    Technology and

    Application Challenges

    Prelude: Solder Paste and Challenges facedSolder Paste

    Printed Circuit Boards

    • Electronic circuit boards have evolved over time

    • Printing conditions Cpk, void levels, QFN, flux spatter, AR, pad ratio, tin whiskers, ENIG reliability, reliability of application build under high duress of temperature/humidity/thermal cycling/ageing, HiP, NWO, shear strength, cratering, mid-chip balling elimination, compatibility and product agility are some of the challenges.

    • Test vehicle(s) can determine limits ahead of time of current product, and provide direction to match vision

    Prelude: Challenges and Introduction to LOCTITE GC 50 Solder Powder PSD

    Solder Powder Particle Size

    Particle Size:T5

    • Component miniaturization and HDI is causing the need for finer particle distribution for improved process control

    • For LOCTITE GC 50 the PSD of choice is T5 (as tabulated below)• With a finer powder, allows for improved CpK using tighter process tolerances

    Solder Volume Measurements…

    Components getting

    smaller, deposition control on small deposition volumes

    critical

    Prelude: Challenges and Introduction to LOCTITE GC 50Technology Inflection

    • Nominal solder volume = stencil Gerber data requirements• Target nominal volume = 100%• Data generated by Koh Young 3D inspection system for each

    solder deposit and compared to nominal target volumes.

    • Statistical data generated for process capability analysis

  • 8

    Cpk is an index which measures how close a process is running to its specification limits, relative to the natural variability of the process

    • Use these metrics to challenge perceived Cpk or yield(s) as part of driving an improved sustainability future culture. Improve yield, improve capacity, improve ownership.

    • New products should: improve wetting; reduce slump; improve TE; lower void levels; eliminate HiP; reduce solder balling; and improve reliability.

    • Use tools that can both educate and show why decision metrics are important with accountability

    Impact of Cpk

    Statistical Significance

    (Cpk)Transfer Efficiency Reflow Challenges Commentary

    High>2.0

    • Thin stencil: high Cpk more challenging to maintain with process optimization

    • Small pad geometries and large pad geometries on same assembly

    • Homogenous paste

    • TAL for IMC• Flux Choice

    • Excellent transfer efficiency, improves yield, reduces underside stencil wipe frequency, and increases line capacity.

    • Reduced rework. • Confirmed tolerance settings.

    Medium1.3 – 2.0

    • Volume inconsistencies• Slump (cold)• Temperature (rheological impact)• Stability of paste (stencil life/abandon time)• Underside stencil wipe frequency• Area ratio limitation• Re-centering of mean volumes

    • Mid-chip solder balls• Graping• De-wetting• HiP• Die Tilt

    • A mid-level Cpk can cause significant rework. Rework can be quick and easy (misprint cleaning), or rework can be complex (component replacement).

    • Confirmed tolerance settings

    Low< 1.3

    • Volume inconsistencies• Slump (cold)• Temperature (rheological impact)• Stability of paste (stencil life/abandon time)• Process setup - underside stencil wiping• Area ratio limitation• Re-centering of mean volumes

    • Mid-chip solder balls• Graping• De-wetting• HiP• Die Tilt

    • Low Cpk produces very poor TE consistency: resulting in rework levels that impact average price per unit.

    • Correction of bringing process into control, by understanding product/process limits vs requirements.

    • Confirmed tolerance settings.

    • Complex PCB with HDI with large/small components causing reliability challenges from process choices not yielding 100%

    • Eliminate over-engineering of printing solutions (step-stencils and preforms, and smaller powder across circuit board)

    • Out of specification deposit tolerances that cause failures and• HiP and NWO due component PCB warpage (CTE mis-match)

    • “Jet fluid with the consistency of toothpaste at a weight of 2.5x of a snowflake• Through a hurricane• Accelerated to 10g, hitting a diameter of a hair, with a speed of 20ms-1,

    • More precision, improved yield and reduced complexity (BGA; CSP; fine pitch)• Slow down PSD miniaturization and over engineering costs• Eliminate over-engineering process• Improve sustainability technology covers all printing requirements • Compatible Jetting and dispensing platforms• Compatible with adjacent technologies

    For more detailed information on handling LOCTITE GC 50, please refer to the Handling Guidelines document.

    LOCTITE GC 50 Solder PasteHandling, Viscosity and Deposition

    Storage: It is recommended that LOCTITE GC 50 solder paste is stored below 25oC (77°F) to guarantee a

    minimum of 6 months shelf life. Storage below this temperature will have no negative effect on the material properties and performance. Storage above 25°C (77°F) may reduce the storage stability of the material.

    LOCTITE GC 50 cartridges should ALWAYS be stored:▪ With tip cap attached (no needle)▪ In a vertical position tip-down (in a rack)

    ▪ Without removal of end cap

    LOCTITE GC 50 cartridges should NOT be stored• Without tip cap• With needle attached

    • In a non-vertical position

    • Without the end cap

    Paste shelf life: 6 months when stored between 5-25°C (41-77°F)

    Handling and Storage

    LOCTITE GC 50 Solder PasteHandling, Viscosity and Deposition

    Paste Life: In most applications the paste should be dispensed completely.

    However partially used cartridges can be resealed and kept in a vertical position, tip-down for up to 2 weeks

    at 20-25°C (68-77°F).

    Working Environment: Maintaining an ambient temperature of between 20-25°C (68-77°F) at a relative humidity of 30 – 60% will ensure consistent performance and work-life of the paste.

    Conditioning: To ensure consistent dispense quality, it is recommended that 10-20mm bead of solder paste

    be manually pressed out. This should be followed by purging in the dispense head until the paste comes out

    of the needle.

    This should be practiced for both unused and correctly stored used cartridges.

    Thinning: The addition of any material to LOCTITE GC 50 solder paste is never recommended

    For more detailed information on handling LOCTITE GC 50, please refer to the Handling Guidelines document.
