The figure provides additional details <strong>of</strong> the time-strainprogression. The dramatically lower creep strain value in the Au-Sn solder alloy, when compared with those in the Sn-In, Sn-Pb,Sn-Bi, and SAC solder alloys, is particularly evident. Whilefurther increases in the Au-Sn creep strain appear likely beyondthe 24 hour period, it seems that an asymptote will be reachedaround 10 6 seconds. As will be discussed in the next paragraph,the creep strains cause a significant stress relief in the Sn-In, Sn-Pb, Sn-Bi, and SAC solder joints. Conversely, the creep resistantAu-Sn solder experiences negligible stress relief. The creepdeformation in the Sn-In and Sn-Pb solder joints is about thesame.1 second 6 hours0.04SACSn-InPb-SnFig 17 – Creep shear strain in the SAC bump at 1 secondand 6 hoursCreep shear strain0.030.020.01Sn-BiAu-Sn00 6 12 18 24Time (hr)1 second 6 hoursFig 18 – Creep shear strain in the Sn-Bi bump at 1 secondand 6 hoursFig 20 – Creep shear strain at the critical bump location as afunction <strong>of</strong> timeThe corresponding shear stress distributions at 1 second and 6hours are shown in Figures 21 through 25. As may be expectedfrom an examination <strong>of</strong> the creep strains, the shear stress withinthe Sn-In and Sn-Pb solder joints drops rapidly from high initialvalues to values <strong>of</strong> less than 0.5MPa at 6 hours. This stress relief isevident in the SAC and Sn-Bi alloys also, where high initialstresses also drop to negligible values at 6 hours. The creepresistant Au-Sn solder joints have a higher shear stress value thanthat <strong>of</strong> the Sn-In, Sn-Pb, SAC, and Sn-Bi alloys and this highvalue appears unabated after 6 hours.1014 2006 Electronic Components and Technology Conference
