Abstract:
Illustrative embodiments of anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACA) and associated methods are disclosed. In one illustrative embodiment, the ACA may comprise a binder curable using UV light and a plurality of particles suspended in the binder. Each of the plurality of particles may comprise a ferromagnetic material coated with a layer of electrically conductive material. The electrically conducting material may form electrically conductive and isolated parallel paths when the ACA is cured using UV light after being subjected to a magnetic field.

Abstract:
Illustrative embodiments of systems and method utilizing anisotropic conductive adhesive(s) (“ACA”) are disclosed. In at least one illustrative embodiment, a substrate may comprise one or more electrical contacts, and one or more integrated circuits may be secured to the substrate by ACA. The ACA may comprise a plurality of particles suspended in a binder, where the plurality of particles form electrically conductive and isolated parallel paths between the one or more electrical contacts and the one or more integrated circuits as a result of the ACA being subjected to a magnetic field before or during curing of the binder.
Abstract:
Illustrative embodiments of an anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACA) configured to be cured after being subjected to a magnetic field are disclosed. In at least one illustrative embodiment, the ACA may comprise a binder and a plurality of particles suspended in the binder. Each of the plurality of particles may comprise a ferromagnetic material coated with a layer of electrically conductive material and with a moisture barrier, such that the electrically conducting material forms electrically conductive and isolated parallel paths when the ACA is cured after being subjected to the magnetic field.
