In this paper, we shall discuss the suitable alternative material to gold for creating traces or electrodes of a noninvasive flexible sensor patch that is used for detecting early extravasation during intravenous cannulation. The samples were prepared by printing $5 mu mathrm{m} -$ to $10 mu mathrm{m} -$ thin piezoresistive polymer-based Carbon paste on a base polymer patch, also called the adhesive film. The first samples have the traces embedded in between two base adhesive films. The sensitivity of the samples was characterized by using a pressure chamber/jig with 4 cm hole to mimic an extravasation by bump formation when pumped with compressed dry air (CDA) that is connected to a 15 psi source. The sensitivity value obtained was 20% up to 23% at 0.16 psi. After optimization of the curing temperature of the adhesive film and piezoresistive polymer-based Carbon traces, ex-vivo test was conducted with the prototype sample placed on the cannulation site of a pork front hock. At 2 ml and 5 ml infused fluid, the sensitivity obtained is only 1.1% and 2.44%, respectively. The overall prototype dimension of all samples is 6 × 7 cm2. The second samples were prepared with narrower trace width and spacing than the first samples. Sensitivity obtained from the second sample at 0.16 psi increased to 50% up to 79%. The third samples were prepared with the same narrow trace with as the second sample, but this time the piezoresistive polymer-based traces were not embedded in two adhesive films, making the sample a single layer patch only. Sensitivity obtained at 0.16 psi increased further to 140% up to 200%. The 0.16 psi readout is based on previous data that at this pressure induced in the 4 mm hole where the adhesive film is placed over, it translates to 3mm bump height at 2ml infused volume on the skin. The results suggest a strong potential in the development of the piezoresistive polymer-based Carbon traces for flexible non-invasive sensor patch for early extravasation detection.
在本文中,我们将讨论合适的替代材料,以创造无创柔性传感器贴片的痕迹或电极,用于检测静脉插管期间的早期外渗。样品是通过在基聚合物贴片上印刷5 mu mathm {m} -$至10 mu mathm {m} -$薄的压阻性聚合物基碳糊来制备的,也称为粘接膜。第一个样品的痕迹嵌入在两个基材胶膜之间。样品的灵敏度是通过使用带有4厘米孔的压力室/夹具来模拟当与15 psi源连接的压缩干空气(CDA)泵送时由凸起形成的外溢来表征的。在0.16 psi下获得的灵敏度值为20%至23%。在优化了胶膜和压阻性聚合物碳迹固化温度后,将原型样品放置在猪前飞节穿刺部位进行离体试验。在输注2 ml和5 ml液体时,灵敏度分别仅为1.1%和2.44%。所有样品的整体原型尺寸为6 × 7 cm2。制备的第二种样品比第一种样品的迹线宽度和间距更窄。在0.16 psi下从第二个样品获得的灵敏度增加到50%到79%。第三个样品与第二个样品具有相同的窄迹,但这一次压阻性聚合物基迹没有嵌入两个胶膜中,使样品仅为单层贴片。在0.16 psi下获得的灵敏度进一步增加到140%至200%。0.16 psi的读数是基于之前的数据,在这个压力下,在4毫米的孔中产生粘胶膜,在2ml的注入量下,它在皮肤上转化为3毫米的凸起高度。研究结果表明,压阻性聚合物基碳迹在开发用于早期外渗检测的柔性无创传感器贴片方面具有很大的潜力。

In this work, a holistic approach, the M3-appraoch (Methodologies, Models, Measures), is applied for the efficient and accurate design of K-band receiver front-end modules for satellite communication applications on earth stations on mobile platforms (ESOMPs). First, based on the targeted application and the international regulatory requirements we derive the system specifications and the system/receiver architecture. Based on this, we specify the system components,. In addition, we develop a concept for low-cost realization of the receiver front-end module, as well as a strategy to test it. Next, the proposed module is modeled and its performance investigated by means of 3D full-wave simulations, both at the component and at the packaging level. Then, test samples are fabricated and measured to verify the results of the full-wave simulations. Excellent correlation between measurements and simulations is achieved. Finally, he verified models are applied to optimize the RF performance of the K-band receiver components and front-end.

