  • Patent number: 7781900
    Abstract: One aspect of the invention relates to a semiconductor device including a housing and a semiconductor chip partly embedded in a plastic housing composition. Another aspect relates to a method for producing the same. The plastic housing composition has at least one host component having a softening temperature and an incorporated component having a phase change temperature. In this case, the softening temperature of the host component is greater than the phase change temperature of the incorporated component.

  • Patent number: 7727815
    Abstract: A method for forming a high thermal conductivity heat sink to IC package interface is disclosed. The method uses reactive getter materials added to a two phase solder system having a phase change temperature that is about the normal operating temperature range of the IC, to bind absorbed and dissolved oxygen in the two phase solder interface material at or near the air to solder surface. Over time this chemical binding action results in an oxide layer at the air to solder surface that slows the rate of oxygen absorption into the solder interface material, and thus reduces the harmful oxidation of the solder to IC package interface and the solder to heat sink interface.

  • Patent number: 7521799
    Abstract: Even when a stiffener is omitted, the semiconductor device which can prevent the generation of twist and distortion of a wiring substrate is obtained. As for a semiconductor device which has a wiring substrate, a semiconductor chip by which the flip chip bond was made to the wiring substrate, and a heat spreader adhered to the back surface of the semiconductor chip, and which omitted the stiffener for reinforcing a wiring substrate and maintaining the surface smoothness of a heat spreader, a wiring substrate has a plurality of insulating substrates in which a through hole whose diameter differs, respectively was formed, and each insulating substrate contains a glass cloth.

  • Patent number: 7132746
    Abstract: A process and electronic assembly for conducting heat from a semiconductor circuit device mounted to a substrate. The substrate is supported by a housing member equipped with a heat-conductive member. A surface of the device opposite the substrate is bonded to the heat-conductive member with a solder joint formed of indium and optionally one or more alloying constituents that increase the melting temperature of the solder joint above that of indium. The housing member, substrate, and device are assembled so that an indium-containing solder material is present between the heat-conductive member and the surface of the device opposite the substrate. The solder material is then reflowed to form the solder joint. The alloying constituent(s) are preferably introduced into the solder joint during reflow.

  • Patent number: 7013555
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of providing an integral thermal interface on an interface surface of a heat dissipation device, such as a heat sink. In accordance with the present invention, the phase change material is applied directly onto the interface surface of the heat sink to form an integral interface layer directly on the heat sink during the manufacturing process. This process includes the steps of providing a heat dissipating device having an interface surface, liquefying the phase change material at a controlled temperature so as to decrease the material viscosity to a flowable form, applying the liquefied phase change material directly onto the mating surface of the heat dissipating device either by directly dispensing the material, screen printing or stencil printing and cooling the material causing it to cure on the surface of the heat dissipating device.
