IMAPS Academy Course - THE EVOLUTION OF FLIP CHIP PACKAGE TECHNOLOGY

Cost: $169 IMAPS Member, $229 Non-member, $49 IMAPS Student Member 

Instructor: Mark Gerber

Format: 4 Chapters, ~30-minute Course Videos

Course Description:

This PDC course will provide a historical overview and background on the evolution of flip chip packaging as well as short market perspective on this platform. Mobile, Infrastructure, Automotive, High Reliability, Medical and High-Performance Network and Computing all rely on Flip Chip technology to enable their silicon solutions. Although the use of new technologies such as Fan-Out hold promise for certain applications, flip chip advancements continue to challenge many new technology competitors from a price and reliability perspective and may end up driving hybrid approaches. Interconnect structure, process flows, materials and package integration process methods for evolving Flip Chip applications will be discussed in detail. Understanding the trade-offs between the different bump structures and package platforms is key in determining the silicon device layout and the type of design rules that can be leveraged for new products. As part of this course, the assembly process details will be discussed and will include Mass Reflow, Thermo-Compression Non-Conductive Paste (TCNCP) bonding and Laser Assisted Bonding. Reliability aspects such as IMC formations and ways to address will also be covered as a key consideration for Interconnect decisions.
