Abstract

Flip chip packaging faces two primary bonding-process obstacles: flux use and geometry mismatch between die and substrate pad pitch. These obstacles motivated the development of a fluxless bonding method called solid-liquid mterdiffusion bonding by compressive force (SLICF). SLICF utilizes a mechanical force to form the bond through solidliquid interdiffusion with a joint-in-via (JIV) architecture for flip chip packaging. SLICF bonding (also known as Thermomiechanical (TM) bonding) forms an instantaneous bond and eliminates the need for reflow infrastructure. Both Au-PbSn and Au-SAC interconnect systems were studied for the SLICF bonding on the JIV architecture at a 130 μm pitch. The morphologies of Au-PbSn and Au-SAC in solid-liquid interdiffusion were studied with their kinetics measured by the Au consumption rate. The SLIFC bonds for Au-PbSn and Au-SAC were compared and assessed by mechanical shear tests and thermomechanical stresses. Au with PbSn was found to perform marginally better due to its joint geometry and slower kinetics.
