Abstract
Skin effect of lead-free solder joints is investigated over a wide frequency band. Contrary to common believe that 'effective impedance of solder alloys increases with frequency', resistance tends to saturate when frequency reaches a critical value, 10 MHz for SAC solder alloys. Negative surface impedance growth rate is observed when employs square waveform AC current loading at high current density. Further increased frequency causes a dramatic reduction of effective resistance. At 11 MHz with current density of 106 A/cm 2, effective resistance of solder alloy drops to near zero value.
