WEEK 1

Topics include:

  • Intermetallic compounds – definition, fundamentals, characteristics
  • Role of phase diagrams of Pb-free vs. SnPb
  • Intermetallic compounds in the intrinsic material- Pb-free vs. SnPb
  • Formation and growth during production process and product service life
  • Intermetallic compounds - at-interface vs. in-bulk
  • Failure phenomena as the result of IMCs
  • Effects from substrate compositions (hybrid module thick film pads, PCB surface finish, IC package component surface coating)
  • Gold embrittlement – phenomena, factors, criteria
  • Different types of intermetallic compounds – effects on solder joint reliability (Ni/Au, Ni/Pd/Au, Ni/Pd, Cu)
  • SAC alloys incorporated with various doping elements – characteristics, performance
  • “Low-Temperature” solders – critical areas to product reliability
  • Effects on failure mode
  • Effects on reliability
  • Selected case studies
  • Summary

 

This course provides working knowledge and practical insights to anyone who is concerned about reliability or interested in understanding the relationship between product reliability and solder joint behavior in relation to intermetallic compounds. This includes designers, researchers, managers, quality, manufacturing, and reliability professionals, as well as business decision-makers.
