Product features, advantages & benefits (FAB) of 3M™ Pressure Sensitive Cover Tape 2698
Features Advantages Benefits
New blocker
film
Help eliminates the probability of an adhesive wetting
out the surface, and thereby less tendency to attract
an adhesion between 2 material/surfaces
Helps minimize the risk of die stick or wet out
issues on cover tape as a result of adhesive residual
on die surface, helping to improve PnP efficiency at
EMS
Adhesive free
on blocker film
No direct adhesive contact with components Unlike HAA type cover tape, free from concern of
adhesive activation to become stickier under high
heat/temp condition during transportation, virtually
no risk of adhesive contamination and sticking
Surface
resistivity at 10
6
Better ESD protection Discourage small & lightweight die stick incident,
improving PnP efficiency at EMS
Abrasive
resistance
Not easy to scratch or remove the blocker film coating
layer by die edge
Less contamination and assured quality
performance of blocker layer
Longer MPR 600 m a reel instead of 300 m, helps reduce
changeover time
Helps improve customers’ overall taping speed and
efficiency
Flat seal surface
Helps prevent
cover tape dooming which provides
extra headspace
Helps prevent chip tilted/disoriented
/migration
within sealed pockets
3M cover tape 2698 is a recommended product to WLCSP and small component package application given the
differentiated features to complement the increasing popularity of small & thinner size of these components
