Abstract:
A substrate, and a semiconductor die package formed therefrom, are disclosed which include a distributed plating pattern for reducing mechanical stress on the semiconductor die. The substrate according to embodiments of the invention may include traces and contact pads plated in a double image plating process. Additionally, the substrate may include dummy plating areas including plating material. The plated vias and/or traces and the plating material within the dummy plating areas provide a plating pattern which is evenly distributed across the surface of the substrate. The even distribution of the plating pattern prevents peaks and valleys in the finished substrate.

Vorrichtung mit einem ersten Bauteil (5) mit einer ersten Oberfläche (6), einem zweiten Bauteil (8) mit einer zweiten Oberfläche (9) und einer Verbindungsschicht (7) zwischen der ersten Oberfläche (6) des ersten Bauteils (5) und der zweiten Oberfläche (9) des zweiten Bauteils (8), wobei die Verbindungsschicht (7) einen elektrisch isolierenden Klebstoff umfasst und ein elektrisch leitender Kontakt zwischen der ersten Oberfläche (6) des ersten Bauteils (5) und der zweiten Oberfläche (9) des zweiten Bauteils (8) besteht.
Abstract:
Bei einem elektrischen Verbindungselement (1) umfassend einen elektrischen Leiter (2) und eine elektrisch leitfähige Beschichtung (3), wird, um ein Verbindungselement zu schaffen, welches einerseits leicht verarbeitbar ist, eine hohe Haftkraft ermöglicht und dabei nur geringe Beschichtungsstärken benötigt, vorgeschlagen, dass die Oberfläche des elektrischen Leiters (2) zumindest bereichsweise mit einer Strukturierung und/oder rauen Oberfläche (5) ausgebildet ist.
Abstract:
The control device (1) is equipped with an electrical component (2) in which heat is generated. Said heat is dissipated over an elongated metal part (10) whose one face (12) is soldered to the component (2). The face (12) oriented toward the component (2) has a shape that increases the size of its surface. The shape is outwardly arched and can be provided with a ribbing.
Abstract:
Surface mount device packages with increased mounting strength and a method therefor. In one embodiment, an electronic device is made up of a device package and one or more electrically conductive terminals. For surface mounting, the device terminals are each provided with a mounting surface which is bonded using a conductive adhesive to a corresponding contact pad on a circuit board. The terminals are further provided with at least one groove across the mounting surface. When conductive adhesive is used to mount the device on a circuit board, this groove serves to form the conductive adhesive into a ridge or "dam" over the contact pad. This provides increased mounting strength which may eliminate the need for additional adhesive material to provide side reinforcement of the device, and thereby allow an increase in the packaging density of devices on the circuit board.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an electrical component (CO) as well as a device (DEV) comprising such an electrical component (CO) and an electric circuit module (MO). A ground plane (4) of the component (CO) and a ground plane (2) of the circuit module (MO) are bought into contact via projections (4'') provided on the ground plane (4) of the component (CO) and/or on the ground plane of the circuit module (MO). The provision of the projections (4'') and the recesses (4') therebetween provide heat sinks between the projections (4'') when they are soldered to the ground plane (2) of the circuit module (MO). Through-holes (8') and additional non-ground conductors (2') can be provided between pads (14) of the ground plane (2) of the circuit module (MO) allowing an efficient use of the available space. The invention is particularly useful when a patch antenna needing a large ground plane is connected to a multilayer circuit board. Another embodiment of the invention comprises a plurality of spacer elements which are arranged between the ground planes (2, 4) of the circuit module (MO) and of the component (CO), such that the ground planes (2, 4) can be kept flat. This allows a design of the configuration of the ground plane of the circuit module (MO) independently from a configuration of the component (CO).
Abstract:
Polymeric subcomposites (1) of a circuit board are interconnected by metallic dendrites (9) on electrical contact pads (3) whereby electrical contact pads (3) of one or the subcomposites (1) are larger widthwise than electrical contact pads (3) of the other subcomposite (1).
