Abstract

In this work, we have proposed a method for calculating the residual stress developed during the PCB thermo-compression bonding precess. Residual stress is the most important factor that causes PCB warpage in accordance with the pattern design. In this work, a single-layed double-sided PCB, which is comprised of the dielectric (FR-4) substrate in the middle and copper cladding on the both top and bottom sides, is considered. A reference temperature, where all stress is free, is calculated by comparing the calculated and measured warapge of a PCB of which copper cladding of the top side is removed. Then, the reesidual stress values is calculated for the double-sided PCB.
