Abstract
A mechanical part (1) (such as a screening or shielding can) is fixed to a printed circuit board (2) by fixing a plurality of discrete solder pieces (3) to that portion of the mechanical part (1) to be fixed to the printed circuit board; placing the mechanical part on the printed circuit board in the desired position with the solder pieces in contact with the printed circuit board; heating the solder pieces to soften the solder sufficiently for it to flow whilst maintaining the discrete nature of the solder pieces; and allowing the solder to harden, thereby fixing the mechanical part to the printed circuit board.
Description
<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
Fixing Mechanical Parts to PCBs This invention relates to a method of fixing a mechanical part to a printed circuit board (PCB), particularly a high-density PCB, and to a PCB made in accordance with such a method.
Mechanical parts such as screening cans and other metal plated plastics-material parts can be difficult to fix to high-density PCBs in a low cost and reliable way. The conventional method of attaching such a part is to provide it with extensions ("legs") that fit through holes in the PCB, and can be bent over on the reverse side to give a mechanical fixing. This method is not suitable for surface mount assembly processes, is difficult to assemble cost-effectively, and is wasteful in board area.
Although such mechanical parts can be assembled to a PCB using surface mount processes (i. e. solder paste and reflow) it is very difficult to manufacture larger parts with sufficient flatness and good enough process control to guarantee that all surfaces will remain in contact with the solder paste and will solder correctly-there can be gaps as a result, and these are unacceptable in many instances as, for example, they prevent a screening can functioning correctly, or a metal part sitting flat enough on the PCB.
The aim of the invention is to provide an improved method of fixing a mechanical part (such as a screening can) to a high density PCB.
The present invention provides a method of fixing a mechanical part to a printed circuit board, the method comprising the steps of :- a) fixing a plurality of discrete solder pieces to either the printed circuit board or to that portion of the mechanical part to be fixed to the printed circuit board; b) placing the mechanical part against the printed circuit board in the desired position with the solder pieces in contact with the printed circuit board and said portion of the mechanical part;
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
c) heating the solder pieces to soften the solder sufficiently for it to flow whilst maintaining the discrete nature of the solder pieces; and d) allowing the solder to harden, thereby fixing the mechanical part to the printed circuit board.
In a preferred embodiment, solder balls constitute the solder pieces. Alternatively, solder columns or other pre-formed shapes constitute the solder pieces.
In a preferred embodiment, the solder pieces are fixed to said portion of the mechanical part, and the mechanical part is then placed on the printed circuit board in the desired position. Advantageously, the solder pieces are substantially equispaced along an edge surface of the mechanical part, preferably by distances lying within the range of from
1mm to 5mm.
Advantageously, the edge surface is formed on an in-turned or out-turned flange of the mechanical part. Alternatively, the edge surface is constituted by the co-planar surfaces of a plurality of in-turned or out-turned tabs formed on the mechanical part, a respective solder piece being associated with each of the tabs.
The method may further comprise the step of applying solder paste to each region of the edge surface of the mechanical part to which a solder piece is to fixed, prior to placing the discrete solder pieces in position. When the edge surface is formed on said flange, the method may further comprise the step of applying solder resist to those portions of the edge surface between said regions.
Alternatively, the edge surface is formed with a plurality of detents for locating the solder pieces.
Conveniently, the solder pieces are positioned and on, and soldered to, said portion of the mechanical part with said portion uppermost, and step c) is carried out with the mechanical part on top of the printed circuit board, and with the solder pieces facing downwardly.
<Desc/Clms Page number 3>
In a preferred embodiment, the mechanical part is placed on the printed circuit board with the solder pieces in contact with a ground track provided on the surface of the printed circuit board. Alternatively, the mechanical part is placed on the printed circuit board with the solder pieces in contact with respective vias connected to a ground layer formed within the printed circuit board.
The invention also provides a printed circuit board provided with a mechanical part, the mechanical part being fixed to the printed circuit board by means of a plurality of discrete solder pieces fixed to the printed circuit board and positioned along, and fixed to, an edge surface of the mechanical part, the solder pieces having been subjected to heat so as to soften the solder sufficiently for it to flow whilst maintaining the discrete nature of the solder pieces.
