Abstract
A study of the Sn‐Ag‐Cu lead‐free solder reflow profile has been conducted. The purpose of the work was to determine the Sn‐Ag‐Cu reflow profile that produced solder bumps with a thin intermetallic compound (IMC) layer and fine microstructure. Two types of reflow profiles were studied. The results of the experiment indicated that the most significant factor in achieving a joint with a thin IMC layer and fine microstructure was the peak temperature. The results suggest that the peak temperature for the Sn‐Ag‐Cu lead‐free solder should be 230°C. The recommended time above liquidus is 40 s for the RSS reflow profile and 50‐70 s for the RTS reflow profile.
