Abstract :
This paper presents the evaluation results on the lead-free eutectic Sn-Ag solder for use in automotive electronics packaging applications. The major areas of study are the metallurgical interactions between the solder, the conductor, and the component termination, and their impact on reliability. Studies have been conducted with the eutectic Sn/Pb solder as a control group for comparison
