SHENMAO Features a new Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu Lead-Free Solder Paste PF606-P133H for laser soldering applications. Dispensed from syringes, it is developed for automatic laser soldering processes in the packaging and assembly of surface mount devices and microelectronics. Laser energy is applied at the precise location in a non-contact procedure to create high shear strength well-formed solder joints during the lower thermal stress process while reducing intermetallic formation. PF606-P133H solder paste produces minimal flux residue and no-splash or solder balling issues. It is well suited for high yield soldering of sensitive electronic components in manufacturing or repair of electronic devices that can-not tolerate conventional reflow-oven temperature.

First published in the 2012 IPC APEX EXPO technical conference proceedings. We investigated the micro-void formation of solder joints after reliability tests such as preconditioning (precon) and thermal cycle (TC) by varying the thickness of Palladium (Pd) in Electroless Nickel / Electroless Palladium / Immersion Gold (ENEPIG) surface finish. We used lead-free solder of Sn-1.2Ag-0.5Cu-Ni (LF35). We found multiple micro-voids of less than 10 µm line up within or above the intermetallic compound (IMC) layer. The number of micro-voids increased with the palladium (Pd) layer thickness. Our results revealed that the micro-void formation should be related to (Pd, Ni)Sn4 phase resulted from thick Pd layer. We propose that micro-voids may form due to either entrapping of volatile gas by (Pd, Ni)Sn4 or creeping of (Pd, Ni)Sn4.
