TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of chip packaging, and particularly relates to a packaging device based on gradient Flux indium sheet and a processing technology. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of 5G communication, artificial intelligence and new energy vehicles, electronic devices are rapidly evolving towards high power density and miniaturization. This trend poses unprecedented challenges to chip packaging technology, especially in terms of thermal management. Traditional packaging technology has been difficult to meet the stringent requirements of current high-end electronic devices for heat dissipation performance and reliability, and it is urgent to develop a new generation of thermal interface materials and supporting packaging processes.
[0003] In the past indium sheet heat dissipation packaging process equipment, the indium sheet is 100% In, and Flux spraying is needed to ensure the melting effect in the subsequent welding process. Flux type indium sheet material itself contains Flux, and there is no need to apply Flux during the process, which reduces the process difficulty, but it is necessary to ensure that the Flux indium sheet will not deviate due to movement and vibration, and cleaning process is needed after packaging is completed, which increases the additional cost. Secondly, the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between indium and the substrate will cause stress concentration in thermal cycling, resulting in rapid decay of interfacial shear strength; thirdly, the existing packaging process requires very high equipment precision (alignment error <1 μm), resulting in high production cost.
[0004] The industry has made various attempts to solve these problems. Existing patent technologies propose a silver-coated indium sheet solution, which slightly improves the thermal resistance but increases the cost by 3 times; in addition, the existing technology also develops an indium sheet with pre-mixed Flux, but the uneven distribution of active substances causes welding defects. These solutions have not fundamentally solved the balance between reliability and process feasibility. SUMMARY

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0038] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application or the prior art, the drawings needed to be used in the embodiments or prior art description will be briefly introduced as follows.
[0039] Figure 1 is the overall process flowchart of the embodiment of the present application;
[0040] Figure 2 is the thixotropic agent action principle diagram of the embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of the present application.
[0042] As shown in Figure 1 , the embodiment of the present application provides a packaging device based on gradient Flux indium sheet, which comprises a feeding unit, a plasma processing unit, a glue coating and detection unit, a UV curing unit, a spraying FLUX and AOI detection unit, an indium sheet pasting unit, a heat dissipation cover pasting unit, a hot pressing unit and a discharging unit.
[0043] The device realizes the precise packaging of Flux type indium sheet through the cooperative work of the nine functional units. The core innovation is that:
[0044] The gradient Flux indium sheet is matched with a special device for phased pressing process, which embodies the three-in-one design of material-process-device;
[0045] The integrated multiple AOI detection points realize the whole-process quality traceability and closed-loop quality control, and the Flux gradient distribution cooperatively improves the welding reliability. For details, refer to Table 1 shown below.
[0046] Table 1
[0047]
[0048] First, the feeding unit includes a six-axis mechanical arm and a vacuum suction nozzle, the adsorption force can reach 5-8 N / cm 2 , the electrostatic voltage is 200-500 V, and a double-CCD visual positioning system is equipped, the positioning accuracy can be controlled within ±5 μm, and the Flux type indium sheet and the substrate can be accurately grabbed.
[0049] The Flux type indium sheet is an indium-based composite material, which includes an indium matrix and a Flux active agent.
[0050] The indium matrix adopts indium or indium-silver alloy with purity ≥99.999%; at this time, the ductility (fracture elongation ≥50%) and thermal conductivity (86 W / m·K) of high-purity indium can reach the optimal balance, and the content of impurities (such as Pb and Cd) <50ppm can avoid problems such as grain boundary embrittlement and electromigration failure. And at this purity, the shear strength can reach 20.5 MPa, and the thermal cycle life can reach 1500 times.
[0051] The Flux active agent is uniformly distributed in the indium matrix, and the Flux active agent is composed of rosin, organic amine and thixotropic agent, and the total content is 5-15wt%; the organic amine of the Flux active agent is diethylamine, which accounts for 2-4wt% in the Flux, and forms a chelation effect with rosin, so that the reduction activation energy of copper oxide is reduced to 35kJ / mol.
[0052] The thickness of the indium sheet is 0.1-0.3mm. According to the experiment, the thickness of 0.2mm contributes to the thermal resistance of only 0.0023K·cm 2 / W, which can improve economic benefits while achieving the best stress distribution and optimal thermal resistance control (0.018K·cm 2 / W).
[0053] Meanwhile, the Flux active agent on the Flux type indium sheet is gradiently distributed: the surface layer Flux content is 10-15wt%, and the inner layer Flux content is 3-5wt%; this design method preferentially forms an active protective layer at the welding interface, and the inner layer continuously replenishes and consumes active substances. Compared with the uniform distribution method, the welding cavity rate of the gradient distribution can be reduced to 0.4% (while the welding cavity rate of the uniform distribution is as high as 1.2%), and in addition, the flux residue of the gradient distribution is reduced to 0.18mg / cm 2 (while the welding cavity rate of the uniform distribution is as high as 0.35mg / cm 2 ).
