An anisotropic conductive film that can be produced in high productivity and can reduce a short circuit occurrence ratio has a first conductive particle layer in which conductive particles are dispersed at a predetermined depth in a film thickness direction, and a second conductive particle layer in which conductive particles are dispersed at a depth different from that in the first conductive particle layer. In the respective conductive particle layers, the closest distances between the adjacent conductive particles are 2 times or more the average particle diameters of the conductive particles.

A method for soldering a surface-mount component onto a circuit board. The melting of die-bonding solder material is prevented by using a mounting solder material when soldering a surface-mount component formed using the die-bonding solder material onto a printed circuit board. The surface-mount component, formed using (SnSb)-based solder material having high melting point, the (SnSb)-based solder material containing Cu but not more than a predetermined quantity of Cu constituent and a main ingredient thereof being Sn, is soldered on a board terminal portion of a circuit board using (SnAgCuBi)-based solder material or (SnAgCuBiIn)-based solder material as the mounting solder material and with the solder material being applied on the terminal portion. Since solidus temperature of the die-bonding solder material is 243 degrees C. and liquidus temperature of the mounting solder material is about 215 through 220 degrees C., the melting of die-bonding solder material is prevented even at the heating temperature (240 degrees C. or less) of a reflow furnace.

In an embodiment, a device includes: a first redistribution structure including a first dielectric layer; a die adhered to a first side of the first redistribution structure; an encapsulant laterally encapsulating the die, the encapsulant being bonded to the first dielectric layer with first covalent bonds; a through via extending through the encapsulant; and first conductive connectors electrically connected to a second side of the first redistribution structure, a subset of the first conductive connectors overlapping an interface of the encapsulant and the die.

A microelectronic assembly includes a first substrate having a surface and a first conductive element and a second substrate having a surface and a second conductive element. The assembly further includes an electrically conductive alloy mass joined to the first and second conductive elements. First and second materials of the alloy mass each have a melting point lower than a melting point of the alloy. A concentration of the first material varies in concentration from a relatively higher amount at a location disposed toward the first conductive element to a relatively lower amount toward the second conductive element, and a concentration of the second material varies in concentration from a relatively higher amount at a location disposed toward the second conductive element to a relatively lower amount toward the first conductive element.

The melting of die-bonding solder material is prevented even when soldering a surface-mount component formed using the die-bonding solder material on a printed circuit board using a mounting solder material. The surface-mount component formed using (SnSb)-based solder material having high melting point as the solder material for die pad, the (SnSb)-based solder material containing Cu not more than a predetermined quantity of Cu constituent and a main ingredient thereof being Sn, is soldered on a board terminal portion of a circuit board using (SnAgCuBi)-based solder material as the mounting solder material with the solder material being applied on the terminal portion.
