we are observing voids in solder ball bonding process using laser.Final metal finish is of Au on Cu.Can anyone tell me the reasons or solution for this problem.We are not using any flux at all.

I believe on High Temp. Spheres you require paste eutectic 63/37. The solder paste forms an intermettalic bond to the pad and a bond to the surface structure of the high temp sphere. The standard 63/37 alloy spheres will melt during reflow and form t

hi, i encounter gold surface contam issue on wire bonding ring after prebake at 150 C for 3 hrs, tis cause wire bonding non stick issue. the contam seem begin at the solder mask area toward center of the bonding ring, but is not consistance.

Hello Chris, To be honest, it's hard to believe you could not bond to ENIG at all. Yes, the gold layer is thin and hard, but it just narrows the process window and does not make the bonding impossible. I say this, because we have been using TS gold w

Do you bond with Al or gold wire? What happens if the Ni is over 150 microinches? Thickness of nickel is one those things that we have not been consistent with. The industry seems to pretty much universally call for 100-200 microinches. Our old board

For soldered areas, we like to keep gold thickness substantially below the maximum you propose. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for our discussions on the topic of acceptable levels of gold with solder connections. Let�s fix this �no one seems be s

I'm attempting to pick and place a small rivet onto our PCB. The rivet should be attached via reflow solder. The rivet will be used to create a sandwich, holding together a frame and additional circuit board in a package. This part is intended onl

Hi, We are electrodepositing Au(0.25 to 0.5 microns) on Cu & using solder ball bonding process via laser.We are getting lots of voids within the solder (not kirkendall voids). Can anyone shed some light on this problem.We are not using any flux.Pre

BeCu is not solderable without plating Cu, Sn, Ag, Ni etc. The solder joint will only be as strong as the bond strength of the solderable plating to the BeCu Pat

Actually, you will be soldering and wire bonding to the palladium layer, so we should have asked if you checked that layer, rather than the nickel. We not sure of the source of the copper that your see on EDX. It's possible copper from the pad migra
