`
`MECHANICAL HANDLING CONSIDERATIONS
`FOR LED DEVICES
`
`The first stage in designing a circuit utilizing <m
`optoelectronic device is selecting the proper device for the
`application. The second step is to establish the electrical
`operating conditions and design the circuit. The third step
`is to install the optoelectronic device into the physical
`assembly, be
`it a printed circuit board, front panel
`mounting or some other mounting arrangement. The
`mounting considerations are primarily mechanical
`in
`nature, requiring attention to such items as the similarity of
`LED packages, the bending of leads, silver plated lead
`frames, soldering and post solder cleaning, socket mounting
`and heat sinking if required. Reliable operation of the LED
`device
`is more positively assured when all of these
`mechanical considerations have been given careful
`attention.

`
`Similarity in LED Packages
`
`PRINTED CIRCUIT
`METALLIZATION
`
`Most plastic encapsulated LED devices are assembled using
`the
`lead frame
`technology. The exceptions are some
`stretched segment display devices which are assembled on
`substrates. Independent of the lead frame or package
`design, a lead frame device has the LED die attached
`directly to one lead and wire bonded across to another lead
`as shown in Figure 9.1-1.
`'
`
`The primary thermal path to the LED is the cathode lead.
`Any mechanical and thermal stress applied to the leads is
`transmitted directly to the LED, die attach and wire bonds.
`The plastic encapsulant forms the device package and is the
`only supporting element for the lead frame. Therefore, the
`integrity of the encapsulation must be maintained to insure
`throughout its
`reliable operation of the LED device
`expected operating life.
`
`Devices that do not use an encapsulating epoxy are most
`likely assembled on a ceramic substrate. Thick film
`metallization is usually applied to the face of the substrate.
`The LED is die attached to one metallization pad and wire
`bonded across to another pad, as shown in Figure 9.1-2.
`The circuit metallization is the primary thermal path from
`the LED to the leads, and the substrate acts as a secondary
`thermal path to the external ambient. The substrate isolates
`the LEDs and wire bonds from mechanically applied
`stresses; the amount of isolation dependent upon the type
`of substrate and package configuration. Devices of this
`construction are mechanically more rugged than a plastic
`encapsulated device and are more tolerant of temperature
`extremes.
`
`One other type of device is assembled on a TO header, such
`as the high-reliability LED lamp which is packaged on a

`
`The Bending of Leads
`
`In many LED lamp applications, it is necessary to bend the
`leads in order to mount the lamp at some angle other than
`90° to the surface of a PC board. The leads of a lamp may
`be easily bent without introducing mechanical stresses
`inside
`the plastic package. The proper procedure for
`bending leads is illustrated in Figure 9.2-1. Bend the leads
`prior to soldering. Firmly grip the leads at the base of the
`lamp package with a pair of needle nose pliers. The pliers
`form a mechanical ground to absorb the stresses when
`bending. Bend the leads, one at a time, to the angle desired.
`
`9.3
`
`The Silver Plated Lead Frame
`
`Since the price of gold has increased several times during
`the past few years, the cost of a gold plated lead frame has
`increased substantially, necessitating the search for an
`alternative. The impact of this cost increase has been
`industry wide. Many plating material alternatives were
`examined, and silver plating offered most of the desired
`propertie,s of gold, while remaining price competitive when
`compared to other materials.

`
`By using silver plating, no additional manufacturing process
`steps are required. Silver has excellent electrical
`conductivity. LED die attach and wire bonding to a silver
`lead frame is accomplished with the same reliability as with
`a gold lead frame. Also, soldering to a silver lead frame
`provides a reliable electrical and mechanical solder joint_
`Soldering silver plated lead frame LED devices into a
`printed circuit board is no more complicated than soldering
`LED devices with gold plated lead frames.
`
`9.3.1 The Silver Plating
`
`The silver plating process is performed as follows: the lead
`frame base metal is cleaned and then plated with a copper
`strike, nominally 50 microinches (0.00127 mm) thick.
`Then a 150 microinch (0.00381 mm) thick plating of silver
`is added. A "brightener" is usually added to the silver
`plating bath to insure an optimum surface texture to the
`silver plating. The term "brightener" comes from the
`medium bright surface reflectance of the silver plate. Figure
`9.3.1-1 illustrates the metallographic cross-section of the
`silver plating system as it would appear with a 1200X
`magnification.
`
`150 ,uinch
`MINIMUM
`SILVER
`PLATING
`
`Since silver is porous with respect to oxygen, the copper
`strike acts as an oxygen barrier for the lead frame base
`metal. Thus, oxide compounds of the base metal are
`prevented from forming underneath the silver plating.
`Copper is miscible and readily diffuses into silver to form a
`solution that has a low eutectic point. This inter-diffusion
`between the copper strike and the silver overplate improves
`the solderability of the overall plating system. If basic
`soldering time and temperature limits are not exceeded, a
`lead frame base metal-copper-silver-solder metallurgical
`system will be obtained.
`
`9.3.2 The Effect of Tarnish
`
`Silver resists attack by most dry and moist atmospheres,
`such as carbon monoxide or high temperature steam.
`Halogen gases do attack silver, however, once the initial
`ftlm layer is formed the process does not continue.
`
`Silver reacts chemically with sulfur to form tarnish, silver
`sulfide (Ag2S). The build-up of tarnish is the primary
`reason for poor solderability. However, the density of the
`tarnish and the kind of solder flux used actually determine
`the solderability. As the density o
