STAYCHIP™ 2078E no-flow underfill is used to perform the dual functions of a solder flux and an underfill
between (1) a flip chip die and a substrate or (2) an area array device and a printed circuit board. This
material functions as a flux as it solders Sn63/Pb37 bumped pads to common pad metallizations (eutectic
Sn/Pb, Cu/Ni/Ag, and OSP coated Cu), using a conventional reflow profile. The product also functions as
an underfill as it cures during the conventional reflow profile, immediately after soldering, forming a stress
absorbing, compliant matrix that distributes the stress imposed by the CTE mismatch between the die
and substrate. This matrix provides enhanced environmental protection and shock resistance.
