Abstract

Electroplating technology is widely used in semiconductor microelectronic industry. With the development of semiconductor integrated circuit to high density and light-small scale, Extremely high quality and plated uniformity of the deposited metals are needed. Simulation technique can help to obtain better plating results. Although a few plating simulation softwares have been commercialized, plating simulation is not widely prevalent in Korea. In this paper, principle of electroplating and mathematical modeling of plating simulation are discussed. Also introduced are some cases enhancing plating thickness uniformity on leadframe, PCB and wafer by using plating simulation.
