[0002] The existing solder paste jet printing technology is a new solder paste coating technology without steel mesh, and it has practical value in the production of military electronic products due to its convenience and flexibility. The solder paste jet printing technology is a non-contact solder paste coating technology, which has the advantages of no pressure generated during the spraying process, strong precision control, high material utilization rate, etc., and can select different jet printing process parameters according to the pads, thereby solving the coating quality problems caused by the mixed coating of different pad size components.
[0003] However, due to the difference between the solder paste jet printing technology and the traditional steel mesh printing technology, there is a great gap in the appearance of the solder joints formed by coating, which greatly affects the detection of the solder paste coating result. When using the traditional SPI detection specification of steel mesh printing to detect the quality of jet printing solder paste, the false positive rate and the false negative rate are significantly increased, and the detection result is greatly different from the actual situation. At present, there is no SPI detection equipment specially used for detecting the quality of solder paste jet printing on the market, so how to optimize the traditional SPI detection threshold value to meet the new type of solder paste jet printing technology is particularly important.

[0024] As shown in Figure 1 , the present embodiment provides an SPI-based tin paste jet printing detection threshold acquisition method, which greatly improves the accuracy and precision of the detection result compared with the previous process method in the tin paste quality detection process of jet printing, including the following steps:
[0025] Design and sample preparation;
[0026] A sample plate with a flatness of ≤0.05mm is designed, and the sample plate material is aluminum alloy. The packaging form of the device to be verified is selected, and the device packaging list is shown in Table 1, a total of 10 different types of resistor-capacitors. A PCB with a material of FR-4 and a thickness of 1.6mm~2.0mm is designed, and the PCB pad size design is shown in Figure 2 , and the surface treatment process is lead-free tin spraying.
[0027] The tin paste jet printing process parameters are formulated, the tin paste model selected for jet printing is Sn63Pb37, the metal particle diameter range is 15-25 μm. The jet printing diameter range of the tin paste jet printing machine, equipment is 0.33-0.52 mm, and the jet printing height is 1000 μm. The jet printing process parameters are preset area ratio, preset volume ratio, and the jet printing process parameters are as follows:

[0029]
[0030] Jet printing process parameters
[0031] The SPI detection equipment collects steel mesh printing technology related data;
[0032] The tin paste printer is used to perform 0.12 mm thickness steel mesh printing on an aluminum alloy sample plate. After printing, the tin paste printing amount is detected by the SPI detection equipment, and 2500 groups of tin paste thickness, area ratio (tin paste actual area / PCB pad area), volume ratio (tin paste actual volume / (PCB pad area x steel mesh thickness)) and other related data are collected. The tin paste printing thickness average is 116.63 μm, the area ratio average is 112.91%, and the volume ratio average is 109.81%.
[0033] Through equivalent transformation formula, the tin paste jet printing related target parameters are calculated;
[0034] In order to facilitate the comparison of the tin paste amount of jet printing and printing, the tin paste volume ratio is used as a reference, and according to the equivalent transformation formula (1), the tin paste jet printing target volume ratio (V) is calculated as 114.91%.
[0035] Formula (1)
[0036] Among them, The steel mesh printed tin paste volume ratio obtained in step S12 is 109.81%;
[0037] The tin paste metal component ratio for printing is 90%;
[0038] The tin paste metal component ratio for jet printing is 86%.
[0039] Through mathematical analysis and calculation, different packaging device tin paste jet printing process parameters are obtained;
[0040] According to the solder paste jet printing process parameters designed in step S1, different jet printing process parameters are completed, and after jet printing, the volume ratio data of the jet printing body is collected through SPI to obtain the fitting curve and fitting formula of the relationship between the preset volume ratio ( ) and the actual volume ratio ( ), such as Figure 3 . Through the fitting formula, the theoretical preset volume ratio ( ) is calculated when the jet printing target volume ratio ( ) is 114.91%. The theoretical preset volume ratio is rounded to form the actual preset volume ratio ( ). The actual preset volume ratio is used for jet printing again, and the actual volume ratio ( ) is obtained. Finally, the actual volume ratio ( ) and the solder paste jet printing target volume ratio ( ) are compared. If there is a difference, the actual preset volume ratio ( ) is adjusted, and after adjustment, the jet printing operation is performed again until the adjusted actual volume ratio ( ) is close to the solder paste jet printing target volume ratio ( ), and finally the solder paste jet printing preset volume ratio ( ) is obtained.
[0041] Different packaging device jet printing preset volume ratio setting
[0042] Obtain the SPI detection threshold of solder paste jet printing;
[0043] Repeat the test using the solder paste jet printing preset volume ratio ( ), and obtain the mean and standard deviation of the jet printing thickness, area ratio, and volume ratio, as shown in the following table. It can be seen that the thickness mean is about 150 μm, the area ratio mean is about 90%, and the volume ratio mean is about 115%, so the corresponding detection thickness, area ratio, and volume ratio parameters of SPI are 150 μm, 90%, and 115%. For the upper and lower control lines of the SPI detection parameters, we consider using ±3σ as the key control line, but in the actual production process, the solder joint jet printing appearance will be affected by many factors such as temperature, humidity, solder paste type, solder paste viscosity, pad design, PCB flatness, etc. Therefore, when setting the SPI detection threshold, in addition to considering the standard deviation, the detection threshold range also needs to be adjusted according to the actual product and production experience, and the SPI detection threshold parameter results are as follows:

[0049] The detection threshold acquisition method described in this embodiment solves the problem that when using the traditional SPI detection specification printed by stencil to detect the quality of inkjet solder paste, the false alarm rate and false negative rate are significantly increased, and the detection results differ greatly from the actual situation.

Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description.
