Abstract

A thermodynamic tool, ADAMIS, has been developed for designing alloys for micro-soldering. It combines phase diagram calculation software with a thermodynamic database for Ag, Bi, Cu, In, Sb, Sn, Zn and Pb. The thermodynamic parameters describing Gibbs energies of the different phases in the database have been evaluated by optimizing experimental data for phase equilibria and thermodynamic properties. Using this tool, a user can easily calculate properties such as the liquidus projection, isothermal and vertical sectional diagrams and phase fraction. In addition, the tool provides other related information such as the surface tension, viscosity of the liquid phase and solidification simulation. This tool is expected to play an important role in alloy design of the solders used in the packaging of electronic devices.
