Description

本発明は、プリント基板の表面に電子部品を実装する際のボールはんだ及びクリームはんだを用いたはんだ接合方法、及びはんだ接合構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a solder joint method using ball solder and cream solder when mounting an electronic component on the surface of a printed circuit board, and a solder joint structure.

従来、プリント基板の表面に電子部品を実装する際のはんだ付け方法は、長いリード線を有するアキシャル部品が多く用いられてきたが、電子機器の小型化や多機能化に伴い、高集積化された電子部品SIPやDIP、QFP等が用いられるようになっている。また、近年、多機能化が更に進み、高密度実装対応のため、BAGパッケージやCSPパッケージが用いられるようになっている。   Conventionally, as the soldering method for mounting electronic components on the surface of a printed circuit board, axial components having long lead wires have been used in many cases. However, as electronic devices are miniaturized and multi-functionalized, they are highly integrated. Electronic parts SIP, DIP, QFP, etc. are used. In recent years, the number of functions has further increased, and BAG packages and CSP packages have been used for high-density mounting.

このようなBAGパッケージやCSPパッケージでは、プリント基板上に配置するためにはんだ接合には小さなボールはんだが用いられる。この手法としては、プリント基板やBGAボールはんだにクリームはんだを塗布した後にBAGパッケージやCSPパッケージをセットして、リフロー処理によってはんだ接合する方法が公知である。   In such a BAG package and a CSP package, small ball solder is used for solder bonding in order to arrange on a printed circuit board. As this method, a method is known in which cream solder is applied to a printed circuit board or BGA ball solder, and then a BAG package or CSP package is set and soldered by reflow processing.

ところで、上記手法によって接合されるBGAパッケージやCSPパッケージでは、種々の接合不良が発生している。この接合不良の中でとりわけ接合信頼性に大きく影響を及ぼしているのが、ボイドと呼ばれるはんだ接合内部に形成される小さな空洞である。ボイドが発生するとはんだ接合強度が低下し、クラックの原因ともなるため、ボイド発生の抑制方法が種々検討されている。また、BGAパッケージ等のはんだ接合において、BGAパッケージ基板に実装後のBGAボールはんだの高さにバラツキが発生するため、ミクロン単位が要求されるプリント基板実装工程においては、BGAボールはんだとクリームはんだが相溶せずに接合不良を発生することも問題となっている。   By the way, in the BGA package and the CSP package joined by the above method, various joining failures occur. Among the poor joints, a small cavity formed inside the solder joint called a void has a great influence on the joint reliability. When voids are generated, the solder joint strength is reduced and causes cracks. Therefore, various methods for suppressing the generation of voids have been studied. In addition, since the height of the BGA ball solder after being mounted on the BGA package substrate varies in the solder bonding of the BGA package or the like, BGA ball solder and cream solder are used in a printed circuit board mounting process that requires micron units. It is also a problem that bonding failure occurs without being compatible.

ボイドの発生を抑制する方法として、特許文献1では、接続部におけるはんだ溶融の時間を長くしてはんだ内から発生するガスが外気に抜ける時間を確保するために二種の異なる熱容量を備えたはんだ粉末を含むクリームはんだに関する提案が行われている。特許文献2では、微小サイズのBGAボールはんだを用いた際のボイド発生抑制のための合金組成に関する提案行われている。さらに、特許文献3では、はんだ接合時に接合部を減圧状態の圧力に調整する減圧装置の提案が行われており、特許文献4では、高温はんだ接合におけるボイド発生抑制のためのはんだ合金組成の提案が行われている。特許文献5では、2種類の融点の異なるはんだ合金を用いてボイドの発生を抑制する提案が行われている。   As a method for suppressing the generation of voids, Patent Document 1 discloses a solder having two different heat capacities in order to ensure the time for the gas generated from the solder to escape to the outside air by increasing the time for melting the solder in the connection portion. Proposals have been made regarding cream solder containing powder. Patent Document 2 proposes an alloy composition for suppressing the generation of voids when a BGA ball solder having a very small size is used. Further, Patent Document 3 proposes a decompression device that adjusts the joint to a decompressed pressure during solder joining, and Patent Document 4 proposes a solder alloy composition for suppressing void generation in high-temperature solder joining. Has been done. In patent document 5, the proposal which suppresses generation | occurrence | production of a void using two types of solder alloys from which melting | fusing point differs is performed.

