Abstract

Solder joints have been used for electric connections in many electronic devices, and the joints are subjected to mechanical loadings such as static or cyclic tension/compression and shearing under various environments. Since the melting point of solder is very low comparing with the other normal metals, the time-dependent damage accumulation and fracture are often found in the solders even at the room temperature. In this paper, tensile tests of copper-cored lead-free solder ball and nickel rod joints were carried out in air, distilled water, and salt water environments using a unique testing device with permanent magnet. The time-dependent fracture of the joints was investigated from the viewpoint of damage accumulation.
