摘要:
The invention is directed to an improved microelectronics device that reduces BEOL delamination by reducing the tensile stress imposed on the via which connects first level interconnects with the BEOL. Tensile stress imposed on the via is reduced by shifting the via towards the center of a silicon chip or alternatively shifting the UBM towards the corners of the silicon chip.

An apparatus for determining a thickness change of thermal interface material (TIM) disposed between first and second elements is provided. The apparatus includes a first part movable with the first element in a movement direction along which the TIM thickness is to be determined, a second part movable with the second element in the movement direction and a sensor to measure a distance between the first and second parts in the movement direction, the measured distance being related to the TIM thickness change.

Disclosed is a multilayer thermal interface material which includes a first layer of metallic thermal interface material, a buffer layer and preferably a second layer of thermal interface material which may be metallic or nonmetallic. The multilayer thermal interface material is used in conjunction with a semiconductor device assembly of a chip carrier substrate, a heat spreader for attaching to the substrate, a semiconductor device mounted on the substrate and underneath the heat spreader and the multilayer thermal interface material interposed between the heat spreader and the semiconductor device. The heat spreader has a first coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), CTE1, the buffer layer has a second CTE, CTE2, and the semiconductor device has a third CTE, CTE3, wherein CTE1>CTE2>CTE3.

An apparatus for determining a magnitude of a compressive load applied to a piston including a compliant film disposed between first and second elements is provided. The apparatus includes a first part movable with the first element in a movement direction along which the magnitude of the compressive load is to be determined, a second part movable with the second element in the movement direction and a sensor to measure a distance between the first and second parts in the movement direction, the measured distance being related to a deformation of the compliant film as the compressive load is applied.
摘要:
A frontside of a chip is bonded to a top surface of a chip carrier. Seal material is dispensed at a periphery of the top surface of the chip carrier. A solder TIM having a first side and a second side is provided. The first side of the TIM contacts a backside of the chip. A reflow is performed to melt the TIM. The second side of the TIM is bonded to a lid. The seal material is cured. The lid is attached to the top surface of the chip carrier. Backfill material is injected into a space between the top surface of the chip carrier and the lid. The backfill material abuts sides of the TIM. The backfill material is cured. TIM solder cracking and associated thermal degradation are mitigated.
