Abstract
In this paper, the attention is focused on the thermomechanical modelling of a new type of area array package: the Flip Chip on Polymer Stud Grid Array (PSGATM). The objective of this study is to optimise the material and geometrical design of this PSGA package and the flip chip assembly in order to achieve the highest thermal fatigue reliability for the solder joints in this structure. A parameterised non linear finite element model is used to calculate the inelastic strains induced in the solder joints due to thermal cycling. The techniques of Design Of Experiments (DOE) and Response Surface Modelling (RSM) enhance the parameter sensitivity analysis and optimisation of the PSGA design. After the optimisation of the structure, a very high solder joint fatigue reliability of this flip chip to PSGA package has been achieved
