Abstract:
This disclosure provides a technique that prevents debonding at an interface between a functional device and a resin on reflow soldering in a functional device-mounted module requiring a hollow structure. Also disclosed is a functional device having a functional portion mounted on a substrate formed with predetermined wiring patterns, wherein the functional portion of the functional device is arranged in a receiving space, and the substrate is provided with a hole which communicates with the receiving space and a solder-introducing portion made of a metallic material compatible with solder. During solder reflowing, the functional device-mounted module is placed on a mounting substrate such that the solder-introducing portion of the functional device-mounted module contacts a solder paste, and solder is melted with heat. Water inside the receiving space is thus discharged, and solder is introduced into the hole due to surface tension, and the interior of the receiving space is sealed.

A densely packed electronic assemblage has a substrate media for supporting at least one heat generating component and means for reducing the temperature of the at least one heat generating component. A heat sink cooperates with the heat removing element for reducing heat of the at least one heat generating component by absorbing heat from the at least one heat generating component.

The invention provides an electronic apparatus having a metal core substrate including a metal plate, an insulating layer formed on the metal plate and a conductive layer formed on the insulating layer, and an electronic part, and to which the conductive layer and a terminal of the electronic part are connected. In the electronic apparatus, a member having a high thermal conductivity is arranged so as to be in contact with both of the metal plate and the electronic part. Accordingly, a heat radiating property of the electronic apparatus is increased.
Abstract:
In the formation of through wirings in a silicon substrate and so forth, there was a need for the development of a technology that would allow metal to be reliably filled particularly in the vicinity of openings of through holes and other fine holes. This invention provides a metal filling method and member with filled metal sections in which, in the inflow and filling of a plating solution into through holes 11 of a substrate 10 by immersing said substrate 10 in heated and melted conductive metal, filled metal sections are formed by preliminarily forming a metal layer 15 on the inner surface of one of the ends of through holes 11 of this substrate 10 as well as on substrate top surface 13 around those openings, removing substrate 10 on which inflow and filling of the plating solution into through holes 11 has been completed from the plating solution, and then cooling to solidify the plating solution that has been filled into the through holes.
Abstract:
An electronic component (202), such as a power transistor, is formed of a molded plastic package having top (206), bottom (204) and side (208) surfaces and electrical contacts. A lead frame (210) attaches to one of the contacts and wraps about the component (202) so as to provide heat dissipation capability from the bottom and top surfaces of the molded plastic package.
Abstract:
A brushless motor for a blower fan unit has a circuit structure constituted by a drive control circuit and a fuse member. The drive control circuit supplying drive current comprises a first circuit section for eliminating surges of electric power and a second circuit section for controlling magnetic field generated by the stator. The first and second circuit sections are three-dimensionally arranged with a predetermined space therebetween. The fuse member electrically connects the first and second circuit sections. An end portion of the fuse member is welded with the first circuit section, and the other end portion of the fuse member is soldered with the second circuit section. The fuse member cuts an electrical connection between the first and second circuit sections when a temperature of solder becomes higher than a predetermined temperature.

Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for filling high aspect ratio holes in electronic substrates that can be advantageously used for filling holes having aspect ratios larger than 5:1 are disclosed. In the apparatus, a filler plate and a vacuum plate are used in conjunction with a connection means such that a gap is formed between the two plates to accommodate an electronic substrate equipped with high aspect ratio via holes. The filler plate is equipped with an injection slot while the vacuum plate is equipped with a vacuum slot such that when a substrate is sandwiched therein, via holes can be evacuated of air and injected with a liquid simultaneously from a bottom side and a top side of the substrate. The present invention novel apparatus and method allows the filling of via holes that have small diameters, i.e., as small as 10 &mgr;m, and high aspect ratios, i.e., at least 5:1 to be filled with an electrically conductive material such as a solder or a conductive polymer such that vias or interconnects can be formed in electronic substrates. The present invention apparatus and method can be advantageously used in fabricating substrates for display panels by forming conductive vias and interconnects for placing a voltage potential on pixel display elements formed on the display panels.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for depositing solder paste on a printed wiring board has a stencil with a pattern of multiple apertures. The pattern aligns with a through-hole in the printed wiring board when the stencil is in physical contact with the printed wiring board. A squeegee arrangement applies solder paste through the multiple apertures in the stencil through the through-hole of the printed wiring board to the upper surface of the printed wiring board for securely mounting electronic components to the upper surface of the printed wiring board, for providing a thermal path for the heat sinks of the electronic components and for providing a low inductance electrical path to ground for the electrical components.
Abstract:
A plated-through hole via is substantially filled with solder rather than with traditional polymer to reduce printed circuit board failure due to outgassing from improperly cured polymer via fill. The solder via fill is in some embodiments eutectic or high-temperature solder, and in some further embodiments is capped at least one end with a barrier.