BGAボールはんだとクリームはんだを用いたはんだ接合では、接合部にあるBGAボールはんだとクリームはんだがリフロー炉の加熱により、それぞれ溶融する。この場合、クリームはんだ中や接合界面等で発生したガスは、溶融したBGAボールはんだが遮蔽してしまい、ガスが外気へ放出することが妨げられることになり、そのガスは凝固したはんだ接合部に封じ込められてボイドになることが、ボイド発生の原因の一つと考えられている。ところが、特許文献1はクリームはんだのみに関する提案であり、特許文献2はBGAボールはんだのみに関する提案であり、特許文献4は高温はんだに関する組成の提案であり、さらに特許文献5は2種類のはんだ合金を用いる提案であるため、それぞれの場合はともかくとして、BGAボールはんだとクリームはんだの組み合わせにおいてボイド発生を抑制することについては、有効ではない。また、特許文献3の減圧装置を用いた提案は、リフロー炉に別途装置を取り付ける必要があると同時に、はんだペレットの形状や温度プロファイルの工夫も必要になるという問題がある。また、BGAパッケージ基板に実装後のBGAボールはんだの高さを精密にコントロールするという技術については、実装技術の向上により改良されつつあるものの、いまだに実用レベルでは接合不良が発生している。   In solder joining using BGA ball solder and cream solder, the BGA ball solder and cream solder in the joint are melted by heating in the reflow furnace. In this case, the gas generated in the cream solder or at the joint interface is blocked by the melted BGA ball solder, preventing the gas from being released to the outside air, and the gas is applied to the solidified solder joint. It is considered that one of the causes of void generation is to contain the void. However, Patent Document 1 is a proposal related to cream solder only, Patent Document 2 is a proposal related to BGA ball solder only, Patent Document 4 is a proposal of a composition related to high-temperature solder, and Patent Document 5 is two kinds of solder alloys. In any case, it is not effective to suppress the generation of voids in the combination of BGA ball solder and cream solder. Further, the proposal using the decompression device of Patent Document 3 has a problem that it is necessary to separately attach a device to the reflow furnace, and at the same time, it is necessary to devise the shape of the solder pellet and the temperature profile. Further, although the technology for precisely controlling the height of the BGA ball solder after being mounted on the BGA package substrate is being improved by improving the mounting technology, a bonding failure still occurs at a practical level.

本発明は、上述した従来の課題を解決しようとするもので、BGAボールはんだとクリームはんだを用いたはんだ接合において、減圧装置等の付属設備を使用せずに従来設備にてボイドの発生を抑制する発明を開示することを目的とする。   The present invention is intended to solve the above-described conventional problems, and suppresses the generation of voids in conventional equipment without using accessory equipment such as a decompression device in solder joints using BGA ball solder and cream solder. It is an object of the present invention to disclose an invention.

本発明者らは、上記目的を達成する基本的なアプローチとして、ボイド発生のメカニズムに着目し、BGAボールはんだとクリームはんだの溶融状態の変化や相対的な溶融温度の違いに着目した。すなわち、BGAボールはんだの液相線温度が該クリームはんだの固相線温度よりも低いという関係を持つ合金を選択してリフローすることによって、ボイドの発生を飛躍的に減少させたものである。   As a basic approach for achieving the above object, the present inventors focused on the void generation mechanism, and focused on the change in the melting state of BGA ball solder and cream solder and the difference in relative melting temperature. That is, the generation of voids is drastically reduced by selecting and reflowing an alloy having a relationship that the liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder is lower than the solidus temperature of the cream solder.

また、BGAボールはんだ合金の液相線温度と、クリームはんだ中のはんだ合金の固相線温度が、少なくとも1℃以上の関係にあることを選択的に採用した。BGAボールはんだの液相線温度と、クリームはんだ中のはんだ合金の固相線温度は、ある程度離れているほうが好ましいが、1℃の相違があれば、リフロー法の一般的な温度プログラムで加熱しても、先にBGAボールはんだを液体化させることができる。   Further, it was selectively adopted that the liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder alloy and the solidus temperature of the solder alloy in the cream solder have a relationship of at least 1 ° C. or more. The liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder and the solidus temperature of the solder alloy in the cream solder are preferably separated from each other to some extent, but if there is a difference of 1 ° C, the temperature is heated by a general temperature program of the reflow method. However, the BGA ball solder can be liquefied first.

さらに、BGAボールはんだ及びクリームはんだに用いるはんだ合金が共晶組成であることを採用する。共晶の場合には液相線温度と固相線温度が一致するので、それぞれのはんだの溶融が速く、ボイド発生の原因であるガスをはんだ内部から押し出し、ボイドの発生を減少できる。   Further, it is adopted that the solder alloy used for BGA ball solder and cream solder has a eutectic composition. In the case of eutectic, since the liquidus temperature and the solidus temperature coincide with each other, the melting of each solder is fast, and the gas that causes the generation of voids can be pushed out from the inside of the solder to reduce the generation of voids.

さらにまた、BGAボールはんだとして、Sn−Ag−Cuを主成分とするはんだ合金を一例として採用し、クリームはんだ中のはんだ合金の一例としてSn−Cu−Niを主成分とするはんだ合金を採用した。両者共に広く用いられている無鉛はんだ合金であり、はんだの特性面においても信頼性が高い。   Furthermore, as a BGA ball solder, a solder alloy mainly composed of Sn—Ag—Cu was adopted as an example, and a solder alloy mainly composed of Sn—Cu—Ni was adopted as an example of a solder alloy in cream solder. . Both are lead-free solder alloys that are widely used and have high reliability in terms of solder characteristics.

周知のように、合金は共晶点でない場合には合金が完全に液体になる液相線温度と、完全に固体になる固相線温度を持つ。上記のような関係を持つBGAボールはんだに採用するはんだ合金と、クリームはんだに採用するはんだ合金の場合には、プリント基板と半導体パッケージ間に挟まれて接触するクリームはんだとBGAボールはんだを、リフロー炉中の高温に曝露すると、先ず、液相線温度が低いBGAボールはんだが溶融して液体になり、表面張力によって表面が曲面を維持する。続いて、BGAボールはんだの液相線温度よりも高い固相線温度を持つクリームはんだ中のはんだ粒に対しては、プリント基板からの熱エネルギーと共にBGAボールはんだが接触している箇所からも熱エネルギーが供給され、BGAボールはんだに接触している付近においてもフラックスの蒸発が始まりガスを発生させる。この発生したガスは溶融したBGAボールはんだの表面張力によって、BGAボールはんだの内部に侵入することが妨げられ、大部分は外気中に放出される。   As is well known, when an alloy is not the eutectic point, it has a liquidus temperature at which the alloy becomes completely liquid and a solidus temperature at which it becomes completely solid. In the case of the solder alloy used for the BGA ball solder having the relationship as described above and the solder alloy used for the cream solder, the cream solder and the BGA ball solder that are sandwiched between the printed circuit board and the semiconductor package are reflowed. When exposed to a high temperature in the furnace, first, the BGA ball solder having a low liquidus temperature melts to become a liquid, and the surface maintains a curved surface due to surface tension. Subsequently, for the solder grains in the cream solder having a solidus temperature higher than the liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder, the heat energy from the printed circuit board and the heat from the place where the BGA ball solder is in contact are also heated. Even in the vicinity where energy is supplied and in contact with the BGA ball solder, evaporation of the flux starts and gas is generated. The generated gas is prevented from entering the inside of the BGA ball solder by the surface tension of the melted BGA ball solder, and most of it is released into the outside air.

一方、クリームはんだ中のはんだ粒は、BGAボールはんだの質量と比較すると極めて小さい単位あたりの質量であり、大きな熱量を有している液体状のBGAボールはんだに接触すると極めて短時間で溶融し、BGAボールはんだの一部としてとり込まれることになる。   On the other hand, the solder particles in the cream solder have a very small mass per unit compared to the mass of the BGA ball solder, and melt in a very short time when contacting the liquid BGA ball solder having a large amount of heat. It will be taken in as part of the BGA ball solder.

