... in a steady state. Taking the temperature field in the chip and substrate as the heat source, we solve the thermal stress field in the chip and substrate by using the technique of Fourier’s series expansion. The effects of geometric parameters of the chip and substrate on thermal stresses are analyzed. From...

... specified over specific regions of the package. The basis of the solution is a general three-dimensional Fourier series solution which satisfies the conduction equation within each layer of the package. The application of boundary conditions at the fluid-solid, package-board and layer-layer interfaces...
