Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of substrate ball planting, and in particular to a ball planting method, device, electronic equipment and storage medium based on a 3D printing process. Background Art

[0002] The development of big data and artificial intelligence has driven the development of integrated circuits, and packaging technology is also changing with each passing day. Electronic packaging technology is one of the three cores of the integrated circuit industry. Among them, thanks to its small size, large storage space, and only one-third of the volume of other packaging products under the same memory, BGA (Ball Grid Array) packaging has become the best choice for high-density, high-performance, multi-functional and high I / 0 pin packaging of VLSI chips such as CPUs and north and south bridges. At the same time, it also has the advantage of higher electrical performance, because the pins of BGA packaged memory are originally led outward from the center of the chip, which can effectively shorten the signal conduction path and reduce signal loss. In addition, the chip's anti-interference and anti-noise performance are also better.

[0003] At present, in the process of electronic assembly, BGA device ball planting generally uses BGA ball planting tools. Such tools are generally composed of solder ball leaking plates and fixtures. Solder ball leaking plates are usually made of stainless steel plates with laser holes, and the hole positions are determined according to the positions of the solder balls of BGA devices. The fixture is used to fix the BGA device and the leaking plate during the ball planting process. Before ball planting, solder paste is printed on the bottom of the BGA or flux is applied, and the leaking plate is placed on the fixture and installed. During operation, the solder balls are evenly sprinkled on the leaking plate. The solder balls will roll into the holes of the leaking plate, and the remaining solder balls can slide to the edge of the leaking plate. At this time, the leaking plate is removed and the solder balls remain on the BGA device. Finally, the BGA device and solder balls are heated as a whole, and the solder balls can be melted and welded on the BGA device to complete the ball planting operation. This method is inexpensive but has high technical requirements for the operator. It is easy to cause the solder balls to roll and shift from their original position, thereby creating the risk of short circuits. In addition, special tooling needs to be customized according to the device size for different BGA ball plantings, which cannot meet the ball planting needs of general electronic assembly plants for multi-variety and small batch BGA devices. Although dedicated BGA automated ball placement equipment has improved the efficiency and success rate of ball placement and reduced the cost of ball placement to a certain extent, this type of equipment is expensive and still requires customized special molds based on device sizes, so it cannot meet the general electronic assembly plant's multi-variety, small-batch BGA device placement needs.

[0004] At the same time, BGA devices are expensive and it is a great waste to discard them. However, when BGA devices are repaired, the solder balls will be damaged. Therefore, they need to be re-planted before reusing the devices. In addition, due to its small size, the BGA packaging method has very high requirements for solder joints. Once the solder joints have problems such as empty solder joints and false solder joints, the BGA packaging will directly fail. Therefore, a rework station equipment is still needed in the current BGA packaging process.

[0005] In addition, BGA-specific solder balls are required, which have a complex preparation process, are expensive, and have a low yield rate. Moreover, due to the limitations of the solder ball production process, it is difficult for existing BGA packages to achieve ball planting operations with a diameter of less than 200 μm. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention provides a ball planting method, device, electronic device and storage medium based on 3D printing technology, which are used to solve the defects of BGA packaging in the prior art, such as high cost, large ball planting diameter, difficult to ensure ball planting quality, and unsuitability for ball planting requirements of multi-variety and small batch BGA devices, and realize the precise printing of high-density, high-reliability, high-efficiency, high-compatibility and cost-effective spherical solder joints without the use of solder balls.

[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0054] The traditional ball planting process can only accommodate ball grid spacing with a spacing limit of 100μm to 200μm, and there are few material options and low process compatibility. With the continuous reduction of integrated circuit size and the exponential growth of integration, the ball planting diameter and spacing are also constantly shrinking, and three-dimensional integration is becoming a new trend. The traditional process to achieve three-dimensional packaging of chips requires a complex process flow, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and greatly increases the packaging cost.

[0055] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention introduces ultra-high precision 3D printing technology into the semiconductor back-end packaging industry, develops a ball planting method based on ultra-high precision 3D printing, and realizes three-dimensional integrated rapid packaging of chips.

