Madhav Rao November 3 Face soldering: Folding yield of various 3D structures Folding yield of different face soldered 3D structures. Low face area influences improved yield If solder bridged successfully, folding yield remains same regardless of gap size. 23/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Edge soldering: Folding yield of various 3D structures Folding yield of different edge soldered 3D structures. Low face area influences improved yield: similar trend Low gap size showed higher folding yield, suggesting influence of solder bridging on folding yield. 24/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Folding yield due to different soldering types Folding yield due to different types of soldering for a fixed 7.5 µm gap size between metal faces. Low folding yield was obtained for 4 edge soldered structures. Hence low folding yield is attributed to slightly reduced bridging of edge soldered structures. Solder bridging showed slightly less than 100% and variations for edge soldered patterns 25/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Analysis on solder bridging Solder bridging influences the success of 3D folding. Higher face area deters folding, regardless of the success of solder bridging. Low gap size and increased metal thickness favors the success of solder bridging. 26/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Number of faces: 2 to 8 Face length: 75, 150, 225 and 300 µm Solder coverage: %, 40.5 %, %, % and 100 % Other variables that influence solder bridging 27/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Face soldering: Number of faces and face length a) Bridging yield b) Folding yield a) Bridging and b) folding yield of face soldered patterns of different face length versus number of faces 150 µm face length and above shows improved solder bridging for 7.5 µm gap and 4.9 µm metal thick. Trend of reduced bridging yield is observed as number of faces increases. Folding yield was evaluated by considering only successfully bridged patterns. Lower face length once bridged showed higher folding yield. 28/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Bridging and folding yield of 300 µm face soldered patterned length versus number of faces. Trend of reduced folding yield is observed as number of faces increases. 2 possible reasons: 1. Increase in number of metals to fold, thereby increasing the competition while folding. 2. Higher solder quantity required to fold, for increased number of faces. Face soldering: Number of faces and face length 29/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Bridging and folding yield of edge soldered patterns of different face length versus number of faces Unexpected dependence of face length on bridging yield of edge soldered patterns. a) Bridging yieldb) Folding yield Edge soldering: Number of faces and face length Similar trend: Lower face length once bridged showed higher folding yield. Trend of reduced folding yield is observed as number of faces increases. 30/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Solder coverage Bridging and folding yield of different solder covered metal patterns versus number of faces. a) Bridging yieldb) Folding yield Low bridging yield for lowest solder covered patterns. Increased solder coverage favored success in folding. 31/34

Madhav Rao November 3 Comparison of Truncated square pyramid (TSP) with nominal length of 150 µm and box with four faces of 150 µm face length. Truncation of faces designed helps in folding mechanism and not in bridging. a) Face solderingb) Edge soldering 32/34 Truncation

Madhav Rao November 3 Conclusions 150 µm face length and above shows improved solder bridging. Increased number of faces decreases the bridging and folding yield for both types of soldering. Lower face length once bridged showed higher folding yield for both types of soldering. Increased solder coverage showed improved folding yield. Truncation of faces designed helps in folding mechanism. 33/34
