ANISOTROPIC CONDUCTIVE FILM

摘要

The anisotropic conductive film (ACF) (1) comprises a sheet-like insulating adhesive film (2) and plural rows of electrically conductive particles (3). Any one electrically conductive particle (3a) is disposed equidistant from 6 surrounding adjacent electrically conductive particles (3b-3g). This particular configuration provides high density of electrically conductive particles (3) and a large current carrying capacity. The direction of each row of the electrically conductive particles (3) is slanted at a predetermined angle with respect to the normal to one side of the ACF (1) or the sides of the electrodes to be interconnected. This minimizes the number of the electrically conductive particles (3) on the sides of the electrodes and thus maintains large current carrying capacity.
