Abstract: | The changes of electrical conductivity (resistance) between Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder joints and printed circuit board (PCB) assembly
during aging at 125°C were investigated by the four-point probe technique. The microstructural characterizations of interfacial
layers between the solder matrix and the substrate were examined by optical microscopy and scanning electronic microscopy.
Different types of specimens were designed to consider several factors. The experimental results indicate that electrical
conductivities (resistances) and residual shear strengths of the solder joint specimens significantly decrease after 1000
h during isothermal aging. Microcracks generate in the solder matrix at the first 250 h. Besides, the evolutions of microstructural
characterizations at the interface and the matrix of solder joints were noted in this research. |
