FLIP CHIP MOUNTING TECHNIQUE

摘要

The invention provides processes for bonding a flip chip (1) to a substrate (3) in a manner that maximizes reliability of the bonding operation. Electrically conductive polymer bumps (2) are formed on bond pads (4) of a flip chip (1) and the flip chip polymer bumps (2) are at least partially hardened. Electrically conductive polymer bumps (8) are formed on bond pads (4) of a substrate, and a layer of electrically insulating adhesive paste (5) is then applied on the substrate (3), covering the substrate polymer bumps (8) with the adhesive (5). The bond pads (6) of the flip chip () are then aligned with the bond pads (4) of the substrate (3) and the at least partially hardened flip chip polymer bumps (2) are then pushed through the substrate adhesive (5) and at least partially into the substrate polymer bumps (8). In a further method, electrically conductive polymer bumps (2) are formed on bond pads (6) of a flip chip (1) and the flip chip polymer bumps (2) are at least partially hardened. A layer of electrically insulating adhesive paste (5) is formed on a substrate having bond pads (4), covering the bond pads (4) with the adhesive (5). The bond pads (6) of the flip chip (1) are aligned with the bond pads (4) of the substrate (3), and then the at least partially hardened flip chip polymer bumps (2) are pushed through the substrate adhesive (5) with pressure sufficient for the flip chip polymer bumps (2) to directly contact and deform the substrate bond pads (4).
