    Abstract: Apparatus and method for soldering a first material to a second material uses a laser and involves applying solder paste over the first material, placing the second material on the solder paste in alignment with the first material to form a sample, and focusing a laser beam onto a predetermined location on the sample to segment the solder paste and form a solder joint between the first material and the second material. During the soldering, optical images of at least one region-of-interest in the solder paste adjacent the solder joint are captured. Formation of the solder joint is monitored by repeatedly calculating pixel value sums in the region-of-interest from the optical images to determine whether the solder paste in the region-of-interest has segmented. Control signals may be generated based on the pixel value sums and used to adjust at least one of the intensity and duration of the laser beam.

    Abstract: The bonding pads (18) of a semiconductor chip (12) each may be provided with a solder bump (36) by first screen printing a pattern of solder paste (36) on a heat-resistant, non-wettable surface (24). The chip (12) is then placed on the surface (24) so each bonding pad (18) contacts a portion of the solder paste pattern (36). The solder paste is then reflowed, yielding molten solder that bonds to the bonding pads (18) of the chip, but not to the surface (24). After reflow, the chip, with its now-bumped pads, is removed from the surface for subsequent soldering to a wettable substrate.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for non-destructively detecting pressure contact open types of solder connections transmits acoustic emissions through an electronic component and the carrier upon which the electronic component is mounted by one or more solder connections. Emissions which are transmitted through the solder connections and which will interact with acoustic emissions generated if pressure contact opens are present are analyzed by comparison with the signal which is used to cause emissions to detect the presence of pressure contact opens by comparison of one or more of harmonics, energy, count, voltage, duration, rise time and time delay. A housing is preferably used to position a pair of transducers at respective locations which have solder connections topologically intervening therebetween. The testing process can thus be automated for screening assembled devices for the presence of pressure contact opens.

    Abstract: A bonding head for an ultrasonic bonding machine comprises a wedge operatively associated with an ultrasound transducer by means of which an electrically conducting wire can be pressed against a contact surface of an electrical or electronic component and bonded thereto by ultrasonic excitation of the wedge. A wire clamp is located adjacent to and ahead of the wedge and can be moved back and forth by drive means in the direction of the wire being fed to the wedge. The wedge can be moved up and down together with the wire clamp and its drive means in a direction substnatially perpendicular to the contact surface. The bonding head as a whole is also disposed so that it can be swung about an axis perpendicular to the contact surface. The drive means for wire clamp comprises a translational drive which can move the wire clamp exactly parallel to the direction of the wire being fed to the wedge.

    Abstract: A low-temperature, nondestructive method of electrochemical reduction is provided for restoring solderability of oxidized electronic component leads and solderable portions of printed wiring boards. The component or circuit board is immersed in an electrolyte solution. The electrolyte is chosen to be non-reactive with the circuit board and component materials. In one embodiment, the electrolyte comprises a benign borate buffer solution. The solderable portion of the component or circuit board is connected to the cathode of an electric power source to form a first electrode. A second, inert electrode is connected to the anode of the current source and immersed in the electrolyte. Current passing between the electrodes electrochemically reduces the metallic oxides on the solderable portions of the component or circuit board. In a second embodiment, the electrolyte comprises an active reducing agent. When the solderable portion of the component or circuit board is immersed in the reducing agent, localized galvanic action causes reduction of any metallic oxides without connection to an external power source. This is particularly useful for restoring solderability of printed wiring boards having non-interconnected circuitry. Reduction of the oxides to their metallic form restores and ensures solderability of the solderable portions of the electronic component or printed wiring board.
