The effect of shearing speed on the shear force and energy of Sn-0Ag-0.5Cu solder ball was investigated. Various UBM (under bump metallurgy)'s on Cu pads were used such as ENEPIG (Electroless Nickel, Electroless Palladium, Immersion Gold; Ni/Pd/Au), ENIG (Electroless Nickel, Immersion Gold; Ni/Au), OSP (Organic Solderability Preservative). To fabricate a shear test specimen, a solder ball, $300{\mu}m$ in diameter, was soldered on a pad of FR4 PCB (printed circuit board) by a reflow soldering machine at $245^{\circ}C$. The solder bump on the PCB was shear tested by changing the shearing speed from 0.01 m/s to 3.0 m/s. As experimental results, the shear force increased with a shearing speed of up to 0.6 m/s for the ENIG and the OSP pads, and up to 0 m/s for the ENEPIG pad. The shear energy increased with a shearing speed up to 0.3 m/s for the ENIG and the OSP pads, and up to 0.6 m/s for the ENEPIG pad. With a high shear speed of over 0 m/s, the ENEPIG showed a higher shear force and energy than those of the ENIG and OSP. The fracture surfaces of the shear tested specimens were analyzed, and the fracture modes were found to have closer relationship with the shear energy than the shear force.

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 $Cu_6Sn_5$.

비전도성 필름(non-conductive film, NCF)의 적용이 Cu/Ni/Sn-2.5Ag 미세범프의 금속간화합물(intermetallic compound, IMC) 성장 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 110, 130, 150℃의 온도 조건과 1.3×10⁵ A/cm²의 전류밀도 조건에서 실시간 열처리 및 electromigration(EM) 실험을 진행하였다. 그 결과, NCF 적용 유무와 열처리 및 EM 실험과 관계없이 Ni₃Sn₄ IMC 성장에 필요한 활성화에너지는 약 0.52 eV로 큰 차이는 보이지 않았다. 이는 Ni-Sn IMC의 성장속도가 Cu-Sn IMC 성장 속도보다 매우 느리며, 또한 Ni-Sn IMC의 성장 거동은 시간의 제곱근에 선형적으로 증가하므로 확산이 지배하는 동일한 반응기구를 가지며 NCF 적용에 따른 역응력(back stress)의 EM 억제 효과가 크지 않기 때문에 Ni₃Sn₄ IMC 성장에 필요한 활성화에너지는 차이가 나지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

The effect of high shear speed on shear force, shear energy and fracture surface was investigated for the solder joint of a $Sn-_{3.0}Ag-_{0.5}Cu$ ball. For both ENIG and OSP pads, the shear force increased with an increase in shearing speed to 0.3 m/s. However, for an ENEPIG pad, the shear force increased with an increase in shear speed to 0.6 m/s and kept almost constant afterward. The shear energy decreased with an increase in shearing speed for ENIG and OSP pads. For the ENEPIG pad, however, the shear energy almost remained constant in a shearing speed range 0.3-3.0 m/s. The fracture mode analysis revealed that the amount of brittle fracture for the ENIG and the OSP pads increased with shearing speed, and a complete brittle fracture appeared at 1.0 m/s for ENIG and 2.0 m/s for OSP. However, the ENEPIG pad showed only a ductile fracture until 0.25 m/s, and a full brittle fracture didn't occur up to 3.0 m/s. The fracture mode matched well with the shear energy. The results from the high speed shear test of SAC305 were similar to those of SAC105.

