Design Characteristics of High Performance and Reduced Cost Chip Scale Package - µBGA
White Paper
ABSTRACT
The thermal performance of four different kinds of μBGA structure of CSP (Chip Scale Package) was investigated using computational fluid dynamics. A major function of the package is to remove the heat generated by the IC chip.
This study explores in detail changes in the thermal performance possible as a function of die size and number of solder balls.
