Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent simply the formation of tin whiskers at a low cost without depriving tin plating of its effect, by forming a thin lead film on the surface of the tin plating formed on a base metal. CONSTITUTION:A tin film 11 is formed on a base metal 13 by plating after forming an under film 12 on the metal 13 by plating, and a thin lead film 31 is formed on the film 11. Thus, the formation of tin whiskers can be prevented without deteriorating the advantages of the tin plating such as improved rust and corrosion preventing properties and solderability. The lead film 31 is formed by electroless plating, vapor deposition, sputtering or other method. A region having high lead concn. may be formed in place of the lead film 31 by ion implantation, diffusion or other method, or a thin film of a lead-tin alloy contg. >=5% lead may be formed and the same effect is obtd.

Conventionally, solder plating (lead-tin alloy plating) containing 1 to 30% lead has been applied as a plating to prevent the generation of intrinsic tin whiskers. FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a tin-plated portion, and FIG. 2 a solder-plated portion.

As shown in Figure 1, tin plating is formed by forming a tin plating film (1υ) on a base metal θ field on which a base plating film has been applied. Intrinsic tin whiskers have often formed over a period of days to years, causing electrical shorts.

For solder plating, instead of the 0υ tin plating film in Figure 1,
A solder plating film was applied as shown in QI in FIG. 2, and no intrinsic tin whiskers were generated. but,
A knob-like protrusion more than 10 times the diameter of the whisker was formed.

In solder plating, the plating film is made of an alloy of lead and tin, so it is necessary to maintain the composition ratio of lead and tin within a certain range. need to be kept. However, as the plating process progresses, the composition of the plating solution changes, so the composition of the plating solution must be constantly controlled.
The plating solution also had drawbacks, such as being expensive.

This invention was made in order to eliminate the conventional defects such as "2 parts", and by applying a very thin layer of lead to the tin plating surface on top of the normal tin plating, the tin plating The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for preventing the generation of tin whiskers that can achieve an effect equal to or greater than that of solder plating without sacrificing the effect of tin whiskers.

In the above example, the base metal is brass, which tends to generate intrinsic whiskers, and the tin plating uses a tin plating solution containing a brightening agent that also tends to generate intrinsic whiskers. A coated film was created. Separately, 0.05 to 0.5 pm of lead plating was applied on the tin plating film under the same conditions. In the tin-plated films prepared in these solutions, true whiskers were generated in about one month. On the other hand, no true whiskers were observed from the tamped film in which lead plating was applied on top of tin plating even after two years had passed. However, protrusions formed on the solder plating film were observed. Furthermore, when lead plating was applied under the tin plating instead of on top of the tin plating, the lead plating had no effect and generation of intrinsic whiskers was observed as in the case of tin plating alone.

As described above, it has been confirmed that when a very thin lead plating is present on the tin plating of the present invention, it is effective in preventing the generation of intrinsic whiskers.

In another example, a lead film on tin plating is deposited by electroless plating, sputtering, etc. to a thickness of 0.05, 0.1, 0.87
It was made to a thickness of zm. Even after about 1.5 years, no intrinsic whiskers were observed in these tin platings, and it was confirmed that the tin plating had the same effect as lead film formation by electroplating.

Furthermore, in another embodiment, 0.05
When a high concentration layer of 7zm lead was created on the surface of the tin plating film, no true whiskers were observed to occur after about 1.5 years. However, when a high lead concentration layer is formed by diffusion, the temperature is raised because it is performed using heat, and the prevention effect of the temperature increase is also significant, so it is thought that the prevention effects of both prevent the formation of true whiskers.

As described above, according to the present invention, the tin plating and the lead thin film are created separately, so the advantages of the tin plating are not lost.
In addition, management of the plating solution is easier than in the case of solder plating, and there is no need to use an expensive plating solution like solder plating solution, so it is extremely effective as a method for preventing the generation of tin whiskers. .
