Anti-Slump SiP Solder Paste Enables Further Miniaturization

In this study, a patent-pending new solder paste material has been developed for assembly of System in Package (SiP) with outstanding slump resistance without compromising the paste volume p .. read more

Understanding the Effect of Process Changes and Flux Chemistry on Mid-Chip Solder Balling

This paper documents the experimental work performed to further understand the impact on mid-chip solder balling from both the manufacturing process and the flux chemistry. Mid-chip solder ball .. read more

Reliability Assessment of No-clean and Water-soluble Solder Pastes Part I

Looking back twenty-five years ago,the solder pastes residues had to be cleaned after reflow due to their corrosive nature: two ways of cleaning were possible,either with solvent or by using wa .. read more

Lead-Free Flux Technology and Influence on Cleaning

Lead-free flux technology for electronic industry is mainly driven by high soldering temperature,high alloy surface tension, miniaturization,air soldering due to low cost consideration,and envi .. read more

Performance of China Alloy SnAgCuCe in Reflow Soldering

Work on assisting China's Ministry of Information Industry (MII) to assess the performance of a solder paste using the China alloy Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu0.019Ce (SACCe) was completed. Two Indium fluxes w .. read more

Thixotropy of Solder Paste Impacts Repeatability and Reproducibility of Rheometric Results

The widespread use of SAC-based (SnAgCu) lead-free solder paste drives the industry toward a smaller process window. This is due to higher reflow temperatures as well as the limited thermal res .. read more

Defining Solder Paste Performance via Novel Quantitative Methods

Quantitative solder paste performance or use testing enables material formulators to focus on and maximize key material traits such as wettability and printability. These same material test met .. read more
