Abstract
As the bump diameter and bump pitch of flip chip packages get smaller, the underfill becomes more resistant to flow. Therefore, low viscosity underfills are used in the process to increase the throughput. Problems associated with low viscosity underfills include filler settling and flow induced voids due to fast edge flow. In this paper, we will discuss how the rheological properties can affect underfill filler settling and flow voids. The effects of yield stress of underfill on filler settling and the effects of shear thickening of underfill at large shear rates on flow voids of underfill were investigated. It was shown that the underfills with small fillers have shear-thickening viscosity and yield stress. The filler settling of underfills with yield stress was greatly reduced. A video underfill flow metrology with quartz die packages was developed for flow void observation. The correlation between underfill, substrate properties, and flow voids formation based on the video underfill flow measurement will be discussed.
