Problem statement
Lack of understanding of the assembly processes and
application environments of all potential end-users (vs
targeted end-users) to develop the reliability test
methodology for new package/materials development
Current situation
- Test plan only focus on standard test methodology and comply to
customer requirements
- Current test standards may not capture the reliability risk in the new
package, or may over stress the new package.
- Field failures do not really feedback to test plan
- For new materials/package development, test plan completeness is
always questionable.
- Little effort for the industry to come out with new test standard
Key Challenge
Industrial Collaboration on early learning of failure mode and
application condition
• Information is largely shared between supplier and customer under
NDA.
• No common platform for early learning sharing.
• The boundary between sensitive data and data which can be shared
is not clearly defined.
• Lack of Understanding on the impact of assembly process condition
on packaging reliability.
Recommendation
• Develop a methodology (highlighting best practice, e.g.
test to fail, FMEAs) for qualifying new packaging
technology
• Validate the methodology by reviewing issues and
failure modes from a few recent packaging technologies
developed in past ten years (e.g. copper wire bonding,
wirebonded stack die, Package on Package)
• Apply the methodology to selected new technologies for
effectiveness and completeness
Test to Failure for Packaging Development
• Problem:
– In the product development phase of a project, the purpose of validation
testing is to prove product designs meet an acceptable minimum reliability
level; not to conduct a full-scale reliability/life test.
– The result is a demonstration ‘test to pass’ in which failures are hoped to be
avoided.
• Test to Failure and Its Benefits
– New Packages/Products are tested beyond minimum specification levels. Depending on
the new design or materials involved, the relevant test to failure experiment can be
selected from power cycle, thermal cycling or shock, high temp/low temp storage and
etc.
– Endurance type testing exposes the weakest link in the product reliability
– Failure modes can be investigated and identified to improve future designs
– Statistical distributions can be tracked and compared between products
– Historical data can be used to design experiments for new products
– Data can be used to correlate with validation test results and vehicle life cycle in various
environments (under hood, in cabin, etc. )

Environment Scan and Challenges
• Environment scan:
– Higher density; thinner packages
– Smaller interconnects – FLI (First Level Interconnect) and SLI (second
level interconnect)
– Complex multichip package (WLP &FCCSP/BGA etc) that leads to longer
assembly process
– Increasing use of mold for WLP and PLP
• Challenges: Increasing reliability issues in these areas
– Substrate/Mold/CUF outgassing (moisture and volatiles)
– Laminates delamination and poor adhesion of MUF and CUF
– Warpage due to high CTE polymer
– Limited liquid mold supplier with compatible mold properties that meets
packaging needs (eg: <50um mold cap, low cost, <25um gap)
– Filler size used in DAF polymer become substantial geometry compared
to interconnect size.
Top Priorities & Recommendation
Polymer Outgassing/HydrophillicBehavior
Laminates and MUF/CUF Adhesion Improvement
Next Gen Encapsulant(CUF/MUF)
Polymer Outgassing/Hydrophillic Behavior
• Re-establish the mechanism of outgassing & hydrophillic behavior of
packaging material: substrate (core, ABF, SR, prepreg), mold, cuf
and etc.
• Reformulate resin to give better resilient to outgassing – nano pores
formation during curing (see pix below)
• Define qualification method for outgassing – gravimetric alone is not
enough as stress is a function of pressure, specific volume and
temperature.

UF Crack

Second level solder
splashed during the
blistering event
Laminates and MUF/CUF Adhesion Improvement
• Define better surface treatment (adhesion promoter, plasma,
blasting, silane and etc).
– Significant process optimization needed to enhance adhesion – need more robust
method
– Consistency of surface treatment – coverage and repeatability (wettability –
adhesion strength)
– Surface treatment need to sustain across exposure assembly environment
• Develop test methods and analytical techniques
– Lab scale vs actual sample
– Standard test procedure for material suppliers – wetting angle and standard test
31
Next Gen - Encapsulant (CUF/MUF)
• Low cost and smaller filler size encapsulant - (<50um
mold cap)
• Compatible to existing molding platform – Wafer to Panel
• New encapsulant formulation that exhibits:
– Good flowability, shear curing behavior, low volatile voids that meets
current molding design.
– Compatible CTE to address warpage concern
– Plating Compatibility
– Standard chemical shrinkage quantification
32
Panel Size Processing
33
Wafer Form Panel Form
Problem Statement
• Compare with wafer form manufacturing, manufacturing cost
should be lower with standardization of panel size.
• Based on the package quantity in wafer form or panel form, for
panel form it might be increasing package quantity especially large
package size.
• Therefore packaging manufacturing cost of panel form is lower than
wafer form manufacturing.
Suitable Panel Size
• Standardization of Panel Size:
– For wafer size, wafer size standard specification was decided.
– But for panel size, there is no standard size of panel form. Therefore, each
equipment supplier made their own panel size. It should be increase equipment
cost.
– To reduce equipment cost, panel size standardization is necessary.
• Area to be considered:
– equipment
– process optimization
– material
Potential Area
• Investigate the Future needs of Panel Size Processing Technology
• Collect the inputs from Assembly houses, equipment manufacturers
and material manufacturers for current status and their strategy
– Material
– Process
– Equipment readiness
– Suitable Size
• Issue the white paper for cost benefit
