Abstract
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to an electrical element and an electrical connector, especially to an electrical element and an electrical connector that are electrically connected to a circuit board.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- Nowadays electrical connection points for inputting signals on chips increase along with the increasing of the processing speed and functions of integrated-circuit chips such as central processing unit (CPU). Yet the volume after packaging is getting compact.
- In order to catch up with the development of integrated-circuit (IC) chips such as CPU, the electrical connector that connects the IC chips with the circuit board includes more and more terminals with high density. Abundant terminals with high density make how to solder the terminals on the circuit board with good soldering quality become a dilemma. Presently, soldering is the most common way in this field. The electrical connector includes an insulating body, a plurality of terminals received in the insulating body, and a plurality of solder balls corresponding to the terminals. The insulating body is disposed with a plurality of receiving holes and each terminal is received in a corresponding receiving hole. Each terminal electrically connects to the electrical connection points on the IC chips correspondingly. And the electrical connector is soldered to the circuit board by surface mounted technology (SMT).
- However, while soldering the solder balls to the circuit board, the solder ball needs to be fixed in the receiving holes in advance. The ways of fixing the solder balls are divided into two groups: one is pre-soldering the solder balls. The solder ball is melted and attached on the terminal in the receiving hole. Then the solder ball is soldered to the circuit board. The other way is that the solder ball is clamped by the terminal. The terminal holds the solder ball and then the solder ball is soldered to the circuit board.
- No matter which way the solder ball is fixed, the solder ball is assembled with the terminal firstly and then the soldering is performed. However, all people skilled in this field learn that there are two errors that cause solder ball deformation in the electrical connectors available now. One is generated by the insulating body and the other is caused by assembling. During soldering, the high temperature makes the insulating body warp so that the solder balls in the insulating body are not located on the same plane. Thus dewetting or virtual soldering appears and this leads to the error of the insulating body. Moreover, the abundant terminals with high density is difficult to be the same during manufacturing so that solder balls attached on the terminals are not on the same plane. Due to the above errors, the solder balls have height difference. Thus part of the solder balls are unable to contact with solder paste applied to the circuit board and dewetting or virtual soldering occurs.
- Thus there is a need to design an electrical element and an electrical connector that corrects above errors and improve the soldering quality.
- Therefore it is a primary object of the present invention to provide an electrical element as well as an electrical connector that provides optimal soldering quality.
- In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an electrical element for electrically connecting with an external electrical element and having an insulating body, at least one receiving hole disposed on the insulating body, a conductive layer arranged at a surface of the receiving hole and at least one soldering body mounted in the receiving hole correspondingly and contacting with the conductive layer. Part of the soldering body is exposed outside the surface of the insulating body to form a soldering part that is soldered to the external electrical element.
- In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an electrical connector for electrically connecting with an external electrical element and having an insulating body, at least one receiving hole disposed on the insulating body, a conductive layer arranged at surface of the receiving hole, at least one conductive terminal mounted in the receiving hole slantingly and moveably, and at least one soldering body mounted in the receiving hole correspondingly and contacting with the conductive layer. Each conductive terminal includes a head part exposed outside the surface of the insulating body for being pressed and contacting. Part of each soldering body is exposed outside the surface of the insulating body to form a soldering part that is soldered to the external electrical element.
- In order to achieve above object, the electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention includes the conductive layer disposed on surface of the receiving hole. The conductive layer contacts with the soldering body so that the assembly between the soldering body and the terminal is replaced by the electrical conduction and connection of the conductive terminal. Compared with techniques available now, the electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention eliminate assembly errors during manufacturing processes and further improve the soldering quality to a great extent.

