    Study Notes

    IC Package Function

    • Protects integrated circuits from physical damage and environmental factors.
    • Provides a means for electrical connections to the circuit board.
    • Assists in heat dissipation, maintaining optimal operating temperatures for the IC.

    Materials Used for IC Packaging

    • Commonly utilized materials include epoxy resins and ceramic compounds.
    • Silicone is often used for encapsulation due to its moisture resistance and durability.

    RoHS in IC Packaging

    • RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances.
    • A directive aimed at limiting the use of certain hazardous materials in electronic products, including lead and mercury.

    Types of Semiconductors

    • Silicon and Germanium are classified as elemental semiconductors.
    • These materials are fundamental for the manufacture of various electronic components.

    Moore's Law Predictions

    • Primarily forecasts the doubling of transistor density on integrated circuits approximately every two years.
    • Impacts the performance, power efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of electronic devices.