[0056] Combine the following Figure 1 - Figure 8 describes the ball planting method based on 3D printing process of the present invention. The ball planting method specifically includes the following steps:

[0057] 101. Obtain ball planting parameters and ball planting material model;

[0058] 102. Based on the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model, simulate and obtain a simulated printing path;

[0059] 103. Based on the simulated printing path and the height data of the printing needle from the processing point of the substrate, obtain the actual printing path of the substrate by fitting;

[0060] 104. Perform printing on the substrate based on the actual printing path;

[0061] 105. Based on the actual printing path, perform sintering after printing is completed to form spherical solder joints set according to the ball implantation parameters on the substrate.

[0062] Specifically, in one embodiment, the ball planting parameters at least include: ball planting diameter, ball grid pitch, and ball planting shape.

[0063] It is understandable that after the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model are determined, the printing path model is determined based on the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model simulation, and then the printing path model and the height data of the substrate processing point are fitted to obtain the actual printing path of the substrate; finally, based on the actual printing path, printing is performed on the substrate, and after the printing is completed, laser sintering or full-width infrared sintering is performed based on the same path to form the required spherical solder joints. The 3D printing technology is used to control the moving speed of the needle, the discharge frequency, and the discharge amount, so that the solder forms a distribution of spherical solder joints with the ball planting shape required by the ball planting parameters according to the set ball planting diameter and ball grid spacing on the substrate. The uniformity of the size and shape of the solder joints is easier to ensure, the reliability is high, and the ball planting speed is fast.

[0064] Specifically, the ball planting method described in the embodiment of the present invention is realized by 3D printing, and the ball planting process can be performed using metal conductive solders such as gold, silver, copper, tin, nickel, aluminum, and other semiconductors, superconductors, dielectric inks, polymers such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyimide (PI), ceramics, and glass. Micro-nano metal powders or wires can also be used in conjunction with a heated extrusion print head to perform the operation.

[0065] More specifically, when different materials as described above are used, the ball implantation method described in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to different fields, such as: ball grid array preparation, microlens preparation, microball plate preparation, microneedle array preparation and the preparation of corresponding products with similar morphology and process.

[0066] Furthermore, the ball planting method described in the embodiment of the present invention avoids the use of solder balls and customized special molds, thereby simplifying the process and greatly reducing costs. It can also meet the ball planting needs of multi-variety and small-batch BGA devices in general electronic assembly plants. At the same time, the solder is not easy to roll and shift from its original position, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit.

[0067] When a BGA device is repaired, the solder joints will be damaged. Before reusing the BGA device, it is necessary to re-plant the balls. According to the re-planting parameter requirements, after setting the re-planting parameters, the re-planting method based on the 3D printing process of the present invention is also applicable to the re-planting of BGA devices, thereby realizing the integrated packaging and repair of BGA devices, and at the same time, the repair reliability is high, far exceeding the traditional repair method.

[0068] In one embodiment, before fitting to obtain the actual printing path of the substrate based on the simulated printing path and the height data of the printing needle from the processing point of the substrate, the method includes:

[0069] Aligning the printing needle head with the processing point of the substrate;

[0070] Based on visual capture, the distance between the printing needle and the basic processing point is adjusted, and the distance is used as the height data.

[0071] It can be understood that the ball planting method based on 3D printing process described in the embodiment of the present invention is to print the ball planting material on the substrate according to the actual printing path through the printing needle. Therefore, in order to ensure that the obtained solder joints meet the requirements of the ball planting parameters, it is necessary to strictly control the distance between the printing needle and the substrate, as well as the speed and amount of the ball planting material dripping when the printing needle prints each solder joint.

[0072] Specifically, by aligning the printing needle with the processing point of the substrate; then adjusting the distance between the printing needle and the basic processing point based on visual capture, and using the distance as the height data, the accuracy of the printing path execution is further guaranteed, and the adjustment of the spacing can control the diameter, shape, etc. of the implanted ball, so that the spherical solder joint meets the set requirements.

[0073] More specifically, in order to obtain spherical solder joints that meet the ball planting parameters without strictly controlling the distance between the printing needle and the substrate, as another implementation of the ball planting method based on the 3D printing process described in the embodiment of the present invention, after aligning the processing points of the printing needle and the substrate, an electric field can be introduced during the printing process, and then under the action of the electric field, the printing needle can control the ball planting material more accurately, so that the spherical solder joints can be accurately printed even when the distance between the printing needle and the substrate is not accurately controlled. At the same time, after the electric field is introduced, ball planting materials with lower viscosity can also be planted based on the 3D printing process. In other words, the ball planting method described in the embodiment of the present invention can be more adaptable to ball planting materials and substrates.

