In this paper, the vibration durability of SAC305 solder interconnects of Heat-sink Very-thin Quad Flat-pack No-leads (HVQFN) assemblies is investigated by accelerated stress testing and Physics-of-Failure (PoF) simulations, under various types of vibration excitation. In future work, these results will be used to develop PoF models for vibration fatigue durability of Pb-free SAC305 solder interconnects...
When assessing the mechanical durability of electronic assemblies, the focus is generally on the solder interconnect. However, in many package styles, such as BGAs (ball grid arrays), LGAs (land grid arrays), MLFs (micro lead frame) and QFNs (quad flat no-lead), the Cu trace emanating from the solder pad may be the weakest failure site, especially if the solder joint is copper-defined rather than...
The thermal cycling durability of large-area Pb-free (Sn3.5Ag) solder interconnects on photovoltaic (PV) solar laminates, has been studied and benchmarks against existing Sn36Pb2Ag interconnects, using a combination of accelerated testing and physics-of-failure (PoF) modeling. Accelerated thermal cycling tests conducted on photovoltaic laminates of both solder compositions, show that the interconnect...
This paper presents a strain based fatigue model for Pb-free SAC (Sn3.9Ag0.7Cu) solder interconnects based on the results of a designed experiment. Testing consists of temperature cycling CLCC packages soldered to printed wiring board under a fixed 100degC temperature range with the mid-point temperature varying between 25 and 75degC. In addition, the dwell (hold) time at the maximum temperature is...
