HIGH PERFORMANCE SURFACE MOUNT ELECTRICAL INTERCONNECT

摘要

A surface mount electrical interconnect adapted to provide an interface between solder balls on a BGA device and a PCB. The electrical interconnect includes a socket substrate with a first surface, a second surface, and a plurality of openings sized and configured to receive the solder balls on the BGA device. A plurality of electrically conductive contact tabs are bonded to the first surface of the socket substrate so that contact tips on the contact tabs extend into the openings. The contact tips electrically couple with the BGA device when the solder balls are positioned in the openings. Vias are located in the openings that electrically couple the contact tabs to contact pads located proximate the second surface of the socket substrate. Solder balls are bonded to the contact pad that are adapted to electrically and mechanically couple the electrical interconnect to the PCB.
