Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic packaging, and particularly to a micro-solder joint thermal migration device based on the Peltier effect and a testing method therefor. Background Art

[0002] As the electronic packaging system continues to develop towards miniaturization, high performance, and high reliability, the increasing number of transistors and the continuous reduction of solder joint size have made the impact of thermal migration problems on solder joint reliability increasingly prominent. Thermal migration refers to the phenomenon that atoms migrate directionally under the drive of a temperature gradient in the presence of a temperature difference. In an electronic packaging system, the main reasons for forming a temperature gradient at both ends of a solder joint include: 1) When an electronic product is working, the Joule heat generated by transistors on the chip side is greater than the Joule heat generated by the substrate, thus forming a temperature gradient at both ends of the solder joint; 2) Due to the different resistivity and size of each part of the material, the Joule heat generated by the chip during operation is unevenly distributed, forming a temperature gradient at both ends of the solder joint; 3) When the current density passes through the solder joint, due to the influence of structural factors, etc., the current density distribution will be uneven, resulting in uneven distribution of Joule heat, causing a large temperature gradient to form on both sides of the solder joint. Research has confirmed that thermal migration will cause voids at the hot end of the solder joint, leading to solder joint failure.

[0003] In the related research on the problem of solder joint thermal migration failure, how to obtain a relatively high and stable temperature gradient and conduct thermal migration testing has always been a concern for researchers. Currently, some researchers use the method of water cooling one end of the solder joint and not performing any treatment on the other end to form a certain temperature gradient. However, the structure of water cooling is complex, with a large volume, and the formed temperature gradient is not easy to control. There are also researchers who heat using a ceramic heating sheet, monitor the temperature of the ceramic heating sheet with a thermocouple and feedback it to a temperature controller, and the temperature controller controls the temperature of the ceramic heating sheet according to the feedback temperature to form a temperature difference. However, the temperature difference between the two ends of the solder joint generated by this method is small, and the formed temperature gradient is relatively small. In addition, existing thermal migration devices usually include: a heating structure, a lower heat conduction plate, a specimen, an upper heat conduction plate, and a cooling structure. These thermal migration devices often have certain drawbacks: 1) The volume of the heating mechanism and the cooling mechanism is large, and the structure is relatively complex, increasing the volume of the thermal migration device; 2) The position for placing the specimen between the heating structure and the cooling structure is not easy to adjust, and it will no longer be suitable for the height of other solder joints after the device is installed; 3) It is inconvenient to fixedly install the thermal migration device, and the non-fixed device is likely to cause problems such as inaccurate positioning and inconvenient use.

[0004] The Peltier effect refers to the phenomenon that when an electric current passes through a loop composed of different conductors, in addition to the irreversible Joule heat generated, at the joints of different conductors, heat absorption and heat release phenomena will occur respectively depending on the direction of the current. According to the Peltier effect, when an electric current is applied to a conductor, a temperature difference will be generated at both ends of the conductor, thereby forming a temperature gradient at both ends of the solder joint. Utilizing the Peltier effect to obtain the temperature gradient at both ends of the solder joint can avoid using a large-sized heating or cooling structure. Summary of the Invention

[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 11 , the present invention provides a micro-solder joint heat migration device based on the Peltier effect, including a heating structure 1, a cooling structure 2, a specimen 3 and a reinforcement plate assembly. The heating structure 1 and the cooling structure 2 are arranged up and down, the heating structure 1 is located below the cooling structure 2, the specimen 3 is arranged between the heating structure 1 and the cooling structure 2, and the reinforcement plate assembly clamps the heating structure 1 and the cooling structure 2 from the upper and lower sides respectively;

The connecting bolts 70 are also copper bolts with heat conduction performance, which helps with heat conduction while playing a positioning role.

[0043] Further, the heating structure 1 includes a first heating substrate 11, a second heating substrate 12, a third heating substrate 13, a plurality of P-type semiconductor heating plates 14, and a plurality of N-type semiconductor heating plates 16. The first heating substrate 11, the second heating substrate 12, and the third heating substrate 13 are arranged opposite to each other in pairs. The first heating substrate 11 is located above the second heating substrate 12, and the third heating substrate 13 is located below the second heating substrate 12. The gaps between the second heating substrate 12 and the first heating substrate 11 and the third heating substrate 13 are equal. The P-type semiconductor heating plates 14 and the N-type semiconductor heating plates 16 are arranged in the gaps, and the numbers of the P-type semiconductor heating plates 14 and the N-type semiconductor heating plates 16 in the gaps are adapted. A copper wiring 15 for the heating plate is provided between each pair of the P-type semiconductor heating plates 14 and the N-type semiconductor heating plates 16.

