Abstract:This work is focused on numerical investigation of the corner delamination behavior at the chip top surface of plastic encapsulated semiconductor packages which is induced under temperature loading. Two points of interest are pursued in this study: 1) impact of mold compound (MC) material properties and 2) influence of package geometry on the delamination behavior. For the first part we identify influence of Young's modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) on the fracture mechanics parameters of the … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
