Presently there are two types of components available in the Electronic Industries; they are 1. Surface-mounted Devices 2. Leaded components (through-hole components). Surface-mounted components can be assembled at first speed due to automation in the mounting and reflow soldering process. But the speed at which leaded components are mounted and soldered is not that fast. Hence there is always a challenge to match the production rate of PCB having led and surface mounted devices.

this paper introduced the important soldering interconnect technology in SMT. In electric product manufacturing process, sometime we must place components in through-hole ways , then we use wave soldering. Wave soldering is used for both through-hole printed circuit assemblies, and surface mount. As technology changing very soon, the through-hole components have been largely replaced by surface mount components, this time ,Reflow soldering is the most common method of attaching surface mount components to a circuit board,but not wave soldering also reflowing, we must focus on wetting , It quantifies the wettability of a solid surface by a liquid .wetting angle is a the important quantity (also called contact angle).it can judge the quality of solder joints.

Improve Reliability

As early as the 1990s people were predicting the end of through-hole components, but they are alive and well with the numbers of dual in-line packages (DIPs) and connectors still measured in the 10s of billions per year. Many of these components are assembled by wave soldering, however in mixed technology (SMT and through-hole on the same board) where the through-hole count is low, it is often advantageous to consider selective soldering or the pin-in-paste process (PIP). PIP is a process in which solder paste is printed over or near the PWB through-holes. The through-hole components are then placed and the solder joint is formed during the reflow process. PIP has the advantage of eliminating the wave soldering process step. In many cases it is difficult to print enough solder paste to make an acceptable through-hole solder joint. Solder preforms were developed to meet this need. These solder preforms are typically shaped in the form of 0402, 0603, or 0805 passive components. The preforms are placed on the appropriate printed solder paste deposit by a component placement machine. Preforms come in tape & reel packaging. Today solder preforms are also used in other “solder starved” applications such as radio frequency (RF) shields, connectors, and under QFN thermal pads. In all cases, the extra solder delivered by the preform is vital to the reliability of the assembled product. In this paper, process, design, and assembly methods for solder fortification using preforms will be discussed. Four successful solder fortification examples will be presented along with the associated defect reductions.

An effective simulation approach is introduced in this paper to study the thermal fluid-structure interaction (thermal FSI) on the effect of pin-through-hole (PTH) diameter on the wave soldering zone. A 3D single PTH connector and a printed circuit board model were constructed to investigate the capillary flow behavior when passing through molten solder (63SnPb37). In the analysis, the fluid solver FLUENT was used to solve and track the molten solder advancement using the volume of fluid technique. The structural solver ABAQUS was used to examine the von Mises stress and displacement of the PTH connector in the wave soldering process. Both solvers were coupled by MpCCI software. The effects of six different diameter ratios (0.1 < d/ D < 0.97) were studied through a simulation modeling. The use of ratio d/ D = 0.2 yielded a balanced filling profile and low thermal stress. Results revealed that filling level, temperature, and displacement exhibited polynomial behavior to d/ D. Stress of pin varied quadratically with the d/ D. The predicted molten solder profile was validated by experimental results. The simulation results are expected to provide better visualization and understanding of the wave soldering process by considering the aspects of thermal FSI.

Wave soldering is mainly used in electronic assembling process of traditional through-hole cartridge printed-circuit board and hybrid packaged process combining surface mounting with through-hole cartridge components. Compared with manual welding, wave soldering has advantages of high productive efficiency, good welding quality and high reliability. Wave soldering process is a complex and systematic project. During the practical productive process, flux coating quantity, preheat temperature of printed board, soldering temperature and time, uphill height of printed board and peak height should be strictly controlled and its process parameter should be comprehensively regulated in order to achieve better soldering quality.

During a typical wave soldering operation a plated through hole (PTH) is exposed to temperatures which are higher than any rated operating temperatures. Understanding the heat transfer and the potential PTH damage mechanisms, which arise during the wave soldering process, is critical to PTH quality control and reliability. In particular, cracks may be initiated during the wave soldering transient and become manifest only after operational cycling. This paper presents a transient nonlinear thermal stress analysis of a nonsolder filled PTH that is subjected to a typical wave soldering process. A full three-dimensional orthotropic analysis and an axisymmetric analysis with cylindrically anisotropic properties are used and the results compared. Temperature and stress/strain history curves are examined to determine the impact of the wave soldering operation on the PTH fatigue life. The effect of PWB innerplanes on the PTH maximum stress and strain is also investigated.

Delamination between mold compound and leadframe is found in a customized LED through-hole package. The delamination was initiated near the die paddle location under moisture condition. Subsequently, the delamination propagates throughout the package during the wave soldering process. An adhesion test has been performed to identify the mechanism of the delamination and to determine the adhesion shear strength between leadframe and mold compound. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is conducted to analyze the thermal stress distribution at room temperature and the temperature distribution of package during wave soldering process. The delamination between leadframe and mold compound is initiated under moisture condition if the maximum-shear-stress for the package exceeds the measured adhesion shear strength. It is found that the package is at high risk of delamination if the temperature near the die paddle is higher than the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the mold compound. Parametric study has been performed to identify the controlling leadframe parameters that contribute to the thermal stress at room temperature and the temperature of the package during wave soldering process. The leadframe has been optimized based on the findings and the delamination has been minimized.
