Characterization and corrosion behaviour of 96.5Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder on Cu substrate at different reflow reactions

96.5Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC305) thin film solder exhibits different surface characteristics if compared to conventional bulk solder. In thin film solder, the actual surface is comprised of intermetallic layers whereas in the case of conventional solder, the intermetallic layers happened at the interfaci...
