This paper describes the results of an intensive whisker formation study on Pb-free assemblies with different levels of cleanliness. Thirteen types of as-received surface-mount and pin-through-hole components were cleaned and intentionally contaminated with solutions containing chloride, sulfate, bromide, and nitrate. Then the parts were assembled on double-sided boards that were also cleaned or intentionally contaminated with three fluxes having different halide contents. The assemblies were subjected to high-temperature/high-humidity testing (85_C/85% RH). Periodic examination found that contamination triggered whisker formation on both exposed tin and solder fillets. Whisker occurrence and parameters depending on the type and level of contamination are discussed. Cross-sections were used to assess the metallurgical aspects of whisker formation and the microstructural changes occurring during corrosion.

Ascentech will be exhibiting the latest innovative contamination testing, optical inspection, and other productivity-enhancing technology at IPC/APEX in San Diego. Ascentech will show the remarkable GEN3 CM22+, one of the company’s award-winning CM+ range of contaminometers. The CM+ Series measure the amount of ionic contamination in accordance with all existing test methods often referred to as ROSE testing as well as the new PICT test. The CM22+ is a freestanding system able to accommodate larger assemblies while maintaining a low surface area to test solution ratio.
