Abstract:
Aflip-chip package for implementing a fine solder ball, and a flip-chip packaging method using the same. The flip-chip package includes a first wafer (100) having a first electrode and a first under bump metal (111,112) (UBM) formed on the first electrode and electrically connected to the first electrode; and second wafer (200) opposing the first wafer and having a second electrode located in a position corresponding to the first electrode, and a second UBM (211,212) formed of the second electrode and electrically connected to the second electrode. The first wafer (100) has a depression formed on one or more areas adjacent to the first UBM (111,112), which depression partly receives a solder ball (133a,134a) that connects the first (111,112) and the second UBMs (211,212) upon flip-chip bonding of the first (100) and second (200) wafers. Since the UBM is formed as an embossing pattern, a fine solder ball can be implemented. Additionally, the reliability of the package can be improved.
Abstract:
An electrical connection box for a vehicle has a low-voltage bus bar (10) and a high voltage bus bar (11), received in groove structures (12b; 12d) of a first insulation plate (12). Each groove structure is defined by a base wall surface on which the bus bar is disposed and a pair of opposed upstanding side wall surfaces. The first insulation plate has a downward recess (12c) or through-hole between the groove structures. A second insulation plate (22) superimposed on the first plate (12) has a downward projection (22a) received in the recess (12c) or through-hole and extending to a lower end which is below the base wall surfaces of the groove structures. The structure inhibits leak currents between the bus bars.

Abstract:
An electrical connection box for use in a vehicle has bus bars (10, 11) in a casing with upstanding connection tabs (10a, 11a) which are alongside and spaced from each other.

The resin material provides a recess (15) located between the tabs (10a, 11a) and the housing of said connector (20) has a partition wall (22) of insulating material which lies between the terminals (7, 8) and extends into the recess (15), to prevent leak current between the terminals.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method for producing electronic modules with ball connector (7) or integrated preforms capable of being soldered on a printed circuit (3) and a device for implementing said method. The invention concerns a method for producing electronic modules in the form of ball housings combining a ball grid array (7) or geometrically identical preforms for interconnecting or shielding and surface-mounted components (2) on the same surface of a substrate (1), thereby enabling said module to be directly connectable by soldering on a printed circuit (3). The balls (7) and the components (2) are transferred in one single step onto the substrate (1) by means of a gripping device adapted to the topography of the module to be produced.
Abstract:
A method for forming a self-limiting, silicon based interconnect for making temporary electrical contact with bond pads on a semiconductor die is provided. The interconnect includes a silicon substrate having an array of contact members adapted to contact the bond pads on the die for test purposes (e.g., burn-in testing). The interconnect is fabricated by: forming the contact members on the substrate; forming a conductive layer on the tip of the contact members; and then forming conductive traces to the conductive layer. The conductive layer is formed by depositing a silicon containing layer (e.g., polysilicon, amorphous silicon) and a metal layer (e.g., titanium, tungsten, platinum) on the substrate and contact members. These layers are reacted to form a silicide. The unreacted metal and silicon containing layer are then etched selective to the conductive layer which remains on the tip of the contact members. Conductive traces are then formed in contact with the conductive layer using a suitable metallization process. Bond wires are attached to the conductive traces and may be attached to external test circuitry. Alternately, another conductive path such as external contacts (e.g., slide contacts) may provide a conductive path between the conductive traces and external circuitry. The conductive layer, conductive traces and bond wires provide a low resistivity conductive path from the tips of the contact members to external test circuitry.
