[0063] An embodiment of this application provides an electronic device. The electronic device may be a server or a data center, may be a mobile phone, a pad, a smart wearable product (for example, a smartwatch or a smart band), a virtual reality (VR) device, or an augmented reality (AR) device, or may be a home appliance, or the like. A specific form of the electronic device is not specially limited in embodiments of this application.

[0071] Refer to
[0072] A detailed structure of the reinforcement structure 7 and a produced effect thereof are described below.
[0073]
[0074]
[0075] The electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 may be disposed on at least one of the first surface A1, the second surface A2, the inner surface A3, and the outer surface A4 of the support frame 71. For example,
[0076] Because the reinforcement structure 7 includes the support frame 71, when the reinforcement structure 7 is arranged along the periphery of the chip package structure 2, a force is applied to the PCB 1, so that degrees of warpage of the chip package structure 2 and the PCB 1 can be suppressed, thermal deformation thereof is reduced, a risk of crack in a BGA is reduced, and a qualification rate of the electronic device is improved.
[0077] In addition, because the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is disposed on the at least one surface of the support frame 71, after being radiated to the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72, an electromagnetic wave radiated by the chip package structure 2 is suppressed by the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72, to reduce radiation noise of the electromagnetic wave of the chip package structure.
[0078] Therefore, the reinforcement structure 7 integrated on the PCB 1 provided in embodiments of this application has both a function of suppressing warpage of the PCB 1 and the chip package structure 2 and a function of suppressing electromagnetic wave radiation. To be specific, one structure has two functions, and especially has high use performance for structures in
[0079] The reinforcement structure 7 is fastened relative to the PCB 1. For example, as shown in
[0080] When the reinforcement structure 7 is fastened to the PCB 1 by the fastener, to avoid warpage of the PCB 1 caused by fastening of the fastener, connection positions between the fastener and the PCB 1 may be symmetrically arranged with respect to a center of the PCB 1.
[0081] The support frame 71 has a plurality of different structures. For example, as shown in
[0082] In addition, the support frame 71 may also be shown in
[0083] It is to be noted that when the foregoing spacing d is a quarter of the wavelength corresponding to the frequency of the electromagnetic wave to be suppressed, the spacing d may be completely equal to a quarter of the wavelength corresponding to the frequency of the electromagnetic wave to be suppressed, or the spacing d may be close to a quarter of the wavelength corresponding to the frequency of the electromagnetic wave to be suppressed.
[0084] Several different structures of the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 are provided below.
[0085] In some implementations, the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 includes a wave-absorbing layer made of an electromagnetic wave-absorbing material. The electromagnetic wave-absorbing material is a type of material that can absorb energy of an electromagnetic wave emitted to a surface thereof, for example, a rubber-based wave-absorbing material, a resin-based wave-absorbing material, or a foam-based wave-absorbing material.
[0086] In some other implementations, the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 may include a shield layer made of an electromagnetic shielding material. The electromagnetic shielding material is a type of material that can perform metal isolation between two spatial areas, to control induction and radiation of an electric field, a magnetic field, and an electromagnetic wave from one area to another area, for example, a conductive sponge, a conductive adhesive strip, or a shielding spring sheet.
[0087] When the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is the wave-absorbing layer, the wave-absorbing layer may be adhered to the support frame 71 by a bonding layer. Alternatively, the electromagnetic shielding material may be coated on the support frame and cured to form the wave-absorbing layer on the support frame.
[0088] When the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is the wave-absorbing layer or the shield layer, a cross-section of the wave-absorbing layer or the shield layer may be of a rectangular structure shown in
[0089] In some other implementations,
[0090] An electromagnetic radiation suppression principle in
[0091] Shielding against different resonance frequencies can be implemented by changing the inductance value L and the capacitance value C. During specific implementation, the inductance or the capacitance can be changed by changing sizes (for example, heights and cross-sectional areas) of the metal posts or by changing a spacing between two adjacent metal posts 82.
[0092] In some implementations, to suppress electromagnetic signals of a plurality of resonance frequencies, heights and cross-sectional areas of the plurality of metal posts 82 or the spacing between two adjacent metal posts may be set to be different, so that a plurality of resonance points can be generated. In this way, electromagnetic radiation suppression of a plurality of frequency bands or a wide frequency band can be formed.
