- the second layer 70 may be a silver alloy in which Sn or Au is added to Ag in addition to the above-described four elements.
- the contact pin 32 and the IC socket 12 described above when the test temperature of the burn-in test is increased, the electrical resistance value between the contact pin 32 and the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 is rapidly increased. It is possible to suppress a decrease in the number of tests. Therefore, the life of the IC socket 12 can be extended as compared with an IC socket provided with a conventional contact pin. The reason will be described.
- the diffusion rate of Sn and the absorbed amount of Sn are extremely high along with Au, but the mechanical strength of the alloy with Sn is high.
- Sn is dissolved and diffused by applying heat to the contact side of the first layer formed of a Pd plating layer much higher than Au, but Ag is a material whose diffusion rate is slower than that of the first layer.
- a second layer formed of the plating layer was further provided. For this reason, the speed at which Sn contained in the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 is melted to the contact pin side becomes slow, and as a result, Ag—Sn alloy and Sn—Pd alloy are gradually formed without being rapidly formed.

- connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 forms an Ag—Sn alloy with Ag of the second layer. This increases the speed at which the second layer of contact pins and the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 are easily attached. Since the thickness of the Ag—Sn alloy also increases, when the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 is peeled off from the contact pin, the Ag of the second layer tends to decrease compared to the case where the test temperature is not increased. Further, when the Ag plating layer of the second layer is deficient, Sn contained in the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 is faster than the Ag of the second layer with the Pd of the first layer.
- a Pd—Ni alloy plating layer whose Sn diffusion rate is lower than Pd is used as the first layer 68 among materials in which Sn melts and diffuses when heat is applied. Forming.
- the alloying speed of Sn and Pd—Ni alloy is slower than the alloying speed of Sn and Pd. Therefore, even when the Ag plating layer of the second layer 70 is deficient, the conventional contact Compared to the pins, the first layer 68 of the contact pin 32 of the present embodiment is less likely to stick to the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10, and the first layer 68 is less likely to decrease.
- the Pd—Ni alloy plating layer can absorb a large amount of Sn like the Pd single plating layer, but has a higher mechanical strength than the Pd single plating layer.
- the Pd—Ni alloy is alloyed with Sn of the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10
- the Pd—Ni alloy of the first layer 68 is peeled off even if the IC package 10 is peeled off from the contact pin 32. Hard to decrease.
- the exposure of Ni as the base layer 64 is delayed, and the number of tests until the electrical resistance value between the contact pin 32 and the connection terminal 30 of the IC package 10 is rapidly increased. Will increase. Therefore, the life of the IC socket 12 can be extended as compared with an IC socket provided with a conventional contact pin.

- the ambient temperature of the IC socket is set to 200 with unused IC packages mounted on a total of eight IC sockets including four conventional IC sockets and four improved IC sockets.
- the temperature was raised to 0 ° C., and this temperature was maintained for 24 hours. After that, the temperature was lowered to room temperature, and the IC package was removed from the IC socket. With this as one cycle, 15 cycles were sequentially performed.
- the electrical resistance value of the contact portion of the contact pin that contacts the connection terminal of the IC package is measured for the contact pin of each IC socket at each stage after 1 cycle, 5 cycles, 10 cycles, and 15 cycles. Went.
- the cross section of the portion corresponding to the first contact portion 42 was observed using a microscope at the stage where 15 cycles were completed.
- the second Ag plating layer is lost, but the first Pd—Ni alloy is lost.
- the Pd—Ni—Sn alloy layer in which Sn is diffused and alloyed in the gold plating layer remains in the entire region corresponding to the first contact portion 42, and Ni in the underlayer is not exposed.
- the thickness of the second Ag plating layer in the improved contact pin is half that of the second Ag plating layer in the conventional contact pin, the remaining amount of the first layer is the improved contact. Since there are more pins, it was predicted that the remaining amount of the first layer in the improved contact pin would be further increased if the second Ag plating layer had the same thickness as the conventional contact pin.
- the open top type IC socket 12 has been described as an example of the electrical component socket to which the IC package 10 is mounted, it is not limited to this.
- other types of sockets such as clamshell type sockets may be used as long as they are IC sockets having electrical contacts.
- contact pin 32 as an electrical contact is applied to the IC socket 12, it may be applied to uses other than the IC socket.
Abstract
Description
従来コンタクトピンが取り付けられているICソケット(以下、「従来ICソケット」という)と、改良コンタクトピンが取り付けられているICソケット(以下、「改良ICソケット」という)とを、夫々、4台ずつ用意した。ICソケットの構成は共通であった。
接続端子がSn-3Ag-0.5Cu合金で形成されているICパッケージを用いた。
試験手順としては、従来ICソケット4台及び改良ICソケット4台の計8台のICソケットに、夫々、未使用のICパッケージを装着した状態で、ICソケットの周囲温度を200℃まで昇温させ、この温度を維持して24時間経過した後、室温まで降温させて、ICソケットからICパッケージを取り外した。これを1サイクルとして、順次、15サイクルを実施した。
バーンイン試験終了後の従来コンタクトピンにおける合金形成の状態については、図8(B)に示すように、第2層のAgメッキ層が失われ、また、第1層のPdメッキ層にSnが拡散して合金化したPd-Sn合金層も局所的には殆ど失われ、下地層のNiが露出している状態である、という結果が得られた。なお、従来コンタクトピンの中には、バーンイン試験が10サイクル終了した段階で下地層のNiが露出したものもあった。
