13.3.1 Stand off

The stand off between the substrate and the chip is determined by:

The higher the stand off, the better the stresses are released due to TEC (Thermal

Expansion Coefficient) differences between substrate and chip.

13.3.2 Quality of solder joint

A flip-chip joint is considered to be a good joint when the entire solder land has been

wetted by the solder from the bump. The surface of the joint should be smooth and the

shape symmetrical. The soldered joints on a chip should be uniform. Voids in the bumps

after reflow can occur during the reflow process in bumps with high ratio of bump diameter

to bump height, i.e. low bumps with large diameter. No failures have been found to be

related to these voids. Solder joint inspection after reflow can be done with X-ray to

monitor defects such as bridging, open circuits and voids.

13.3.3 Rework

In general, rework is not recommended. By rework we mean the process of removing the

chip from the substrate and replacing it with a new chip. If a chip is removed from the

substrate, most solder balls of the chip will be damaged. In that case it is recommended

not to re-use the chip again.
