Abstract
The work presented in this paper focuses on the behavior of anisotropically conductive film (ACF) joint under the dynamic loading of flip chip on glass (COG) and flip chip on flexible (COF) substrate packages. Impact tests were performed to investigate the key factors that affect the adhesion strength. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to evaluate the fractography characteristics of the fracture. Impact strength increased with the bonding temperature, but after a certain temperature, it decreased. Good absorption and higher degree of curing at higher bonding temperature accounts for the increase of the adhesion strength, while too high temperature causes overcuring of ACF and degradation at ACF/substrate interface––thus decreases the adhesion strength. Higher extent of air bubbles was found at the ACF/substrate interface of the sample bonded at the higher temperature. These air bubbles reduce the actual contact area and hence reduce the impact strength. Although bonding pressure was not found to influence the impact strength significantly, it is still important for a reliable electrical interconnect. The behaviors of the conductive particles during impact loading were also studied. From the fracture mode study, it was found that impact load caused fracture to propagate in the ACF/substrate interface (for COG packages), and in the ACF matrix (for COF packages). Because of weak interaction of the ACF with the glass, COG showed poor impact adhesion.