[0074] Furthermore, in another embodiment, before aligning the printing needle head with the substrate processing point, the method further includes:

[0075] The substrate is clamped and fixed by a substrate clamp.

[0076] It is understandable that the substrate is clamped and fixed, and then the positioning and spacing are adjusted to make the positioning more accurate.

[0077] For example, after the substrate is clamped and fixed, it can be achieved by setting a reference point on the substrate and then visually aligning the print needle with the reference point; then, the distance between the print needle and the substrate can be detected based on the scanning of the height sensor, that is, the spacing adjustment between the print needle and the substrate can be achieved through the height sensor.

[0078] Therefore, the ball implantation method based on 3D printing technology provided by the present invention can be further divided into the following steps:

[0079] 201. Obtain ball planting parameters and ball planting material model;

[0080] 202. According to the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model, obtain a simulated printing path by simulation;

[0081] 203. After the substrate is clamped and fixed by a substrate clamp, the printing needle and the substrate are positioned and the distance is adjusted;

[0082] 204. According to the simulated printing path and the height data of the printing needle from the processing point of the substrate, obtain the actual printing path of the substrate by fitting;

[0083] 205. Printing ball solder joints on the substrate according to the actual printing path;

[0084] 206. Sinter the substrate according to the actual printing path.

[0085] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the printing needle 1 is perpendicular to the surface of the substrate 2, so that the discharge port of the printing needle 1 is facing the surface of the substrate 2, and then the ball solder joint 3 can be formed on the substrate 2 by moving the printing needle 1 and controlling the discharge. Figure 4 The substrate structure shown.

[0086] More specifically, taking the case where the substrate is subjected to reflow soldering after the ball solder joints are printed on the substrate according to the printing path as an example, the ball planting method based on the 3D printing process of the present invention can be achieved by regulating the printing process in the ball planting process and controlling the reflow soldering curve in the post-processing process. Figure 5a -c shows various shapes of ball planting. The adjustment of the printing process mainly includes the control of the printing path, the precise control of ink extrusion, and the control of the shape of the print needle 1 nozzle.

[0087] Therefore, the printing path is obtained by simulating the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model, and the purpose is that different printing paths have a certain influence on the shape of the formed ball solder joint 3, for example, Figure 7a -d shows several simple printing paths from ball planting point 1 to ball planting point 2. The direction of the printing path, the deflection angle, and the length of the path can affect the shape of the ball solder joint 3. Therefore, the optimal printing path can be designed according to different needs to achieve the optimization of the ball shape and various performance indicators.

[0088] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 6, there is a schematic diagram of the ball after ball implantation. The ball of this shape is the most common form of ball in the industry. The ball implantation method of the present invention can control the ratio of H to r of the ball by adjusting the printing path, ink extrusion and the shape of the nozzle of the printing needle 1 in the printing process to meet the current semiconductor packaging industry's demand for implanting balls with different aspect ratios.

[0089] Figure 8a , b shows two forms of reflow soldering curves, a is a saddle reflow soldering curve, b is a ramp reflow soldering curve, both reflow soldering methods are applicable to the ball implantation method based on 3D printing process of the present invention. Specifically, the reflow soldering temperature curve of the circuit board assembly includes four major blocks: preheating, heat absorption, reflow soldering and cooling.

[0090] Taking solder as an example, the preheating zone usually refers to the area where the temperature rises from room temperature to about 150℃. In this area, the temperature rises slowly (also called primary heating) so that some solvents and water vapor in the solder paste can evaporate in time, and the electronic parts (especially BGA and IO connector parts) slowly heat up to prepare for the high temperature later. The heat absorption zone is almost constant temperature, and the temperature is usually maintained in the area of ​​150±10℃. The ramp temperature usually falls between 150 and 190℃. At this time, the solder paste is on the eve of melting, and the volatiles in the solder paste will be further removed. The activator starts to start and effectively removes the oxides on the welding surface. The surface temperature of the PCB is affected by hot air convection, so that the temperature of components of different sizes and textures can be kept uniform. The reflow zone is the area with the highest reflow temperature in the entire section, which is usually also called the liquid holding time. The peak temperature of the reflow usually depends on the melting point of the solder and the temperature that the assembled parts can withstand. The general peak temperature should be about 25 to 30℃ higher than the normal melting point of the solder paste to successfully complete the welding operation. If it is lower than this temperature, it is very likely to cause cold welding and poor wetting. After the reflow area, the product cools down and solidifies the solder joints, which will be ready for the subsequent assembly process.

