Application Profile
3M Industrial Business
Market: Hand Held Devices
Application Description:  Attaching Flexible Circuit to Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD) or a Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
PRODUCT
3M
Z-Axis Adhesive Films
5352R, 5552R, 5460R and 7303 
Application Method
Heat and pressure bond using hot bar bonder. 
Key Application Requirements
Fine pitch interconnect.
Benefits/Advantages To Customer
Fine pitch interconnection: Bonds to pads as small as 100 mil²; pitch as fine
as 5.5 mils.
High reliability, stable properties: Eliminates solder bridging.  Thermoset
adhesive provides stability of mechanical and electrical properties under many
demanding environmental conditions such as burn-in and thermal cycling tests.
Lead-free, no fluxes, no cleaning: An alternative to lead-based solder
connection; helps reduce cleaning chemicals; helps save processing steps.
Dry film construction: Adhesive supplied on poly release liner for easy
handling; dry assembly using hot-bar reflow bonder.  Ideal for boards with
mixed through-hole surface mount technologies.
Repairable bond: High component utilization which helps reduce scrap, rework
and  helps provide cost and time savings.
Electrically connects and mechanically bonds
flexible printed circuits to the glass substrates of
LCDs
