CHAPTER 5 SOLDER JOINT RELIABILITY


5.4 Single-sided Soldering and Double-sided Soldering

The results of performing single-side and double-side shifted mounting and then comparing the temperature cycle characteristics are shown below. These results show that type IV, under which the package mounted on the bottom side is shifted by an amount equal to its entire width, yields almost the same temperature cycle characteristics as single-side soldering.
When designing the printed wiring board, find ways not to place another package immediately under the target product.

Double-sided soldering evaluation

Type I Type II Type III Type IV
Type I
Mounted at same position



Type II
Chip edge of bottom CSP aligned to center of top CSP

Type III
Chip edge of bottom CSP aligned to chip edge of top CSP

Type IV
Edge of balls of bottom CSP shifted 1 pitch outward from edge of balls of top CSP
