Analysis of Inspection and DPA Test Requirements applied to Flip Chip Technologies.
Background and motivations.
Flip chip assembly techniques bring a wide range of benefits:
- A reduced parasitic interconnection between the semiconductor die and package.
- Provides a high final assembly integrity density.
- Minimize the interconnection length, providing better electrical performances, especially for high-speed signals.
- Reduce device size and weight,…, etc.
Study approach / Tasks.
Task 1 – Investigate Requirements.
Task 2 – Research Solutions.
Task 3 – Analysis of Solutions.
Task 4 – Demonstrations.
Flip Chip Technologies, Reliability and Failure Modes

Demonstration test flow and performance
A sample with an open circuit in a pre-defined daisy chain was selected (the other daisy chains have good electrical continuity). In order to proceed with the magnetic inspection the heatsink was removed, exposing the substrate pads and the device was biased and inspected with a magnetic microprobe. (Each device has had 8 daisy chain tracks, track 1 at the top of the test part, and 8 at the bottom. The bump array has 24X24 bumps, so each daisy chain corresponds with three bumps lines).
The technique is promising but, it seems very dependant on the kind of available materials in the sample, and the distance, being in our case difficult to obtain useful information.

Test vehicle design and manufacturing.
Alter Technology UK built 37 samples as Test Vehicles inducing key flip-chip failures modes to assess if the selected test flow was able to properly detect the problems.
Check the full paper with all the Optocap Assembly design and manufacturing, the test vehicle and test sample assignment, DPA flow for Flip`-chip construction, some DPA pictures, and the Summary and some of the conclusions after these studies.
Focusing on all aspects related to the usage of Commercial of the Shelf (COTS) Electrical, Electronic and electro-mechanical (EEE) parts in space applications. Although the main goal is to address the specific needs of “New Space” programs such as constellations and /or nano & small satellites, the workshop will cover also classical space missions.
