Wettability is an important factor to decide solderability of solder, flux, other soldering-related materials and soldering conditions. The wettability also affects the reliability of solder joint. Wetting balance test is a good method for quantitatively measuring wettability between solder and substrate. The wetting balance test is easy to reproduce the wetting experiment and to measure the wetting time and force. And this test provides wetting curve to calculate the surface tension of the molten solder. Development of new solder has been continued in accordance with various and harsh environment in the electronics industry. In this paper, the principle of wetting balance test and recent research issues including nano-composite solder are explained.

전기 소자 중의 하나인 퓨즈는 전기 부품에 비정상적으로 흐르게 되는 과전류로 인한 전로나 기기 보호를 위하여 사용 및 개발되고 있다. 대표적인 형태로는 유리관퓨즈가 많이 사용 되고 있는데, 최근 납이 함유된 솔더의 사용에 대한 국내 및 국제 규제가 강화 되면서 무연 솔더로의 변경으로 인한 문제가 대두 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유리관퓨즈의 솔더링 공정에서 솔더를 기존의 납이 함유된 솔더에서 무연 솔더로 변경 한 후, 퓨즈캡을 가용체와 솔더링할 때 용융된 솔더가 퓨즈 바깥으로 넘쳐흐르는 현상을 수치해석으로 모사하였고, 해석 결과를 바탕으로 솔더의 넘침 현상을 막을 수 있는 방안을 찾아 그 효과를 검증하였다. 검증 결과, 솔더링 실시 전에 유리관 내부의 온도를 충분히 증가시키는 것이 솔더의 넘침을 예방하는데 도움이 되며, 중력이 솔더가 흘러나가는 반대방향으로 작용하도록 솔더링을 하게 되면 넘침을 막는 데 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.

This paper reviews our recent research works on the interconnection technologies in electronic packaging and assembly. At the aspect of advanced joining methods, laser-ultrasonic fluxless soldering technology was proposed. The characteristic of this technology is that the oxide film was removed through the vibration excitated by high frequency laser change in the molten solder droplet. Application researches of laser soldering technology on solder bumping of BGA packages were carried out. Furthermore, interfacial reaction between SnPb eutectic solder and Au/Ni/Cu pad during laser reflow was analyzed. At the aspect of soldered joints' reliability, the system for predicting and analyzing SMT solder joint shape and reliability(PSAR) has been designed. Optimization design method of soldered joints' structure was brought forward after the investigation of fatigue failure of RC chip devices and BGA packages under temperature cyclic conditions with FEM analysis and experimental study. At the aspect of solder alloy design, alloy design method based on quantum was proposed. The macroproperties such as melting point, wettability and strength were described by the electron parameters. In this way, a great deal of the experimental investigations was replaced, so as to realize the design and research of any kinds of solder alloys with low cost and high efficiency.

During the reflow process in SMT, the molten solder has been observed to move upward and solidify along the gullwing lead, which is called the wicking phenomenon. In this paper, possible causes of the wicking are investigated, and its effects on the solder joint profile are quantitatively estimated by introducing the wicking constant. The free energy reduction by intermetallic formation between the copper and tin seems to be the major source of wicking action. The joint profiles of the gullwing lead are calculated using the previous finite element formulation incorporated with the wicking constant. The calculated results show reasonably good agreements with the experimental data when the wicking effects are considered.

With the contact pad consisted of $0.5{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ $Au/5{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ Ni/Cu layers on a conventional ball grid array(BGA) substrate, metallurgical reaction properties between the pad and In-15(wt.%)Pb-5Ag solder alloy were studied after reflow and solid aging. In as-reflow condition, thin AuIn$_2$or Ni$_{28}$In$_{72}$ intermetallic layer was formed at the solder/pad interface according to reflow time. Dissolution of the Au layer into the molten solder was remarkably limited in comparison with eutectic Sn-37Pb alloy. After solid aging of 300 hrs, thickness of In-Ni layer increased to about $2{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in the both as-reflow case. It was observed that In atoms diffuse through the AuIn$_2$phase to react with underlaying Ni layer. The metallurgical reaction properties between In-l5Pb-7Ag alloy and Au/Ni surface finish were analysed to result in suppression of Au-embrittlement in the solder joints.

In this study, in order to obtain a high reflectivity for the LED lead frame, tin dip coating and tin plating were conducted respectively, and wettability of LED lead frame with tin solder also was tested by wetting balance tester. A Cu sheet was plated in Cu brighten electroplating bath and followed by immersion in a Sn electro-less plating bath [1]. On the other hand, in the dip coating process, a Cu sheet was dipped into molten tin. In the progress of wetting test, besides wetting balance curve, the maximum measured force($F_m$), the maximum withdrawal force($F_w$) and zero-cross time($t_0$) were obtained in various temperatures. With the maximum withdrawal force, the surface tension was calculated at different temperatures. The Cu sheet plated with bright Cu and Sn show a silver bright property while that of Cu dipped with Sn possessed a high reflectance density of 1.34GAM at $270^{\circ}C$.

The effect of flip chip bonding parameters on formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) between Au stud bumps and Sn-3.5Ag solder was investigated. In this study, flip chip bonding temperature was performed at $260^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$ with various bonding times of 5, 10, and 20 sec. AuSn, $AuSn_2$ and $AuSn_4$ IMCs were formed at the interface of joints and (Au, Cu)$_6Sn_5$ IMC was observed near Cu pad side in the joint. At bonding temperature of $260^{\circ}C$, $AuSn_4$ IMC was dominant in the joint compared to other Au-Sn IMCs as bonding time increased. At bonding temperature of $300^{\circ}C$, $AuSn_2$ IMC clusters, which were surrounded by $AuSn_4$ IMC, were observed in the solder joint due to fast diffusivity of Au to molten solder with increased bonding temperature. Bond strength of Au stud bump joined with Sn-3.5Ag solder was about 23 gf/bump and fracture mode of the joint was intergranular fracture between $AuSn_2$ and $AuSn_4$ IMCs regardless bonding conditions.
