    Abstract: A lead free solder hierarchy for use in the second level solder connection of electronic components such as joining an electronic module to a circuit board. An off-eutectic solder concentration of SnCu or SnAg is used for the module side connection. This off-eutectic solder contains sufficient intermetallics to provide the module side connection with a robust second level assembly and rework process. The off-eutectic composition provides an inter-metallic phase structure in the module side fillet during assembly. The inter-metallic phase structure eliminates problems of tilt and collapse during second level assembly and aids in rework by providing a more cohesive joint allowing removal of the columns from the board without simultaneous removal from the module.
