Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu/Sn-58Bi composite solder joint assembled using a low-temperature reflow process for PoP technology

Package-on-Package (PoP) is a popular technology for fabricating chipsets of accelerated processing units. However, the coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch between Si chips and polymer substrates induces thermal warpage during the reflow process. As such, the reflow temperature and reliability of solder joints are critical aspects of PoP. Although Sne58Bi is a good candidate for low-temperature processes, its brittleness causes other reliability issues. In this study, an in-situ observation was performed on .. ...

Optimising Solder Paste Volume for Low Temperature Reflow of BGA Packages

The need to minimise thermal damage to components and laminates, to reduce warpage-induced defects to BGA packages, and to save energy, is driving the electronics industry towards lower process temperatures. For soldering processes the only way that temperatures can be substantially reduced is by using solders with lower melting points. Because of constraints of ...

Assembly Process Feasibility of Low/No Silver Alloy Solder Paste Materials

Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu (SAC305) is the most popular near eutectic lead-free alloy used in the manufacturing processes. Over the last several years, the price of silver has dramatically increased driving a desire for lower silver alloy alternatives. As the results, there is a significant increase in the number of alternative low/no silver lead-free solder alloys ...

Wave Profiles -- I've seen many folks using IR guns for wave preheat profiles. Is this common? Is it less important to use a datalogger like Mole or Kic for wavesoldering?

SMTA UHDI test vehicle -- How do I get the SMTA test vehicle board artwork? I have been looking around the sight and do not see it as something I can purchase.
