An electrical connector for electrically connecting a first electronic element to a second electronic element includes an insulating body and multiple conductors. The insulating body has multiple accommodating holes. Each conductor is accommodated in a corresponding accommodating hole. Each conductor has an elastic insulator and low melting point liquid metal wrapping a surface of the elastic insulator, such that a continuous conducting path is formed by the liquid metal between the first electronic element and the second electronic element.

In a contacting system for bipolar electronic circuit elements, more particularly semiconductor circuit elements, in which a circuit element body provided on at least one of two major surfaces located opposite each other with a thick, pressure-contact layer is held under pressure between two contact bodies interconnected by a housing, more particularly a soft glass housing. The risk of contact interruptions with frequent temperature variations in a range of from 0.degree. to 300.degree. C. is eliminated in that the thick pressure contact layers are subdivided into several contact blocks, preferably three or four, which are mutually separated and arranged beside each other.The surface of the contact blocks facing the contact bodies may be coated with a connection layer, which serves to establish during sealing into a soft glass envelope a connection by soldering or diffusion welding between the contact blocks and the contact bodies.

A semiconductor device includes: a first semiconductor-chip including a first electrode; a second semiconductor-chip including a second electrode; and a switch including a core element configured to contract and expand by a temperature change, a heat generation unit configured to heat the core element, a first metal element configured to cover the core element and connected to the first electrode, and a second metal element configured to cover the core element and connected to the second electrode, wherein, when the core element contracts, the first metal element and the second metal element come in contact with each other so that the first semiconductor-chip and the second semiconductor-chip are electrically connected with each other, and when the core element expands, the first metal element and the second metal element become in non-contact with each other so that the first semiconductor-chip and the second semiconductor-chip are electrically separated from each other.

An assembly component and a technique for assembling a chip package using the assembly component are described. This chip package includes a set of semiconductor dies that are arranged in a stack in a vertical direction, which are offset from each other in a horizontal direction to define a stepped terrace at one side of the vertical stack. Moreover, the chip package may be assembled using the assembly component. In particular, the assembly component may include a pair of stepped terraces that approximately mirror the stepped terrace of the chip package and which provide vertical position references for an assembly tool that positions the set of semiconductor dies in the vertical stack during assembly of the chip package.

At least one microspring has applied thereover a laminate structure to provide: mechanical protection during handling and wafer processing, a spring spacer layer, strengthening of the anchor between spring and substrate, provision of a gap stop during spring deflection, and moisture and contaminant protection. A fully-formed laminate structure may be applied over the microspring structure or a partly-formed laminate structure may be applied over the microspring structure then cured or hardened. The tip portion of the microspring may protrude through the laminate structure and be exposed for contact or may be buried within the contact structure. The laminate structure may remain in place in the final microspring structure or be removed in whole or in part. The laminate structure may be photolithographically patternable material, patterned and etched to remove some or all of the structure, forming for example additional structural elements such as a gap stop for the microspring.

Interconnect assemblies having resilient contact elements and methods for making these assemblies. In one aspect, the interconnect assembly includes a substrate and a resilient electrical contact element disposed on the substrate. A first portion of the resilient contact structure is disposed on the substrate and a second portion extends away from the substrate and is capable of moving from a first position to a second position under the application of a force. A stop structure is disposed on the surface of the substrate and on a surface of the first portion of the resilient contact structure. According to another aspect of the present invention, a beam portion of the resilient contact structure has a substantially triangular shape.

The circuitry of a programmable logic device (for example, an FPGA) includes a configurable logic portion and a configuration memory. The configuration memory stores configuration data that configures the configurable logic portion to realize a user-defined circuit. The configurable logic portion is disposed on a first die whereas the configuration memory is disposed on a second die. The second die is bonded to the first die in stacked relation. Each bit of configuration data passes from the second die to the first die through a pair of micropads. One micropad of the pair is disposed on the first die and the other micropad of the pair is disposed on the second die. When the first die and second die are brought together in face-to-face relation, the two micropads form an electrical connection through which the configuration data bit passes from the second die to the first die.
摘要:
A method of making a microelectronic assembly includes bonding a plurality of lead connection sections arranged in a row to contacts of a microelectronic element such as a semiconductor chip having contacts in rows at the periphery of the chip. The leads have terminal sections secured to a dielectric support structure, and horizontally curved sections between the terminal regions and bond regions. After bonding, the dielectric support structure is lifted upwardly relative to the chip, so as to bend the leads into a vertically-extensive orientation. Partial straightening of the original horizontal curvature allows each lead to stretch and accommodate the vertical movement.
