Patent number: 6544638Abstract: An electronic chip package is provided having a laminated substrate. The laminated substrate includes at least one conductive layer and at least one dielectric layer which is bonded to the conductive layer. The dielectric layer has a glass transition temperature Tg greater than 200° C. and a volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of ≦75 ppm/° C. A semiconductor device is electrically attached to the laminated substrate.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2001Date of Patent: April 8, 2003Assignee: Gore Enterprise Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Paul J. Fischer, Joseph E. Korleski

Patent number: 6344371Abstract: A dimensionally stable core for use in high density chip packages is provided. The stable core is a metal core, preferably copper, having clearances formed therein. Dielectric layers are provided concurrently on top and bottom surfaces of the metal core. Metal cap layers are provided concurrently on top surfaces of the dielectric layers. Blind or through vias are then drilled through the metal cap layers and extend into the dielectric layers and clearances formed in the metal core. If an isolated metal core is provided then the vias do not extend through the clearances in the copper core. The stable core reduces material movement of the substrate and achieves uniform shrinkage from substrate to substrate during lamination processing of the chip packages. This allows each substrate to perform the same. Additionally, a plurality of chip packages having the dimensionally stable core can be bonded together to obtain a high density chip package.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 1998Date of Patent: February 5, 2002Assignee: W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc.Inventors: Paul J. Fischer, Robin E. Gorrell, Mark F. Sylvester

Patent number: 6313411Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for performing reliability screening on semi-conductor wafers and particularly to a highly planar burn in apparatus and method for uses including wafer level burn-in (WLBI), diced die burn-in (DDBI), and packaged die burn-in (PDBI). The burn-in system includes a burn-in substrate with a planar base, a temporary Z-axis connecting member, and a Z-axis wafer level contact sheet electrically coupled to one another for screening wafers, diced die, and packaged electronic components, their assembly and use.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1997Date of Patent: November 6, 2001Assignee: W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc.Inventor: John J. Budnaitis
