Base Metal Layer Design Considerations

The adjacent graph depicts the CTE of the base material in relationship
to the heat spreading capability of the metal. Although Aluminum and
Copper are the most popular base layers used in Thermal Clad, other
metals and composites have been used in applications where CTE mis-
match is a factor. The adjacent table represents standard and non-stan-
dard base layers.

Coefficient Of Thermal Expansion
And Solder Joints
Solder joint fatigue can be minimized by selecting the correct base
layer to match component expansion. The major concern with ther-
mal expansion is the stress the solder joint experiences in power (or
thermal) cycling. Solder joints are not mechanically rigid. Stress
induced by heating and cooling may cause the joint to fatigue as it
relieves stress. Large devices, extreme temperature differential, badly
mismatched materials, or lead-free minimum solder thickness may all
place increased cyclic strain on solder joints.
Solder joint fatigue is typically first associated with ceramic based
components and with device termination. The section on “Assembly
Recommendations” (page 18-19) covers these issues in more detail.
