Title :
Thermal cycling reliability of die bonding adhesives
Abstract :
A study of thermal cycling endurance of three different die attach adhesives by measuring the increase in thermal resistance during a thermal cycling test is discussed. Test chips were bonded to three substrates with different coefficients of thermal expansion. The thermal resistance increased with increased number of temperature cycles. A large mismatch in thermal expansion gave the fastest increase in thermal resistance. The study also revealed a significant difference in behavior between the different adhesives.<>
