摘要:
Deformation of a lifting ring of bimetallic structure or memory metal is matched to a solder softening or melting temperature to apply forces to lift a chip from a supporting structure, such as a substrate or multi-chip module, only when the solder connections between the chip and the supporting structure are softened or melted. The temperature of the chip, module and solder connections there between is achieved in a commercially available box oven or belt furnace or the like and results in much reduced internal chip temperatures and thermal gradients within the chip as compared to known hot chip removal processes. Tensile and/or shear forces at solder connections and chip and substrate contacts are much reduced in comparison with known cold chip removal processes. Accordingly, the process is repeatable at will without significant damage to or alteration of electrical characteristics of the chip or substrate.

A cost efficient, highly reliable method to remove electronic devices and components from substrates eliminates separate tooling for every substrate and device or component size. The apparatus which implements the method allows for multiple device or component removal simultaneously, or in a single sequential operation, in a nondestructive action in a very low cost environment. A box oven and vacuum system and is used with different device or component and substrate sizes providing a simple, low cost, molten device removal procedure, eliminating the need for thermal monitor build and associated profiling for each product. The apparatus works independently of chip type or size, utilizing universal fixturing, and can be set up to pull multiple devices and/or components in a single run.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a new method of repairing electrical lines, and more particularly to repairing electrical lines having an opening at the module level with devices in place. Various methods and processes are used to repair this open or defective portion in an electrical conductor line. It could be repaired by securing a jumper wire or nugget across the open or the repair could be made by a deposition process, which includes but is not limited to filling the opening with a solder type material or inserting a solder coated electrical wire and heating the solder and allowing the solder to melt and repair the open. One of the attributes of this invention is the ability to repair on a substrate or module on which active components such as chips, and passive components such as pins, capacitors, etc. have been attached. The invention also allows repair of fine line patterns which are normally not repairable by conventional techniques.

摘要:
A softened and compliant fillet portion of a cured polymeric underfill in a flip-chip arrangement reduces occurences of fillet crackings caused by thermal stresses. The softening of the fillet is achieved by chemically breaking cross-links in the cured polymeric underfill material using a chemical solvent. In another embodiment, the softening of the fillet is achieved by applying heat using a controllable beam of thermal energy to break up the cross-links to thereby soften the fillet.