[0091] Combine the following Figure 9-11 A ball planting device based on a 3D printing process provided by the present invention is described. The ball planting device based on a 3D printing process described below and the ball planting method based on a 3D printing process described above can refer to each other.

[0092] The ball implantation device includes: an acquisition module 910, a simulation module 920, a fitting module 930, an execution module 940 and a sintering module 950, wherein:

[0093] The acquisition module 910 is used to acquire ball planting parameters and ball planting material model;

[0094] The simulation module 920 is used to simulate and obtain a simulated printing path based on the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model;

[0095] The fitting module 930 is used to fit the actual printing path of the substrate based on the simulated printing path and the height data of the printing needle from the processing point of the substrate;

[0096] The execution module 940 is used to execute printing on the substrate based on the actual printing path;

[0097] The sintering module 950 is used to perform sintering after printing is completed based on the actual printing path, so as to form spherical solder joints set according to the ball implantation parameters on the substrate.

[0098] Specifically, the ball planting parameters should at least include: ball planting diameter, ball grid spacing, and ball planting shape. After determining the ball planting parameters and ball planting material model, the simulation module first simulates and obtains the simulated printing path based on the ball planting parameters and the ball planting material model, and then the fitting module fits the actual printing path of the substrate based on the simulated printing path and the height data of the printing needle from the substrate processing point. After that, the execution module performs printing on the substrate based on the actual printing path, that is, the solder is printed one by one on the substrate according to the ball grid spacing. Finally, the sintering module performs sintering after printing based on the actual printing path to form spherical solder joints set according to the ball planting parameters on the substrate. Through 3D printing technology, the uniformity of the size and shape of the spherical solder joints is easier to ensure, with high reliability and fast ball planting speed. The ball planting device is realized by 3D printing, and can use one or more metal conductive solders such as gold, silver, copper, tin, nickel, aluminum, and other semiconductors, superconductors, dielectric inks, polymers such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyimide (PI), ceramics, and glass for ball planting. Micro-nano metal powders or wires can also be used in conjunction with a heated extrusion print head for this operation.

[0099] More specifically, when different materials as described above are used, the ball implantation method described in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to different fields, such as: ball grid array preparation, microlens preparation, microball plate preparation, microneedle array preparation and the preparation of corresponding products with similar morphology and process.

[0100] Furthermore, by applying the ball planting device described in the embodiment of the present invention, the use of solder balls and customized special molds are avoided, so that the process can be simplified, the cost is greatly reduced, and the ball planting needs of multi-variety and small-batch BGA devices in general electronic assembly plants can be met. At the same time, the solder is not easy to roll and shift from its original position, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit.

[0101] In addition, the ball planting device of the present invention can also be used for re-balling of BGA devices, thereby realizing the integrated packaging and repair of BGA devices, and at the same time, the repair reliability is high, far exceeding the traditional repair method.

[0102] Furthermore, in order to improve the ball planting accuracy, the ball planting device based on the 3D printing process provided by the present invention also includes a calibration module 960 and an adjustment module 970 .

[0103] The calibration module 960 is used to align the printing needle head with the substrate processing point;

[0104] The adjustment module 970 is used to adjust the distance between the printing needle and the basic processing point based on visual capture.

[0105] Furthermore, the ball implantation device based on the 3D printing process provided by the present invention also includes a fixing module 980, and the fixing module 980 is used to fix the substrate.

[0106] like Fig.11 The schematic diagram of the ball implanting device of the present invention is shown in the process of the printing needle 1 discharging material and contacting the substrate 2. Fig.11 It can be seen that by controlling the distance H2 between the printing needle 1 and the substrate 2 during discharge, as well as the pressure and time of discharge, the diameter and shape of the implanted ball can be controlled to a certain extent. The contact area between the ball and the substrate 2 can also be controlled in this way, and controlling the contact area between the ball and the substrate 2 can change the adhesion of the ball and other parameters, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the mechanical properties and electrical properties of the implanted ball.

[0107] Fig.12 An example of a physical structure diagram of an electronic device is shown in FIG.
