The instant invention pertains to a multi-layer tamper proof electronic coating wherein the first layer is a protecting layer produced from a preceramic silicon containing material and at least one filler. The second layer is a resin sealer coat produced from a sealer resin selected from the group consisting of colloidal inorganic-based siloxane resins, benzocyclobutene based resins, polyimide polymers, siloxane polyimides and parylenes. An optional third layer is a cap coating layer selected from SiO.sub.2 coating, SiO.sub.2 /ceramic oxide coating, silicon containing coatings, silicon carbon containing coatings, silicon nitrogen containing coatings, silicon oxygen nitrogen coatings, silicon nitrogen carbon containing coatings and/or diamond like coatings. An optional fourth layer is a resin overcoat produced from an overcoat resin selected from the group consisting of colloidal inorganic-based siloxane resins, benzocyclobutene based resins, polyimide polymers, siloxane polyimides, parylenes, photoresist polymers, siloxane room temperature vulcanizable compositions, or other organic polymer. The use of the multi-layer coating on the electronic device results in an electronic device that is resistant to analytical techniques such as ozone, UV-ozone, gaseous free radicals and ions, vapor or liquid borne reactive species, plasma, abrasion, radiation, light, wet etching and others; moisture; chemicals and other environmental contaminants; shock and erosion, delamination and/or separation.

Electronic coatings

A method of adhering an electronic component to substrate in which a layer of a preceramic polymer is applied between the electronic component and the substrate to which it is to be adhered followed by heating to convert the preceramic polymer into a ceramic. The method forms a strong bond which is not affected by the environment. The method is valuable for adhering integrated circuit chips to carriers or circuit boards.

Use of preceramic polymers as electronic adhesives

The present invention relates to a ceramic coating composition comprising a preceramic material such as silicon oxide precursors, silicon carbonitride precursors, silicon carbide precursors, and silicon nitride precursors and a flux material such as B.sub.2 O.sub.3, PbO.sub.2, P.sub.2 O.sub.5, and Bi.sub.2 O.sub.3. The present invention also relates to a substrate such as an electronic device having said coating applied and ceramified thereon.

A method and composition for joining flip chips back-side-up with respect to substrates by applying an adhesive between the active side of the flip chip and the substrate. The adhesive is a conductive silicone pressure sensitive adhesive containing (i) a silicone resin, (ii) a siloxane gum, (iii) a conductive particulate material, and optionally, (iv) a peroxide catalyst. Suitable conductive particulate materials are silver-clad glass fibers; spherical gold particles; spherical hollow glass microspheres coated with silver, gold, nickel, or copper; or spherical particles of metal alloys of Sn/Cu, Pb/Sn, or Au/Sn. The adhesive can be applied as a ball or bump itself, in conjunction with a solder ball or bump, or in the form of tape sandwiched between the flip chip and substrate.

Flip chip silicone pressure sensitive conductive adhesive

Disclosed is a method of forming opaque coatings on integrated circuits. The method comprises selectively applying a coating of a silica precursor resin and a filler onto the integrated circuit and heating the coated circuit at a temperature sufficient to convert the silica precursor resin to a silica containing ceramic matrix.
