This paper describes the stacking effect for Ceramic Column Grid Array(CCGA) packages used for satellites. Reflow Soldering Process suitable for CCGA package with back structure was set as the process development goal to meet European Cooperation for Space Standardization(ECSS) standard. After analyzing the stacking effect according to the type of CCGA, it is verified by applying it to the CCGA Reflow Soldering Process. In order to confirm the validity of the staking effect analyzed in terms of vibration and thermal characteristics, it is verified through actual specimen production. It analyzes the cause of crack occurrence in the CCGA package and estimates the crack generation point using previously acquired inspection data.

The FPGA is used to the high speed digital satellite communication on the Digital Signal Process Unit of the next generation GEO communication satellite. The high capacity FPGA has the high power dissipation and it is difficult to satisfy the derating requirement of temperature. This matter is the major factor to degrade the equipment life and reliability. The thermal control at the equipment level has been worked through thermal conduction in the space environment. The FPGA of CCGA or BGA package type was mounted on printed circuit board, but the PCB has low efficient to the thermal control. For the FPGA heat dissipation, the heat sink was applied between part lid and housing of equipment and the performance of heat sink was confirmed via thermal vacuum test under the condition of space qualification level. The FPGA of high power dissipation has been difficult to apply for space application, but FPGA with heat sink could be used to space application with the derating temperature margin.
