Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of LED, in particular to a manufacturing process of a backlight module and the backlight module. BACKGROUND

[0002] The COB (Chip on Board) backlight module is a kind of backlight module in which LED flip chips are fixed on a substrate by tin paste or other welding materials, and then the LED flip chips are encapsulated.

[0003] Currently, there are two welding methods for the LED chips of the COB backlight module. The first method is to print tin paste on the pads of the substrate, fix the LED chips on the substrate, and realize the welding of the LED chips and the substrate by reflowing. Due to the expansion and contraction of the substrate and the precision of the steel mesh, problems such as tin paste deviation, no tin, less tin or continuous tin are prone to occur, and the larger the size of the substrate is, the more obvious the influence is, which makes the LED chips prone to deviation, side turning or rotation, and leads to poor welding of the LED chips. Moreover, the amount of tin paste and the flatness of the tin paste are difficult to control during the printing of the tin paste, which directly affects the flatness of the welding of the LED chips.

[0004] The second method is to coat or print the flux on the substrate, plate tin on the electrodes of the LED chips, adhere the LED chips on the substrate, and realize the welding of the LED chips and the substrate by reflowing. Since the plated tin layer and the flux are both hard materials, and there is lack of adhesion between the plated tin layer and the flux, the LED chips are prone to deviation during reflowing due to the influence of chain vibration and circulating hot air in the oven, which leads to poor welding of the LED chips. Moreover, the use of flux spraying or dotting has low manufacturing efficiency, and the use of tin paste printing also has the problem of flux printing.

[0005] In addition, since both the first welding method and the second welding method use reflow welding, there are many residues after reflowing, which affects the light emitting effect of the LED, and for large size substrates, warping is prone to occur after reflowing, which affects the performance and assembly of the backlight module.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the present application provides a manufacturing process of a backlight module, comprising the following steps:

[0043] Step S10, providing a substrate 1 and an electronic device 2, forming a first metal layer 11 on the pad surface of the substrate 1 and forming a second metal layer 21 on the pin surface of the electronic device 2, respectively;

[0044] Step S20, bonding the electronic device 2 with the formed second metal layer 21 on the pad surface of the substrate 1 with the formed first metal layer 11;

[0045] Step S30, providing a flexible film 3, bonding the flexible film 3 on the surface of the electronic device 2 away from the substrate 1, so as to fix the electronic device 2 on the substrate 1;

[0046] Step S40, welding the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21, so as to connect the pins of the electronic device 2 and the pads of the substrate 1;

[0047] Step S50, remove the flexible film 3 to obtain the backlight module.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device 2 and the substrate 1 are welded together by the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21, without the need of using the tin paste printing process, which can simplify the production process, effectively avoid the problem of poor die bonding of the electronic device 2 caused by tin paste deviation, no tin paste or less tin paste in the tin paste printing process, and ensure sufficient amount of welding metal to avoid the electronic device 2 from falling off due to insufficient welding force; the flexible film 3 is also provided during welding, which has a certain softness and elasticity, and can press the electronic device 2 when the flexible film 3 is attached to the upper surface of the electronic device 2 without causing damage to the electronic device 2. The flexible film 3 can play a fixing role in the welding process to avoid the electronic device 2 from deviating or turning over, thereby ensuring the consistency of the welding of the electronic device 2. The flexible film 3 can also be reused multiple times to avoid waste and increase manufacturing costs.

[0049] Specifically, in step S10, the first metal layer 11 is formed on the pad surface of the substrate 1 by electroplating or chemical deposition process including step S11;

[0050] Step S12, the second metal layer 21 is formed on the pin surface of the electronic device 2 by electroplating or chemical deposition process. The first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 formed by chemical deposition or electroplating process have smooth surface, high consistency and uniformity, which can improve the flatness of the die bonding of the electronic device 2 and prevent the occurrence of floating core phenomenon, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the die bonding of the electronic device 2.

[0051] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In step S40, the laser welding device 4 is provided, and the laser emitted by the laser welding device 4 melts the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21.

[0052] Step S42, after the first metal layer 11 and the second metal 12 are cooled and solidified, a welding layer 5 is formed, and the pins of the electronic device 2 and the pads of the substrate 1 are connected through the welding layer 5. The laser emitted by the laser welding device 4 passes through the flexible film 3 and is irradiated on the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21, so that the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 are melted. After stopping the laser irradiation, the melted first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 are cooled and solidified to form a welding layer 5, and the pins of the electronic device 2 and the pads of the substrate 1 are connected through the welding layer 5.

