Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P – pre-cut dicing and electrically conductive die attach film in one

With Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P, Henkel introduces a precut combination of dicing film and conductive die attach film. As the only materials supplier with proven conductive die attach film technology, Henkel is effectively enabling new device designs that demand thinner die and more die per package. Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P is a pre-cut film, available for 6” or 8” wafers while its predecessor, Loctite Ablestik C100, is a conductive die attach film in roll format.

Prior to Henkel’s introduction of electrically conductive die attach films, the benefits of film technology were only available for laminate-based packages. But the company’s development of Loctite Ablestik C100 in 2010 opened the door for leadframe device manufacturers to also enjoy the well-known advantages of die attach film which include consistent, uniform bondlines, elimination of die tilt and the ability to incorporate ultra-thin wafers. In addition, because films eliminate the fillet associated with paste-based materials, they allow more die per package due to tighter die to pad clearance. Now, leadframe semiconductor specialists have the option to use Henkel’s roll format Loctite Ablestik C100 or its new pre-cut, two-in-one (dicing tape and die attach film combination) Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P conductive die attach films, thereby enabling package design scalability not possible with conventional die attach materials.

Compatible with lamination equipment commonly used in the field, Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P requires no capital equipment investment. With a lamination temperature of 65 degrees Celsius, the novel material complies with most existing equipment and processes for both lamination and backgrinding. Additionally, its unique two-in-one dicing tape and die attach film combination streamlines manufacturing by facilitating an in-line process for thin wafers and a single lamination process in one, combined step.

“Not only does this breakthrough conductive die attach film offer exceptional ease-of-use,” explains Henkel’s Shashi Gupta, Global Marketing Director for Conductive Film, “the higher density chip designs it enables also help manufacturers lower costs. With no fillet to contend with, significantly less gold wire, substrate and mold compound per package unit need to be used. These factors, combined with the streamlined processing it affords, make Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P’s total cost of ownership measurably lower than that of traditional die attach materials.”

Proven effective on a wide range of die sizes (from 0.2 mm x 0.2 mm to 5.0 mm x 5.0 mm), a variety of wafer metallizations including bare silicon, TiNiAg and Au, and multiple leadframe metallizations such as Cu, Ag and Au, Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P offers superior process adaptability. The material also delivers high reliability, having been MSL-1-qualified with several package designs that include SO (SOT and SOD), QFN (DFN) and even smaller-die QFP devices. With excellent electrical conductivity and very low RDS on shift of <10 percent, Loctite Ablestik CDF 200P provides outstanding performance in a remarkable film-based formulation.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin
