The reactions between a Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder alloy and electroless Ni/electroless Pd/immersion Au (ENEPIG) surface finishes with various Pd layer thicknesses (0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, $0.4{\mu}m$) were examined for the effect of the Pd layer on the massive spalling of the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ layer during reflow at $235^{\circ}C$. The thin layer deposition of an electroless Pd (EP) between the electroless Ni ($7{\mu}m$) and immersion Au ($0.06{\mu}m$) plating on the Cu substrate significantly retarded the massive spalling of the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ layer during reflow. Its retarding effect increased with an increasing EP layer thickness. When the EP layer was thin (${\leq}0.1{\mu}m$), the retardation of the massive spalling was attributed to a reduced growth rate of the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ layer and thus to a lowered consumption rate of Cu in the bulk solder during reflow. However, when the EP layer was thick (${\geq}0.2{\mu}m$), the initially dissolved Pd atoms in the molten solder resettled as $(Pd,Ni)Sn_4$ precipitates near the solder/$(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ interface with an increasing reflow time. Since the Pd resettlement requires a continuous Ni supply across the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ layer from the Ni(P) substrate, it suppressed the formation of $(Ni,Cu)_3Sn_4$ at the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5/Ni(P)$ interface and retarded the massive spalling of the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ layer.

Since lead (Pb)-free solders for electronics have higher melting points than that of eutectic Sn-Pb solder, they need higher soldering temperatures. In order to decrease the soldering temperature we tried to coat Sn-Bi layer on $Sn-3.5\%Ag$ solder by electroplating, which applies the mechanism of transient liquid phase bonding to soldering. During heating Bi will diffuse into the $Sn-3.5\%Ag$ solder and this results in decreasing soldering temperature. As bonding samples, the 1608 capacitor electroplated with Sn, and PCB, its surface was finished with electroless-plated Ni/Au, were selected. The $Sn-95.7\%Bi$ coated Sn-3.5Ag was supplied as a solder between the capacitor and PCB land. The samples were reflowed at $220^{\circ}C$, which was lower than that of normal reflow temperature, $240\~250^{\circ}C$, for the Pb-free. As experimental result, the joint of $Sn-95.7\%Bi$ coated Sn-3.5Ag showed high shear strength. In the as-reflowed state, the shear strength of the coated solder showed 58.8N, whereas those of commercial ones were 37.2N (Sn-37Pb), 31.4N (Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu), and 40.2N (Sn-8Zn-3Bi). After thermal shock of 1000 cycles between $-40^{\circ}C$ and $+125^{\circ}C$, shear strength of the coated solder showed 56.8N, whereas the previous commercial solders were in the range of 32.3N and 45.1N. As the microstructures, in the solder $Ag_3Sn$ intermetallic compound (IMC), and along the bonded interface $Ni_3Sn_4$ IMC were observed.

PCB와 BGA 패드의 형태가 무연솔더 접합부의 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하었다. 현재 BGA/PCB 패드의 형태는 NSMD (Non-Solder Mask Defined)와 SMD (Solder Mask Defined) 두 가지 구조로 형성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 OSP 도금처리한 무연솔더(Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu, Sn-1.2Ag-0.5Cu)의 패드 형태를 NSMD, SMD로 달리하여 낙하충격시험, 굽힘충격시험, 고속전단시험을 통한 솔더 접합부의 기계적 특성을 연구하였다. 낙하충격과 굽힘충격시험의 경우 패드 구조에 따른 솔더볼 접합부의 특성수명은 동일한 경향을 나타내었으며, 솔더접합부의 기계적 특성은 SMD가 NSMD보다 우수하였다. 이 이유는 SMD의 경우 낙하충격 시험과 고속 전단시험 모두 IMC에서 파단이 일어난 반면에 NSMD의 경우 낙하충격 시험 후의 파단면은 패턴을 감싸고 있는 랜드 상단 모서리 부분에서 파단이 일어났기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 전단시험의 경우에는 NSMD 접합부에서 패드 lift현상이 발생하였다. 따라서 BGA/PCB의 패드구조의 조합은 SMD/SMD > SMD/NSMD > NSMD/SMD > NSMD/NSMD 순으로 기계적 특성 수명이 우수하였다.

The effect of high temperature-moisture on corrosion and mechanical properties for Sn-0.7Cu, Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC305) solders on flexible substrate was studied using Highly Accelerated Temperature/Humidity Stress Test (HAST) followed by three-point bending test. Both Sn-0.7Cu and SAC305 solders produced the internal $SnO_2$ oxides. Corrosion occurred between the solder and water film near flexible circuit board/copper component. For the SAC305 solder with Ag content, furthermore, octahedral corrosion products were formed near Ag3Sn. For the SAC305 and Sn-0.7Cu solders, the amount of internal oxide increased with the HAST time and the amount of internal oxides was mostly constant regardless of Ag content. The size of the internal oxide was larger for the Sn-0.7Cu solder. Despite of different size of the internal oxide, the fracture time during three-point bending test was not significantly changed. It was because the bending crack was always initiated from the three-point corner of the chip. However, the crack propagation depended on the oxides between the flexible circuit board and the Cu chip. The fracture time of the three-point bending test was dependent more on the crack initiation than on the crack propagation.

The effect of metal turnover (MTO) of electroless Ni plating bath on the brittle fracture behavior of electroless nickel electroless palladium immersion gold (ENEPIG)/Sn-3.0wt%Ag-0.5wt%Cu(SAC305) solder joint was evaluated in this study. The MTOs of the electroless Ni for the ENEPIG surface finish were 0 and 3. As the MTO increased, the interfacial IMC thickness increased. The brittle fracture behavior of the ENEPIG/SAC305 solder joint was evaluated with high speed shear (HSS) test. The HSS strength decreased with increasing the MTO of the electroless Ni bath. The brittle fracture increased with increasing the shear speed of the HSS test. The percentage of the brittle fracture for the 3 MTO sample was much higher than that for the 0 MTO sample.

Sn-3.5Ag 무연합금을 Cu 및 Alloy42 리드프레임에 납땜접합 (solder joint)하고 미세조직, 젖음성, 전단강도, 시효효과를 측정하여 비교하였다. Cu의 경우, 땜납의 Sn기지상안에 Ag(sub)3Sn과 Cu(sub)6Sn(sub)5상이, 그리고 땜납/리드프레임의 경계면에서는 1∼2㎛ 두께의 Cu(sub)6Sn(sub)5상이 형성되었다. Alloy42의 경우, 기지상내에 있는 낮은 밀도의 Ag(sub)3Sn상만이, 그리고 계면에는 0.5∼1.5㎛ 두께의 FeSn(sub)2이 형성되었다. 한편, Cu에 비해 Alloy42 리드프레임에서 퍼짐면적은 크고 접촉각은 작아 더 우수한 젖음성을 나타내었으나, 전단강도는 35%, 연신율은 75%로 낮았다. 180℃에서 1주일간 시효처리 후, Cu 리드프레임에는 계면에 η-Cu(sub)6Sn(sub)5 층외에 ξ-Cu(sub)3Sn층이 성장하였고, Alloy42 리드프레임에는 기지상내에 Ag(sub)3Sn이 구형으로 조대하게 성장하였고, 계면에는 FeSn(sub)2층만이 약 1.5㎛로 성장하였다.

지금 까지 전자패키지 접합에 사용되어온 Sn/37Pb 솔더는 낮은 용융온도와 우수한 물리적 특성, 그리고 저렴한 가격 등으로 널리 사용되었다. 그러나 납의 독성으로 인한 환경문제와 인체 유해성이 문제화되면서 이를 대체할 무연솔더의 요구가 시급한 실정이다. 또한 제품의 소형화에 따른 접합부의 미세화로 인한 접합부신뢰성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 Sn/37Pb 솔더를 사용하여 제품에 사용되고 있는 48 $\mu$BGA 패키지를 사용하여 Sn/Ag 계열 의 두 무연솔더인 Sn/3.5Ag/0.75Cu와 Sn/2.0Ag/0.5Cu/2.0Bi를 접합하여 장기신뢰성을 시효처리를 통하여 제시하였다. 시효처리는 $130^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $170^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 각각 300, 600, 900 시간동안 하였으며, 시효처리에 따른 전단강도와 각 솔더의 활성화에너지를 구하여 Sn/37Pb 솔더와 비교하였다. 두 무연솔더의 시효강도는 Sn/37Pb 솔더 보다 우수하였으며, 시효처리에 따라 형성된 솔더내부의 금속간화합물의 형상으로부터 균열의 성장과 형성에 대하여 논하였다. 이런 실험결과들로부터 두 무연솔더의 장기신뢰성 측면에서 대체가능성을 제시하였다.

The characteristic of induction heating solder bump(solder ball: Sn-37Pb, Sn-3.5Ag, Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu) has analyzed in this paper. The initial condition of induction heating depends on the time and current. The shape of lead-free solder bump is better than lead solder. The shear strength of lead solder bump has decreased with aging time. The average of shear strength of solder bump is about 10N, 11N, and 11N respectively. The lead-free solder bump's shear strength is better than lead solder and varies irregularly with aging time.

Solderability, interfacial reaction and mechanical properties of joint between Sn-Bi-Ag base solder and Cu-substrate were studied. Solders were subjected to aging treatments to see the change of mechanical properties for up to 30 days at $100^{\circ}C$, and then also examined the changes of microstructure and morphology of interfacial compound. Sn-Bi-Ag base solder showed about double tensile strength comparing to Pb-Sn eutectic solder. Addition of 0.7wt%Al in the Sn-Bi-Ag alloy increase spread area on Cu substrate under R-flux and helps to reduce the growth of intermetallic compound during heat-treatment. According to the aging experiments of Cu/solder joint, interfacial intermetallic compound layer was exhibited a parabolic growth to aging time. The result of EDS, it is supposed that the soldered interfacial zone was composed of $Cu_6Sn_5$.
