Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrical apparatus includes a first electrical component; a second electrical component; and an In—Sn—Ag alloy connecting the first electrical component and the second electrical component, the In—Sn—Ag alloy containing AgIn 2 and Ag 2 In, a Ag 2 In content being lower than a AgIn 2 content.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An electrical An apparatus, comprising: a first electrical component; a second electrical component; and an In—Sn—Ag alloy connecting the first electrical component and the second electrical component, the In—Sn—Ag alloy containing AgIn 2 and Ag 2 In, a Ag 2 In content being lower than a AgIn 2 content. 2. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising: a first electrode provided at the first electrical component; and a second electrode provided at the second electrical component, the In—Sn—Ag alloy connecting the first electrode and the second electrode. 3. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the In—Sn—Ag alloy contains not less than 43% by weight and not more than 60% by weight In. 4. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the In—Sn—Ag alloy contains not more than 3% by weight Ag. 5. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising: a third electrical component; and an alloy connecting the second electrical component and the third electrical component, the alloy being made of a material different from the In—Sn—Ag alloy. 6. The electrical apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising: a third electrode provided at the third electrical component, the alloy connecting the second electrode and the third electrode. 7. The electrical apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein a melting point of the material different from the In—Sn—Ag alloy is higher than a melting point of the In—Sn—Ag alloy. 8. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrical component is a semiconductor device, and the second electrical component is a circuit board. 9. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrical component is a semiconductor device, and the second electrical component is a package substrate. 10. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrical component is a semiconductor device, and the second electrical component is an interposer. 11. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrical component is a package substrate, and the second electrical component is a circuit board. 12. The electrical apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrical component is an interposer, and the second electrical component is a package substrate. 13. The electrical apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the third electrical component is a circuit board. 14. The electrical apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the third electrical component is a circuit board. 15. The electrical apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the third electrical component is a circuit board. 16. The electrical apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the third electrical component is a package substrate. 17. The electrical apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the third electrical component is a package substrate.