Present study focuses on lithography evaluation of dielectric and resist materials for panel level fan out fabrication. All experiments have been conducted on Gen 3 (550x650mm) size glass panels. Slit coating and Laser Direct Imaging (LDI) methods has been used for coating and exposure of dielectric and resist materials respectively. In this study, two positive tone photo definable polymer dielectric (PD) materials and one positive tone photo resist (PR) have been evaluated for process ability in terms of coating uniformity and pattern resolution capability. A special test structures lay out with different size vias and line traces of various Line Width/ Line Space (LW/LS) has been designed for these materials evaluation. Slit coating process was optimized and achieved target coating of $7 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ thick PR layer and $10 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ thick PD layer with TTV of 1% and 3% respectively. Extensive DOE has been carried out to optimize the LDI parameters like exposure dose, focus and laser power to identify optimum conditions for fine LW/LS patterns and smallest via openings on PR and PD layers respectively. Experiment results revealed that fine LW/LS of $2 mu {mathrm{ m}}/2 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ in $7 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ thick PR layer and smallest vias of $3 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ openings in $10 mu {mathrm{ m}}$ PD layers can be achieved using optimized LDI process. The detailed process parameters optimization and material evaluation results have been reported in the subsequent sessions of this paper.
目前研究的重点是电介质和抗蚀剂材料的光刻评价。所有实验均在三代(550x650mm)尺寸的玻璃板上进行。狭缝镀膜和激光直接成像(LDI)分别用于介质和抗蚀剂材料的镀膜和曝光。本研究从涂层均匀性和图案分辨能力两方面对两种正色调光可定义聚合物介电材料(PD)和一种正色调光抗蚀剂(PR)的工艺性能进行了评价。设计了具有不同尺寸通孔和不同线宽/线距(LW/LS)线迹的特殊测试结构,对这些材料进行了评估。对狭缝涂层工艺进行了优化,实现了7 mu {mathrm{m}}$厚PR层和10 mu {mathrm{m}}$厚PD层的目标涂层,TTV分别为1%和3%。为了优化LDI参数,如曝光剂量、聚焦和激光功率,我们进行了大量的DOE试验,以确定在PR层和PD层上获得精细LW/LS图案和最小通孔的最佳条件。实验结果表明,优化后的LDI工艺可以在$7 mathrm{m}}$厚的PR层中获得$2 mathrm{m}}}/2 mathrm{m}}$厚的LW/LS,在$10 mathrm{m}}$ PD层中获得$3 mathrm{m}}$开孔。详细的工艺参数优化和材料评价结果已在本文的后续章节中报道。

Mold compound material plays an important role in the quality improvement and reliability performance of Power SO-8 packages. Different chemistries of epoxy-based mold compounds were successfully evaluated through material analysis, assembly performance, package delamination performance, and reliability performance. Material analysis through material characterizations, stress index calculation, and die stress simulation suggested that EMC-B has the lowest risk of package delamination and solder joint degradation due to its low stress properties. Package delamination and solder joint degradation performance proved that low stress mold compounds resulted to better mold adhesion and solder joint integrity than high stress mold compounds. EMC-B having the lowest stress induced on the die resulted to no delamination after assembly, minor delamination after thermal stress cycle and lowest solder joint degradation after thermal stress cycle. Rdson and dVsd performance after thermal stress cycle verified that solder joint degradation affects the thermal and electrical performance of the package. Overall, Power SO-8 package built using EMC-B resulted to good mold-to-die and mold-toclip adhesion, high solder joint integrity and stable thermal and electrical performance after thermal stress cycle.

The surface planarity of polymeric interlayer dielectrics becomes a key factor for the multi-level interconnection for fan-out wafer level package. The surface topography of polymeric interlayer dielectrics depends on the underlying metal patterns, and the higher degree of planarization was observed with narrower line and larger space. The pressing method is proposed to flatten the surface undulations. The surface of PBO was pressed with a pressing plate during the soft-bake process, and the surface planarity was observed to be improved effectively.

With the emergence of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) and wearable devices in the recent years, Flexible Hybrid Electronics (FHEs) has attracted significant attention. Chip-foil packages (also known as flexible interposers) fabricated by integrating ultra-thin silicon ICs onto or embedded into polymer foils comprising of metal interconnects (wiring lines, through hole via interconnects etc.) for powering up the system and transmission of data signals / IO commands are ideal candidates for FHE integration. The principal advantages of chip-foil packages over standard Surface Mount Device (SMD) components are their bend ability and conformability. However, the behavior of chip-foil packages under repeated bending must be analyzed in detail through extensive investigations to enable the transfer of the technology from research labs to industrial manufacturing platforms. Hence, we conducted two different types of bending tests to examine the repeated or dynamic bending reliability of the wiring lines and the via interconnects of the chip-foil packages. The experimental results highlight the need for design optimized dimensioning of the wiring lines and the via interconnects for manufacturing FHEs with high performance and good dynamic bending reliability. Such results complement the state-of-the-art information available regarding the electrical as well as mechanical reliability of chip-foil packages and are required as essential information for establishing guidelines for handling chip-foil packages during integration as well as for producing FHEs that are more reliable.

Niche applications in automobile and aerospace industries such as the management of integrity and operation based on the inputs from the network of sensors (e.g. pressure, accelerometer, vibration etc.) that are strategically located close to the high temperature area of the engine, requires reliable packaging solution for higher temperature regime around $300^{circ}mathrm{C}$. A unique test vehicle involving different packaging scenarios including multi-layered ceramic capacitor (MLCC), sensor device, passive component and a voltage regulator was designed and fabricated. Different types of wire bond materials, wire bond pad metallization, substrate metallization, die attach materials both conductive and non-conductive types, lid attach materials were investigated and the prospective candidates are recommended for $300^{circ}mathrm{C}$ ambience Key finding of this work are NiAuAg substrate metallization could cater for both Au and Al wire bonds. Ag sintering material is the best suited candidate for conductive die attach application, since it does not induce any thermal stresses to the components, unlike the hard solders counterpart like Au-Sn eutectic or Au-Ge eutectic. Hermeticity of the rugged package involving ceramic substrate is guaranteed by seam welding approach. Functionality of the ruggedized packages is confirmed by pre and post reliability electrical measurements. Reliability tests were carried out to confirm the selected bill of materials (BOM), function reliably at $300^{circ}mathrm{C}$ ambience.

