2Expert Interpretation
Comprehensive analysis of the high reliability welding technical requirements for surface and hybrid mounted printed circuit board assemblies in the QJ3086A-2016 standard, covering process flow, material selection, equipment specifications and inspection methods, which is applicable to welding quality control of aerospace electronic products.
Standard Evolution and Technology Upgrade
QJ3086A-2016, as the core standard for welding processes in the aerospace industry, has undergone 8 major revisions compared to the 1999 version: adding mixed installation selection principles, improving welding requirements for new packaging devices, introducing a reliability verification system, etc., reflecting the ultimate pursuit of process reliability by aerospace electronic equipment.
Key points of process control
| Control dimension | Surface mounting | Mixed mounting |
|---|---|---|
| Installation sequence | Single-sided/double-sided mounting | Surface mounting first, then through hole |
| Temperature control | 220-250℃ reflow | Dual process temperature coordination |
| Stress management | Thermal expansion coefficient matching | Dual control of mechanical + thermal stress |
Typical application cases
When a satellite control system used BGA packaged devices, it strictly followed the standard 4.1.3 to reserve 5mm of rework space, and used X-ray inspection to ensure that the solder ball offset was less than 15%, and successfully passed 200 -50~100℃ temperature cycle verifications.
Material selection specifications
- Solder: Sn63PbAA eutectic solder is preferred, and silver-containing devices use Sn62Pb36Ag2
- Flux: Rosin-based (R type) or medium-active rosin-based (RMA type)
- Cleaning agent: Non-corrosive solvents such as anhydrous ethanol and isopropyl alcohol
Reliability verification system
The standard innovatively establishes a three-level verification mechanism:
- Vibration test: sinusoidal vibration 5-2000Hz/20g, random vibration 7.1Grms
- Temperature cycle: -50~100℃/200 cycles
- Destructive analysis: Metallographic inspection crack area ≤25%
Implementation suggestions
Process optimization direction
1. For QFP devices, it is recommended that the lead forming angle be controlled at 45-90°, and the bending radius be ≥ the lead diameter
2. Adopt a step-by-step temperature curve management: preheating zone (120-150°C), insulation zone (150-180°C), reflow zone (220-250°C), cooling zone (<100°C)
3. Establish a solder paste thickness control matrix:
| Lead spacing (mm) | Stencil thickness (mm) |
|---|---|
| ≥0.65 | 0.15-0.20 |
| 0.5-0.65 | 0.10-0.15 |
| <0.5 | 0.05-0.10 |
