Abstract

The phenomena of electromigration in solder joints under high direct-current density for microelectronic packaging and power electronics packaging was studied. It is observed that the current density will increase further as chip voltage decreases and absolute current levels increase. During the experiments failure modes resulted from joule heating and a lack of cooling in the specimen. It was found that the thermomigration dominated the failure process significantly.
