Abstract

Through silicon via (TSV) is a kind of three-dimensional (3D) packaging technology with great development potential, which can realize short distance electrical interconnection. Currently, there were few related studies on filling or thermal reliability of SAC305-TSV. Because of its thermal expansion coefficient and other physical property parameters do not match with other materials involved in TSV and the crystal structure characteristics of Sn, SAC305-TSV has service reliability problems under the action of thermal load. In this paper, by adding different contents of SiC nanoparticles to SAC305, the performance of SAC305 was improved, and the composite solder with better comprehensive performance was obtained. Besides, the thermal reliability of TSV filled with composite solder was analyzed by thermal shock and aging test with SEM and EBSD.
