Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of reliability testing, and in particular to a universal device for batch ultrasonic testing of integrated circuits with different packages. Background Art

[0002] Ultrasonic waves are widely used in nondestructive testing of semiconductor plastic-encapsulated integrated circuits due to their excellent characteristics such as high frequency, short wavelength, good directionality and no radiation damage. Specifically, ultrasonic scanning microscopes use the acoustic continuity of ultrasonic waves to detect defects such as integrated circuit delamination, voids, and cracks. At present, when testing integrated circuits in the industry, testing agencies usually divide the discharge method of the circuit to be tested into two situations. One is that for integrated circuits with large package volume and heavy weight, they are directly put into water with matching anti-static trays or neatly placed on the glass plate of the equipment sink. However, the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuits in this method are prone to produce tiny bubbles in water and adhere to the surface of the circuit. It is necessary to remove the surface bubbles while preventing the circuit from drifting, which makes the detection process difficult to implement and inefficient; the second is that for integrated circuits with small package volume and light weight, the circuits need to be neatly placed on a stainless steel sheet with double-sided tape. The fixed integrated circuit will not drift when entering the water and it is convenient to blow away the bubbles. However, the method of pasting the circuit may cause glue stains on the surface of the circuit substrate and introduce lead deformation during the clamping process of the external lead package circuit, which greatly restricts the efficiency of the current ultrasonic testing process and subsequent finishing process. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a universal device for batch ultrasonic testing of integrated circuits with different packages, so as to solve the problems in the background technology.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a universal device for batch ultrasonic testing of integrated circuits with different packages, comprising: a tray base, a clamping push rod, a fixing push rod and a fixing nut;

[0005] The tray base is a placement plane for different packaged integrated circuits.

[0006] The clamping push rod is assembled with the tray base, and the clamping push rod is limited to move only in the axial direction of the tray base. The clamping push rod is used to move axially to clamp the packaged integrated circuit, and the displacement of the packaged integrated circuit in all directions is limited;

[0007] The fixed push rod and the fixed nut are used to limit the displacement of the clamping push rod and the packaged integrated circuit; the limiting groove of the fixed push rod is assembled with the assembly feature groove of the tray base;

[0008] The fixing nut is used to assemble with the limiting screw of the fixed push rod. The preload force generated by the assembly of the two is applied to the axial direction of the fixed push rod and clamps the assembly beam of the tray base, limiting the clamping push rod, the fixed push rod and the packaged integrated circuit from moving in the axial direction of the assembly beam, and applying clamping force to the clamping push rod and the house integrated circuit in the axial direction of the assembly beam, limiting the six degrees of freedom of the packaged integrated circuit.

[0009] In one embodiment, the tray base includes a bottom fixing groove, an assembly feature groove, an assembly feature beam, an assembly limit groove, and a fixed bottom plate; the external pins on one side of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit are clamped in the bottom fixing groove, the assembly feature groove and the assembly feature beam are used to assemble the clamping push rod and the fixed push rod, and the assembly limit groove is used to limit the displacement of the clamping push rod and the fixed push rod in their respective axial directions.

[0010] In one embodiment, the clamping push rod includes a limiting boss, a fixed side plate, a fixed groove and a concave assembly groove; the limiting boss is assembled in the assembly limiting groove, and the clamping push rod is placed parallel to the concave assembly groove and enters the assembly feature groove, thereby limiting the axial displacement of the clamping push rod only along the assembly feature beam; the fixed side plate is used to clamp the side substrate of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit, and the fixed side plates of the two clamping push rods cooperate with each other to squeeze the two sides of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit respectively, thereby ensuring that the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit is not displaced due to the influence of buoyancy; the fixed groove is used to fix the pins of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit, and the fixed grooves of the two clamping push rods cooperate with each other to fix the pins on both sides of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit respectively, thereby limiting the degree of freedom of the plastic-encapsulated integrated circuit.

[0011] In one embodiment, the fixed push rod includes an assembly boss, a limiting side plate, a limiting groove, an assembly groove and a limiting screw; the assembly boss feature is assembled in the assembly limiting groove, and the fixed push rod is placed parallel to the assembly groove and enters the assembly feature groove, limiting the axial displacement of the clamping push rod only along the assembly feature beam; the limiting side plate is used to limit the side substrate of the last row of plastic-encapsulated integrated circuits, and the limiting groove is used to fix the pins on one side of the last row of plastic-encapsulated integrated circuits.

[0012] In one embodiment, the fixing nut includes an assembly thread and a limiting surface. The assembly thread has the same thread parameters as the limiting screw thread of the fixed push rod. The fixing nut is assembled on the limiting screw. The limiting surface contacts the assembly feature beam. The pre-tightening force is applied to the axial direction of the fixed push rod through the fixing nut to limit the displacement of the clamping push rod, the fixed push rod and the integrated circuit, thereby completing the construction of the universal device.

[0013] In one embodiment, when the universal ultrasonic detection device fixes an integrated circuit with an external pin package, the bottom of the tray base, the clamping push rod and the fixed push rod have groove features, and the pins of the integrated circuit with external pins are placed in the grooves. The fixing grooves of the tray base and the clamping push rod, the fixing grooves of the two clamping push rods, and the fixing grooves of the clamping push rods and the assembly grooves of the fixed push rods cooperate with each other to fix the pins on both sides of the integrated circuit, thereby limiting the displacement of the integrated circuit in a direction perpendicular to the clamping push rod.

[0014] In one embodiment, when the universal ultrasonic detection device fixes an integrated circuit packaged without external pins, the clamping push rod and the fixing push rod are used to apply a certain preload force on the substrate of the integrated circuit packaged without external pins, and the preload force acts in the axial direction of the characteristic beam assembled on the tray base, thereby limiting the six degrees of freedom of the integrated circuit and preventing the integrated circuit from being displaced by buoyancy in the coupling liquid.

[0015] The present invention provides a universal device for batch ultrasonic detection of integrated circuits with different packages. After assembly, the universal device can fix plastic-sealed integrated circuits without external pins such as QFN and plastic-sealed devices with external pins such as SOP and QFP. The fixed push rod and the fixed nut provide a certain pre-tightening force during the assembly process to ensure that the universal device does not undergo any displacement after assembly. The universal device replaces the traditional double-sided adhesive method of pasting the circuit on the surface of a stainless steel sheet, and can effectively avoid the problem of contamination of the surface of the integrated circuit substrate after the ultrasonic detection test and the problem of lead deformation during the circuit clamping process, which is conducive to ensuring the quality of the circuit, improving the efficiency of ultrasonic detection and reducing the probability of appearance problems in subsequent circuits.