[0044] In this embodiment, a plurality of pairs of the P-type semiconductor cooling plates 14 and the N-type semiconductor cooling plates 16 are provided in the gaps between the first cooling substrate 21, the second cooling substrate 22, and the third cooling substrate 23. The P-type semiconductor cooling plates 14, the N-type semiconductor cooling plates 16, and the copper wiring 25 for the cooling plate form a pair of cooling plate thermocouples. The current direction of the cooling plate thermocouple is from the P-type semiconductor cooling plate 14 to the N-type semiconductor cooling plate 16. The lower end of the cooling structure 2 absorbs heat, and the upper end dissipates heat to form a hot end; a plurality of pairs of cooling plate thermocouples are stacked to form an array, increasing the temperature of the cooling structure 2 and obtaining a larger temperature difference value.

[0045] Further, the cooling structure 2 includes a first cooling substrate 21, a second cooling substrate 22, a third cooling substrate 23, a plurality of P-type semiconductor cooling plates 24, and a plurality of N-type semiconductor cooling plates 26.

The P-type semiconductor cooling plates 24 and the N-type semiconductor cooling plates 26 are arranged in the gaps, and the numbers of the P-type semiconductor cooling plates 24 and the N-type semiconductor cooling plates 26 in the gaps are adapted. A copper wiring 25 for the cooling plate is provided between each pair of the P-type semiconductor cooling plates 24 and the N-type semiconductor cooling plates 26.

[0046] In this embodiment, several pairs of P-type semiconductor 24 and N-type semiconductor 26 of the cooling plate are arranged in the gap between the first cooling substrate 21, the second cooling substrate 22 and the third cooling substrate 23. The P-type semiconductor 24 of the cooling plate, the N-type semiconductor 26 of the cooling plate and the copper wiring 25 of the cooling plate form a pair of thermocouples of the cooling plate. The current direction of the thermocouple of the cooling plate is from the P-type semiconductor 24 of the cooling plate to the N-type semiconductor 26 of the cooling plate. The upper end of the cooling structure 2 dissipates heat, and the lower end absorbs heat to form a cold end; by superimposing several pairs of thermocouples of the cooling plate to form an array, the temperature of the cooling structure 2 can be reduced to a lower level, so as to obtain a larger temperature difference value.

[0047] Further, by superimposing two or more layers of thermocouple arrays of heating plates or cooling plates, the temperature difference between the hot and cold ends can be increased. The temperature difference ΔT at both ends of the specimen 3 can reach 68°C to 95°C. According to the temperature gradient calculation formula: grad T = ΔT / h (where h is the thickness of the specimen 3), the temperature gradient at both ends of the specimen 3 can be calculated.

[0048] Further, the materials of the P-type semiconductor and the N-type semiconductor are both ternary solid solution alloys based on bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3); preferably, the material of the P-type semiconductor is Bi2Te3-Sb2Te3; the material of the N-type semiconductor is Bi2Te3-Bi2Se3.

The solder joints 34 are arranged between the first PCB board 31 and the second PCB board 32. Several solder joints 34 are arranged in an array. Copper wirings 33 are arranged on both the first PCB board 31 and the second PCB board 32. The several solder joints 34 are connected by the copper wirings 33 to form a conductive loop.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first PCB board 31 and the second PCB board 32 have the same size. The first PCB board 31 and the second PCB board 32 are overlapped. The first PCB board 31 is located above the second PCB board 32. Several solder joints 34 are arrayed between the first PCB board 31 and the second PCB board 32. The solder of the solder joints 34 is selected from leaded solder or lead-free solder in binary alloy or multi-alloy to detect the thermal migration performance of different micro-solder joints. The first PCB board 31, the second PCB board 32, the solder joints 34 and the copper wirings 33 are connected to form an electric current loop. The specimen 3 can be tested with or without power supply. After the specimen 3 is powered on, micro-solder joint electromigration test can be carried out, and then the influence of current load on micro-solder joint thermal migration can be evaluated.

[0051] Further, the heat generating structure 1 and the refrigerating structure 2 are connected by a wire 4.

[0052] In this embodiment, the wire 4 connects the circuits between the heat generating structure 1 and the refrigerating structure 2, forming a closed loop within the Peltier effect-based micro-solder joint heat migration device. When direct current is connected, the power supply flows in from the positive pole, passes through each layer of thermocouple arrays, and then flows out from the negative pole. The heat generating structure 1 and the refrigerating structure 2 are of matching size and the same size, and are arranged correspondingly in structure, with a simple design and easy installation.

[0053] Further, a thermal grease 6 is coated on the contact surface between the first heat generating substrate 11 and the first metal plate 8, a thermal grease 6 is coated on the contact surface between the third refrigerating substrate 23 and the second metal plate 5, and a thermal grease 6 is coated on the contact surfaces of the specimen 3 with the heat generating structure 1 and the refrigerating structure 2.

[0055] Further, the first heat generating substrate 11, the second heat generating substrate 12, the third heat generating substrate 13, the first refrigerating substrate 21, the second refrigerating substrate 22, and the third refrigerating substrate 23 adopt direct plate copper (DPC) ceramic substrates, and their material is alumina. The sizes of the ceramic substrates are 40mm×40mm×1mm and 30mm×30mm×1mm.