[0093]
[0094]
[0095] Compared with the electromagnetic radiation suppression structures shown in
[0096] The electromagnetic radiation suppression structures shown in
[0097] During preparation of the electromagnetic radiation suppression structures shown in
[0098]
[0099] Refer to
[0100] The support frame 71 may be made of a metal material, for example, copper or iron, or may be made of a non-metal resin material.
[0101] When the support frame is made of a metal material, the metal support frame has a function of blocking an electromagnetic wave. In this way, the metal support frame 71 is combined with the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72, so that an electromagnetic wave radiation suppression effect can be further enhanced. Especially, when the chip package structure has a large height, and a distance between a heat sink and a PCB is long, the combined metal support frame and the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 has a better electromagnetic suppression effect and a good warpage suppression effect.
[0102]
[0103] In
[0104] In
[0105] In
[0106] In
[0107] In
[0108] Certainly, the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 may be arranged on another combination of the inner surface, the outer surface, the first surface, and the second surface.
[0109] When the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure is disposed on different surfaces of the support frame 71, electromagnetic waves are suppressed in different directions to improve a suppression effect.
[0110] Generally, a metal wiring is formed on a surface that is of the PCB 1 and that is used for carrying the chip package structure 2. When the support frame 71 is made of a metal material, to avoid an electrical connection between the support frame 71 and the metal wiring on the surface of the PCB 1. Refer to
[0111] However, generally, the insulation layer 2 is made of a material, for example, polycarbonate or epoxy resin. These insulation materials have no electromagnetic radiation suppression function. In this way, space filled with the insulation layer 9 between the support frame 71 and the PCB 1 becomes a path along which an electromagnetic wave is radiated outside. To cut off the path, in
[0112] In
[0113] In
[0114] Refer to
[0115] In addition, compared with
[0116] In some other implementations, a concave cavity may be formed in the second surface of the support frame 71 close to the heat sink 5, and the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is disposed in the concave cavity. For example, when a wave-absorbing material is selected for the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 located in the concave cavity, a gap may be allowed between the heat sink 5 and the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72. In another example, when an electromagnetic shielding material is selected for the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 located in the concave cavity, the heat sink 5 needs to abut against the electromagnetic radiation suppression 72, so that the chip package structure 2 is located in a shielding cavity.
[0117] To further improve an electromagnetic radiation suppression effect, a height of the reinforcement structure is larger than or equal to a height of the chip package structure, and the height is a size in a direction from the first surface to the second surface. In this way, as shown in
[0118] When the support frame 71 is made of a metal material, and the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is made of an electromagnetic shielding material, the formed closed cavity is a closed shielding cavity. In this way, an electromagnetic wave radiated by the chip package structure 2 is completely blocked in the shielding cavity, and the electromagnetic wave is kept from being radiated to the outside of the electronic device.
[0119] Certainly, when the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 is made of the wave-absorbing material, the chip package structure 2 may be located in a closed cavity defined by the reinforcement structure, the heat sink, and the printed circuit board. In this way, a leakage path of an electromagnetic wave can also be reduced, and an electromagnetic wave radiation suppression effect can be improved.
[0120] When an elastic electromagnetic shield layer or an electromagnetic wave-absorbing layer is selected for the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72, as shown in
[0121] In this way, when a reliability risk test such as a package drop test is performed on the structure, because the heat sink 5 abuts against the elastic electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72, the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure 72 may have a buffering effect for the heat sink 5, to keep the heat sink 5 from causing a large impact on the chip package structure 2, thereby protecting the chip package structure 2.
[0122] In
[0123] It can be learned from the foregoing several example reinforcement structures that, when the reinforcement structure is disposed on the PCB and on a periphery of the chip package structure, according to a suppression frequency band of electromagnetic noise obtained through analysis, a height of the support frame may be determined, and a surface that is of the support frame and on which the electromagnetic radiation suppression structure is to be disposed may be determined, to suppress an electromagnetic wave in a frequency band of electromagnetic waves to be suppressed.
[0124] When the structure shown in
[0125] In the descriptions of this specification, the described specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in a proper manner in any one or more of embodiments or examples.
[0126] The foregoing descriptions are merely specific implementations of this application, but are not intended to limit the protection scope of this application. Any variation or replacement readily figured out by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application shall fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this application shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
