Definitions
- Some of these labels are of relatively large dimensions, but there is a real tendency to miniatu ⁇ rization, so that these labels can be accommodated discreetly in all kinds of products.
- the current trend is to be able to read the label at a certain distance, which implies the incorporation of a coil for the transmission of signals without contacts.
- the present invention relates to a miniature electronic label where the coil has been replaced by a direct contact access system.
- This electronic label comprising an integrated memory circuit electrically accessible by two interconnection lines, is characterized by the fact that it comprises a metal plate serving as a support, said plate being electrically connected to the first line of interconnection, and comprising an opening through which it is possible to access a contact zone connected at least indirectly to the second interconnection line.
- FIG. 1 shows by way of example a first general execution of an electronic label according to the invention in section and in top view
- FIG. 2 shows, by way of example, some execution details, in section in top view and in two enlarged details
- FIGS. 3 and 4 represent examples of assembly of the label and of objects
- FIG. 5 is a section of a second embodiment
- Figure 6 is a top view of the second embodiment.
- FIG. 1 there is the metal plate 1 of circular shape, with the hole 2 at its center.
- a thin interconnecting interface 2 of the printed circuit type is mounted on said plate.
- an integrated memory circuit 4 is in turn mounted on the printed circuit 3 and fixed by a thread of glue 5. The interconnections between these different elements are given in more detail in FIG. 2.
- the electronic label thus formed can be mounted in a machined 6 or preformed 7 housing according to FIGS. 3 and 4, of any object for which the electronic label is intended.
- This label lends itself particularly well to appli ⁇ cations on metal objects where we can guarantee a certain rigidity of the housing.
- the metal plate can be made of the same metal as that of the housing in which it is to be fixed. So if the housings 6 and 7 are made of gold objects, the plate 1 will also be made of gold. It matters; the choice relates to noble materials such as gold or platinum, because of very strict regulations for obtaining official hallmarks. Furthermore, given the very small dimensions that can be obtained, as a typical example, a diameter of 5 mm for a height of 0.5 mm, this label is particularly discreet.
- FIG. 2 gives details on the possibilities of interconnection between the various elements described in FIG. 1.
- the metal plate 1 with its central hole 2 is recognized, the interconnection interface 3 and the silicon plate 4 of the integrated memory circuit.
- the integrated circuit 4 comprises two interconnection lines, the first connected to a central metallized zone 10, and the second connected to four perionic metallized zones. We can say that these two lines are coaxial.
- the four peripheral zones 11 include four bu ps 12 coming opposite metallized zones on printed circuit 3 connected galvanically to the basic metal plate. It is thus possible to fix the integrated circuit 4 on the interconnection interface 3 by tnermocompression.
- the metal plate 1 is then galvanically connected to the first interconnection line, and it is possible to establish contact with this first interconnection line by means, for example, of a circular contact 15 made of conductive rubber. , pressed against the metal plate. ⁇ _
- the bead of glue 14, produced with non-conductive glue, only serves to ensure the tightness and the solidity of the assembly.
- the interconnection interface 3 has at its center a contact element 16 coming opposite the central metallized zone of the integrated circuit 10.
- a connection interface 3 made of Kapton a material having a certain flexibility, it is possible to establish contact with the metallized zone 10, and thereby with the second interconnection line, by introducing a resistor contact 17 in the hole of the metal plate 2.
- the interconnection interface 3 could be eliminated, and the integrated circuit 4 mounted directly by thermo-compressior. on plate 1.
- o could have direct access with contact 17 to the central metalization 10.
- the integrated circuit would then be in the open air, which is only possible in these particular applications.
- the substrate can be connected to one of the interconnection lines.
- contact between this line and the wafer can be obtained directly by putting a bead 14 of conductive glue, and removing the connection by metallization 11, bumps 12 and zones 13.
- the other elements of the electronic label according to the invention in particular those relating to the characteristics of the memory proper are known to those skilled in the art and are therefore not described in detail.
- Figures 5 and 6 show another embodiment of the label according to the invention.
- the metallic plate 20 is a shaped plate obtained for example by forming. The edge of this plate is folded at 90 degrees so as to form a housing 21 in which the integrated cir ⁇ cooked 4 is mounted in a manner similar to that used in FIG. 2.
- the integrated circuit does not include any central metallization but four pads located at its periphery, the first two 22, 23 being connected to the first interconnection line, and the last two 24, 25 to the second interconnection line.
- the pads 22 and 23 are welded by thermocompression on a printed circuit 26 and connected to a contact area 27 of this printed circuit. This zone this contact can be connected by a drop of conductive adhesive 28 to the wall of the metal plate 2G ⁇ ui is thus thus electrically connected to the first interconnection line.
- the pads 24 and 25, also soldered by tnermocompression on the printed circuit 26 are connected to a central contact area 29 of. printed circuit board.
- This central contact area is located on the two faces of the printed circuit, these two faces being connected for example by a metallized hole. It is thus possible to access the lower part of this contact zone 29 with a painted surface and to connect electrically to the second interconnection line.
- the partially conical shape of the hole 30, the shape of the plate is designed to allow the contact tip to be guided. This particular shape also makes it possible to fix a cover 31 for protecting the contact.
