Problems solved by technology

The main advantages of this method are good process controllability and high product yield, but it has obvious disadvantages at the same time: many preparation procedures, large equipment investment, high cost, and it is easy to introduce various ② The spray method is extended from the traditional powder preparation technology, which is characterized by strong production capacity but poor process controllability. In order to obtain solder balls in the required particle size range, it must go through multiple classification processes, which is easy to cause welding Oxidation and damage on the surface of the ball
The instillation method is to mold the molten metal with a fixed size. It is also characterized by strong production capacity, but the disadvantage is that it cannot effectively control the size and continuous growth of the droplets, and the solder balls have poor uniformity, low sphericity and surface oxidation.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] A typical micro-solder ball preparation process includes the following steps:

[0026] 1. Using IC manufacturing process to prepare reusable substrates

[0027] (1) First, the single-sided polished N-type (100) silicon wafer is cleaned, and then thermally oxidized, and the thickness of the silicon dioxide oxide layer 102 is about 0.3 microns;

[0028] (2) Vacuum sputtering metal conductive layer TiW and Au 103, the thickness is about 0.05 micron and 0.2 micron respectively; the adhesion between the silicon dioxide layer and Au is poor, so TiW is used as the metal adhesion layer on the silicon dioxide , the three layers of metals are sputtered sequentially in the same vacuum chamber;

[0029] (3) Then deposit a barrier layer SiO on the conductive layer by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) 2 or Si 3 o 4 104 with a thickness of about 0.1 micron; a circular barrier opening is photoetched to expose the conductive layer metal by using positive photoresist,...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a small solder ball, in which a substrate is reusable. The invention is characterized in: firstly, the reusable substrate is prepared by means of ICmanufacture process: a silicon wafer is used as a base, a metal conducting layer is sputtered from the front after heat oxidation treatment; secondly, the small solder ball is manufactured on the reusable substrate: a metal sacrificial layer is sputtered on the substrate to cover the opening of the conducting layer, thick photosensitive resist is coated and an electroplating window is photoetched, then solder is electroplated, the thick photosensitive resist is removed after electroplating, the solder is reflowed to form a solder ball, thereafter the metal sacrificial layer is corroded to beremoved, so that the solder ball can drop off completely from the reusable substrate, and finally the solder ball is collected. According to the invention, the manufacturing procedure is simple and consumes small energy, the process has good controllability, the bottleneck of low productivity is overcome; the manufactured solder ball has smooth surface, good sphericity and uniform size, with the smallest grain diameter being 0.15mm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing tiny solder balls with reusable substrates, belonging to the field of electronic packaging. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of consumer electronic products towards "light, thin, short, small" and multi-functionalization, higher requirements are put forward for electronic assembly technology, forcing packaging technology to be high-density, miniaturized, and integrated. direction evolution. New high-density packaging technologies are constantly emerging, and area array packaging forms such as Ball Grid Array (BGA) and Chip Scale Package (CSP) will become the mainstream of future high-density packaging technologies. In BGA and CSP packaging processes, precision solder balls are used instead of pins to realize electrical and mechanical connections between circuit substrates and chips, which has become a key material for electronic packaging. Advanced electronic packaging has very s...
