  • Patent number: 7122087
    Abstract: There is a method of manufacturing an RFID, in which a semiconductor chip with a memory is bonded to an antenna, so that the information recorded in the memory can be transmitted through the antenna. In the RFID, a PET film, a PEN film, or a sheet of paper is used as the base material of the antenna. The method includes: aligning the semiconductor chip with gold bumps relative to the antenna, in which a metal foil formed of an aluminum or an aluminum alloy is adhered to the base material, including a polyethylene terephthalate or a polyethylene naphthalate; pressing the semiconductor chip to the antenna; and applying ultrasonic waves under an ambient temperature lower than the glass transition temperature of the polyethylene terephthalate or the polyethylene naphthalate, to thereby bond the gold bumps and the metal foil. Thus, the method suppresses the deformation of the antenna.

  • Publication number: 20050230791
    Abstract: When an RFID-tag is formed by joining a semiconductor chip (RFID chip) to an antenna consisting of a rolled metal foil or the like using ultrasonic waves, the pressure impressed to the semiconductor chip is suppressed to avoid the damage of the semiconductor chip. For this purpose, the present invention provides an RFID-tag 1 wherein gold bumps are joined to the metal foil by pressing the gold bumps formed on the semiconductor chip against an antenna member, and impressing ultrasonic waves; and the RFID-tag wherein a matte surface having a low glossiness is formed on the metal foil, or a surface having shallow rolling streaks is formed on the metal foil, and gold bumps are joined to the surface.

  • Publication number: 20050173541
    Abstract: A paper-like RFID tag is fabricated by bonding bumps of an RFID chip to an antenna to connect the chip to the antenna, the antenna being formed by a metal foil bonded onto a base film or a base tape, providing a protecting material around the RFID chip so that an upper surface becomes higher than that of the RFID chip, to constitute an RFID thread, and inlaying the RFID thread in between first and second paper layers to afford a paper-like structure. The thickness of the paper-like RFID tag fabricated as above is 0.1 mm or less. Further, the paper-like RFID tag is of high quality and has a surface smoothness almost equal to that of the ordinary type of paper, permitting a long-distance communication.
