Abstract:
First, an aqueous solution (103) containing an oxide film remover is disposed on a junction region of a first metal plate (101). Then, with the aqueous solution (103) remaining on the first metal plate (101), a second metal plate (102) is placed on the first metal plate (101). Thereafter, a load is applied to junction regions of the first metal plate (101) and the second metal plate (102) in the vertical direction, thereby joining the first metal plate (101) and the second metal plate (102) together to form a junction portion (110). In this manner, a joined body is manufactured.
Abstract:
A method for treating a metal surface to reduce corrosion thereon and/or to increase the reflectance of the treated surface, the method comprising a) plating a metal surface with an electroless nickel plating solution; and thereafter b) immersion plating silver on the electroless nickel plated surface, whereby corrosion of the metal surface is substantially prevented and/or the reflectance of the silver plated surface is substantially improved. The treating method is useful for increasing the solderability of the metal surface, for example, in electronic packaging applications.
Abstract:
Flux formulations that remain pliable after deposition are disclosed. In certain examples, the flux comprises a first component and an effective amount of a second component to provide a pliable flux after deposition. The flux may also include activators, plasticizers and the like.
Abstract:
In the disclosed method for manufacturing a semiconductor module (100), a metal layer (20) and a cooler (30), which have different coefficients of thermal expansion from each other, are joined into a single unit via an insulating resin sheet (40). A work (1), comprising a semiconductor element (10) placed on the metal layer (20) with solder (15) interposed therebetween, is fed into a reflow furnace (200). The work, in that state, is heated in the reflow furnace (200), thereby mounting the semiconductor element (10) to the metal layer (20). The heating is carried out such that the temperature of the cooler (30) and the temperature of the metal layer (20) differ by an amount that make the cooler (30) and the metal layer (20) undergo the same amount of thermal expansion as each other.
Abstract:
A printed wiring board (1) has a solder-land group (5, 6) for placing a quad flat package IC (3), and the solder-land group (5, 6) consists of front solder-land groups (5) and rear solder-land groups (6). The printed wiring board 1 includes rear solder-drawing lands (9) that are positioned adjacent to rear solder-land groups (6), that have front edges each of which is substantially parallel to a longitudinal direction of rear solder lands (6a, 6b) constituting the rear solder-land group (6) and has a length approximately equal to or longer than that of the solder lands in the longitudinal direction, that are separated into two parts in a horizontal direction with respect to a traveling direction of solder flow such that a gap between the respective two separate lands (9) is made wider in its rearward portion than that in its frontward portion, and that have a slit (9a) substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction near the front edge.