このように、本発明では、BGAボールはんだを先に溶融させて表面張力で形状を維持する液体状態を完成させ、続いてBGAボールはんだの熱量によって質量の極めて小さいクリームはんだ中のはんだ粒を溶融させてBGAボールはんだ中にとり込むものである。一方、クリームはんだのクリーム成分については、フラックス機能を発揮させる必要があるために、その蒸発温度ははんだ合金の溶融温度よりも相当低いことは周知であり、その成分によって接合物表面を効果的にぬらすものの、発生したガスがBGAボールはんだ内部に取り込まれることはない。   As described above, in the present invention, the BGA ball solder is first melted to complete a liquid state in which the shape is maintained by surface tension, and then the solder particles in the cream solder having a very small mass are melted by the heat amount of the BGA ball solder. To be taken into the BGA ball solder. On the other hand, it is well known that the cream component of cream solder needs to exhibit a flux function, so that its evaporation temperature is well lower than the melting temperature of the solder alloy. Although wetted, the generated gas is not taken into the BGA ball solder.

上記、本発明の作用の理解をより高めるために、本発明の関係とは逆の、クリームはんだ中のはんだ合金の液相線温度が、BGAボールはんだの固相線温度よりも低い関係について説明する。この場合には、先ずクリームはんだ中のクリーム成分の蒸発に続いて、クリームはんだ中のはんだ粒の溶融が始まる。その溶融したクリームはんだとBGAボールはんだの接触部分からBGAボールはんだの溶融が始まる。その一方でクリームはんだ中で発生した泡状のガスはクリームはんだの中央部分に集中しながら浮上する。そうすると、BGAボールはんだの溶融に伴って、先に溶融しているクリームはんだ中のはんだ粒がBGAボールはんだと一体化するのと同時に、泡状のガスも浮力によってBGAボールはんだ中に取り込まれることになり、ボイドが発生する。この一連のプロセスが、2種類のはんだの溶融に焦点をあてたボイド発生のメカニズムである。なお、このような関係では、最初に一部のクリームはんだが溶融した時、その溶融したクリームはんだの表面張力でBGAボールはんだが持ち上げられ、他の箇所の未溶融クリームはんだとBGAボールはんだが離れて非接触になる。非接触になった箇所のクリームはんだとBGAボールはんだが溶融した後に接触しても、互いに相溶することは困難であり接合不良を生じる。   In order to further improve the understanding of the operation of the present invention, the relationship between the liquidus temperature of the solder alloy in the cream solder and the solidus temperature of the BGA ball solder, which is opposite to the relationship of the present invention, will be described. To do. In this case, melting of the solder grains in the cream solder starts following the evaporation of the cream component in the cream solder. The melting of the BGA ball solder starts from the contact portion between the melted cream solder and the BGA ball solder. On the other hand, the foamy gas generated in the cream solder rises while concentrating on the central part of the cream solder. Then, as the BGA ball solder melts, the solder particles in the cream solder previously melted are integrated with the BGA ball solder, and at the same time, bubble gas is also taken into the BGA ball solder by buoyancy. And voids occur. This series of processes is a void generation mechanism focusing on melting of two types of solder. In such a relationship, when some cream solder is melted for the first time, the BGA ball solder is lifted by the surface tension of the melted cream solder, and the unmelted cream solder and BGA ball solder in other places are separated. Become contactless. Even if the cream solder and the BGA ball solder in the non-contacted portion are melted and then contacted with each other, it is difficult to make them compatible with each other, resulting in poor bonding.

本発明のはんだ接合方法、及びこの方法によって完成したはんだ継手は、従来のリフロー設備も用いることができ、しかも従来のはんだ接合に比べ、ボイドの発生が極度に抑制される。   The solder joint method of the present invention and the solder joint completed by this method can also use a conventional reflow facility, and the generation of voids is extremely suppressed as compared with the conventional solder joint.

