III. FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING OF BGA WARPAGE<br />

A finite element model is built for this package (Fig. 11).<br />

Non-linear material properties are applied both for the<br />

overmould and BT laminate, in order to be able to include<br />

the T g for both materials.<br />

IV. CONCLUSIONS<br />

Warpage has been successfully measured using the<br />

INSIDIX equipment. For the particular PBGA package, a<br />

significant impact of moisture uptake and the Tg of the<br />

overmould has been found. It was shown that FEM can be<br />

used to estimate warpage of large package under reflow<br />

conditions.<br />

With the same simulation model, the out-of-plane<br />

deformation over the diagonal of the package was calculated<br />

for different expansion strains. Comparing the results with<br />

the experiment, it was found that the moisture uptake by the<br />

overmould causes an expansion of about 0.12%.<br />
