System for performing bonding a first substrate to a second substrate
View Patent ↗A system for performing bonding of a first substrate including a first plurality of solder pads to a second substrate including a second plurality of solder pads comprises a first alignment mark set and a first plurality of dots on the first substrate. The system further comprises a second alignment mark set and a second plurality of dots on the second substrate. The second plurality of dots are configured to interlock and form an interlocking key with the first plurality of dots. The first alignment mark set is aligned with the second alignment mark set corresponding to the first and second plurality of dots being aligned and the first and second plurality of solder pads being aligned. The first and second plurality of dots are configured to remain substantially solid during a reflow of the first plurality of solder pads.
1. A system for performing bonding of a first substrate to a second substrate, the first substrate including a first plurality of solder pads, the second substrate including a second plurality of solder pads, the system comprising:
a first alignment mark set and a first plurality of dots on the first substrate, the first plurality of dots configured to remain substantially solid during a reflow of the first plurality of solder pads; and
a second alignment mark set and a second plurality of dots on the second substrate, the second plurality of dots configured to interlock and form an interlocking key with the first plurality of dots, the first alignment mark set being aligned with the second alignment mark set corresponding to the first plurality of dots being aligned with the second plurality of dots and the first plurality of solder pads being aligned with the second plurality of solder pads, the second plurality of dots configured to remain substantially solid during the reflow.
2. The system of claim 1 wherein the first plurality of dots and the second plurality of dots include at least one of Au, Cu, Ni, and NiFe.
3. The system of claim 1 wherein the each of the first plurality of dots has at least one of a substantially circular cross-section, a substantially rectangular cross-section, and a re-entrant cross-section.
4. The system of claim 1 wherein the each of the second plurality of dots has at least one of substantially circular cross-section, a substantially rectangular cross-section, and a re-entrant cross-section.
5. The system of claim 1 wherein the each of at least a portion of the first plurality of dots is tapered.
6. The system of claim 1 wherein the each of at least a portion of the second plurality of dots is tapered.
7. The system of claim 1 wherein the first alignment mark set includes at least one male feature and the second alignment mark set includes at least one female feature corresponding to the at least one male feature.
8. The system of claim 7 wherein the first alignment mark set includes a cross pattern.
9. The system of claim 1 wherein the interlocking key is configured to lock the first plurality of dots interlocks with the second plurality of dots such that the first substrate remains within a desired tolerance with respect to the second substrate during the reflow.
