With the development of electronic products in the direction of miniaturization, high performance and high reliability, microelectronic packaging technology is also facing higher and higher requirements. As a key part of the packaging process, die attach directly affects the performance and life of the product. Traditional die attach technology mainly uses hot pressing or epoxy resin curing, but in recent years, UV enhanced die attach technology has gradually emerged with its unique advantages.
Principles of UV enhanced die attach technology
UV-enhanced die attach technology refers to the use of ultraviolet irradiation to quickly cure the photosensitive adhesive, so as to firmly bond the chip to the substrate. Compared to traditional hot-press or epoxy curing methods, UV curing offers the following advantages:
1. Fast curing: After UV light exposure, the photosensitive adhesive cures almost instantaneously, greatly shortening the production cycle.
2. Low temperature curing: The UV curing process does not require high temperatures, which avoids damage to the device due to thermal stress, especially for temperature-sensitive devices.
3. High positioning accuracy: Due to the fast curing speed, high-precision positioning of chips can be realized.
4. Eco-friendly: The UV curing process is solvent-free and environmentally friendly.
Technical advantages and applications
UV-enhanced die attached technology offers the following advantages over conventional technologies:
1. Increased productivity: The fast-curing feature significantly shortens the cycle time and increases productivity.
2. Improve product quality: High-precision positioning, low-temperature curing and other characteristics effectively improve the reliability of the product.
3. Extended range of applications: Suitable for bonding of various materials and devices to meet the needs of different electronic products.
4. Reduced production costs: Reduced production costs by shortening the production cycle and improving the yield rate.