[0054] The thixotropic agent is fumed silica (specifically shown in Figure 2 ), so that the Flux has static high viscosity (anti-flowing) and dynamic low viscosity (easy to spray), and the edge coverage rate can be improved from 89% to 98%; the addition amount is 1-3% of the total weight of the Flux active agent, when the addition amount is less than 1%, although a higher spraying atomization effect can be brought, but the flowing is easy to occur in a high temperature environment, which affects the pasting effect, when the addition amount is greater than 3%, the gelation is excessive, which is easy to cause the nozzle to be blocked, therefore, when the addition amount is 1-3%, the optimization can be fully obtained, by precisely controlling the addition amount and dispersion state of the fumed SiO2, the "intelligent rheological" property of the Flux active agent is realized, the welding process window is widened by 40%, which is a key material innovation point of the high reliability of the application.
[0055] The plasma treatment unit adopts Ar / O2 mixed gas plasma with a radio frequency power of 300-500W (under the cover radio frequency power, the stable plasma density can be maintained), and the treatment time is 30-60s (to ensure that the surface modification depth is ≥50nm), so that the contact angle of the substrate surface is reduced from 80° to <10°, and the flow ratio of the Ar / O2 mixed gas is 4:1. The mixed gas can balance the physical bombardment and oxidation reaction.
[0056] The first glue coating and detection unit includes a screw pump quantitative extrusion system and a 3D line laser scanner, the coating thickness is 15±2 μm, the detection resolution is 0.5 μm, and the coating quality is determined by an optical detection method.
[0057] The UV curing unit adopts a 365nm+395nm dual-band UV light source, the energy density is 80-120mJ / cm 2 , the curing time is 10-30s, and the surface temperature is controlled to be less than or equal to 65°C synchronously;
[0058] The first spraying FLUX and AOI detection unit uniformly applies flux to the surface of the substrate after the glue is cured, and synchronously ensures the flux coating quality through an AOI system, including a piezoelectric spray valve and a multispectral imaging system, the minimum droplet is 5pL, the spraying amount is 0.8-1.2mg / cm 2 , the film thickness is 3-5 μm, and the multispectral AOI detection coverage is greater than or equal to 98%, and the characteristic peak intensity CV is less than or equal to 5% synchronously;
[0059] The indium sheet pasting unit presses the indium sheet to the substrate through electrostatic adsorption, the pasting precision is ±3 μm, and the pasting force is 10-20N;
[0060] The second spraying FLUX and AOI detection unit selectively supplements spraying according to the first spraying detection result, and then sprays flux again through the piezoelectric spray valve, detects the position offset of the indium sheet by using a 3D line laser (resolution 5 μm), triggers the piezoelectric ceramic compensation when the offset amount is greater than or equal to ±0.05mm, and increases the edge spraying path density by 20% when the edge coverage is less than 95%.
[0061] Specifically, it can be shown in Table 2 as shown in the following table:
[0062] Table 2
[0063]
[0064] The double-stage FLUX spraying mode can ensure basic coverage by first spraying, solve local defects by secondary intelligent supplementary spraying, and realize quality tracing of the coating glue→FLUX→final inspection full process.
[0065] Meanwhile, the second coating glue coating+AOI detection equipment 8 is used for coating of the heat dissipation interface material.
[0066] The heat dissipation cover pasting unit completes the heat dissipation cover assembly through visual alignment and step pressure;
[0067] The hot pressing unit performs pressing operation with step pressure, and monitors the contact resistance to a stable value less than 0.01Ω in real time;
[0068] The step pressure adopted by the hot pressing unit specifically includes: the first stage 80-100℃ preheating 10-30s to activate the Flux, the second stage 140-150℃ welding 20-40s to melt the indium sheet, the third stage 100-110℃ slow cooling 20-25s, and the control pressure is 2-3N. The specific performance is shown in the following table 3.
[0069] Table 3
[0070]
[0071] Of course, the hot pressing unit can also be further improved according to needs.
[0072] The step pressure adopted by the hot pressing unit specifically includes: the first stage 80-100℃ preheating 10-30s to activate the Flux, the second stage 140-150℃ welding 20-40s to melt the indium sheet, the third stage 100-110℃ slow cooling 20-25s, and the control pressure is 2-3N. The specific performance is shown in the following table 3.
[0073] The specific performance is shown in the following table 4.
[0074] Table 4
[0075]
[0076] The second stage welding process adopted in table 3 and table 4 is different, mainly to cope with different chip packaging (table 3 mainly processes 30-50nm interface IMC thickness of chip, while the method of table 4 can process 80-100nm interface IMC thickness of chip packaging), compared with the traditional constant temperature and constant pressure state, the void rate can be reduced to ≤0.3% (the void rate of traditional constant temperature and constant pressure reaches 0.8-1.5%), which is reduced by more than 75%. And by using the stage hot pressing method, the shear strength can reach ≥22MPa, while the shear strength of the traditional constant pressure and constant temperature hot pressing method is ≤15MPa.
[0077] The blanking unit is based on the X-ray detection result for sorting.
[0078] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following economic benefits, which are shown in table 5:

[0082] The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the application. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the application to the exact construction and practice described.
