tower assembly and contains a quartz door thereon which is axially translatable relative to the processing chamber into an inserted position where the tower assembly is inserted into the processing chamber. A quartz flange located along the perimeter of an opening at the end of the processing chamber contacts the quartz door forming a quartz seal therewith when the pedestal assembly is moved into the inserted position. A scavenger cavity is located at the end of the chamber having the opening therein and is in fluid flow relationship with the contact area between the quartz flange and the quartz door forming a quartz seal. Gas from within the processing chamber which may leak through the quartz seal is captured by the scavenger cavity and evacuated by an evacuation means.
