Three-Dimensional Stress Singularity Analysis Around the Solder Joints in Electronic Packaging Using Eigen Analysis

Electronic packaging has several kinds of joint structures of metal, ceramic and polymer. It is well known that the stress singularity occurs at the vertex of joint where the dissimilar materials are bonded together. In this paper, the model in the first analysis is an electronic package using surface mount technology (SMT), the order of stress singularity is investigated, when the mechanical properties of solder, adhesive and resin vary for several values of contact angles between the solder with the chip and with a Cu land. Furthermore, the model in the second analysis is a Flip-Chip-on-Board packaging (FCOB), in which the order of stress singularity at the solder bump is investigated varying the mechanical properties of solder, underfill and the contact angle between the solder bump with a Cu track. After that, the displacement and stress fields for several values of the order of stress singularity are calculated by solving an eigen equation.
