Abstract:
A Micro SMDxt package is provided that configured for mounting to a circuit board. The SMDxt package includes a silicon-based IC having an array of contact pads on one side of thereof, and a die electrically attached to the silicon-based IC. A plurality of solder balls is included, each of which has a polymeric core surrounded by a metallic shell that in turn is surrounded by a layer of solder material. Further, each solder ball is positioned in contact with a corresponding contact pad of the package. An intertwined intermetallic fusion layer is formed through the fusion between material components of the contact pads and the solder material, via heat treatment. The intermetallic fusion extends between and from an outer surface of the metallic shell of each solder to an outer surface of a corresponding contact pad to form a high strength intermetallic solder joint therebetween.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses structures and manufacturing processes of an ACF of improved resolution and reliability of electrical connection using a non-random array of microcavities of predetermined configuration, shape and dimension. The manufacturing process includes the steps of (i) fluidic filling of conductive particles onto a substrate or carrier web comprising a predetermined array of microcavities, or (ii) selective metallization of the array followed by filling the array with a filler material and a second selective metallization on the filled microcavity array. The thus prepared filled conductive microcavity array is then over-coated or laminated with an adhesive film.

Abstract:
An electrically conductive adhesive includes a resin component, a photoinitiator, and metal-coated polymer beads. The beads have an average diameter and a very narrow size distribution around the average diameter. The adhesive is applied between a read/write head and a suspension to attach the two, and the adhesive is cured by exposure to an illumination and/or heat. A pad spacer is included between the read/write head and the suspension to define a spacing and parallelism therebetween. The beads in the adhesive can form one or more layers between the read/write head and the suspension or can be disordered. The metal coating of the beads provide electrical conductivity between the read/write head and the suspension.
