摘要
During the reflow process of Sn-8Zn-20In solder joints in the ball grid array (BGA) packages with Au/Ni/Cu and Ag/Cu pads, the Au and Ag thin films react with liquid solder to form gamma(3)-AuZn4/gamma-Au7Zn18 and epsilon-AgZn6 intermetallics, respectively. The gamma(3)/gamma intermetallic layer is prone to floating away from the solder/Ni interface, and the appearance of any interfacial intermetallics cannot be observed in the Au/Ni surface finished Sn-8Zn-20In packages during further aging treatments at 75 degrees C and 115 degrees C. In contrast, epsilon-CuZn5/gamma-Cu5Zn8 intermetallics are formed at the aged Sn-8Zn-20In/Cu interface of the immersion Ag BGA packages. Bonding strengths of 3.8N and 4.0N are found in the reflowed Sn-8Zn-20In solder joints with Au/Ni/Cu and Ag/Cu pads, respectively. Aging at 75 degrees C and 115 degrees C gives slight increases of ball shear strength for both cases.
