Flip Chip - Integrated In A Standard SMT Process

By Wilhelm Prinz von Hessen, Universal Instruments Corporation, Binghamton, NY

Abstract
This paper reviews the implementation of a flip chip product in a typical SMT production process. Several modifications in equip-ment, materials and processes were required. Flip Chip is not just another package on the board. A number of manufacturing related issues needed to be addressed. Fluxing and Underfill processes were the most obvious areas. Additional attention needed to be paid to yield and quality related issues. This paper reviews these manufacturing issues and discusses how they were solved for a specific product. The process development was performed in partnership with a customer and Universal’s process lab and was based on research results of the Advanced Process Lab.