솔더조인트의 신뢰성에는 인쇄회로기판의 표면처리 특성이 많은 영향을 미치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ENEPIG 표면처리에서 Sn-4.0wt%Ag-0.5wt%Cu (SAC405) 솔더와 Pd 촉매 처리 시간에 따른 high speed shear 에너지 및 파괴 모드를 연구하였다. 또한 Pd 촉매 처리 시간과 무전해 Ni-P 도금의 표면 거칠기 (Ra)와의 관계를 규명하였다. Pd 촉매 처리 시간이 길어질수록 Ni-P nodule의 면적은 넓어지고, Ni-P 도금의 표면 거칠기 (Ra)는 감소한다. 이러한 영향으로 질산 기상 처리한 시편의 high speed shear 평가후 quasi-brittle과 brittle 모드의 점유율은 감소한다. 이는 Pd 촉매 처리 시간의 증가가 SAC405 솔더조인트의 신뢰도를 향상시키는 역할을 한다는 것을 나타낸다.

The microstructural investigation and thermo-mechanical reliability evaluation of the Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder bumped flip chip package were carried out during the thermal shock test of the package. In the initial reaction, the reaction product between the solder and Cu mini bump of chip side was Cu6Sn5 layer, while the two phases which were (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 and (Ni,Cu)3Sn4 were formed between the solder and Ni-P layer of the package side. The cracks were occurred at the corner solder joints after the thermal shocks of 400 cycles. The primary failure mechanism of the solder joints in this type of package was confirmed to be thermally activated solder fatigue failure.

This study investigated the characteristics of fracture behavior and mode on solder joints before and after thermal shock test for automotive application component using Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder, which has a outstanding property as lead-free solder. The shear strength was decreased with thermal cycle number, after 432 cycles of thermal shock test. In addition, fracture mode was verified to ductile, brittle fracture and base materials fracture such as different kind fractured mode using SEM and EDS. Before the thermal shock, the fractured mode was found to typical ductile fracture in solder layer. After thermal shock test, especially, Ag was found on fractured portion as roughest surface. Moreover, it occurred delamination between a PCB and a Cu land. Before thermal shock test, most of fractured mode in solder layer has dimples by ductile fracture. However, after thermal shock test, the fractured mode became a combination of ductile and brittle fracture, and it also could find that the fracture behavior varied including delamination between substrate and Cu land.

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.

전자 패키징은 미세화, 경량화, 저가화를 지향하고 신뢰성의 향상을 위해 발전해 왔다. 이러한 경향은 전자부품 자체의 성능 향상 뿐 아니라 전자부품을 장착, 고정할 수 있게 하는 인쇄회로 기판(PCB : Printed Circuit Board)의 성능에 많은 관심을 가지게 되었다. 전기적 신호의 손실을 줄이기 위해 전기, 전자 산업체에서는 가볍고 굴곡성이 우수한 연성인쇄회로기판(FPCB : Flexible PCB)과 가격이 싸고 신뢰성이 입증된 경성인쇄회로기판(RPCB : Rigid PCB)이 그 대상이다. 본 논문에서는 이 PCB중에서도 RPCB와 FPCB간의 열압착 방식으로 접합 시 전극간의 접합 양상을 보았다. 이 열압착 방식은 기존에 PCB를 접합하는데 사용하고 있는 connector를 이용한 체결법을 대체하는 기술로써 솔더를 중간층(interlayer)로 이용하여 열과 압력으로 접합하는 방식이다. 이 방식을 connector를 사용하는 방식에 비해 그 부피가 작고 I/O개수에 크게 영향 받지 않으며 자동화 공정이 쉬운 장점을 가지고 있다. 접합의 대상 중 RPCB의 경우는 무전해 니켈 금도금(ENIG : Electroless Nickle Immersion Gold)로 제작하였으며 FPCB의 경우는 ENIG와 유기보호피막(OSP : Organic solderability preservation) 처리하였다. 실험에 사용한 PCB는 $300\;{\mu}m$ pitch의 미세피치이며 솔더의 조성은 Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (in wt%)과 Sn-3.0Ag (in wt%)를 사용하였다. 접합 온도와 접합 시간 그리고 접합 압력에 따라 최적의 접합 조건을 도출하였다. 접합 강도는 $90^{\circ}$ Peel Test를 통해서 측정하였으며 접합면 및 파괴면은 SEM과 EDS를 통하여 분석하였다.
