摘要:
A three dimensional packaging approach reduces the overall footprint for interconnecting multiple semiconductor die. An three-dimensional folded module (10) produces a final package having a footprint size reduced by an approximate factor of four when compared to conventional electronic packaging. The module has a protective covering such as a cap (62) or a sealant (64) as a moisture barrier. Thus, high integration using flexible appendages (15, 25, 35, and 45) attached to a rigid substrate (12) and singularly folded above the substrate (12) results in both a small footprint package and also a light package. A reel-to-reel flex tape (56) assembly provides pre-tested flex boards (16, 26, 36, and 46) resulting in a cost-effective manufacturable package for semiconductor components.

A smartcard (10) is formed in part by a laminate layer (77). The laminate layer (77) is made up of a plurality of dielectric layers (11,30), insulating layers (45, 50), resistive layers (55), and electrically active structures. The electrically active structures include a capacitive structure (23) which is formed from one of the dielectric layers (11) and an antennae (32) which is made from a conductive layer that is formed into a spiral pattern on the another dielectric layer (30). These layers (11,30, 45, 50, 55) are formed separately and then pressed together to form the laminate layer (77).

An improved laser etch-back process forms a metal feature on an area of a polymeric or other non-metallic substrate. The process comprises forming a metal layer on the area that includes a first, relatively thick section, and a second, relatively thin section. Thereafter, the metal layer is uniformly irradiated with a laser pulse, but not to vaporize metal from the thick section. Thus, the laser pulse selectively etches the thin section to remove the metal and expose the substrate, without disturbing the thick section, which forms the desired metal feature.

A method for flip-chip bonding of two electronic components (27,28) does not use a flux material. A substrate (13) of one electronic component (28) is roughened during processing to provide an improved adhesive surface for a solder ball (12). The roughened pattern is replicated by additional conductive layers formed over the substrate or in an alternate embodiment may be formed on one of the intermediary or top conductive layers. Tacking pressure is applied to the two components so the solder ball (12) will be affixed to the roughened surface and provide a temporary bond. This bond ensures the surfaces of the two electrical components remain in contact with each other during reflow of the solder ball (12) to form a permanent bond.

High speed high data interconnect apparatus includes a stiffening plate with optical fiber mounting groove defined on a surface thereof. The apparatus further includes a length of optical fiber mounted in the groove on the surface of the stiffening plate in a longitudinally extending direction generally parallel to the surface of the stiffening plate. A reflecting surface is positioned adjacent one, or both, of the opposed ends of the optical fiber to direct light at an angle of approximately ninety degrees to the optical path. A printed circuit board laminate is used to encase the stiffening plate and the optical fiber and includes a light via for the passage of light reflected by the reflecting surface. Bond pads are formed on a surface of the printed circuit board laminate adjacent the light via for the electrical connection of a light element, e.g. a VCSEL or photodiode, in communication with the light via.
