MICRO FOOT products include power MOSFETs, analog switches, and power ICs. For battery powered compact devices, this new packaging technology reduces board space requirements, improves thermal performance, and mitigates the parasitic effect typical of leaded packaged products. For example, the 6−bump MICRO FOOT Si8902EDB common drain power MOSFET, which measures just 1.6 mm x 2.4 mm, achieves the same performance as TSSOP−8 devices in a footprint that is 80% smaller and with a 50% lower height profile (Figure 1). A MICRO FOOT analog switch, the 6−bump DG3000DB, offers low charge injection and 1.4 W on−resistance in a footprint measuring just 1.08 mm x 1.58 mm (Figure 2). Vishay Siliconix MICRO FOOT products can be handled with the same process techniques used for high-volume assembly of packaged surface-mount devices. With proper attention to PCB and stencil design, the device will achieve reliable performance without underfill. The advantage of the device’s small footprint and short thermal path make it an ideal option for space-constrained applications in portable devices such as battery packs, PDAs, cellular phones, and notebook computers. This application note discusses the mechanical design and reliability of MICRO FOOT, and then provides guidelines for board layout, the assembly process, and the PCB rework process.

Table 1 shows the main parameters for solder bumps used in MICRO FOOT products. A silicon nitride passivation layer is applied to the active area as the last masking process in fabrication,ensuring that the device passes the pressure pot test. A green laser is used to mark the backside of the die without damaging it. Reliability results for MICRO FOOT products mounted on a FR-4 board without underfill are shown in Table 2. Board materials. Vishay Siliconix MICRO FOOT products are designed to be reliable on most board types, including organic boards such as FR-4 or polyamide boards. The package qualification information is based on the test on 0.5-oz. FR-4 and polyamide boards with NSMD pad design. TABLE 2 ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ ÁÁÁÁÁÁÁ MICRO FOOT Reliability Results Test Condition C: −65_ to 150_C >500 Cycles Test condition B: −40_ to 125_C >1000 Cycles 121_C @ 15PSI 100% Humidity Test 96 Hours The main failure mechanism associated with wafer-level chip-scale packaging is fatigue of the solder joint. The results shown in Table 2 demonstrate that a high level of reliability can be achieved with proper board design and assembly techniques. Land patterns. Two types of land patterns are used for surface-mount packages. Solder mask defined (SMD) pads have a solder mask opening smaller than the metal pad (Figure 3), whereas on-solder mask defined (NSMD) pads have a metal pad smaller than the solder-mask opening (Figure 4). NSMD is recommended for copper etch processes, since it provides a higher level of control compared to SMD etch processes. A small-size NSMD pad definition provides more area (both lateral and vertical) for soldering and more room for escape routing on the PCB. By contrast, SMD pad definition introduces a stress concentration point near the solder mask on the PCB side that may result in solder joint cracking under extreme fatigue conditions. Copper pads should be finished with an organic solderability preservative (OSP) coating. For electroplated nickel-immersion gold finish pads, the gold thickness must be less than 0.5 mm to avoid solder joint embrittlement. Solder Mask Copper Copper FIGURE 3.

Chip pick-and-placement. MICRO FOOT products can be picked and placed with standard pick-and-place equipment. The recommended pick-and-place force is 150 g. Though the part will self-center during solder reflow, the maximum placement offset is 0.02 mm. Reflow Process. MICRO FOOT products can be assembled using standard SMT reflow processes. Similar to any other package, the thermal profile at specific board locations must be determined. Nitrogen purge is recommended during reflow operation. Figure 6 shows a typical reflow profile. Thermal Profile 250 200 Temperature (_C) Board pad design. The landing-pad size for MICRO FOOT products is determined by the bump pitch as shown in Table 3. The pad pattern is circular to ensure a symmetric, barrel-shaped solder bump. 150 100 50 Stencil Design IIncoming Tape and Reel Inspection 0 0 Solder Paste Printing 100 200 300 400 Time (Seconds Chip Placement FIGURE 6. Reflow Profile Reflow Solder Joint Inspection Pack and Ship FIGURE 5. SMT Assembly Process Flow PCB REWORK To replace MICRO FOOT products on PCB, the rework procedure is much like the rework process for a standard BGA or CSP, as long as the rework process duplicates the original reflow profile. The key steps are as follows: 1. Stencil design. Stencil design is the key to ensuring maximum solder paste deposition without compromising the assembly yield from solder joint defects (such as bridging and extraneous solder spheres). The stencil aperture is dependent on the copper pad size, the solder mask opening, and the quantity of solder paste. Remove the MICRO FOOT device using a convection nozzle to create localized heating similar to the original reflow profile. Preheat from the bottom. 2. Once the nozzle temperature is +190_C, use tweezers to remove the part to be replaced. 3. In MICRO FOOT products, the stencil is 0.125-mm (5-mils) thick. The recommended apertures are shown in Table 3 and are fabricated by laser cut. Resurface the pads using a temperature-controlled soldering iron. 4. Apply gel flux to the pad. 5. Use a vacuum needle pick-up tip to pick up the replacement part, and use a placement jig to placed it accurately. 6. Reflow the part using the same convection nozzle, and preheat from the bottom, matching the original reflow profile. Solder-paste printing. The solder-paste printing process involves transferring solder paste through pre-defined apertures via application of pressure. In MICRO FOOT products, the solder paste used is UP78 No-clean eutectic 63 Sn/37Pb type3 or finer solder paste.