As the traditional lead-containing solders were banned for consumer electronics by RoHS laws, lead-free solders are widely adopted in the electronics packaging industry. The Sn3.0Ag-0.5Cu (wt%, SAC305) solder material is one of the most commonly used die-attach solders. But the reliability of SAC305 solder joints under complex working conditions still requires to be carefully investigated. In this paper, the uniaxial tensile behavior of solder joint specimens with a diameter of 1.0 mm was investigated subjected to the strain rate of $10^{-4} mathrm{s}^{-1}$ under electric current density ranging from 1000 A/cm2 to 4000 A/cm2. In order to reveal the current stress effect under the mechanical-electrical coupled loadings, the uniaxial tensile properties of SAC305 solder joint specimens were measured by a multi-field loading system. In addition, the microstructure of the tensile specimens is observed by a scanning electron microscope. It was found that fracture mode changed from ductile fracture to the combination of brittle and ductile fracture when the current density raised from 1000A/cm2 to 2000A/cm2. And the fracture was more likely to happen near the interface when the current density is higher.
随着传统的含铅焊料被RoHS法规禁止用于消费电子产品,无铅焊料在电子封装行业被广泛采用。Sn3.0Ag-0.5Cu (wt%, SAC305)焊料是最常用的模附焊料之一。但是SAC305焊点在复杂工作条件下的可靠性仍然需要仔细研究。本文研究了直径为1.0 mm的焊点试样在应变率为$10^{-4} mathm {s}^{-1}$的条件下,在电流密度为1000 ~ 4000 a /cm2范围内的单轴拉伸行为。为了揭示机电耦合加载下的电流应力效应,采用多场加载系统对SAC305焊点试件的单轴拉伸性能进行了测试。此外,用扫描电镜观察了拉伸试样的显微组织。当电流密度从1000A/cm2提高到2000A/cm2时,断裂模式由韧性断裂转变为脆性与韧性结合断裂。当电流密度较大时,在界面附近更容易发生断裂。

But the reliability of SAC305 solder joints under complex working conditions still requires to be carefully investigated. In this paper, the uniaxial tensile behavior of solder joint specimens with a diameter of 1.0 mm was investigated subjected to the strain rate of $10^{-4} mathrm{s}^{-1}$ under electric current density ranging from 1000 A/cm2 to 4000 A/cm2. In order to reveal the current stress effect under the mechanical-electrical coupled loadings, the uniaxial tensile properties of SAC305 solder joint specimens were measured by a multi-field loading system. In addition, the microstructure of the tensile specimens is observed by a scanning electron microscope. It was found that fracture mode changed from ductile fracture to the combination of brittle and ductile fracture when the current density raised from 1000A/cm2 to 2000A/cm2. And the fracture was more likely to happen near the interface when the current density is higher.","PeriodicalId":360239,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 20th Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130620468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper describes the development of a highly stretchable and durable textile electrode fabricated by simple stencil and screen printing methods. It specifically investigated the effects of an interface layer as a planarization layer between the conductive electrode and the textile on the durability of the textile electrode. A stretchable conductive paste was synthesized by mixing Ag flake powder in a polyester. The conductive electrode was encapsulated with Ecoflex material. The stretchability and durability of the textile electrodes were evaluated via stretching, MIT folding, and dynamic endurance tests. The stretching and MIT folding tests indicated that the interface layer significantly enhanced the durability of the textile electrode. A highly stretchable and flexible textile electrode exhibited a low sheet resistance of $0.05 Omega /$square, excellent stretchability of 70%. The textile electrodes also withstood stretching endurance tests of 10,000 cycles. The illumination of an LED with the conductive electrode was also stable under 70% tensile strain and in water.

Anodic bonding technology is a well-established industrial technique, which is reported to be the most widely used MEMS packaging method. This Paper studies residual stress issue caused by different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) between silicon and glass during the anodic bonding process and its influence on MEMS-based sensors. For this purpose, SW-YY® Glass from ASAHI is selected. Firstly, the SW-YY® glass material is characterized in the bonding temperature range from 250°C to 500°C and voltage range from 400V-800V. Secondly, a MEMS based pressure sensor and two type glass substrates (SW-YY®, Pyrex®7740) were fabricated and bonded to evaluate the stress issue. Results show that the offset of the pressure sensor introduced by mismatched CTE was reduced significantly with SW-YY® glass than standard Pyrex® ®7740 glass. The proposed method can be used to reduce the influence of the internal stress caused with bonding temperature and the mismatched CTEs for stress sensitive MEMS.
