Effect of reflow soldering process on metallurgical bonding between Sn3.5Ag solder and ENIG substrates

Reflow soldering process is one of the important steps in the manufacturing process for ball grid arrays. The purpose of this study is to observe the metallurgical bonding between Sn3.5Ag solder ball and electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) substrates after reflow soldering process. The reflow s...
