Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A solder material capable of suppressing the occurrence of electromigration is provided. The solder material is core ball 1 A which comprises spherical core 2 A composed of Cu or a Cu alloy, and solder layer 3 A coating core 2 A, and wherein solder layer 3 A has: a Cu content of 0.1 mass % or more and 3.0 mass % or less, a Bi content of 0.5 mass % or more and 5.0 mass % or less, a Ag content of 0 mass % or more and 4.5 mass % or less, and a Ni content of 0 mass % or more and 0.1 mass % or less, with Sn being the balance.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A solder material comprising: a core of a metal and, a solder layer coating the core, wherein the solder layer has: a Cu content of 0.1 mass % or more and 3.0 mass % or less, a Bi content of 0.5 mass % or more and 5.0 mass % or less, a Ag content of 0 mass % or more and 4.5 mass % or less, and a Ni content of 0 mass % or more and 0.1 mass % or less, with Sn being the balance. 2 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the solder layer has the Bi content of more than 1.0 mass % and 5.0 mass % or less, and contains no Ag. 3 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the Ag content is more than 1.5 mass % and 4.5 mass % or less. 4 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core is a metal of Cu, Ni, Ag, Au, Al, Mo, Mg, Zn, or Co, or an alloy of any combination of the metal. 5 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core is a spherical core ball. 6 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core is a columnar core column. 7 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core coated with a layer consisting of one or more elements selected from Ni and Co is coated with the solder layer. 8 . A solder paste using the solder material according to claim 1 . 9 . A formed solder using the solder material according to claim 1 . 10 . A solder joint using the solder material according to claim 1 . 11 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core is a spherical core ball and wherein the core coated with a layer consisting of one or more elements selected from Ni and Co is coated with the solder layer. 12 . The solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core is a columnar core column and wherein the core coated with a layer consisting of one or more elements selected from Ni and Co is coated with the solder layer. 13 . A solder joint using the solder material according to claim 1 , wherein the core coated with a layer consisting of one or more elements selected from Ni and Co is coated with the solder layer.
