Abstract: An electric contact using resin solder is connected to a printed circuit board without requiring soldering work. The circuit board has a conductor on a surface or in an intermediate layer thereof, and a through hole or a concaved part that penetrates the conductor. The electric contact includes a protruding part, which is inserted into the through hole or the concaved part, and a connecting part, which is connected to a conductor of a counterpart member such as a counterpart second circuit board. At least a part of the protruding part that connects to the conductor of the printed circuit board is made of a lead-free ultrahigh-conductive plastic resin composite. An electric connector includes the electric contact and an insulating housing, which holds the electric contact so that the protruding part and the connecting part thereof protrude outwardly.

Abstract: Spring contact elements are fabricated by depositing at least one layer of metallic material into openings defined in masking layers deposited on a surface of a substrate which may be an electronic component such as an active semiconductor device. Each spring contact element has a base end, a contact end, and a central body portion. The contact end is offset in the z-axis (at a different height) and in at least one of the x and y directions from the base end. In this manner a plurality of spring contact elements are fabricated in a prescribed spatial relationship with one another on the substrate. The spring contact elements make temporary (i.e., pressure) or permanent (e.g., joined by soldering or brazing or with a conductive adhesive) connections with terminals of another electronic component to effect electrical connections therebetween. In an exemplary application, the spring contact elements are disposed on a semiconductor devices resident on a semiconductor wafer so that temporary connections can-be made with the semiconductor devices to burn-in and/or test the semiconductor devices.

Abstract: An interconnection apparatus and a method of forming an interconnection apparatus. Contact structures are attached to or formed on a first substrate. The first substrate is attached to a second substrate, which is larger than the first substrate. Multiple such first substrates may be attached to the second substrate in order to create an array of contact structures. Each contact structure may be elongate and resilient and may comprise a core that is over coated with a material that imparts desired structural properties to the contact structure.

Abstract: Surface-mount, solder-down sockets permit electronic components such as semiconductor packages to be releasably mounted to a circuit board or other electronic component. In an embodiment, resilient contact structures extend through a support substrate, and solder-ball (or other suitable) contact structures are disposed along the bottom of the support substrate in electrical contact with the ends of the resilient contact structures. Composite interconnection elements are used as the resilient contact structures disposed atop the support substrate. In an embodiment intended to receive an LGA-type semiconductor package, pressure contact is made between the resilient contact structures and external connection points of the semiconductor package with a contact force which is generally normal to the top surface of the support substrate. In an embodiment intended to receive a BGA-type semiconductor package, pressure contact is made between the resilient contact structures and external connection points of the semiconductor package with a contact force which is generally parallel to the top surface of the support substrate.

Abstract: A method for increasing the manufacturing certainty of soldered connections between a ceramic carrier and a printed-circuit board. It includes the method step of applying a first decomposition-resistant metallization layer on a ceramic carrier and the subsequent imprinting onto the first metallizing layer of a second metallizing layer, improving the wetting performance. In this manner, it is possible to achieve an increase in the overall metallizing layer thickness in the edge area of a soldered connection, whose solder rise in turn makes possible an optical, fully-automatic monitoring of the soldered connection.

Abstract: A probe card assembly includes a probe card, a space transformer having resilient contact structures (probe elements) mounted directly to (i.e., without the need for additional connecting wires or the like) and extending from terminals on a surface thereof, and an interposer disposed between the space transformer and the probe card. The space transformer and interposer are nullstacked upnull so that the orientation of the space transformer, hence the orientation of the tips of the probe elements, can be adjusted without changing the orientation of the probe card. Suitable mechanisms for adjusting the orientation of the space transformer, and for determining what adjustments to make, are disclosed. The interposer has resilient contact structures extending from both the top and bottom surfaces thereof, and ensures that electrical connections are maintained between the space transformer and the probe card throughout the space transformer's range of adjustment, by virtue of the interposer's inherent compliance. Multiple die sites on a semiconductor wafer are readily probed using the disclosed techniques, and the probe elements can be arranged to optimize probing of an entire wafer. Composite interconnection elements having a relatively soft core overcoated by a relatively hard shell, as the resilient contact structures are described.

Abstract: Contact structures formed on an electronic component are useful for connecting the component to other electronic components. A contact tip structure can be formed on a sacrificial substrate, then combined with an interconnection element. A preferred contact structure includes some topography, generally in the form of certain raised features. These are formed by embossing depressed features into the sacrificial substrate upon which the contact tip structure is constructed. The contact tip structure can be optimized for making contact with another electrical component.
