Definitions

• This invention relates to encapsulation of wirebonds, particularly in inkjet printheads having one more printhead dies connected to a PCB. It has been developed primarily to provide robust chemical and mechanical protection of wirebonds whilst minimizing thermomechanical stresses that may lead to issues, such as die-cracking.
• wirebonds connecting contact pads on a printhead chip (or “printhead die”) and a PCB may be encapsulated using a combination of ‘dam’ encapsulant beads covering contacts pads at opposite ends of the wirebonds and a ‘fill’ encapsulant, which encapsulates wirebonds extending therebetween.
• the dam encapsulant has a relatively higher modulus of elasticity than the fill encapsulant, which provides sufficient control of mechanical stresses to avoid wirebond damage during thermal expansion/contraction of the printhead.
• the primary function of a wirebond encapsulant in an inkjet printhead is to protect wirebonds from ink. If the encapsulant is breached and ink contacts the wirebonds, then the printhead will fail due to electrical shorting. However, it is equally important that the encapsulant itself does not introduce thermo-mechanical stresses in the printhead that can lead to wirebond fracture or die-cracking, either during manufacturing or during normal use via thermal cycling.
• Relatively harder encapsulant materials - that is, encapsulant materials having a relatively high modulus of elasticity - are generally preferable in terms of mechanical and chemical robustness, particularly towards aggressive cosolvents and surfactants found in certain inkjet inks.
• relatively harder encapsulant materials have been found to be necessary to avoid chemical attack.
• those relatively harder materials have a greater tendency to introduce undesirable thermo-mechanical stresses in the printhead.
• the printheads described in US 10,442,200 are quite susceptible to die-cracking during manufacture when a relatively harder ‘fill’ encapsulant is used. This is understood to be a result of the mechanical linkage provided by the encapsulant material between the dies and the PCB.
• An electronic assembly comprising: a substrate; one or more dies mounted on the substrate, each die having a plurality of bond pads; a PCB mounted on the substrate, the PCB having a plurality of contact pads; a plurality of wirebonds interconnecting the bond pads and the contact pads, each wirebond having a first end portion bonded to a respective bond pad, an opposite second end portion bonded to a respective contact pad and an intermediate section extending between the first and second end portions; a dam encapsulant encapsulating each of the first and second end portions, the bond pads and the contact pads; a first fill encapsulant disposed on the substrate so as to contact at least the substrate and the dam encapsulant; and a second fill encapsulant disposed on the first encapsulant so as to contact at least the first fill encapsulant and the dam encapsulant; wherein: the second fill encapsulant does not contact the substrate; at least one of the first and second fill encapsulants encapsulates the intermediate sections of the wirebonds;
• the electronic assembly according to the first aspect advantageously provides robust protection of the wirebonds whilst minimizing thermo-mechanical stresses that potentially lead to die-cracking or wirebond fracture.
• a relatively harder second fill encapsulant provides a mechanically robust and chemically -resistant outer layer while a relatively softer first fill encapsulant weakens the mechanical linkage between the dies and the PCB, such that die-cracking either during manufacture or during normal use is minimized. While the dies and the PCB are not fully mechanically decoupled, the relatively softer first fill encapsulant is sufficient to minimize thermo-mechanical stresses to the extent that die-cracking becomes non-problematic.
• the electronic assembly is a printhead and the dies are printhead chips, such as MEMS printhead chips.
• the substrate is an ink manifold for delivering ink to the printhead chips.
• the ink manifold may be comprised of, for example, a polymer such as liquid crystal polymer or a metal, such as Invar.
• the printhead chips are mounted on the substrate via an intervening shim.
• the shim may, for example, take the form of a double-sided adhesive tape having opposite layers of adhesive disposed on a polymer support, as described in US 7,347,534, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
• the shim may take the form of, for example, a film (e.g. a metal alloy film) adhesively bonded to the substrate, as described in US 10,442,200.
• the shim has ink through-holes defined therein for delivering ink from the ink manifold to the printhead chips.
• the PCB is mounted directly on the substrate, for example, via adhesive bonding.
• the substrate may have a stepped mounting surface for accommodating the PCB.
• the dam encapsulant is configured as perimeter wall having a pair of opposite longer walls covering the contacts pads and the bond pads, respectively, and a pair of shorter walls interconnecting the longer walls at each end thereof.
• the first and second fill encapsulants are disposed within the perimeter wall, such that the dam encapsulant dams a flow of the first and second fill encapsulants during liquid deposition thereof.
• the second fill encapsulant is relatively more resistant to chemical attack than the first fill encapsulant.
• the first fill encapsulant has a modulus of elasticity in the range of 20 to 200 MPa, or preferably 50 to 150 MPa.
• the second fill encapsulant has a modulus of elasticity in the range of 500 to 3000 MPa, or preferably 700 to 2000MPa.
• the dam encapsulant has a modulus of elasticity in the range of 500 to 3000 MPa, or preferably 700 to 2000MPa.
• the second fill encapsulant and the dam encapsulant may be comprised of a same or different materials.
• the dam encapsulant, the first fill encapsulant and the second fill encapsulant are each comprised of epoxy resins.
• Epoxy resin encapsulants having different moduli of elasticity are commercially available from various suppliers (e.g. ResinLab, Chase Corporation, Engineering Materials Systems, Inc. etc.) and will be well known to the person skilled in the art.

• PCB is taken to mean a printed circuit board of the type having a non-conductive substrate and one or more conductive tracks carrying electrical signals.
• the non-conductive substrate may be flexible or rigid.

• the inlet and outlet connectors 7A and 7B are configured for coupling with complementary fluid couplings (not shown) supplying ink to and from the printhead.
• the casing 3 has a first part 3 A and a second part 3B positioned at either side of a central locator 4, the first and second casing parts 3 A and 3B being biased towards each other and the central locator 4 by means of a spring clip 6 engaged therebetween.
• the two-part casing 3 in combination with the spring clip 6 enables the casing to expand longitudinally, at least to some extent, to accommodate a degree of longitudinal expansion in a main body 17 of the printhead 1.
• the printhead 1 receives power and data signals via opposite rows of electrical contacts 13, which extend along respective sidewalls of the printhead.

• An exemplary method for manufacturing an electronic assembly in accordance with the present invention comprises the steps of (1) forming wirebond connections between the bond pads of the die (e.g. printhead chip 70) and contact pads of the PCB (e.g. PCB 18); (2) dispensing a bead of dam encapsulant over the bond pads and contact pads and forming a perimeter wall; (3) curing the dam encapsulant using UV and/or thermal curing; (4) dispensing the first fill encapsulant and flowing within the perimeter wall of dam encapsulant; (5) curing the first fill encapsulant using UV and/or thermal curing; (6) dispensing the second fill encapsulant and flowing within the perimeter wall of dam encapsulant; and (7) curing the second fill encapsulant using UV and/or thermal curing.
