Ultrasonic soldering using of Si-wafer to FR-4 PCB atroom temperature was investigated. Sn3.5Ag foil rolled $100{\mu}m$ was used for solder. The UBM of Si-die was Cu/ Ni/ Al from top to bottom and its thickness was $0.4{\mu}m$, $0.4{\mu}m$, $0.3{\mu}m$ respectively. Pad on FR-4 PCB comprised of Au/ Ni/ Cu from top to bottom and its thickness was $0.05{\mu}m$, $5{\mu}m$, $18{\mu}m$ respectively. The ultrasonic soldering time was changed from 0.5sec to 3.0sec and its power 1400W. As experimental result, reliable bond joint by ultrasonic at room temperature was obtained. The shear strength increased with soldering time up to 2.5 sec. That means at 2.5sec, the shear strength showed maximum rate of 65.23N. The strength decreased to 33.90N at 3.0 sec because the cracks generated along the intermetallic compound between Si-wafer and Sn-3.5mass%Ag solder. intermetallic compound produced by ultrasonic between the solder and the Si-die was $(Cu, Ni)_{6}Sn_{5}$ and the intermetallic compound between solder and pad on FR-4 was $(Ni, Cu)_{3}Sn_{4}$.

Polysilazane and silazane-based precursor films were deposited on stacked TiN/Ti/TEOS/Si-substrate by spin-coating, then annealed at $150{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, integrated further to form the top electrode and pad, and finally characterized. The precursor solutions were composed of 20% perhydro-polysilazane ($SiH_2NH$)n, and 20% hydropolymethyl silazane ($SiHCH_3NH$)n in dibutyl ether. Annealing of the precursor films led to the compositional change of the two chemicals into silicon (di)oxides, which was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra. It is thought that the different results that were obtained originated from the fact that the two precursors, despite having the same synthetic route and annealing conditions, had different chemical properties. Electrical measurement indicated that under 0.6MV/cm, a larger capacitance of $2.776{\times}10^{-11}$ F and a lower leakage current of 0.4 pA were obtained from the polysilazane-based dielectric films, as compared to $9.457{\times}10^{-12}$ F and 2.4 pA from the silazane-based film, thus producing a higher dielectric constant of 5.48 compared to 3.96. FTIR indicated that these superior electrical properties are directly correlated to the amount of Si-O bonds and the improved chemical bonding structures of the spin-on dielectric films, which were derived from a precursor without C. The chemical properties of the precursor films affected both the formation and the electrical properties of the spin-on dielectric film.

In order to develop COG (Chip On Glass) technology for LCD module interconnecting the driver IC to Al pad electrode on the glass substrate, Anisotropic Conductive Adhesive(ACA) process, the most promising one among COG technologies, was investigated. ACA process was carried out by two steps, dispensing of ACA resin in the bonding area and curing by W radiation. Load on the chip was ranged from 2.0 to 15kg and the chip was heated at about 12$0^{\circ}C$. In resin, the density of conductive particles coated with Au or Ni at the surface were 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 particles/$\textrm{mm}^2$, and the diameter of particles were 5, 7 and 12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. As a result of the experiments, ACA process using ACA particle of diameter and density of 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 4000 particles/$\textrm{mm}^2$ respectively shows optimum characteristic with the stabilzed bonding properties and contact resistance.

Ball shear test was performed by test variables such as loading speed and annealing time in order to investigate the effect of surface finishes on the bonding strength of Sn-1.2Ag-0.7Cu-0.4In Pb-free solder. The shear strength increased and the ductility decreased with increasing shear speed. With increasing shear speed, the electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) finish showed dominant brittle fracture mode, while organic solderability preservative (OSP) finish showed pad open fracture mode. The shear strength and toughness for both surface finishes decreased with increasing annealing time under the high-speed shear test of 500 mm/s. Typically, the thickness of intermetallic compound increased with increasing annealing time, which means that exposure of brittle fracture became much easier. With increasing annealing time, the both ENIG and OSP finishes exhibited the pad open fracture mode. Overall, ENIG finish showed higher shear strength rather than OSP finish due to its superior barrier stability.

Recently, the importance of electronic packaging technology has been attracting attention, and heterogeneous integration technology in which chips are stacked out-of-plane direction is being applied to the electronic packaging field. The 2.5D integration circuit is a technology for stacking chips using an interposer including TSV, and is widely used already. Therefore, it is necessary to make the interposer mechanically reliable in the packaging process that undergoes various thermal processes and mechanical loadings. Considering the structural characteristics of the interposer on which several thin films are deposited, thermal stress due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients of materials can have a great effect on reliability. In this study, the mechanical reliability of the metal pad for wire bonding on the silicon interposer against thermal stress was evaluated. After heating the interposer to the solder reflow temperature, the delamination of the metal pad that occurred during cooling was observed and the mechanism was investigated. In addition, it was confirmed that the high cooling rate and the defect caused by handling promote delamination of the metal pads.

This paper describes the design, fabrication and characteristics of a piezoelectric valve using MCA(Multilayer ceramic actuator). The MCA valve, which has the buckling effect, consists of three separate structures; MCA, a valve actuator die and an a seat die. The design of the actuator die was done by FEM modeling and displacement measurement, respectively. The valve seat die with 6 trenches was made, and the actuator die, which is driven to MCA under optimized conditions, was also fabricated. After Si-wafer direct bonding between the seat die and the actuator die, MCA was also anodic bonded to the seat/actuator die structure. PDMS sealing pad was fabricated to minimize a leak-rate. It was also bonded to seat die and SUS package. The MCA valve shows a flow rate of 9.13 sccm at a supplied voltage of 100 V with a 50 % duty cycle, maximum non-linearity was 2.24 % FS and leak rate was $3.03{\times}10^{-8}pa$. $m^3/cm^2$.

We report on the development of a Piezoelectric valvc that is designed to have a high reliability for fluid control systems, such as mass flow control, transportation and chemical analysis. The valve was fabricated using a MCA(multilayer ceramic actuator), which has a low consumption power, high resolution and accurate control. The fabricated valve is composed of MCA, a valve actuator die and an seat die. The design of the actuator dic was done by FEM(finite element method) modeling, respectively. And, the valve seat die with 6 trenches was made. and the actuator die, which possible to optimize control to MCA, was fabricated. After Si-wafer direct bonding between the seat die and the actuator die, MCA was also anodic bonded to the scat/actuator die structure. PDMS(poly dimethylsiloxane) sealing pad was fabricated to minimize a leak-rate. It was also bonded to scat die and stainless steel package. The flow rate was 9.13 sccm at a supplied voltage of 100 V with a 50 % duty ratio and non-linearity was 2.24 % FS. From these results, the fabricated MCA valve is suitable for a variety of flow control equipments, a medical bio-system, semiconductor fabrication process, automobile and air transportation industry with low cost, batch recess and mass production.
