In this paper, a new application of 4-point cyclic bending test for the solder joint reliability evaluation is discussed. In light of the long cycle time of thermal cycle testing, the industry has been searching for a more cost-effective and time-effective way to achieve the evaluation task. The 4-point cyclic bending test is considered a good candidate in this study. The thermal cycle test and 4-point...
Most accelerated temperature cycling (ATC) tests reported the observations that SnAgCu (SAC) solders have better thermal fatigue reliability than SnPb solders due to their lower creep strain rate. But material studies revealed that this is true only when stress level is below a certain level. When the stress level in the solder increases, eventually the creep strain rate of SAC solder may outgrow...
Thermal fatigue lifetime of the Fan-in Package on Package (FiPoP) was analyzed based on the plastic strain model by finite element analysis (FEA). Both the stress and strain of FBGA and PBGA solder joints were studied under thermal cycling. It was found that the outmost solder joint on the PCB was the most dangerous position. The fatigue lifetime for the key solder joint on the PCB was estimated using...
This study concerns the failure mechanism of a lead-free SAC305 solder joint under the isothermal bending fatigue condition. For this, series of bending fatigue tests are carried out with the variations of bending displacement and frequency, and FEM analysis is conducted to examine the relationship between mechanical behavior of a solder joint and fatigue life cycle. The results of this investigation...
The reliability of BGA assembly packages were evaluated by rapid fatigue life test. Three-point bend fatigue life test method has been developed for Sn-Ag-Cu 305 and rare-earth addition Sn-Ag-Cu-Ce solder joints. In this study, BGA assembly with Ni/Au surface finish was tested under cyclic bending load at room temperature. The bending fatigue life of Sn-Ag-Cu 305 solder joint was compared with rare-earth...
Recent studies revealed that there is no simple ldquodrop inrdquo solution for the lead-free replacement of SnPb joints, instead different Sn-based solders are advantageous for different use conditions, which can be dominated either by drop loading or by thermal cyclic loading in harsh use conditions. By way of high-speed shear testing reliability assessments of components during drop and shock events...