[0053] Specifically, the thickness of the first metal layer 11 on the pad of the substrate 1 is 10-92um, and the thickness of the second metal layer 21 on the pin of the electronic device 2 is 8-20um. The first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 in this thickness range can ensure that the electronic device 2 and the substrate 1 are firmly fixed together, and the performance and appearance of the backlight module as a whole will not be affected due to too much molten first metal layer 11 and second metal layer 21.

[0054] Specifically, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the electronic device 2 includes an LED chip 22 and a driving element 23, the LED chip 22 is an LED flip chip, and the pad includes an LED pad and a driving element pad. Preferably, the thickness of the first metal layer 11 on the LED pad is 10-30um, and the thickness of the second metal layer 21 on the pin of the LED chip 22 is 8-20um, which can avoid the molten first metal layer 11 and second metal layer 21 overflowing onto the surface of the LED chip 22 to cause short circuit.

[0055] Further, the thickness of the first metal layer 11 of the driving element pad is greater than the thickness of the first metal layer 11 of the LED pad, and the thickness of the second metal layer 21 on the pin of the driving element 23 is greater than the thickness of the second metal layer 21 on the pin of the LED chip 22. Because the size of the driving element 23 is usually larger than the size of the LED chip 22, more solder metal layers are needed to ensure that the driving element 23 can be firmly fixed on the driving element pad.

[0056] In other embodiments, because the size of the driving element 23 is larger, the traditional printed tin paste soldering process can also be used to fix the driving element 23 on the pad.

[0057] Specifically, when the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23 are located on different sides of the substrate 1, the LED chip 22 can be first attached to the LED pad surface of the substrate 1, and then the flexible film 3 is attached to the LED chip 22 to fix the LED chip 22 on the LED pad. After the first metal layer 11 of the LED pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the LED chip 22, the flexible film 3 on the LED chip 22 is removed. Then, the driving element 23 is attached to the driving element pad of the substrate 1, and the flexible film 3 is attached to the driving element 23 to fix the driving element 23 on the driving element pad. Then, the first metal layer 11 of the driving element pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the driving element 23, and the flexible film 3 is removed after welding to obtain the backlight module. Alternatively, the driving element 23 can be first attached to the driving element pad of the substrate 1, and the flexible film 3 is attached to the driving element 23 to fix the driving element 23 on the driving element pad. Then, the first metal layer 11 of the driving element pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the driving element 23, and the flexible film 3 is removed after welding. Then, the LED chip 22 is attached to the LED pad surface of the substrate 1, and the flexible film 3 is attached to the LED chip 22 to fix the LED chip 22 on the LED pad. Then, the first metal layer 11 of the LED pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the LED chip 22, and the flexible film 3 on the LED chip 22 is removed after welding to obtain the backlight module. The welding sequence of the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23 can be determined according to actual conditions.

[0058] Specifically, when the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23 are located on the same side of the substrate 1, the size of the driving element 23 is larger than that of the LED chip 22, resulting in different heights of the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23 attached to the substrate 1. The flexible film 3 cannot be simultaneously attached to the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23. Therefore, the LED chip 22 is first attached to the LED pad surface of the substrate 1, and then the flexible film 3 is attached to the LED chip 22 to fix the LED chip 22 on the LED pad. After the first metal layer 11 of the LED pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the LED chip 22, the flexible film 3 on the LED chip 22 is removed. Then, the driving element 23 is attached to the driving element pad of the substrate 1, and the flexible film 3 is attached to the driving element 23 to fix the driving element 23 on the driving element pad. Then, the first metal layer 11 of the driving element pad surface is welded with the second metal layer 21 of the pin surface of the driving element 23, and the flexible film 3 is removed after welding to obtain the backlight module. By welding the LED chip 22 first and then welding the driving element 23, the flexible film 3 can play a fixing role during the welding of the LED chip 22 and the driving element 23.

[0059] Specifically, the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 are made of tin metal or tin alloy. Tin has a low melting point and can easily melt rapidly under laser irradiation.

