Abstract:
A mounting assembly for a multiple chip module (13) or other circuit module, which includes a board (11) having a surface including an array of board contacts (22) such as a printed wiring board in a computer system. A circuit module, such as multiple chip module (13), having a first surface and a second surface is included. The circuit module includes an array of circuit contacts (23) on the first surface of the module. An interposer (12) between the board (11) and the first surface of the circuit module, includes conductors (21) between the circuit contacts in the array of circuit contacts (23) on the circuit module and board contacts in the array of board contacts (22) on the board. A thermal bridge member (15) contacts the second surface of the circuit module.
Abstract:
First and second bumps (9) electrically connected at first and second positions (62, 63) along a conductive run (52) borne by a flexible substrate (10) are respectively oriented for contact with a pad (8) of a die (2) under test and a pad (20) of a tester structure (1). Second (66, 98) and third (68, 100) conductive regions are electrically connected respectively to the power (Vcc) and ground (Vss) terminals of a power source and an electrical device. The second and third regions are spaced from a first conductive region (68, 91) to filter high-frequency noise components from power and ground potentials provided by the power source.
Abstract:
First (46) and second (62, 63) bumps electrically connected at first and second positions along a conductive run (52) borne by a flexible substrate (10) are respectively oriented for contact with a pad (8) of a die under test (2) and a pad (88, 89) of a tester. A probe frame (32) is bonded to the substrate between connector frames (34) bonded at opposite ends of the substrate (10). Alternatively, a pair of bumps (46, and 62, 63) exposed on the same surface of a flexible substrate (10) are electrically connected at different positions along on conductive run (52). One of the bumps (46) is oriented for contact with a pad (8) of a die under test (2), and the other (62, 63) is in contact with a pad (88, 89) on a surface of a printed circuit board (5) directed away from the die (2). The pad (88, 89) of the printed circuit board (5) is provided for electrical connection to a tester.
