Abstract

The influence of reflow process to the reliability of Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF) joint using bumpless chip was investigated. Contact resistance of ACF joint was found to increase as the peak reflow temperature increased. The results also indicated bump height was not the controlling factor for the ACF joint reliability. During reliability test, bumpless chips proved to be unreliable owing to inherent behavior of aluminum under wet environment (corrosion-degradation). The moisture ingression into ACF can lead to unstable reliability of the joint. Moreover, ACF showed degradation in both chemical and physical properties, including modulus reduction, polymer hydrolysis, and surface swelling. In reflow soldering after temperature/humidity test, the ACF joint reliability was further deteriorated due to thermal-induced stress of different components' CTE and hydroscopic swelling-induced stress of epoxy. © 2004 IEEE