以下に、本発明の好ましい実施の形態を図面とともに、かつ、実施例に基づいて説明する。
一般にプリント基板の表面に電子部品を実装する場合、リフロー炉にて加熱して接合される前は、図1に示すようにBGAボールはんだとクリームはんだが装着されている。ここで、1はBGAパッケージ基板、2はBGAボールはんだ、3はクリームはんだ、4はプリント基板である。この図では、クリームはんだ3は、プリント基板4に予め印刷することを前提としているが、BGAボールはんだ2の下端にクリームはんだ3を付着させ、この状態でクリームはんだ3をプリント基板4に接触させる組み合わせを採用しても、本発明が達成する作用効果は同様である。
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings and examples.
In general, when electronic components are mounted on the surface of a printed circuit board, BGA ball solder and cream solder are attached as shown in FIG. 1 before being heated and joined in a reflow furnace. Here, 1 is a BGA package substrate, 2 is a BGA ball solder, 3 is a cream solder, and 4 is a printed circuit board. In this figure, the cream solder 3 is preliminarily printed on the printed circuit board 4, but the cream solder 3 is attached to the lower end of the BGA ball solder 2, and the cream solder 3 is brought into contact with the printed circuit board 4 in this state. Even if the combination is adopted, the effect achieved by the present invention is the same.

BGAボールはんだ2の組成は、特に制限はなく、例えば鉛フリーはんだ合金として公知のSn−Ag合金や、Sn−Cu合金、あるいは、Sn−In合金、Sn−Bi合金、Sn−Zn合金、Sn−Ag−Cu合金、Sn−Cu−Ni合金等を採用することが可能である。また、有鉛はんだ合金のSn−Pb合金をBGAボールはんだとして採用することについても、本発明は排除しない。そして、BGAボールはんだのサイズ、形状に関しても、特に制限はなく、市販されているものであっても、図1の構造に採用するものは広く本発明におけるBGAボールはんだの概念に含む。   The composition of the BGA ball solder 2 is not particularly limited. For example, a known Sn-Ag alloy, Sn-Cu alloy, Sn-In alloy, Sn-Bi alloy, Sn-Zn alloy, or Sn as a lead-free solder alloy -Ag-Cu alloy, Sn-Cu-Ni alloy, etc. can be employed. Further, the present invention does not exclude the use of a leaded solder alloy Sn—Pb alloy as the BGA ball solder. The size and shape of the BGA ball solder are not particularly limited, and those which are commercially available are widely included in the concept of BGA ball solder in the present invention.

However, what is necessary in the present invention is that the liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder alloy is the same as that of the cream solder. It is lower than the solidus temperature of the solder alloy as the contained solder grains, and all combinations of alloys that can achieve this are included in the scope of the present invention.

以下に、実施例を説明する。

Examples will be described below.

・X線透過型検査装置:株式会社島津製作所製 SMX−160CT
[Test equipment]
・ Reflow furnace: TNP25-538EM manufactured by Tamura Corporation
-X-ray transmission type inspection device: SMX-160CT manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation

〔試験方法〕
1.表2に示すBGAパッケージに表1に示すボールはんだを実装し、リフロー炉で加熱後、メチレンクロライドを用いて洗浄した。
2.表2に示すプリント基板に表1に示すクリームはんだをそれぞれ印刷して、ボールはんだ実装BGAパッケージを実装し、リフロー炉で表3に示す条件にてはんだ接合させて表4に示すボールはんだとクリームはんだの組合せの実施例及び比較例を作成した。
3.上記2で得られた継手を、X線透過型検査装置を用いてボイド発生状況を評価した。
〔Test method〕
1. The ball solder shown in Table 1 was mounted on the BGA package shown in Table 2, heated in a reflow furnace, and then washed with methylene chloride.
2. Each of the solder pastes shown in Table 1 is printed on the printed board shown in Table 2 to mount a BGA package mounted with a ball solder and soldered under the conditions shown in Table 3 in a reflow oven, and then the ball solder and cream shown in Table 4 Examples of solder combinations and comparative examples were prepared.
3. The joints obtained in 2 above were evaluated for the occurrence of voids using an X-ray transmission inspection apparatus.

上記各サンプルの組み合わせにおいて、それぞれの液相線温度及び固相線温度から明らかなように、ボールはんだAとクリームはんだCの組み合わせのみが、ボールはんだ合金の液相線温度がクリームはんだ合金の固相線温度よりも低い関係である。
〔試験結果〕
試験結果を表4及び図2に示す。
As is clear from the liquidus temperature and solidus temperature of each of the above combinations of samples, only the combination of the ball solder A and the cream solder C has a liquidus temperature of the ball solder alloy that is the same as that of the cream solder alloy. The relationship is lower than the phase line temperature.
〔Test results〕
The test results are shown in Table 4 and FIG.

