Abstract
The effect of excessive intermetallic growth to the reliability of solder joints become major problem in electronic devices industry. In this study, we used Sn-Cu-Si3N4composite solder to observe the intermetallic compound (IMC) growth during low and high temperature aging. 50°C and 150°C represent low and high aging temperature respectively. Various isothermal of aging times were carried out by using 24hrs, 240hrs and 720hrs. The IMC thickness increases with increasing of aging temperature and time. Cu6Sn5 phase appear at low aging temperature whilst Cu6Sn5together with Cu3Sn phases has been observed at high aging temperature. The growth kinetics for low and high aging temperature is 1.63x10-18μm2/s and 2.75 x10-18μm2/s.
