However, this requires much progress on the fabrication and high-quality point-contact bonding processes of the microchannel substrate and 3D manifold DBCs. In this study, we have developed processing techniques for surface preparations and high-quality point-contact solder bonding between the two DBC substrates. We utilized chemical polishing followed by electroless plating to prevent excess solder from blocking the microchannels. We performed a parametric study to investigate the impact of bonding time and surface roughness on the tensile strength of the bonding interface. The bonding strength increased from 1.8 MPa to 2.3 MPa as the bonding time increased from 10 to 30 minutes while reducing the surface roughness from Rz = 0.21 to 0.05 µm, resulting in increasing the bonding strength from 0.16 MPa to 2.07 MPa. We successfully tested the microcooler up to the inlet pressure of 70 kPa and pressure drop of 30 kPa, which translates to the tensile strength at the bonding point contacts, which remains well below the 2.30 MPa. We achieved the junction-to-coolant thermal resistance of 0.2 cm2-K/W at chip heat flux of 590 W/cm2. Thus, our study provides an important proof-of-concept demonstration towards enabling high power density modules for power conversion applications.","PeriodicalId":15663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Packaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42458114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Creep and fatigue processes were the most common causes of failure in electronic assemblies. Under isothermal aging, creep deformation becomes more prominent. The aged microstructure was recognized by intermetallic coarsening and the appearance of intergranular fracture generated by dynamic recrystallization in the bulk solder joint. In this study, the influence of Bi content on the creep behaviors of solder joints was investigated under various aging conditions. Three lead-free solder alloys, including SAC305, SAC-3Bi, and SAC-6Bi, are tested at room temperature. For each alloy, preliminary micro-indentation tests were conducted to define three stress levels for distinct aging conditions. After each test, displacement vs. time data was gathered. A novel approach based on an empirical model was developed to systematically examine the development of the steady state creep rate. A power dependency prediction model was developed to investigate the relationship between creep strain rate and stress levels. The steady-state creep rate of SAC305 is significantly higher than that of SAC-Bi alloys owing to the presence of bismuth (Bi) in the solid solution at room temperature. The creep properties showed less variation after 100 hours of aging. SAC-Bi alloys showed less coarsening of the IMC precipitates after aging than SAC305. In the SAC-Bi solder alloys, combinations of precipitate and solid solution hardening mechanisms were observed, while Ag3Sn particles were the dominant strengthening mechanism in the SAC305 alloy system.","PeriodicalId":15663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Packaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45946068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Temperatures in the vehicle underhood applications can range from -65 to +200 °C. Lead-free solder materials continue to evolve under varying thermal workloads. Material characteristics may deteriorate if operating conditions are harsh or heavy. Nonetheless, lead-free solders are susceptible to high strains, which can lead to electronic device failure. A better understanding of solder alloys is needed to ensure reliable operation in harsh environments. New doped solder alloys have recently been created by adding Ni, Co, Au, P, Ga, Cu, and Sb to SnAgCu (SAC) solder alloys to improve mechanical, thermal, and other qualities. SAC-Q has recently been made using Sn-Ag-Cu and the addition of Bi (SAC+Bi). It was discovered that adding dopants to SAC alloys may enhance mechanical characteristics and reduce aging damage. There is no published data on SAC solder alloys after prolonged storage at high strain rates and low functioning temperatures. The materials characterization of SAC (SAC105 and SAC-Q) solder after extended storage at low working temperatures (-65°C-0 °C) and high strain rates (10-75 per sec) is investigated in this article. To characterize the material constitutive behavior, the Anand Viscoplastic model was utilized to derive 9 Anand parameters from recorded Tensile data. The generated 9 Anand parameters were used to validate the Anand model's reliability. A strong correlation was established between experimental data and Anand's predicted data. The Anand parameters were used in a FE framework to simulate drop events for a ball-grid array package on printed circuit board assembly to calculate hysteresis loop and plastic work density. The plastic work per shock event measures the damage progression of the solder interconnects. Thermal aging effects have been studied in terms of the hysteresis loop and the evolution of PWD.","PeriodicalId":15663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Packaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45344709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although jet impingement has received attention for power electronics thermal management, it is not used in commercial electric vehicles (EVs) because of the associated pressure drop and reliability concerns. In this paper, we present a modular thermal management system designed for automotive power electronics. The system achieves superior thermal performance to benchmarked EVs, while adhering to reliability standards and with low pumping power. The system utilizes a low-cost and lightweight plastic manifold to generate jets over an optimized heat sink, which is embedded in the direct-bonded-copper (DBC) substrate. The embedded heat sink concept leverages additive manufacturing to add elliptical pin fins to the DBC substrate. The heat sink geometry is optimized for submerged jet impingement using a unit-cell model and an exhaustive search algorithm. The model predictions are validated using unit-cell experiments. A full-scale power module model is then used to compare the DBC-embedded heat sink against direct DBC cooling and baseplate-integrated heat sinks for single-sided (SS) and double-sided (DS) cooling concepts. Using the SS and DS DBC-embedded cooling concepts, the models predict a thermal resistance that represents a reduction of 75% and 85% compared to the 2015 BMW i3, respectively, for the same water-ethylene glycol inverter flow rate. We have shown that an inverter with a 100-kilo-Watt-per-liter power density is achievable with the proposed design.","PeriodicalId":15663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Packaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47551616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study employs the continuous dislocation model to determine the stress field caused by interfacial mass diffusion that exists within and outside of the copper line. Apart from the anticipated tensile or compressive stress on the cathode or anode side, an anomalous stress singularity is identified at the interface between the dielectric layer and the anode end of the copper line. This singular stress distribution leads to cracking in the compressive portion of the dielectric layer at the anode end under the influence of electromigration. The theoretical predictions are in good agreement with experimental data, and a novel failure criterion akin to the stress intensity factor in fracture mechanics is formulated.","PeriodicalId":15663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Packaging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46468616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