[0060] Specifically, the flexible film is a light-transmitting film, and the thickness of the flexible film 3 is 100-1000 μm. If the thickness of the flexible film 3 is too large, the laser will not be able to penetrate the flexible film 3 easily, making it difficult to melt the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21; if the thickness of the flexible film 3 is too small, the flexible film 3 will not be able to hold the electronic device 2 down, which may cause the electronic device 2 to shift during welding.

[0061] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the laser welding device 4 includes a bracket 41. Inside the bracket 41, a laser source 42, a first support frame 43, and a second support frame 44 are arranged in sequence along the vertical direction. The first support frame 43 includes a light-transmitting plate 431. A flexible film 3 is disposed on the side of the light-transmitting plate 431 near the second support frame 44. A substrate 1 with electronic devices 2 attached is placed on the side of the second support frame 44 near the first support frame 43. The flexible film 3 presses down on the electronic devices 2 on the substrate 1. The laser emitted by the laser source 42 can pass through the light-transmitting plate 431 and the flexible film 3 to heat melt the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21.

[0062] Understandably, the laser light source 42, the light-transmitting plate 431, the flexible film 3, and the substrate 1 on which the electronic device 2 is placed are arranged vertically in sequence. The light-transmitting plate 431 is made of transparent glass or acrylic plexiglass, etc. The light-transmitting plate 431 and the flexible film 3 do not absorb the laser. The laser can pass through the light-transmitting plate 431 and the flexible film 3 to irradiate the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21. After absorbing the laser, the first metal layer 11 and the second metal layer 21 melt and bond together. After cooling, they form a welding layer 5, completing the welding of the electronic device 2. By replacing the traditional reflow soldering with the laser welding device 4, on the one hand, the electronic device 2 can be effectively fixed on the pads of the substrate 1 during the die bonding operation, avoiding the displacement of the electronic device 2 during the welding process; on the other hand, it can avoid the board warping that occurs on the substrate 1 during reflow soldering, thereby affecting product performance and downstream assembly problems.

[0063] Furthermore, the second support frame 44 includes a plurality of telescopic rods 441, which can selectively move the second support frame 44 toward the first support frame 43. The second support frame 44 is height-adjustable, which facilitates the bonding of the substrate 1 on which the electronic device 2 is placed with the flexible film 3.

[0064] In practice, taking the welding of LED chip 22 as an example, the manufacturing process of the backlight module includes the following steps:

[0065] Step S100, providing a substrate 1 and an LED chip 22, forming a tin plating layer on the pads of the substrate 1 by a chemical tin plating process, and forming a tin plating layer on the pins of the LED chip 22 by an electroplating process. Wherein the substrate 1 can be a PCB board, a BT board, an aluminum substrate or an FPB board, the thickness of the tin plating layer is 20um, and the thickness of the tin plating layer is 10um;

[0066] Step S200, using a die bonder to place the LED chip 22 on the pads of the substrate 1;

[0067] Step S300, placing the substrate 1 with the LED chip 22 on the second support frame 44, fixing the flexible film 3 on the light-transmitting plate 431 on the side close to the second support frame 44, and driving the second support frame 44 to rise so that the upper surface of the LED chip 22 is attached to the flexible film 3;

[0068] Step S400, starting the laser welding device 4, the laser emitted by the laser light source 42 transmits through the light-transmitting plate 431 and the flexible film 3 and is irradiated on the tin plating layer and the tin plating layer, and the tin plating layer and the tin plating layer are fixed together after melting, the laser light source 42 is turned off, and the welding is completed after cooling;

[0069] Step S500, driving the second support frame 44 to descend, thereby removing the flexible film 3 to obtain a backlight module.

[0070] Comparative example:

[0071] Step S101, providing an LED chip 22, and forming a tin plating layer on the pins of the LED chip 22, wherein the thickness of the tin plating layer is 10um;

[0072] Step S201, providing a substrate 1, printing a flux on the pads of the substrate 1, and using a die bonder to place the LED chip 22 with the tin plating layer formed thereon on the pads of the substrate 1 with the flux printed thereon;

[0073] Step S301, placing the substrate 1 with the LED chip 22 placed thereon into a reflow oven to obtain a backlight module by a reflow welding process.

[0074] Test: A chip thrust machine is used to test the welding thrust of the LED chip 22 of the backlight module obtained by the manufacturing process of the backlight module of the embodiment and the manufacturing process of the backlight module of the comparative example, and the test results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