表4より、本発明の実施例1は比較例1及び比較例2と比べると、明らかにボイドの発生率が低い。また、図2のようにX線で内部を透過すれば白点のボイド部分が確認でき、ボイドの発生が少ないことが明らかである。このことから、上記実施例の関係では、はんだ継手内部のボイドの発生が減少していることがわかる。即ち、ボールはんだの液相線温度がクリームはんだの固相線温度に比べて低い実施例1のみがボイドの発生が減少しているのに対して、ボールはんだの液相線温度がクリームはんだの固相線温度よりも高い比較例2については、液相線温度と固相線温度が同じである比較例1よりもボイドが多く発生している。この3者の関係からも、BGAボールはんだの液相線温度をクリームはんだに用いたはんだ粒の固相線温度よりも低い関係を採用することによって、ボイドの発生が減少するという結論を導き出すことができる。   From Table 4, Example 1 of the present invention clearly has a lower void generation rate than Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, if the X-ray is transmitted through the inside, a white spot void portion can be confirmed, and it is clear that the generation of voids is small. From this, it can be seen that the occurrence of voids in the solder joint is reduced in the relationship of the above-described embodiment. That is, only in Example 1 where the liquidus temperature of the ball solder is lower than the solidus temperature of the cream solder, the occurrence of voids is reduced, whereas the liquidus temperature of the ball solder is lower than that of the cream solder. In Comparative Example 2, which is higher than the solidus temperature, more voids are generated than in Comparative Example 1, where the liquidus temperature and the solidus temperature are the same. From these three relationships, the conclusion that the generation of voids is reduced by adopting the relationship where the liquidus temperature of the BGA ball solder is lower than the solidus temperature of the solder grains used in the cream solder is derived. Can do.

また、前述の試験において、BGAボールはんだ及びクリームはんだがそれぞれ溶融していく状況を観察していると、リフロー炉で加熱後、本発明の実施例は先ずBGAボールはんだ2が溶融し、次にクリームはんだ3が溶融する経緯を経るが、クリームはんだ3が溶融する際に、先に開示したようにガスが中央付近に集中して浮上することがないので、溶融したBGAボールはんだ2を一瞬持上げる作用は働かず、それぞれのはんだが溶け込み合いながらはんだ接合部を形成していく過程が解明された。そして、100個のはんだ全てに接合不良がないことも確認された。このことによりBGAパッケージ基板1に実装したBGAボールはんだの高さに多少のバラツキが生じたものが含まれていたとしても、はんだ接合終了時にはBGAパッケージとプリント基板双方にしっかりとしたはんだ接合部が形成される。従って、本発明を採用することにより、従来から問題とされていた、BGAボールはんだの高さバラツキによる接合不良の防止効果も発揮することになる。   Moreover, in the above-mentioned test, when the situation where the BGA ball solder and the cream solder are melted is observed, after heating in the reflow furnace, the BGA ball solder 2 is melted first in the embodiment of the present invention, and then The cream solder 3 is melted, but when the cream solder 3 is melted, the gas does not concentrate and float near the center as disclosed above, so the melted BGA ball solder 2 is held for a moment. The process of forming solder joints as each solder melts has been elucidated. It was also confirmed that all 100 solders had no bonding failure. As a result, even if the height of the BGA ball solder mounted on the BGA package substrate 1 includes some variation, a solid solder joint is formed on both the BGA package and the printed circuit board at the end of the solder joint. It is formed. Therefore, by adopting the present invention, the effect of preventing poor bonding due to the height variation of the BGA ball solder, which has been a problem in the past, is also exhibited.

本発明のはんだ接合方法は、ボイドの発生を著しく抑制するばかりでなく、はんだ接合不良をも防止する効果を有するため、特に信頼性を必要とするBGAパッケージやCSPパッケージ等の電子部品接合に広く応用が期待できる。   The solder bonding method of the present invention not only significantly suppresses the generation of voids, but also has an effect of preventing poor solder bonding. Therefore, it is widely used for bonding electronic components such as BGA packages and CSP packages that particularly require reliability. Application can be expected.
