  • Publication number: 20150116970
    Abstract: A mounting structure includes a bonding material (106) that bonds second electrodes (104) of a circuit board (105) and bumps (103) of a semiconductor package (101), the bonding material (106) being surrounded by a first reinforcing resin (107). Moreover, a portion between the outer periphery of the semiconductor package (101) and the circuit board (105) is covered with a second reinforcing resin (108). Even if the bonding material (106) is a solder material having a lower melting point than a conventional bonding material, high drop resistance is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20140158751
    Abstract: A wiring board on which an electronic component is to be mounted includes a resist having an opening exposing a joint face which is part of the surface of a wiring layer and to which a terminal of the electronic component is to be joined. In the placing step, the electronic component is placed on the wiring board such that the terminal covers the opening entirely and contacts the solder paste applied onto the joint face. Next, the solder paste applied onto the joint face is heated to melt solder and soften thermosetting resin. This allows the solder to gather in a first space within the opening closed with the wiring layer and the electronic component, while allowing the thermosetting resin to gather in a second space formed between a top side of the resist and a lateral side of the electronic component.

  • Publication number: 20140049930
    Abstract: In a case where a first mounted substrate to which a semiconductor element is bounded by solder is mounted on a second substrate, connection strength becomes low, when the first mounted substrate is bonded to the second substrate by using a solder having a low melting point. A mounted structure, in which a first mounted substrate on which a semiconductor element is bonded by using a first solder having a melting point of 217° C. or more, is mounted on a second substrate, includes plural bonding parts bonding the first mounted substrate to the second substrate; and a reinforcing member formed around the bonding part. Each of the bonding parts contains a second solder having a melting point, that is lower than the melting point of the first solder, and a space exists, in which the reinforcing members do not exist, between the bonding parts neighboring each other.