A screening may constitute the mechanical part.
The invention will now be described in greater detail, by way of example, with reference to the drawings in which :-
Figure 1 is a schematic side elevation showing a screening can fixed to a PCB by a method in accordance with the invention;
Figure 2 is a schematic end elevation of the arrangement shown in Figure 1; and
Figure 3 is a schematic end elevation of a modified arrangement.
Referring the drawings, Figure 1 shows a screening can 1 fixed to a PCB 2 by means of a plurality of solder balls 3 and a ground track 4 provided on the top surface of the PCB. The solder balls 3 are positioned along a horizontal lower surface 5a of an inwardly-turned flange 5 of the screening can 1. The solder balls 3 are regularly spaced along the surface 5a, for example on a regular pitch of between 1 and 2mm. In order to locate and fix the solder balls 3 in their correct positions, and to prevent the solder balls touching one another, solder resist is applied to the surface Sa at positions between those where the solder balls are to be fixed, and solder paste is applied to the surface 5a, using a stencil, at positions where the solder balls are to be fixed. The
<Desc/Clms Page number 4>
solder balls 3 are then applied to the solder pasted parts of the surface 5a, with the screening can 1 upside-down so that the surface Sa is uppermost, using an apertured plate (or other similar alignment mechanism). The screening can 1 then undergoes reflow whilst upside-down, that is to say with the solder balls 3 uppermost. After the solder balls 3 have solidified, the screening can 1 is then positioned over the PCB 2 in its normal orientation (that is to say with the solder balls 3 lowermost), by aligning the solder balls with the ground track 4, and the connection is completed by treating in a reflow oven, that is to say the screening can is mounted onto the PCB as a conventional large BGA-type device using standard SMT processes.
Figure 3 shows a modified arrangement, in which solder balls 13 are positioned on an underneath surface 15a of a screening can 11, each solder ball being positioned within a respective location detent 15b formed in the surface 15a. Here again, the surfaces of the detents 15b are covered with solder paste via a stencil. However, because of the detents 15b, the remaining area of the surface 15a may not need to be coated with solder resist. The screening can 11 then undergoes reflow whilst upside-down, that is
to say with the solder balls 13 facing upwards. The screening can 11 is then mounted onto a PCB 12 in a similar manner to that in which the screening can 1 of the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2 is mounted on the PCB 2. The connection is completed by treating in a reflow oven.
It will be apparent that modifications could be made to each of the arrangements described above. In particular, a separate small tab for each of the solder balls 3 could be provided in the first embodiment in place of the continuous flange 5. Moreover, in each of the embodiments, pre-formed connections other than solder balls could be used, for example solder columns. It will also be apparent that the screening cans 1 and 11 could be made of cast metal or high temperature plastics material coated with a conductive solderable material.
The use of discrete solder balls 3, 13 gives inherent compliance and tolerance of a lack of flatness during the soldering process. Moreover, by appropriately spacing the solder balls 3, 13. EMC performance will not be significantly degraded. Thus, the solder balls
<Desc/Clms Page number 5>
3, 13, when molten, tend to drop down and partially flow to"fill the gap"between a non-perfectly-flat surface of the screening can 1,11 and the PCB 2,12, thereby making the process of soldering less dependent on accurate process control. In this connection, it should be noted that the surface tension of the molten solder prevents the solder from simply flowing away from the screening can 1, 11 and along the ground track 4,14 of the PCB 2, 12.
It should also be noted that there is no electrical requirement for the screening can to PCB joint to be continuous, as long as the maximum length of gap is less than a predetermined proportion (typically 5 to 10%) of the wavelength of the highest frequency to be screened. It would also be possible to connect the solder balls 3, 13 to a ground layer formed within the PCB 2,12 via multiple low impedance vias or other equivalent mechanisms. However, whether the solder balls 3,13 are connected to a ground track 4,14 or to a nearby ground layer, the continuity and low impedance of the ground connection between the screening can 1, 11 and the PCB 2,12 via the solder balls 3, 13 is important if EMC performance is to be maintained.
It should also be noted that the use of solder paste (and flux) and solder resist is essential only in certain screening can/PCB configurations, and that the use of solder paste, flux and resist is often unnecessary.
