Abstract:
A printed board suitable for having a LSI surface-mounted thereto and improves high-speed transfer characteristic while maintaining the circumference of a pad formed on the printed board. The pad is a connector pad consisting of a conductor pattern, and the area of the conductor pattern forming the pad is smaller than an area determined based on the circumference of the conductor pattern that forms the pad.
Abstract:
A method for a fiducial and pin one indicator that utilizes a single solder resist opening in a die mounting substrate to perform the combined functions of prior art fiducials and pin one indicators. Methods of fabricating a carrier substrate and fabricating a semiconductor device package using the combination pin one indicator and alignment fiducial are also described.
Abstract:
A multilayer circuit board includes a base layer, a conductive layer and a soldermask. The soldermask layer has two sets of openings. One of the openings are vent openings, that expose the base layer to provide ventilation so that gases may escape during processing. The second openings expose selective regions of a conductor layer. The multi-layer circuit board provides for less occurrences of delamination.
Abstract:
There is provided a mounting substrate on which a semiconductor chip is mounted using a flip chip bonding, having a plurality of connection pads which are connected to the semiconductor chip, and an insulation layer formed in such a manner as to cover the connection pads partially, wherein the insulation layer includes a first insulation layer which is formed in such a manner as to correspond to a center of the semiconductor chip and a second insulation layer which is formed in such a manner as to surround the first insulation layer, and wherein the plurality of connection pads include first connection pads which are partially covered by the first insulation layer and second connection pads which are partially covered by the second insulation layer.
Abstract:
A solderable device includes a substrate and a soldering pad overlying the substrate. A solder mask overlies the substrate and portions of the soldering pad. The solder mask has an opening that exposes a portion of the soldering pad. The opening has at least two edges that symmetrically overlie portions of the soldering pad.
Abstract:
A highly reliable printed circuit board which is capable of preventing a short circuit between traces from being caused by a solder bridge formed by excess solder. The printed circuit board has a solder resist covering copper foil traces formed on a substrate and the substrate, for insulation. The solder resist is formed such that exposed portions of the substrate between adjacent ones of the conductive traces each have a shape protruding in a direction of where the other printed circuit board is connected, with respect to exposed portions of the adjacent ones of the conductive traces, in a boundary between the connection part and a portion on which an insulating layer is formed.
Abstract:
A substrate for solder joint is provided, including: a core layer; at least one conductive trace formed on the core layer and having a circular terminal as a pad through which a plurality of hollow portions are formed and expose predetermined portions of the core layer underneath the pad, wherein the hollow portions are arranged at equal intervals and spaced from a periphery of the circular pad; and a solder mask for covering the conductive trace and having at least one opening bordered across each of the hollow portions of the pad, such that part of the pad and part of each of the predetermined portions of the core layer are exposed via the opening, to allow a conductive element to be bonded to the exposed part of the pad and the exposed part of the predetermined portions of the core layer in the opening of the solder mask.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is provided that pertains to resisting crack initiation and propagation in electrical interconnections between components and substrates in ball grid array microelectronic packages. A hybrid of dielectric defined and non-dielectric defined electrical interconnects reduces the potential for electrical interconnection failure without having to control the dielectric defined interconnect ratio of substrates. In addition selective orientation of the dielectric defined edge portion of the electrical interconnect away from the point where cracks initiate resists crack propagation and component failure.
Abstract:
A void-free circuit board and a semiconductor package having the same includes a protective layer covering and protecting an electrode pattern formed on an upper surface of a substrate. The protective layer is applied around a solder ball provided on the electrode pattern except on an immediate vicinity of the solder ball to form an opening. The semiconductor package also includes at least one gap compensation part comprising a protrusion that comes in contact with an underfill material injected to the opening before the electrode pattern. The protrusion has a thickness substantially the same as that of a portion of the electrode pattern exposed in the opening. This prevents voids with air captured therein due to non-uniform capillary action during injection of the underfill material.
Abstract:
A method for mounting through an anisotropic conductive film defined as an adhesive sheet an electronic component on a printed circuit board (flexible board) provided with a wiring pattern. The anisotropic conductive film is bonded to an area of the flexible board to be mounted with the electronic component in a state where air intervening between the anisotropic conductive film and the flexible board is heated. Since the air confined between the anisotropic conductive film and the flexible board reduces in volume upon cooled down, occurrence of voids, exposure of the wiring pattern, or the like is avoided. Consequently, reliability can be enhanced without complicating the mounting.
