Abstract: Arrays of objects on a substrate having void-free underfill as well as methods and systems of forming the same include forming a void-free layer of underfill material between a substrate and an array of multiple objects positioned on the substrate. The void-free layer of underfill material is cured to form a protective cured underfill layer that provides structural support to connections between the objects and the substrate.

Abstract: Precast curable thermal interface adhesives facilitating the easy and repeatable separation and remaining of electronic components at thermal interfaces thereof, and a method for implementing the foregoing repeatable separation and remating at the thermal interfaces of components through the use of such adhesives.

Abstract: Techniques provide improved thermal interface material application in an assembly associated with an integrated circuit package. For example, an apparatus comprises an integrated circuit module, a printed circuit board, and a heat transfer device. The integrated circuit module is mounted on a first surface of the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board has at least one thermal interface material application via formed therein in alignment with the integrated circuit module. The heat transfer device is mounted on a second surface of the printed circuit board and is thermally coupled to the integrated circuit module. The second surface of the printed circuit board is opposite to the first surface of the printed circuit board.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for constructing balanced semiconductor chip package structures that minimize bowing, in-plane strain and/or other thermally induced mechanical strains that may arise during thermal cycling, to thus prevent structural damage to chip package structures.

Abstract: The details of a printed wiring board (PWB) sub-assembly and the method of producing the same are described. The sub-assembly comprises a printed circuit board electrically joined through a plurality of connections to one or more area array devices, such as modules or printed wiring boards. The sub-assembly can serve as a part of an original assembly. The sub-assembly can function as an after market item that can be readily substituted as a replacement for a failed component wherein the dimensional space between the printed circuit board and one or both of the area array devices must provide sufficient clearance for surface mounted devices.

Abstract: A method and structure for electrically and mechanically interconnecting an array of printed circuit board contacts to an array of module contacts with a plurality of deformable resilient electrical conductors with two ends. Each of the conductor ends are electrically connected to one of the contact arrays. A portion of the conductor may deform longitudinally and laterally responsive to movement of the printed circuit board relative to the module responsive to heating and cooling cycles and mechanical vibrations, while maintaining the electrical connection of the contact arrays. An interposer with apertures extending through the interposer carries the conductors in the apertures and is used to align the conductors with the contacts. A method for excluding a rigid adhesive means from a portion of the resilient conductor is also taught.

Abstract: Wire bond packages which mount encapsulated semiconductor chips, such as plastic ball grid array (PBGA) packages providing for the mounting of so-called flip-chips. The chips are overlaid with a heat spreading thermally-conductive cap of a mesh-like material which is interstitially the filled with an adhesive to prevent delamination caused by mismatches in the coefficients of thermal expansion, which result in contractions which cause the entire package arrangement to warp, leading to delamination between an encapsulant and cap and resulting in failure of connect joints and the ball grid arrays.