FIG. 1 toFIG. 4 , the first embodiment of an electrical element and an electrical connector according to the present invention is revealed. In this embodiment, the electrical element is anelectrical connector 1 that electrically connects achip module 2 to acircuit board 3, as shown inFIG. 4 . Theelectrical connector 1 includes aninsulating body 10, acover 13 arranged over theinsulating body 10, a plurality ofconductive terminals 11 mounted in theinsulating body 10, and a plurality of soldering bodies (the soldering bodies aresolder balls 12 in this embodiment). - A plurality of receiving
holes 100 are disposed on theinsulating body 10, penetrating a top surface and a bottom surface thereof. A surface of each of thereceiving hole 100 is coated with aconductive layer 101. Asolder pad 1010 is arranged at the bottom surface of theinsulating body 10, around the receivinghole 100. It will be mentioned later that a solderingpart 120 of thesolder ball 12 is also on this bottom surface. Theconductive layer 101 and thesolder pad 1010 are connected with each other and are coated at the same time. Moreover, a strip-shapedelastic body 102 is disposed above theinsulating body 10, corresponding to thereceiving hole 100. Theelastic body 102 is in a step shape with a plurality of throughholes 1020 corresponding to thereceiving holes 100. Astopper 1021 is set on one side of each of the throughholes 1020 so that the side with thestopper 1021 is higher than the other side to form a step. - A
loading area 130 is disposed on thecover 13 which is used to receive thechip module 2. A plurality ofinsertion holes 131 are arranged at theloading area 130, and theloading area 130 corresponds to each receivinghole 100 and each throughhole 1020. - The
conductive terminal 11 having ahead part 110, apress part 111 and atail part 112 is mounted in theinsertion hole 131, the throughhole 1020 and the receivinghole 100. Thepress part 111 extends downward from thehead part 110 and thetail part 112 extends downward from thepress part 111. - The
solder ball 12 is arranged on the bottom of the receivinghole 100, contacting with theconductive layer 101 and part of thesolder ball 12 is exposed outside the surface of the insulatingbody 10 to form thesoldering part 120 so as to be soldered to thecircuit board 3. During manufacturing process, the flatness of the insulatingbody 10 is difficult to maintain, with certain warps. In this embodiment, thesolder ball 12 is disposed on each receivinghole 100 so that thesolder balls 12 are kept on the same plane by some tools even under the condition that the insulatingbody 10 is prone to warp. This is beneficial to following soldering process. Thesolder ball 12 consists of a main part which is made oftin 121 and anelectroplated layer 122 that covers thetin 121 and has higher melting point. In this embodiment, the electroplatedlayer 122 is copper. - Refer to
FIG. 2 , while assembling, eachsolder ball 12 is arranged under the receivinghole 100 of the insulatingbody 10 correspondingly and part of thesolder ball 12 is exposed outside the receivinghole 100. In this embodiment, thesolder ball 12 and the receivinghole 100 are assembled by interference fit. Thesolder ball 12 is mated with the wall of the receivinghole 100 tightly and there is no gap therebetween. Then eachconductive terminal 11 is inserted into theelastic body 102 from the top to the bottom and thepress part 111 is stopped at thestopper 1021 of theelastic body 102 while thetail part 112 enters into the corresponding receivinghole 100. At last, thecover 13 is covered over the insulatingbody 10. Thepress part 111 of eachconductive terminal 11 is received in theinsertion hole 131 of thecover 13 and thehead part 110 thereof is exposed outside theinsertion hole 131. Thus the assembling of theelectrical connector 1 is finished. - Refer to
FIG. 3 , while soldering the assembledelectrical connector 1 to thecircuit board 3, eachsolder ball 12 corresponds to a correspondingsolder metal layer 30 of thecircuit board 3. Thesolder metal layer 30 is applied withsolder paste 31. Heat thesolder ball 12 and thesolder paste 31. After heating to a certain temperature, thetin 121 inside thesolder ball 12 becomes melted while the electroplatedlayer 122 covered outside thetin 121 is not melted and broken because the electroplatedlayer 122 on the outer surface of thesolder ball 12 has higher melting point than thetin 121 in thesolder ball 12. After melting thesolder paste 31 onto thecircuit board 3, part of thesolder paste 31 attaches on the electroplatedlayer 122 and some other part adheres to thesolder pad 1010 on the bottom surface of the insulatingbody 10. Thus the climbing of thetin 121 along theconductive terminal 11 caused by a siphon force is reduced and certain anti-siphon effect is achieved. At the same time, soldering area is increased and this favors solder reliability. Furthermore, there is no gap between theelectroplated layer 122 and the receivinghole 100. Thus even a little amount ofsolder paste 31 is not allowed to pass the electroplatedlayer 122 and move upward. The anti-siphon effect is further enhanced. Moreover, even the electroplatedlayer 122 is cracked, the part of the electroplatedlayer 122 located in the receivinghole 100 will not break out. This prevents large amount of tin moving upward and the anti-siphon effect is achieved. - In other embodiments, there may be a gap between the
electroplated layer 122 and the receivinghole 100. Under this condition, part of the meltedsolder paste 31 may pass the gap and move upward but most of thesolder paste 31 is adsorbed by the electroplatedlayer 122 and thesolder pad 1010. In addition, large amount of the meltedtin 121 in thesolder ball 12 is covered and enclosed by the electroplatedlayer 122. Thus the amount of tin that passes the gap and moves upward is quite little. Therefore, the siphon effect is prevented to a certain extent. - Refer to
