a lead-free electroplating process, and more particularly to a process for forming a tin-containing plating layer by using a lead-free electroplating method and avoiding the generation of whiskers. The plating process is a process widely used in many electronic products, including plating in the manufacture of carriers in semiconductor packages, or plating in the manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs). For example, the surface of the leadframe is often electroplated to improve its bondability, moldability and solderability, or tin-lead alloy plating on the contacts of the printed circuit board to prevent copper Oxidation and facilitate subsequent welding. Among them, electroplating of welding metal is a frequently used process, which can improve the jointability during welding and improve the reliability of solder joints, and tin-lead alloy is the most common solder layer material. However, due to the rise of environmental awareness in various countries around the world, it has caused a great impact on the electroplating industry, especially the tin-lead electroplating process containing heavy metal lead. The plating process of heavy metals with high pollution will be strictly controlled in the future. Therefore, lead-free electronic products will be the product trend of the future. Welding metal materials including tin-lead alloys include tin alloys, tin-copper alloys, tin-silver alloys, and pure tin temples, and lead-free plating processes are used. However, in the conventional process of lead free plating, tin whiskers are often generated, which leads to unexpected short circuits. The main reason is that the internal stress between the plating layers causes the tin to grow in a specific direction during the plating process. Tin whisker. Although the addition of a small amount of non-tin metal in the plating solution can suppress the growth of tin whiskers, the lead-free plating process has less plating 6673tvvfl.doc / 008 5 | _ tin composition is still unstable, so it is still not complete Avoid tin whiskers. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a lead-free plating process' to form a lead-free and tin-containing plating layer. Another object of the present invention is to provide a lead-free electroplating process to avoid the generation of tin whiskers and improve the yield of electroplated electronic products. In order to achieve the above and other objectives of the present invention, a lead-free electrical process is proposed. The steps include: providing a substrate and flash-plating a layer on the surface of the substrate. Next, a lead-free electroplating process is performed to form a plating layer containing tin. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the substrate includes a lead frame made of _ or a copper alloy; and the tin-containing coating material includes tin-bismuth alloy, tin-copper alloy, tin-silver alloy, or pure tin. As for the electroplating solution of flash-plated pure copper, a mixed solution of copper sulfate, copper pyrophosphate and copper hydroxide. For electroplated tin-bismuth alloys, the electroplating solution contains methanesulfonic acid, tin ions, and bismuth ions; for electroplated pure tin, the electroplating solution contains methanesulfonic acid and tin ions; and for electroplated tin-copper alloys, the electroplating solution contains formazan. Sulfonic acid, tin ion and copper ion. Before the electroless plating, a layer of pure copper is flashed on the surface of the substrate, which can provide a softer surface, which can reduce or release the internal stress between the plating layers, so that the subsequent lead-free electroplating process can avoid the generation of tin whiskers. In order to make the above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, a preferred embodiment is given below and described in detail with the accompanying drawings' as follows: Brief description of the drawings: Figure 1 Illustrate a conventional packaging process using a lead frame as a carrier. 6736twfl .doc / 008 6 541362 FIG. 2 shows a flow chart of applying lead-free plating to a semiconductor package according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention.

If the material of the tin-containing ore layer is a tin-copper alloy, the plating solution contains methanesulfonic acid, tin ions, and copper ions. The concentration of methanesulfonic acid is about 100 ~ 200 g / liter (preferably 110 g / liter), and the concentration of tin ion is about 50 ~ 100 g / liter (preferably 70 g / liter), The concentration of copper ions is about ~ 2 g / liter ($ father's good is 0.5 grams / liter), and its plating temperature is about 20 ~ ⑽ ° C ($ father's good is 40 degrees C), and the volume fraction can be added about 6% Additives are used to adjust the plating rate and make the coating surface bright. w Use the above electroplating conditions for the leadframes of the various semiconductor packages listed in Table ~ and perform experiments in a control group, that is, one set of leadframes is not flash-plated with pure copper, and the other set is subjected to lead-free plating. Pure copper = flash plating. The results of the inspection found that the lead frame without pure copper flash plating would produce tin whiskers; and through the process of the present invention, pure copper flash plating before lead-free plating could indeed prevent the generation of tin whiskers. Although the foregoing two embodiments take the electroplating of semiconductor package leadframes in electronic products as an example, when other products are used for lead-free electroplating with a tin plating layer, the lead-free electroplating process of the present invention can be used to improve the problems caused by tin whiskers. Please refer to FIG. 6, which shows a characteristic flowchart of the lead-free plating process of the present invention. For the lead-free electroplating of the tin-containing coating according to the present invention, as shown in the figure, after a substrate is provided (as shown in step 400), a pure copper is flash-plated on the substrate or the substrate is primed with copper (as shown in step) 4〇2). The substrate includes lead frames, printed circuit boards, package substrates, or semiconductor package contacts. Next, the lead-free plating of the tin-containing plating layer is performed, and the soft characteristics of the pure copper plating layer make it possible to avoid the occurrence of tin whiskers during lead-free plating, reduce the occurrence of short circuits, and improve product yield. 6736twfl .doc / 008 541362 In summary, the lead-free electroplating process proposed by the present invention can meet the needs of future environmental protection and provide a low pollution electroplating process. In addition, a better quality tin-containing coating can be formed, avoiding the generation of tin whiskers, eliminating unnecessary short circuits, and improving product quality. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above with a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications and retouching without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The scope of protection of the invention shall be determined by the scope of the attached patent application. 6736twfl.doc / 008
