Abstract :
This paper presents the evaluation methods used to appraise the reliability of plastic/copper lead frame packaging systems. A discussion of the copper/epoxy system, suspected failure mechanisms, tests designed to explore these mechanisms, and data developed during this study are presented. The data presented indicates the copper/epoxy system can meet or exceed the reliability of the Alloy 42 system.
