Moisture effects on the reliability of ACF interconnections

Research output: Journal Publications and Reviews › RGC 21 - Publication in refereed journal › peer-review

Abstract

Anisotropic conductive films (ACF), a flip chip interconnection material, offers high density I/O interconnection and low processing temperature. ACF materials are widely used in smart cards, disk drives and driver chips for LCDs. It consist of adhesive and conductive particles. The reliability of ACF is strongly affected by moisture and is a major factor in ACF flip chip failures. Electrical conduction through ACF is achieved by the mechanical deformation of tiny conductive particles contained within the cured adhesives.
