The reinforced lead-free Sn-Bi solder was prepared by thoroughly blending the nanometer-sized SAC particles into the eutectic Sn-Bi solder paste. The SAC reinforced Sn-Bi composite solder paste was printed onto ENIG/Cu metalized substrate and reflowed in a conventional reflow oven. After reflow, the morphology of the as-solidified reinforced composite solder was observed by means of SEM and TEM. The Vickers microhardness measurements indicated that the addition of SAC nano-particles enhances the overall strength of the eutectic solder, and the results agree well with the theory of dispersion strengthening.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"86 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85382578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of delamination of a laminate structure with a crack along the interface is central to the characterization of interfacial toughness. Due to the mismatch in mechanical properties of the materials adjacent to the interface and also possible asymmetry of loading and geometry, usually the crack propagates under mixed mode conditions. The present study deals with delamination toughness measurements of an epoxy molding compound - copper lead frame interface as directly obtained from a real production process. As a consequence the specimen dimensions are relatively small and therefore a dedicated small-size test set-up was designed and fabricated. The test setup allows transferring two separated loadings (mode I and mode II) on a single specimen. The setup is flexible and adjustable for measuring specimens with various dimensions. For measurements under various temperatures and moisture conditions, a special climate chamber is designed. The ldquocurrent crack lengthrdquo is required for the interpretation of measurement results through FEM-fracture mechanics simulations. Therefore, during testing the ldquocurrent crack lengthrdquo is captured using a CCD camera and a micro deformation analysis system (MicroDac). The critical fracture properties are obtained by interpreting the experimental results through dedicated finite element modeling.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"54 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91297969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Melting point tests were carried out with DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) instrument. Wettability tests were conducted on a wetting balance instrument. Test results of the two new solders were compared with that of Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu respectively to study the effects of the adding elements on the melting point and wettability of the low-Ag Pb-free solder. It shows that Bi addition has striking positive effects on decreasing the melting point and improving wettability. Ni addition could improve the wettability as well, although not as much as Bi does. And Ni has a negative effect on melting point. With proper adding amount as X=3.0, Bi could significantly improve the wettability and decrease melting point at the same time. However, too much Bi addition could increase the melting range between liquidus and solidus, which may lead to the initiation of solidification crack of the solder joints.","PeriodicalId":6324,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology & High Density Packaging","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89043495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The trend is Alq3 layer decrease and LiF layer increase in the process of failure.
