Hybrid and Substrate
This section describes reliability prediction of a integrated circuit dice mounted in a hybrid package. A hybrid is normally made up of one or more substrate assemblies mounted within a sealed package. Each substrate assembly contains of active and passive chips with thick or thin film metallization mounted on a substrate, which in turn may have multiple layers of metallization and dielectric on the surface.
To model the hybrid device in your product tree, you should:
1. Create Item in the product tree Family: Electronic, Item Code: Hybrid
(no special data needed on the method screen - this screen doesn't exists)
2. Under Hybrid create Substrate (Family: Electronic, Item Code: Substrate) and on the method specific screen enter all information about the substrate.
Note: under one Hybrid user may create more then one Substrate
3. Under Substrate add all components placed on this substrate.
See illustration below for a hybrid structure example:
