SHENMAO Technology to Present on No Clean Flux in Fine-pitch Flip Chip Interconnect at IWLPC 2016
October 11, 2016 | SHENMAO America Inc.Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
For several years, an approach to use fine-pitch flip chip package (<150um) with copper pillar/ micro-bump is for the realization of 2.5D/3D packages of higher density and performance enhancement. Generally, flux is widely used to clean the surfaces to be soldered for good wetting and form reliable joints. The upcoming concerns about fluxes are clean-ability for fine-pitch package, voiding and compatibility with underfill materials. There is a tradeoff between flux characteristics and soldering performance.
At the upcoming 13th International Wafer Level Packaging Conference (IWLPC), SHENMAO Technology Inc. will present a paper on a formulated no clean flux for fine-pitch flip chip package of copper pillar/micro-bump interconnect. This paper will discuss in details about the applicability of a new no clean flux in fine-pitch flip chip interconnect from the point of view of flux formulations, including flux activity for wetting performance, rheological characterization for the study of behaviors during reflow process and the evaluation of compatibility with underfill.
Authored by Hsiang-Chuan Chen, Ya-Ching Chuang, Chia-Hao Chang, and Watson Tseng, the paper will be presented during the Interactive Presentations session on October 18, 10:00 am to 1:30 pm.

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
Trouble in Your Tank: Supporting IC Substrates and Advanced Packaging, Part 5
03/19/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankDirect metallization systems based on conductive graphite or carbon dispersion are quickly gaining acceptance worldwide. Indeed, the environmental and productivity gains one can achieve with these processes are outstanding. In today’s highly competitive and litigious environment, direct metallization reduces costs associated with compliance, waste treatment, and legal issues related to chemical exposure. What makes these processes leaders in the direct metallization space?
