Effect of microstructural variability on fatigue simulations of solder joints
The objective of this work is to develop a microstructure-based simulation approach to assess the fatigue life of solder joints that are used by the microelectronics industry. The developed approach can generate solder joints with random grain morphologies by means of 3D Voronoi tessellation. The anisotropic material behavior of each grain is described by the Garofalo creep equation combined with Hill's definition of the equivalent stress for anisotropic materials. Grain boundaries are implemented as interface elements, with an isotropic creep constitutive model. The stochastic variability in the creep response of solder joints was qualitatively estimated by generating 100 unique solder joints containing 5 to 9 grains, each having a random material orientation. These joints were independently loaded with a realistic stress level for microelectronic products during thermal cycling. The volume-averaged creep strain energy density in the solder joints was used to predict the fatigue life of the solder joints. The results showed a factor of ~4 difference in expected lifetime of the individual solder joints. Next, nine randomly picked solder joints from the above-mentioned pool of 100 were sandwiched between a silicon die and a printed circuit board to form a simulation model of a Wafer-Level Chip-Scale package (WLCSP). The creep strain energy density in the joints was computed for 34 unique cases of the WLCSP. A factor of ~2.5 between the highest and lowest estimate for the solder joint life was found. The slope of the corresponding Weibull distribution equals ~6, which falls within the slopes typical reported for solder joint reliability of WLCSPs.
期刊介绍:
Microelectronics Reliability, is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results and related information on the reliability of microelectronic devices, circuits and systems, from materials, process and manufacturing, to design, testing and operation. The coverage of the journal includes the following topics: measurement, understanding and analysis; evaluation and prediction; modelling and simulation; methodologies and mitigation. Papers which combine reliability with other important areas of microelectronics engineering, such as design, fabrication, integration, testing, and field operation will also be welcome, and practical papers reporting case studies in the field and specific application domains are particularly encouraged.
Most accepted papers will be published as Research Papers, describing significant advances and completed work. Papers reviewing important developing topics of general interest may be accepted for publication as Review Papers. Urgent communications of a more preliminary nature and short reports on completed practical work of current interest may be considered for publication as Research Notes. All contributions are subject to peer review by leading experts in the field.