FIG. 4 , after soldering, thechip module 2 is set on theloading area 130 of thecover 13 to contact with thehead part 110 of eachconductive terminal 11. Press thechip module 2 downwards till against eachhead part 110 and eachpress part 111 rests against thestopper 1021 of theelastic body 102. Thus thestopper 1021 contracts and causes theconductive terminal 11 to move downwards. Due to the step caused by height difference between the side of thestopper 1021 and the other side thereof, thestopper 1021 is used as a support point and thepress part 111 rotates to the side without thestopper 1021. Thetail part 112 of theconductive terminal 11 also rotates to thestopper 1021 and contacts with theconductive layer 101 slantingly so as to form a reliable electrical connection with theconductive layer 101, as shown inFIG. 4 . Moreover, theconductive terminal 11 can not only contact with theconductive layer 101 slantingly by the disposition of thestopper 1021 but also by other ways such as being disposed with a rotating shaft. Furthermore, theconductive terminal 11 can be designed to have the same diameter as that of the receivinghole 100. Thus theconductive terminal 11 is inserted into the receivinghole 100 directly, contacting with each other for electrical conduction. In addition, thestopper 1021 is an elastic body so that an elastic contact between thechip module 2 and eachconductive terminal 11 is achieved. Even there is a certain height difference between theconductive terminals 11, the reliable contact between thechip module 2 and theconductive terminals 11 is still achieved by the elastic deformation of thestopper 1021. - The soldering body in the electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention can also be made from other material such as a metal ball. By soldering the metal ball to the
circuit board 3, the electrical connection between the electrical element and the electrical connector and the circuit board is provided. The purposes and technical effects similar to those of the above embodiment can also be achieved. Yet compared with thetin 121, the metal has a higher hardness so that the insulatingbody 10 is getting easier to have bending deformation. Thus, similar to the above embodiment, the metal ball is disposed withtin 121 or other solders with lower hardness therein. Because thetin 121 is softer, it has less effects on the insulatingbody 10 so that the insulatingbody 10 is not so easy to have bending deformation. Besides ball-shaped, the soldering body can be other shapes such as columnar. - Refer to
FIG. 5 andFIG. 6 , the second embodiment of the electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention is revealed. The difference between this embodiment is in that: theelastic body 102 has a flat top surface and there is a height difference between bottom surfaces on two sides of thepress part 111. The left side bottom surface is lower than the right side bottom surface. After theelectrical connector 1 being assembled and soldered, thechip module 2 is set above thecover 13 and is pressed downward. Then theconductive terminal 11 moves downward, the left side of theelastic body 102 serves as a support point (theelastic body 102 used as a stopper) and thepress part 111 rotates to the right side of theelastic body 102 while thetail part 112 of theconductive terminal 11 rotates to the left side (the bottom surface of thepress part 111 with lower height) and contacts with theconductive layer 101 slantingly so as to electrically connect with theconductive layer 101 precisely and reliably. In other embodiments, the bottom surfaces on two sides of thepress part 111 can be irregular surfaces as long as the two bottom surfaces have height difference. This embodiment achieves similar functions and effects as the above embodiment. - Refer to
FIG. 7 andFIG. 8 , the third embodiment is disclosed. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is in that: the insulatingbody 10 is not disposed with theelastic body 102. In the receivinghole 100, the soldering body is disposed with an elastic rubber block 4 (or other elastic material) stopping against theconductive terminal 11. By therubber block 4, theconductive terminal 11 is elastically contacted with thechip module 2. Moreover, the one side of theconductive terminal 11 that contacts with therubber block 4 is a step-like surface 1120. After theelectrical connector 1 being assembled and soldered, thechip module 2 is put above thecover 13 and is pressed downward. Then theconductive terminal 11 moves downward and presses therubber block 4. Due to the step-like surface of theconductive terminal 11 that contacts with therubber block 4, theconductive terminal 11 slants to one side and contacts with theconductive layer 101 reliably under the reaction force from therubber block 4. In other embodiments, the side of theconductive terminal 11 that contacts with therubber block 4 can be a slope or other surfaces with certain angles as long as it can make theconductive terminal 11 slant to one side while pressing therubber block 4. - As shown in
FIG. 9 andFIG. 10 , the fourth embodiment is revealed. The difference between this embodiment and the above one is in that: aball 5 is disposed between therubber block 4 and theconductive terminal 11. Thereby when theconductive terminal 11 is pressed and contacted by thechip module 2, theconductive terminal 11 can slantingly contact with theconductive layer 101 more easily and reliably. - Moreover, the way of conducting by the connection between the soldering body and the
conductive layer 101 and disposition of theconductive layer 101 as well as the soldering body in the receivinghole 100 in the present invention for replacement of the assembly of the terminal with the solder ball in techniques available now can also be applied to other electrical elements such as chips or circuit boards. - In summary, the electrical element and the electrical connector according to the present invention have following advantages:
- 1. The electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention achieve the electrical conduction between the soldering body and the conductive layer by the conductive layer as well as the soldering body mounted in the receiving hole. There is no need to consider the assembling between the soldering body and the conductive terminal. Thus the errors occurred during manufacturing processes mentioned above are eliminated. That means even there is a height difference among abundant conductive terminals, the flatness of respective soldering body is not affected. The soldering body is not influenced. Thus optimal soldering quality is attained.
- 2. The electrical element and the electrical connector of the present invention are arranged at the bottom surface of the insulating body and the solder pad connecting and conducting with the conductive layer is disposed around the receiving hole. Thus while soldering, part of the melted solder paste is adsorbed on the solder pad so as to prevent the siphon effect to a certain degree.
- Additional advantages and modifications will readily occur to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the invention in its broader aspects is not limited to the specific details, and representative devices shown and described herein. Accordingly, various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the general inventive concept as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
