Lead-based solder alloys containing copper
A tin-lead solder alloy containing copper and optionally silver as its alloying constituents. The solder alloy consists essentially of, by weight, about 55% to about 75% tin, about 11% to about 44% lead, up to about 4% silver, nickel, palladium, platinum and/or gold, greater than 1% to about 10% cop...

Zusammenfassung: | A tin-lead solder alloy containing copper and optionally silver as its alloying constituents. The solder alloy consists essentially of, by weight, about 55% to about 75% tin, about 11% to about 44% lead, up to about 4% silver, nickel, palladium, platinum and/or gold, greater than 1% to about 10% copper, and incidental impurities. The solder alloys contain a small portion of CuSn intermetallic compounds, and exhibit a melting mechanism in which all but the intermetallic compounds melt within a narrow temperature range, though the actual liquidus temperature of the alloys may be considerably higher, such that the alloys can be treated as requiring peak reflow temperatures of about 250° C. or less. The intermetallic compounds precipitate out to form a diffusion barrier that increases the reliability of solder connections formed therewith. |
